‘Scott Pilgrim Takes Off’ Creators Bryan Lee O’Malley & BenDavid Grabinski On A New Interpretation With The Same “Core Elements”


'Scott Pilgrim Takes Off' creators Bryan Lee O'Malley & BenDavid Grabinski on giving Ramona the narrative focus and expanding backstories of the exes.

Both Lee O’Malley and Grabinski were excited for this adaptation to not just feature Ramona as the driving narrative force, but also give a greater backstory to her connection with each of the exes. BRYAN LEE O’MALLEY: I heard at one point that my friend and producer of the Scott Pilgrim movie, Jared [LeBoff] had sat next to the head of Netflix animation at dinner somewhere. GRABINSKI: Well, Bryan and I were just discussing how great it would be if there was a way to tell the story, but give her more real estate, and the entire concept of the show was reverse engineered to do that.
