Screen Daily reports that Simon Pegg will star in A Fantastic Fear of Everything, a “psycho comedy” currently shooting at Shepperton Studios in England.
The site says that “Pegg plays a children’s author turned crime novelist whose research into the lives of Victorian serial killers turns him into a paranoid wreck, especially when a Hollywood executive decides he wants to make a film out of his findings.”
Amara Karan, Clare Higgins, Sheridan Smith and Alan Drake co-star in the film, written and directed by Crispian Mills together with co-director and animator Chris Hopewell.
