Simon Pegg is apologizing after getting major backlash from sci-fi fans for some recent comments her made about the genre. In a new interview with the U.K.’s Radio Times, the 45-year-old Star Trek and Paul star seemed to criticize sci-fi movies even though he’s made a name for himself within the fan-favorite genre. Needless to say, sci-fi fans reacted to Pegg’s comments in a big way. So much so, he clarified his quotes via his personal blog. Pegg wrote on Tuesday, “Now, maybe I was being a little bit trollish, I can be a bit of a Contrary Mary in interviews sometimes. When you do lots of them, you get sick of your own opinions and start espousing other people’s. I love Science Fiction and fantasy and do not think it’s all childish. I do not think it is all generated by dominant forces as a direct means of control…much. I am still a nerd and proud.”
