While
at SDCC, Benedict Cumerbatch implied that Simon Pegg was going to
have a role in J.J. Abrams Star Wars: Episode VII. This was yet
another nail in the rumor of Pegg's role in the film, which began
when the actor was spotted on the set of the film.
Vulture
recently caught up with the actor, and asked him if he was in the
film, to which he replied using some very specific wording.
"Well,
J.J. uses me in different roles, and we’re good friends. I feel
like my face in Star Wars would pop people out of the movie. Look, I
love Star Wars, and I don’t want people to watch and go, Oh,
there’s Simon Pegg’s face. The film is cleverly cast with these
amazing, unknown actors.
So, you’re not in the movie?
[Smiles.]
Of course I visited the set. It’s amazing, and I love Star Wars. I
want to see everything happening. It looks wonderful, and you need to
believe those characters. Any type of stunt casting might just pop
you out of the movie."
This
looks like the actor is hinting at a possible voice role to either a
CGI character, or an onscreen character but under tons of prosthetics,
maybe an alien or a robot.
What
do you think?
