Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are already cult icons in some circles and that's only going to grow with the release of the hilarious Hot Fuzz. Over the last few months, Simon, Nick, and co-writer/director Edgar Wright have been traveling the country, not only talking to the press but doing Q&As for Hot Fuzz and even hosting action movie festivals to get audiences pumped up here (the "Hot Fuzztival" in Chicago, which UGO helped organize included Point Break, Infernal Affairs, and To Live and Die in L.A.). In a hotel room in downtown Chicago, Simon, Edgar and Nick talked about everything from British cop movies to quintessential popcorn films. Yes, the guys are almost as funny off-the-cuff as they are on the big screen and it's only a matter of time before their talent turns them from cult icons to household names. Join the fuzz!

Hot Fuzz's Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are planning a film which they will shoot on American turf. Paul is "a road movie about two British geeks in America," Pegg told the MYV Movie Blog and will signal a deprature from Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead director Edgar Wright. The two friends are writing the flick, but no director has yet been set for it. Pegg and Frost will, though, still have upcoming collaborations with Wright as well.

Nick Frost (born March 28 1972) is an English actor and comedian most famous for his work with Simon Pegg. Born in Essex, Frost worked as a waiter and had a number of low key acting jobs such as 'Chris Carter and The Coverplan Challenge', a Dixons group sales video, before gaining fame as Tim's Army-obsessed best friend Mike in the groundbreaking British comedy Spaced, which was written by Pegg and Jessica Stevenson and aired on Channel 4 for two series.

In 2007, Frost worked again with Pegg and Wright for their follow-up project, "Hot Fuzz." Inspired by the slew of U.S. action films of the 1990s by such directors as Michael Bay and Tony Scott, the film tells the story of a supercop, Nicholas, played by Pegg, who is so good that he makes the rest of the force look bad by comparison, and is demoted to a backwater division in quiet Gloucestershire. It is there, that he reluctantly partners with a bumbling cop, Danny Butterman, played by Frost. When grisly murders start to happen in the quiet rural town, the two must work together. Like their previous efforts, "Hot Fuzz" effortlessly combined both real action and characters with brilliant comedy. The film fell just short of a spoof, making it another Wright-Pegg-Frost hit with audiences and critics alike on both sides of the Atlantic.
