Simon Pegg Checks To See If He’s Dead As Shaun Of The Dead Trends

I mean, he could still be a zombie, right?

Simon Pegg has been in a lot of films — Ready Player One, Star Trek: Beyond, and Star Wars: The Force Awakens just to name a few — but none of his roles are quite as fondly remembered as the time he played Shaun in Shaun of the Dead. Especially with spooky season upon us, it’s no surprise people are going back and giving this zombie comedy classic another watch.

However, when an internet trend caused Shaun of the Dead to start trending over on Twitter, it looks like Pegg needed to make sure he wasn’t dead. Considering the movie is all about zombies, we can’t exactly blame him.

A ton of fans took the time to share their appreciation for the film under his comedic post as unsurprisingly, many absolutely adore the film.
