“There’s an art in entertainment. But there doesn’t have to be entertainment in art. Entertainment is an overrated function of art.”

For the digital cover of @hollywoodauthentic Issue 9, @simonpegg gives @gregwilliamsphotography a tour of his Hertfordshire home of 13 years. Filled with movie memorabilia, it’s a place where Pegg now works and plays. As we check out the DJ shed, the drum room and his office, he reflects on a career ranging from Shaun of the Dead to Mission: Impossible, why the Oscars should have a comedy category and what he’s learnt from Tom Cruise and Steven Spielberg…

Introducing our digital cover star Simon Pegg (@simonpegg) 🔎

“I’m not someone who just wants to make a quick buck and sit on my arse.”

From cutting his teeth in stand-up comedy to writing ’90s hit sitcoms, to creating the Cornetto trilogy, Simon Pegg is nothing less than an industry big dog. But, unlike most, the actor and screenwriter manages to be both a cult classic and a bestseller. For the past two decades, he’s been part of one of Hollywood’s biggest franchises, Mission: Impossible. Ahead of the film series’ finale, Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning, we sit down with Pegg to discuss his time in the Impossible Mission Force, Cornettos and why he refuses to just sit on his arse.

Yesterday, after 25 years of visiting Skala on the Greek island of @kefalonia_island_greece, I met with Theofilos Mixalatos, the island’s mayor and was given the honour of becoming an honorary constituent. Huge thanks to Theofolis, @marina.vergottis and especially @konstadinanikolovieni, @andreas.pollatos, @x.erietta and everyone at @captains_bar_skala. I am officially now part Greek. YAMAS!!!❤️🎉
