Comic-Con International: Scott Pilgrim is ready to put up a fight
|
The graphic novel character hits the big screen with 'Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World.' Michael Cera stars as Pilgrim, who must do battle with his the seven evil exes of his heart's desire.
If a geek-chic lifestyle came with a primer, it might read something like Bryan Lee O'Malley's "Scott Pilgrim" graphic novels. A six-part series influenced equally by rock 'n' roll and old Nintendo games, O'Malley's tale of one hopeless romantic's quest to win the girl of his dreams is filled with relationship-challenged characters who come of age the same way Mario and Luigi battle pixilated turtles — with a kick, a jump and a prayer for a second chance. Now, five years after writer-director Edgar Wright phoned the then-Toronto-based artist to option his work, "Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World" is poised to become a breakout sensation at Comic-Con International. The film, helmed by the fan favorite behind the cult comedy sendups "Shaun of the Dead" and "Hot Fuzz," stars indie-film heartthrob Michael Cera as Scott Pilgrim, an insecure musician forced to battle the seven evil exes of the object of his obsession, Ramona Flowers ( Mary Elizabeth Winstead). She's out of his league, and to win her he has to fight for her — literally.
