Edgar Wright + Simon Pegg + Nick Frost = the comedy gems of Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz. And now they’re back together for The World’s End, coming to theaters on August 23, 2013 via Focus Features. What appears to start out as a reunion between buddies in which they set off on a pub crawl turns into something much more bizarre…
 
The cast also includes Martin Freeman, Paddy Considine, and Eddie Marsan.
 
The Plot:
 
The third installment of director Edgar Wright’s trilogy of comedies starring Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, following the successes Shaun of the Dead (2004) and Hot Fuzz (2007). In The World’s End, 20 years after attempting an epic pub crawl, five childhood friends reunite when one of them becomes hellbent on trying the drinking marathon again. They are convinced to stage an encore by Gary King (Simon Pegg), a 40-year-old man trapped at the cigarette end of his teens, who drags his reluctant pals to their hometown and once again attempts to reach the fabled pub – The World’s End. As they attempt to reconcile the past and present, they realize the real struggle is for the future, not just theirs but humankind’s. Reaching The World’s End is the least of their worries.
