‘Absolutely Anything’ Clip: Simon Pegg Talks To Robin Williams-Voiced Dog

Simon Pegg and Dennis (Voiced by Robin Williams) in Absolutely Anything

Back in 2012 we found out about a movie that would reunite the comedy group Monty Python (with Terry Jones leading the project as both writer and director) titled Absolutely Anything. The movie was to be a combination of live-action and CGI, following a teacher who’s given the ability to do absolutely anything he wants by aliens (voiced by Python members) so they can see how badly the human messes things up with this newfound power.

Way back then, apart from knowing that Monty Python members were involved, the only actor who was attached to the project was Robin Williams, who plays a talking dog named Dennis in what looks like will be his final role. The lead role was eventually cast with the great Simon Pegg. A new clip from the movie has been released of Pegg using his helpful ability, including having a chat with Dennis. You can watch it below.

Gavin Scott, who co-wrote the script with Jones, spoke of Williams’ involvement in the movie:

“One thing we’re grateful to Robin for is he was the first to come on and he stuck with the whole thing.

The kind of attitude that led him to stick with the project through all its ups and downs, he totally exhibited here. He wanted to make everybody feel good from the engineer to the lady making the coffee. It was very late in the day for him and we didn’t know that, but he was a real mensch.”

Absolutely Anything also stars Kate Beckinsale and Eddie Izzard, and will be released starting in the UK in spring of 2015.
