This definitely falls into the category of “check this out” so make sure you do just that! The official blog for the new comedy written and starring Nick Frost and Simon Pegg titled Paul has launched this week. The blog can be found at WhatisPaul.com and it includes video updates and more from Frost and Pegg and the rest of the cast. Paul is being directed by Greg Mottola (Superbad, Adventureland) and is about two British comic book sci-fi geeks who take a road trip across the US and accidentally pick up an alien named Paul. Yea, we’re excited as hell for this and I can’t wait to see all the shenanigans they capture on the set.

Right now on the site you can watch a video introduction from Nick Frost and Simon Pegg, a video of the guys learning how to drive an RV, a video of actor Joe Lo Truglio talking about their “green efforts”, and some black and white photos from the set. I really love how this intricate internal look at the filmmaking process is becoming an accepted norm for Hollywood. Years ago, not a single unapproved photo or video (or tweet) from any set would’ve been allowed out in public. But now we get to see what it’s like to shoot a movie from the point-of-view of Nick Frost and Simon Pegg.
