Early Life
Nick Frost was born on March 28, 1972 in Hornchurch, East London, England to office furniture designers Tricia and John. He had an older sister who passed away when he was 10 and she was 18. When Frost was 15, his parents lost their business as well as the family home, prompting them to move in with neighbors. Consequently, Frost left school and took a job with a shipping company to help make ends meet. He then spent two years at a kibbutz in Israel. Returning to England, Frost waited tables at a Mexican restaurant in North London. Doing that job, he met actor Simon Pegg, who would become his flatmate and closest career collaborator.
Television Career
Frost had his big break in 1999 when he was cast alongside Simon Pegg and Jessica Stevenson on the Channel 4 sitcom "Spaced." On the show, which was created by Pegg and Stevenson and directed by Edgar Wright, Frost played the army-obsessed Mike Watt, the best friend of Pegg's character Tim Bisley.
