O’Malley then confirmed what those leaked reports were about Scott PellegrinoThe anime of in 2022 was all true, saying:

Woo hoo! I am enthusiastic about this project. I don’t watch anime, but I like them Scott Pellegrino, so this will be a good introduction for me. No release date has been scheduled for the series, but I bet we’ll hear about it soon.

“Recently, [director] Edgar [Wright] AND Jessica Fisher Bryan [Lee O’Malley], they wrote – that email chain is also alive. It’s never cold for too long – they said: ‘We’re making a cartoon. Are you guys inside?’ And everyone was like, ‘Sure, yeah, no problem. Not even a question.’ Like not even a hesitation. Really everyone entered without thinking about it. So I’m excited to do it.”

We too are thrilled. You can’t wait to do it Scott Pellegrino souls?
