Simon Pegg has had to withdraw from Quentin Tarantino’s “Inglorious Bastards”.

The Brit comic announced the news on his MySpace page, blaming a scheduling conflict.

”Much to our mutual disappointment, I won’t be appearing in QT’s forthcoming Inglorious Bastards due to insurmountable scheduling difficulties. We really tried to make it work but in the end, it just was not possible without severe ramifications elsewhere. I’m trying to remain upbeat, as Tom Selleck said “Who the hell is Indiana Jones anyway?”"

So, ah, that leaves, erm, Mike Myers as the film’s only light relief?

Fuck.
