‘Superbad’ director Greg Mottola takes on ‘Paul’

Big news for all the Pegg/Frost fans out there… Simon Pegg posted this news on his MySpace  page, stating that ‘Superbad’ director Greg Mottola will be directing the new comedy called ‘Paul’ starring Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. The comedic British duo also wrote this new film, which will be their third collaborative effort on a feature film. Their first two feature films were ‘Shaun of the Dead’ and ‘Hot Fuzz’ … both of which were a huge success and really put the two on the map, however it seems Pegg is getting most of the media attention. As I’ve proudly stated before, I’m a huge fan of their work and am eagerly anticipating this new project, especially after reading the short, but sweet synopsis:

[Written by Pegg and Frost, the road movie is about two British comic book geeks that get into an adventure across America.]
