Probably not worth a thread because this is a long ways away and doesnt even have a series order, but I'd be down for this.


A Scott Pilgrim anime series is currently in development at Netflix.

Per a report from THR, the anime series will adapt the hit graphic novel series that inspired the Ubisoft video game and the Edgar Wright film, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, starring Michael Cera. The series is being developed by Netflix and Universal’s UCP, but does not have a series order just yet.

Scott Pilgrim creator Bryan Lee O’Malley is writing the animated series and will serve as an executive producer with BenDavid Grabinski (Are You Afraid of the Dark?). The duo will serve as showrunners should a series order be given.


As for the animation, anime studio Science SARU (Ping Pong the Animation, Super Shiro) will be handling production with Eunyoung Choi as producer and Abel Gongora serving as director. Science SARU recently contributed two episodes to Star Wars: Visions: “Akakiri” and “T0-B1.”
