Well now, fans of Bryan Lee O\u2019Malley<\/span>\u2018s acclaimed graphic novel series<\/a> and Edgar Wright<\/a>\u2018s cult movie will be elated that the franchise is getting a brand new iteration in the world of anime and even better \u2013 the entire cast are reprising their roles (this time as voice actors).<\/p>\n Director Edgar Wright revealed that he floated the idea of the cast\u2019s return in a simple email with the subject line\u00a0\u201cScott Pilgrim\u2026 to be continued?\u201d to the 2010 cast. \u201cHearing the actors play their parts again was emotional, heartwarming, and hilarious,\u201d Wright told Netflix<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re giving them an opportunity to revisit something that meant a lot to them, but they also are bringing their years of experience, their perspective on these characters, and it leads to awesome stuff.\u201d<\/p>\n Of course, that means that Michael Cera will be reprising his lead role as Scott while the rest of the cast includes the likes of\u00a0both Captains Marvel and America themselves, Brie Larson<\/a> and Chris Evans<\/a>. Fans were recently treated to their first glimpses of the cast in the the official trailer<\/a> and opening credits<\/a>, which were also released on YouTube.<\/p>\n It\u2019s no secret that the cast of the 2010 film clearly enjoyed working on it, having taken part in previous 10th anniversary events for the film including a table read-through, but to have everyone back for this project shows just how beloved the film was not just by fans but by everyone involved.<\/p>\n Read on for all you need to know about the cast of Scott Pilgrim Takes Off.<\/p> The full cast for Scott Pilgrim Takes Off is as follows:<\/p>\n Who is Scott Pilgrim?\u00a0<\/strong>Well, the titular character, of course. The 23-year-old bass player of up-and-coming band Sex Bob-Omb, he is our window into this world of interdimensional highways, vengeful exes and awesome guitar riffs.<\/p>\n Although he does bounce a little from girl-to-girl throughout his history (Envy to Knives to Ramona), there\u2019s a sincere lovability to Scott throughout the graphic novels that many of the characters including Kim Pine, Ramona Flowers and even Stacey Pilgrim remark on.<\/p>\n Although Cera\u2019s embodiment of Scott in the film does feel markedly different from the graphic novel, it\u2019s hard to see anyone else playing Pilgrim these days.<\/p>\n Where have I seen Michael Cera before?\u00a0<\/strong>Where\u00a0haven\u2019t\u00a0<\/em>you seen Michael Cera before? Maybe you know him from his earlier work in indie films like Superbad with Jonah Hill, Youth in Revolt and Nick & Norah\u2019s Infinite Playlist, as well as Juno with Elliot Page and bigger blockbuster fare like This is the End or, most recently, his turn as one-of-a-kind doll Allen in Barbie<\/a>.<\/p>\n He\u2019s also popped up in a variety of television including Arrested Development, Children\u2019s Hospital, Black Mirror and Twin Peaks: The Return.<\/p>\n Who is Ramona Flowers?\u00a0<\/strong>Ramona is the ultimate \u2018It Girl\u2019. A 24-year-old package deliverer whose hair changes from week-to-week, and who also holds claim to one of the most robust collections of tea in Toronto. Throughout both the graphic novel and 2010 film, Ramona is presented to us as this mysterious yet immensely cool person who we gradually get to know as Scott encounters each of her evil exes \u2013 even just having evil exes should tell you a lot about her complicated past.<\/p>\n When developing the character for Wright\u2019s adaptation, Winstead claimed that she received a list of 10 secret facts revolving around Flowers\u2019s past. However, due to the secretive nature of the list itself, to this day it\u2019s still unknown what all of the facts are.<\/p>\n While she did reveal one secret \u2013 that Ramona had a younger brother who died, and the shoelaces she wears on her neck in the graphic novel are a remembrance \u2013 series creator O\u2019Malley has since denied this being canon to the story. Basically, if it\u2019s not in the books, it\u2019s not canon.<\/p>\n Where have I seen Mary Elizabeth Winstead before?\u00a0<\/strong>While many were likely introduced to Winstead through her depiction of the live-action Ramona Flowers, you may also know her from another superhero-focused movie, Sky High. If you\u2019re a horror fan, you\u2019ll definitely remember her from Final Destination 3, or perhaps even her role in TV horror series Wolf Lake. Since Scott Pilgrim vs the World, she\u2019s gone on to star in big-budget fare like 10 Cloverfield Lane, Fargo and Birds of Prey, and most recently plays Hera Syndulla<\/a> in Disney Plus<\/a>\u2018s Ahsoka<\/a>.<\/p>\n Who is Matthew Patel?\u00a0<\/strong>The first of Ramona\u2019s evil exes that Scott has to face off with, who also introduces him to the concept of the League of Ramona\u2019s Evil Exes \u2013 however, he has to do this in person, as Scott repeatedly ignores his emails.