Hot fuzz12/30/2023 ![]() So, really, the film is setting up for further adventures. They don't become Hot Fuzz until the last 20 minutes of the film. "Hot Fuzz is an origin story, ultimately. ![]() Speaking further, Pegg explained that Hot Fuzz is, in essence, an origin story that sets up further stories. Though Wright expressed that he is more interested in focusing on original stories at the moment. When I spoke to Edgar Wright about the proposed sequel in 2017, the director admitted, like Simon Pegg, that it is indeed the entry in the Cornetto Trilogy that would warrant a sequel. I'd love to play Nicholas Angel again, that was fun. They're a thematic trilogy rather than direct sequels. ![]() We made Shaun of the Dead, and the sequel to that film is Hot Fuzz, and the sequel to Hot Fuzz is The World's End. All of those films, they have an arc and then they finish. Edgar and I, when we've done something, we want to move onto the next thing. We also had an idea for a spin-off with the Andys, with Paddy and Rafe. The hypothetical sequel would be Danny and Angel in the big city together. We already joked about having a Crocodile Dundee reversal of it being Danny in the city. But these pint-swilling Peter Pans also know how to work the heart and the brain for belly laughs."I think it's the one film out of those three movies that lends itself to a sequel, in that, those kind of buddy-cop action movies often were sequelized. “As in their previous comedies, Pegg and Frost play men who refuse to stop acting like boys.

Each film in the trilogy is connected to a specific Cornetto flavour appearing in each film. On the promotional tour of Hot Fuzz during production of The World’s End, one interviewer pointed out the use of Cornetto in the first two films, to which Wright jokingly stated they represented a trilogy comparable to Krzysztof Kieślowski’s Three Colours film trilogy.įollowing this, Wright took serious consideration of thinking of the three movies as a trilogy, and wrote out The World’s End to complete themes set out in the earlier films, including placing a Cornetto reference in the film.

Wright had written in the use of Cornetto ice cream as a hangover cure for Frost’s character in Shaun of the Dead based on his own experiences. ![]() The name originates from a “silly joke” during the promotion of Hot Fuzz.
