In spite of the success of Star Trek XI<\/i>, Simon Pegg<\/b> is still low-profile in Tinseltown.<\/p>\n
As reported by California Chronicle<\/a>, Pegg, who is more well-known in the U.K. due to the success of his British sit-com Spaced<\/i>, can laugh about his American anonymity. “I could walk down Hollywood Boulevard naked and no one would notice,” he said. But Pegg has found that his inner-fan enjoys being in Hollywood. “John Landis<\/b> took me to see Terminator<\/i> the other day and then we had dinner in his home,” he said. “He’s one of my favorite directors, and I grew up loving American Werewolf in London<\/i>, and Animal House<\/i> and Blues Brothers<\/i>. To be able to go around to his house was a joy.”<\/p>\n Another favorite Hollywood experience for Pegg came at the Iron Man<\/i> premiere. Simon had worked with Jeff Bridges<\/b> in How to Lose Friends and Alienate People<\/i>, and seeing Bridges at the premiere, went to say goodbye. Bridges was speaking his brother Beau as well as Jon Voight<\/b>, but when Pegg arrived, Bridges put his arm around Pegg.<\/p>\n “Jon [Voight] was telling some story about Midnight Cowboy, or some film he had been in, so I just stood there listening with Jeff’s arm around my shoulder, thinking, ‘How the devil did I get here?'” said Pegg. “That was my Hollywood moment.” <\/p>\n To read more, head to the article located here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In spite of the success of Star Trek XI, Simon Pegg is still low-profile in…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2401],"tags":[2749,2750,2572,2751],"class_list":["post-5709","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-star-trek-xi","tag-bridges","tag-landis","tag-pegg","tag-voight"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","newsphere-slider-full":"","newsphere-featured":"","newsphere-medium":""},"author_info":{"display_name":"T'Bonz","author_link":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/author\/tbonz\/"},"category_info":"Star Trek: XI<\/a>","tag_info":"Star Trek: XI","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5709","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5709"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5709\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6833,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5709\/revisions\/6833"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5709"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5709"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5709"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
