The Shaun Of The Dead and Hot Fuzz star Nick Frost was once offered a role in a Star Wars film but turned the role down as the pay was rubbish.
Appearing on the Celebrity Catch Up: Life After That Thing I Did podcast, Frost revealed the offer, saying: “It was only a little bit but I was like, it’s really small, the pay’s rubbish… I’ve got a family – I don’t do this for free.
“I mean I like Star Wars, I like watching it. I don’t want to watch it and think: ‘Look at your ugly mug’.”
Discussing whether he regrets the decision, Frost added: “There’s a part of me that thinks, ‘you could have been in Star Wars‘… But fuck it.
“I tend to not to look backwards at all, so that doesn’t really affect me as a choice I took because I think, well, it’s done. I’ve made the decision.”
