"Edgar Wright has discussed the ways in which The World&amp;#039;s End fits into his &amp;#039;Blood and Ice Cream&amp;#039; trilogy.  The director reunites with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost for the first time since 2006&amp;#039;s Hot Fuzz on The World&amp;#039;s End, which sees five friends reuniting to try and recreate an epic pub crawl from their adolescence.   &amp;quot;I think this one is our way of wrapping up, with some formality, the man-child aspect of the series,&amp;quot; Wright told IGN. &amp;quot;There&amp;#039;s an element within all of the movies that&amp;#039;s about growing up.  &amp;quot;Shaun [in Shaun of the Dead] has to grow up to be a hero. In Hot Fuzz Nick Angel has to dumb down to Andy&amp;#039;s level to save the day.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;There&amp;#039;s a lot of American comedies in the last 10 years that have been about man-children or dealing with responsibility. But I feel that they never get too deep under the surface.  &amp;quot;They bring up some aspects but don&amp;#039;t delve into them very deeply. And I think here we tried to skewer those movies in a sense.&amp;quot; Pegg&amp;#039;s character Gary is described as a 40-year-old man clinging desperately to his teenage years, while Frost&amp;#039;s Andy is a successful lawyer.  Martin Freeman, Paddy Considine and Eddie Marsan play the other three friends; an estate agent, a rocker-turned-architect and a car dealer respectively.  &amp;gt; Simon Pegg, Edgar Wright&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;The World&amp;#039;s End&amp;#039; unveils new stills &amp;gt; Simon Pegg: &amp;#039;The World&amp;#039;s End isn&amp;#039;t a parody&amp;#039; The World&amp;#039;s End will be released on August 14 in the UK, and October 25 in the US.
