Simon Pegg talks about Paul

A great interview with Simon Pegg about his film with Nick Frost called Paul via Collider.

· Simon says they are about to start rehearsals

· Still casting – says it’s going to be a mix of British and American comedians

· They’re figuring out how to make Paul real – says it’s going to be a mix of practical and CGI

· Simon gives a synopsis about Paul – about 1:25 in

· They’re filming in New Mexico on the 8th of June. It’s a 10 week shoot

· I ask if they’re going to shoot at Comic-Con this summer as part of the movie involves the convention. Right now he doesn’t know. He explains why it is so hard to film there

· I tell Simon that it would be NO problem to get fans to participate for free

· I ask if the characters of Paul could go to a panel about Spaced

· Says Comic-Con is just the beginning of the film and it sets up who these characters are

· Simon talks about how they got a lot of the Spaced fans to be zombies in Shaun of the Dead

· Why has it taken so long to get Paul in front of the cameras

· Simon explains where the idea came from

· How did Greg Mottola get attached to direct it
