I should let you know right off that while Universal has this thing going out in the UK on June 8th, there’s no US date yet, so enter with cautious excitement…
In any event, Simon Pegg has starred in a new film project that seems to have really been a chance for him to let loose in a way he hasn’t in some time. Called A Fantastic Fear Of Everything, it’s a bit Gilliam a bit Gondry and a bit Juenet, all coming from music video director Chris Hopewell. Take a look at the trailer, which Pegg debuted on Twitter.
The story of an accidental children’s writer attempting a new crime novel, the film explores the man’s fears that manifest in visually crazy ways that may prevent him from getting through the rest of the day, much less finishing his book. At least, that’s all what I gather!
What are your thoughts? Happy to see unhinged Pegg back in action?

This looks awesome.
You had me at Belloq in a novelty pirate hat.
Wow, this looks so right up my alley. Can’t wait.
I second the awesomeness.
Written and Co-Directed by Crispian Mills – son of Hayley, grandson of John.
And the love interest is Amara Khan, who was Rita in last year’s Doctor Who episode The God Complex. Where she was also fantastic. And fearful.
Anyone know if the version of “I’ll See You In My Dreams” is She & Him. Sounds like Zooey to me but I can’t find it anywhere.
