Though we’re still bummed that the Mayans didn’t have their shit straight, we are happy that the world will exist long enough to see the new flick from Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg, The World’s End! Speaking of which, check out a couple of new stills.

The World’s End is directed by Wright and stars Pegg along with long time buddy Nick Frost, Rosamund Pike, Martin Freeman, Paddy Considine and Eddie Marsan. Look for it in theatres on October 25, 2013.

Synopsis
20 years after attempting an epic pub crawl, five childhood friends reunite when one of them becomes hell bent on trying the drinking marathon again. They are convinced to stage an encore by mate Gary King, a 40-year old man trapped at the cigarette end of his teens, who drags his reluctant pals to their home town and once again attempts to reach the fabled pub, The World’s End. As they attempt to reconcile the past and present, they realize the real struggle is for the future, not just theirs but humankind’s. Reaching The World’s End is the least of their worries.
