Nick Frost on “Timestalker” and Playing a Self-Described Horrible Beast

One of the most recognizable faces of British cinema – known best for “Shaun of the Dead” and “Hot Fuzz” –, actor Nick Frost stopped over at Locarno to show his latest film, the centuries-spanning time travel romantic comedy “Timestalker”, on the Piazza Grande. While in town, he sat down for a conversation on Locarno Meets to discuss the genesis of this one-of-a-kind new movie, expound on his admiration for director Alice Lowe – another beloved staple of British television comedy – and reflect on what it means to play a pretty evil dude across dozens of historical eras on screen. #LocarnoMeets: where established legends of cinema and exciting new talents chat about art, life, movies and everything in between. Locarno Meets is a Locarno Film Festival original podcast. → Spotify https://shorturl.at/aWOL5 → Apple Podcasts https://shorturl.at/hlfA2 → Amazon Music https://shorturl.at/qzZu0 ___ Subscribe to our newsletter: http://www.locarnofestival.ch/newsletter Connect with us – https://www.locarnofestival.ch/ –   / filmfestlocarno   –   / locarno-film-festival   – https://x.com/FilmFestLocarno –   / locarnofilmfestival
