The dynamic dudes that gave us 2004’s ‘Shaun of the Dead’ are prepping a new horror-comedy TV series titled ‘Truth Seekers’. Simon Pegg and Nick Frost went on to work on several comedy films like ‘Hot Fuzz’ but their mix of gorey undead action and madcap British humor in the zombie movie is still their definitive work, so it’s interesting to see them taking similar concepts to the small screen for a binge delivery.
Talking to Variety, Pegg said: “Each episode is going to be an adventure, a potential haunting or something. It’ll start as a very parochial idea, a very small business venture for these people, but it will expand as the series goes on to be something far more global. It’s a language everyone understands – the mystery of the unknown. Shaun Of The Dead was a very parochial story set in North London and somehow it managed to get this global reach because everyone understands the language of zombie movies.”
