- London, Jan 08 (ANI): Hollywood actors Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, who acted together in hit comedy flick Shaun of the Dead, will soon be seen in Steven Spielberg’’s flick, which is an adaptation of classic Tintin comics.
The duo, which made all laugh with their comical antics in flicks like Hot Fuzz, will be cast as a clumsy detective pair Thomson and Thompson in the flick, reports the Daily Express.
But the challenge Spielberg faces is to make the duo look alike, as their characters were depicted as identical twins in the childrens adventure series.
The flick is slated for a 2010 release. (ANI)
