Nick Frost on the Lovable Psychopaths of ‘Get Away,’ What Sequels or Prequels the Horror Comedy Could Lead to and His Next Project With Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright


Nick Frost discusses his bloody and funny new movie "Get Away" and planning for future projects with Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright.

Nick Frost is the rare star ubiquitous in two genres, having made memorable turns in films both comedic (“Hot Fuzz,” “The World’s End”) and horror (“Shaun of the Dead,” “Attack the Block”). The laughs hit hard and the blood spurts wildly in this tale of the Smith family, led by patriarch Frost, who goes on holiday on a remote island with some dark and deadly secrets. Frost spoke to Variety about wearing different hats when writing, producing and starring in a movie, the key to balancing horror with comedy and reuniting for a project with his longtime best friends, actor Simon Pegg and director Edgar Wright.
