Overview
- In a new interview given during promotion for The Running Man, Wright told Polygon he has no intention of revisiting Shaun of the Dead.
- He argued that many sequels struggle because the original tells the full story, saying Shaun’s journey leaves no clear arc for a follow-up.
- Wright said he has not been approached recently about a sequel and he is comfortable with that.
- Simon Pegg has echoed the stance this year, saying the film should be left alone and dismissing the idea of a reboot.
- The 2004 hit remains the first entry in Wright’s thematically linked but standalone Three Flavours Cornetto trilogy, as attention turns to his upcoming The Running Man due in theaters in November 2025.
