In Shaun Of The Dead, Rafe Spall played Noel, the first person to say "You've got red on you". In Hot Fuzz, Rafe Spall played DC Andy "Fuck off up the model village" Cartwright. And in The World's End, well... Rafe's not telling, but he does exclusively confirm that he will be on screen for Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright's conclusion to the Blood And Ice Cream trilogy.
The news comes from our extended** I Give It A Year** video interview with both Rafe and his rom-com co-star Rose Byrne, where we took the opportunity to ask whether he'd be returning for another lick of Edgar Wright's proverbial cinematic cornetto. Give it a squizz for yourself below to find out more.
It's intriguing that Rafe isn't willing to reveal who he's playing in the upcoming sci-fi comedy, implying that however the end of days comes in The World's End, it'll involve humanoid baddoes rather than, say, a massive asteroid or biblical flood. Aliens? Demons? Massive walking, talking ice creams? Leave your rampant conjecturing in the comment box below.
I Give It A Year is hits cinemas this Friday, February 8. The World's End, meanwhile, is out on August 14. Pick up a copy of Empire**'s March edition for exclusive reporting from the set of the film, and be sure to take a look at these fresh stills here and this The World's End** movie connection infographic too.
