Description: Through all his films, foreshadowing is one of the most fun strengths of director Edgar Wright. His ability to set up a story beat and pay it off in the most subtle, easter egg kind of ways, not only makes for interesting films, but rewards the eagle-eyed viewer watching his movies time after time. But one of the sneakiest pieces of foreshadowing he’s ever laid down on us, is in his zombie horror comedy Shaun of the Dead and it was right under our noses (and feet) the whole time. With his new film Last Night in Soho picking up the thread as well, Edgar Wright and his penchant for foreshadowing is well documented. It’s a bull fight on TV in Baby Driver setting up his final confrontation with Jon Hamm. It’s the production design in Scott Pilgrim vs. The World that makes the evil exes seem obvious in retrospect. The rest of the Cornetto Trilogy, Hot Fuzz and The World’s End, don’t skimp on dropping hints either, often working in background clues to how the movie will play out even if you don’t get them until you watch the film for a second time.
