I have some unpleasant news to share with you regarding Edgar Wright-product Scott Pilgrim takes off animated series. Netflix hid it after just one season.
Scott Pilgrim vs. the World fans were excited about the series when it was first announced and it provided a completely new anime-style take on Bryan Lee O’Malley’s original Scott Pilgrim comic series.
The show was a lot of fun, but I guess the fan base wasn’t big enough to justify a second season. O’Malley shared the news of the cancellation on X, saying:
“It’s been a year since then Scott Pilgrim takes off he came out. It was an honor to work with all the cast and crew from around the world. It was like conducting a symphony orchestra every day.
“From now on [series writer BenDavid Granbinski] brought the idea to life, the project seemed like a one-of-a-kind miracle. However, we were recently informed that the show will NOT be returning.”
“As you know, we only intended to make one season and we called in a lot of favors to make it happen, so making more would have been almost impossible. However, I know that some of you have had hope.
One of the things they did Scott Pilgrim takes off special was that the entire cast of the film returned to reprise their roles, including Michele Cera as Scott Pilgrim, Mary Elizabeth Winstead in the role of Ramona Fiori, Satya Bhabha as Matthew Patel, Kieran Culkin as Wallace Wells, Chris Evans as Lucas Lee, Anna Kendrick as Stacey Pilgrim, Brie Larson in the role of Invidia Adams, Alison Pill as Kim Pine, Aubrey Square as Julie Powers, Brandon Routh as Todd Ingram, Jason Schwartzmann as Gideon Graves, Johnny Simmons in the role of the “young” Neil Nordegraf, Marco Webber as Stephen Stills, Mae Whitman as Roxie Richter and Ellen Wong as Knives Chau.
I would have liked to see the series get another season, but it’s not hard to see why we won’t get another season.
