"That can be a little frustrating sometimes" Simon Pegg has spoken about being pigeonholed as a comedy actor, while promoting his new thriller movie Inheritance.
The 50-year-old actor, who portrays a killer and rapist who’s held captive for 30 years in a secret bunker in the Vaughn Stein-directed film, said his reputation as a comedic star had led to him feeling “like people don’t take you seriously”, which can be “a little frustrating sometimes”.
His comments made to The Hollywood Reporter on Friday (May 22) came on the same day that his new film was released. It’s is an internet-only release, owing to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, which can be rented via Amazon Prime Video and Apple.
