Blog 11 - Battle Scars - Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World from Scott Pilgrim The Movie on Vimeo.
Jason Schwartzman, who plays the as-yet-unseen Graves can be seen laughing on set with Pilgrim himself, Michael Cera. The two will most likely duke it out for the film's climactic final confrontation for the love of Ramona Flowers...or will they?
MTV News spoke with Schwartzman about his work on "Scott Pilgrim."
“One moment that was quite surreal was myself on a wire—like a wire that’s attached to a pulley system—and I’m being pulled 30 feet above the ground, sword-fighting in mid-air. I was also jumping on trampolines and flipping, and doing all this stuff. That was the ‘If-my-friends-from-high-school-could-see-me-now’ moment,” he said.
“I’ve played people who have some villain-esque tendencies, but I’ve never played an-out-and-out enemy of the people before,” he explained of his character, Gideon Gordon Graves. “It was incredible. I loved it.”
“Basically, Michael Cera falls in love with a woman,” Schwartzman said of the plot. “And in order to go out with her and win her affection, he must defeat her seven ex-evil boyfriends in a series of battles. And I am the final boyfriend; I’m the mastermind. And I am quite lethal.”
So, one would assume he was sword-fighting Cera on those wires for the final battle, right? Not so fast, cautioned Schwartzman.
“No, not Michael—somebody else,” he explained cryptically. “But I can’t say who.”
Then what happens during the climatic battle of "Scott Pilgrim?" Guess we'll have to find out next year when the film hits theaters.
More news to come! Catch ya' later!
