We abducted Shaun Of The Dead star Nick Frost at the premiere for alien invasion flick Attack The Block in London’s Leicester Square and gave him an alien probe.
Roly poly funnyman Nick admitted his ‘love’ for extraterrestials, with Attack The Block being his second alien film to hit the big screen in as many months.
Bearded Nick chose Close Encounters as his all time favourite alien film and said he likes his other-wordly beings to be ‘nice,’ but likes his women tough.
We also pushed him to pick his ideal alien battling lady – between Sigourney Weaver or 90s hottie Gillian Anderson as Agent Scully.
He said: “I’ve already had Siguorney, well she’s been in a film I’ve made, so I’d better spread the love and go with Scully.”
Attack the Block is Nick’s first film away from pal Simon Pegg, the duo collaborated on TV show Spaced, Hot Fuzz, Shaun Of The Dead and recent alien buddy road movie Paul.
They are currently working with ET mastermind Stephen Speilberg on the Hollywood remake of Tin Tin.
Attack the Block is released Friday 13th May.
The Film Four funded film follows a group of kids from a South London block of flats as they fight off an alien invasion.
The majority of the cast are new to the big screen – including TV comedian turned director Joe Cornish – but there are a few familiar faces, namely Jodie Whittaker (St. Trinian’s, Perrier’s Bounty) and Nick Frost.
