We know how the young hotness of Mary Elizabeth Winstead looks as a cheerleader (thanks, QT!), but how will she do as a rollerskating kung-fu courier? We’ll find out — Winstead is already getting prepared for her role in SCOTT PILGRIM vs. THE WORLD, the next film from our beloved Edgar Wright (SHAUN OF THE DEAD).
“I have a film I’m going to start, with Michael Cera and directed by Edgar Wright, called SCOTT PILGRIM vs. THE WORLD,” she tells Moviehole. “I’m extremely excited about it. I actually just started Kung-Fu training for it today!“
Based on Bryan O’Malley’s rather awesome series of graphic novels, the story follows the Toronto slacker of the title, who splits his time between playing in his rock band Sex Bob-omb and doing battle with the seven evil exes of his foxy but mysterious new girl Ramona. Warp-holes, videogame power-ups and general chaos ensues.
And no, it’s not really news, except to verify that PILGRIM will be Wright’s next project and is ramping up soon. Plus, an excuse to post pics of Winstead. Gimme an A!
