London, July 02 English comedian Simon Pegg, who is expecting a child with wife Maureen McCann, is excited about the impending arrival of his baby.

"It's the most important thing to me. I'm very excited. I want to be a really good dad, a good influence and a good role model - someone my child can turn to, whatever the hell that means... It's all to do with your attitude and making sure they stay grounded, but making sure they aren't deprived of anything," the Daily Express quoted him as saying.

He is also ready to fulfill every wish of his expected child.

He said: "If you've got the money to give them things, and it's a positive thing, then you should do it - education, whatever they need."

The actor is also delighted that his offspring will be born in Los Angeles, which entitles the baby to dual citizenship.

He adds: "It struck me that, technically, he or she could eventually become President of the United States. The potential is there!"

The 'Shaun of the Dead' actor is already godfather to Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin's daughter Apple. (ANI)
