Simon Pegg filmography
Simon Pegg is an English actor, comedian, screenwriter, and producer. He came to public prominence in the UK as the co-creator of the sitcom Spaced, directed by Edgar Wright. He went on to co-write and star in the Three Flavours Cornetto film trilogy: Shaun of the Dead (2004), Hot Fuzz (2007), and The World's End (2013). He and frequent collaborator Nick Frost wrote and starred in the sci-fi film Paul (2011). Pegg is also known for his portrayal of Montgomery "Scotty" Scott in all three films of the Star Trek reboot film series: Star Trek (2009), Into Darkness (2013), and Beyond (2016), and as the visual basis for Wee Hughie in the comic book The Boys (2006–2012; 2020), voicing the character in Diabolical (2022), and playing his father in The Boys from 2019 to 2024.
He first appeared as Benji Dunn in the film Mission: Impossible III (2006), the third installment in the Mission: Impossible film series, and went on to reprise the role in Ghost Protocol (2011), Rogue Nation (2015), Fallout (2018), Dead Reckoning Part One (2023) and the upcoming Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning (2025). He has lent his voice to the animated character Buck in the Ice Age film series, namely Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs (2009), Scrat's Continental Crack-up (2011), Ice Age: Collision Course (2016), and The Ice Age Adventures of Buck Wild (2022), the latter of which made him the only cast member to reprise a role from previous films.
As a director he has only one credit, directing the parody music video Au Revoir Chris Hemsworth, which is a parody of the song Chick Habit. The song was sung by Pom Klementieff and it was written for the Russo Brother's AGBO Superhero League Week.
