10 Most Outstanding Paddy Considine Performances

7. Hot Fuzz

The second film in Edgar Wright’s ‘Cornetto Trilogy’ sees Considine bring his comedy game to the character of Detective Sergeant Andy Wainwright, one half of a gloriously inept double act alongside Rafe Spall.

Again with relatively little actual screen time, Considine goes some way to stealing every scene he’s in, constantly ridiculing Simon Pegg’s over-achieving constable, rolling his eyes and sniggering at his own jokes.

It’s the surrounding minor roles in this film that make it a much-loved comedy classic, and Considine is clearly relishing his piss-taking part in that.
