Simon Pegg has slain zombies and defused bombs, but the "strangest" prop he owns is a fake nose he stole from the set of Star Wars: "It's in a little glass case at my house"

Simon Pegg as Unkar Plutt in Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

It's not uncommon for actors to keep mementos from films they've starred in, including props and costume pieces. But beloved genre star Simon Pegg may have one of the weirdest souvenirs around: a big, bulbous prosthetic nose from his appearance in Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

In the Star Wars revival film, Pegg portrays Unkar Plutt, an irascible junk dealer on Rey's desert homeworld of Jakku. As described by director J.J. Abrams, Plutt is a blobfish-esque creature with a particularly distinct nose that takes up a good portion of his face, not unlike a blobfish that's been brought to the surface from the ocean depths.
