The cast of 2010’s Scott Pilgrim vs. the World will be reprising their roles for Netflix’s Scott Pilgrim anime series. The film’s director Edgar Wright is on board as an executive producer, and the graphic novels’ author Bryan Lee O’Malley will write, executive produce, and serve as a co-showrunner with writer and executive producer BenDavid Grabinski (Are You Afraid of the Dark?).
“We’re getting the band back together! Cera and Winstead, Bhabha, Culkin, Evans, Kendrick, Larson, Pill, Plaza, Routh, Schwartzman, Simmons, Webber, Whitman, and Wong. A stellar cast, perfectly assembled by Edgar Wright. And, with Science SARU leading the phenomenal animation, we couldn’t ask for a better team for this adventure,” stated Bryan Lee O’Malley and BenDavid Grabinski. “We can’t wait for fans and newcomers alike to see what we and our partners at Science SARU have been cooking up. It’s going to be a wild ride.”

“One of the proudest and most enjoyable achievements of my career was assembling and working with the dynamite cast of Scott Pilgrim. Since the film’s release in 2010 we’ve done Q&A’s, remembrances and charity read-throughs, but there was never the occasion to reunite the whole gang on an actual project. Until now… Original creator Bryan Lee O’Malley, along with writer BenDavid Grabinski have conjured up an anime series of Scott Pilgrim that doesn’t just expand the universe, but also…well, just watch it,” said Edgar Wright. “I’m more than happy to announce that I have helped coax the entire original cast back to voice their characters on this epic new adventure. You are in for a treat.”
Science SARU is handling the animation and Abel Gongora is directing. Additional executive producers include Michael Bacall, Complete Fiction’s Nira Park, Science SARU’s Eunyoung Choi, and Marc Platt Productions’ Marc Platt, Jared LeBoff, and Adam Siegel.
