Simon Pegg has a Mission Impossible

First of all- sorry bloggers for the lack of updates the last week lots of stuff was hushed up and we weren't allowed to tell you but now we're free!  Whoo!

So news item 1!  Simon Pegg is in talks to return to his role of Benji the scientist in Mission: Impossible IV.  Rumours have been circulating for a while that the new movie will go ahead- the earlier incarnation of the film was stopped in its tracks when Tom Cruise broke away from Paramount and caused an almighty Hollywood rift- but that seems to be all over now and M:I 4 is definitely going to happen.

Simon stands a pretty good chance of having a meatier role in the sequel with J.J Abrams on board to executive produce (and maybe direct) J.J is notoriously loyal to his actor mates and cast Pegg in his rebooted Star Trek after his turn in M:I3.

Watch this space for more info on the spy franchise and also updates on Simon's next film - Ealing's Burke & Hare!
