This means we will see the return of Michael Cera, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Anna Kendrick, Chris Evans, Aubrey Plaza, and Brie Larson.
Scott Pilgrim vs. the World is based on the Scott Pilgrim graphic novels by Canadian author and comic book artist, Bryan Lee O’Malley, who will have a say in the making of the anime series. Due to the film’s multiple video game references and artistic design, the anime will be adapted seamlessly.
The story follows Scott Pilgrim, a slacker musician for his garage rock band called Sex Bob-Omb, who is stuck in a love triangle. He is in a relationship with the 17-year-old high-schooler, Knives Chau, and it feels too juvenile for the 22-year-old. He then meets Ramona Flowers and is instantly enamored by her. The only problem is, he has to defeat her seven evil exes in order to be with her.
The 2010 film boasts a star-studded cast before some of those names became huge in the film industry.

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World has since gained a cult following thanks to its completely over-the-top storyline, ridiculous characters, and snappy humor, and fans can’t wait for this new series to be released.
While the Scott Pilgrim anime series was first reported as being in development in January 2022 and there is no sign of a release date as of now. The trailer does not announce the official title as of yet, but it does promise that everything is coming soon.