<\/p>\n Despite only dating for a week-and-a-half, Ramona left such an impression on Matthew that he\u2019s willing to fight pretty much everyone that she dated since. This is a little ironic as Ramona broke up with Matthew due to seeing him as a little childish \u2013 I\u2019d say interrupting a hard-earned gig at the Battle of the Bands to win over your now-adult ex-girlfriend from her new boyfriend shows he hasn\u2019t grown up that much.<\/p>\n Despite only being in Wright\u2019s 2010 adaptation for three or four minutes, Bhabha leaves a lasting impression \u2013 as he\u2019s the only character in the entire film to get his own musical segment, inspired by Bollywood soundtracks. Watching Cera dodge fireballs as Bhabha spits literal bars of fire against a backdrop of demon cheerleaders pretty much sets up the zany, video game-like fights that are to come throughout the film very well.<\/p>\n Where have I seen Satya Bhabha before?\u00a0<\/strong>Most people likely know him from New Girl, if not Scott Pilgrim vs the World, where he plays Shivrang, CeCe\u2019s husband-to-be until Schmidt crashes their wedding and proclaims his love. Since then, he\u2019s also starred in Sense8 as Habib and coming-of-age film Dude alongside Lucy Hale.<\/p>\n Who is Wallace Wells?\u00a0<\/strong>Wallace is none other than Scott\u2019s gay roommate, who Scott essentially freeloads off of throughout the series. The pair share a double bed instead of two separates, as they\u2019re both too poor to afford their own (very relatable). What\u2019s clear in both the graphic novels and the film is that Wallace has an impossibly strong charisma that enables him to get involved with whoever he wants \u2013 including Stacey Pilgrim\u2019s past and present boyfriends, much to her chagrin.<\/p>\n Although the origin of Wallace and Scott\u2019s friendship is never fully explored, we do get a hint into how they met in Book 2 of the graphic novel series, as Wallace tells Kim that it\u2019s a \u201creally gay story\u201d. The character of Wallace has actually been confirmed to have been based on O\u2019Malley\u2019s own former roommate, Chris Butcher, and serves as a loving homage to the time they spent together.<\/p>\n Where have I seen Kieran Culkin before?\u00a0<\/strong>Most people now recognise Kieran as the jester of the Roys, Roman Roy from Succession. Long before that, he starred as Matthew Banks in both Father of the Bride 1 and 2, alongside appearances in Movie 43 and one of Steven Soderbergh\u2019s latest features, No Sudden Move.<\/p>\n Who is Lucas Lee?\u00a0<\/strong>Lucas is Ramona\u2019s second evil ex, and surprisingly shares a number of traits with real-life actor Chris Evans. Both are big, buff actors who star in beloved blockbuster action movies, although Evans is known to be a lot\u00a0<\/em>nicer than Lucas Lee. Lee is yet another high-school boyfriend that Ramona quickly runs Scott through \u2013 she was infatuated by him briefly due to his skateboarder persona, but soon lost interest as she cheated him on for Todd Ingram (but more on that later).<\/p>\n Because Lucas and Scott\u2019s fight in the graphic novel is relatively short, in the movie, Wright pumped up the stakes a considerable amount by giving Lee nine stunt doubles, essentially appearing as though he could clone himself. Scott is actually unable to best Lucas in hand-to-hand combat, but skillfully assessing his inflated ego, challenges Lee to an all-but-certain fatal grind down an icy rail, to which he accepts \u2013 and explodes into coins.<\/p>\n Where have I seen Chris Evans before?\u00a0<\/strong>Well,\u00a0before\u00a0<\/em>the MCU, you might know him from cult comedy Not Another Teen Movie, Fantastic Four or Danny Boyle thriller Sunshine. But after\u00a0<\/em>the MCU? The Avengers, Captain America: Civil War\u2026 the list goes on, honestly. Evans has quickly become one of Hollywood\u2019s most charming A-listers, still finding time to star in a range of projects including Bong Joon-ho\u2019s Snowpiercer, Rian Johnson\u2019s Knives Out and even a few TV projects \u2013 like Defending Jacob<\/a> on Apple TV+.<\/p>\n Who is Stacey Pilgrim?\u00a0<\/strong>Stacey is the younger sister of Scott, and, of course, knows everything about him and his life \u2013 often moments after he\u2019s discovered things himself. Despite the age difference between the pair, Stacey repeatedly calls Scott \u2018little brother\u2019, usually due to the fact that Stacey is the more responsible and mature of the pair even with her younger age.<\/p>\n She has a tenuous friendship with Wallace, from whom she gets much of her information. However, that relationship is often strained when Wallace steals away her latest beau-to-be.<\/p>\n The character of Stacey is also based on another real-life counterpart from O\u2019Malley\u2019s life, his own sister \u2013 also called Stacey. However, this character was perhaps a little too on-the-nose for the creator, as he\u2019s expressed in recent years that Stacey Pilgrim would be the one character he\u2019d remove from the series if possible, as he believes it to be too close to his actual sister \u2013 at the very least, he wishes he could change her name.<\/p>\nScott Pilgrim Takes Off cast and characters<\/strong><\/h2>\n
