Simon Pegg<\/strong> will be part of Monty Python<\/em>‘s forthcoming sci-fi comedy, Absolutely Anything<\/em>.<\/p>\n

In Absolutely Anything<\/em>, a teacher is given magical powers by a group of aliens.<\/p>\n

Pegg will be taking on the role of Neil Clarke, the school teacher.<\/p>\n

A big fan of Monty Python<\/em>, Pegg is thrilled to be working with them. “As someone whose love of comedy was hugely informed by Monty Python, the chance to work with Terry <\/strong>[Jones<\/strong>] was a gift,” he said. “Meeting your heroes is one thing – working with them is something else.”<\/p>\n

“Simon Pegg is the absolutely perfect Neil,” said Monty Python<\/em>‘s Terry Jones.<\/p>\n

Monty Python<\/em> won’t be appearing live on screen in the movie, but will instead be voicing CG versions of their extraterrestrial aliens.<\/p>\n

Robin Williams<\/strong> will also be in Absolutely Anything<\/em>, as Pegg’s “trusty four-legged sidekick.”<\/p>\n

Production on the movie begins next spring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
