After Scott Pilgrim vs. the World underperformed last fall, pundits politely asked Michael Cera to try something a little bit out of his hoodie-nerd wheelhouse. Would you accept a movie shot in an entirely different language? Cera’s friend, director Miguel Arteta, told The Playlist that the actor is currently studying Spanish for his next project, an untitled Chilean film that will be directed by Sebastian Silva (The Maid). “He’s spending five hours a day learning Spanish,” said Arteta. “He follows his own heart.”
Michael Cera is reportedly set to play himself in an indie drama, written and directed by Mark Webber.The Scott Pilgrim Vs The World star will appear as a “heightened version of himself”, alongside Amanda Seyfried, Shannyn Sossamon and Jason Ritter, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The as-yet-untitled movie, currently in production in Los Angeles, will focus on a struggling single dad (played by Mark) and his relationship with his two-year-old son – who will be portrayed by Mark’s own son of the same age.
“That’s the crux of the film. After spending so much time with my son being a father, I became obsessed with the idea of showing the most authentic father-son dynamic on screen,” Mark told The Hollywood Reporter.
“It’s been really cool and eye-opening to limit the exposure to my son but create the scenes and moments that seem realistically uncomfortable.”
The celebrities are his real friends. Mark, whose biggest screen credit is a small role in Scott Pilgrim Vs The World, said: “I’m getting them to show a real side of who they are and smash that up with people’s expectations of celebrity.”
Michael Cera Gets Tongue Tied in New Scott Pilgrim Clip
Scott Pilgrim vs. The World will hit theaters on August 13th, 2010, and Universal Pictures has released a new clip to help promote the film during the San Diego Comic-Con!
Scott Pilgrim is a film version of Bryan Lee O’Malley’s similarly titled graphic novels, directed by Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz director Edgar Wright, and stars Michael Cera, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Kieran Culkin, Chris Evans, and Jason Schwartzmann.
Scott Pilgrim’s life is so awesome. He’s 23 years old, in a rock band, “between jobs,” and dating a cute high school girl. Everything’s fantastic until a seriously mind-blowing, dangerously fashionable, roller blading delivery girl named Ramona Flowers starts cruising through his dreams and sailing by him at parties. But the path to Ms. Flowers isn’t covered in rose petals. Ramona’s seven evil exes stand between Scott and true happiness. Can Scott beat the bad guys and get the girl without turning his precious little life upside-down?
Hollywood is set to descend once again on San Diego for Comic-Con, an annual five-day event that’s become the de facto epicentre for sneak previews of upcoming movies and TV shows, whether they have anything to do with comic books or not.
Several upcoming comic book adaptations are fighting it out for fanboy attention, including next year’s Green Lantern with Ryan Reynolds as the famous DC Comics hero. Metro will be in San Diego all week to report on the announcements, parties and general insanity that is Comic-Con.
Marvel Comics has the most movie adaptations presenting at the convention, with star-studded panels packed for Thor and Captain America, which are currently in production.
Fans also expect to hear updates on TheAvengers, the planned film to unite those two characters with Iron Man, the Hulk and others.
Though Robert Downey Jr. is set to reprise his Iron Man role in the film, Marvel had a very public falling out earlier this month with Edward Norton, who will not return as the Hulk for the team-up film. Insiders predict Marvel will use Comic-Con as an opportunity to announce who will take on the part next.
At least one movie being presented at the convention has a direct link to the event: Shaun of the Dead star Simon Pegg will present details about Paul, a film about two geeks who meet an alien on their way to Comic-Con.
A notable absence will be anything related to the Twilight saga. Though fans of the series hit Comic-Con last year en masse, Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner won’t be showing up this year. Breaking Dawn, the next installment, won’t be out until November 2011.
Michael Cera talks ‘Arrested Development’ movie: ‘I feel scared by all the expectations’
Cera said he hadn’t spoken to Arrested Development creator Mitch Hurwitz about the movie “in a while.” More generally, the actor admitted to being apprehensive about the project. “I feel scared by the all the expectations on it at this point,” he revealed. “People ask me about it a lot. And to make a movie that already has expectations built in before the script is even written seems intimidating.”
On the other hand, Arrested Development fans can look forward to a mini cast reunion in Scott Pilgrim. One of Cera’s costars is Mae Whitman, who portrayed his girlfriend Ann on AD but, in Scott Pilgrim, plays one of the punch-happy “evil exes” of Cera’s new gal pal. “It was great,” Cera said of re-teaming with Whitman. “She’s so funny in this, and impressive too in her fight sequence.”
RELEASED on DVD and Blu-ray on July 12 is the coming-of-age comedy Youth in Revolt, starring Michael Cera.
Also in the cast of this tale of adolescent obsession and rebellion are Justin Long (Funny People, Dodgeball), Steve Buscemi (Big Fish, Fargo), Ray Liotta (Goodfellas, Observe and Report), Zach Galifianakis (The Hangover, What Happens in Vegas) and Portia Doubleday.
Teenager Nick Twisp (Cera) is a unique but affable teen with a taste for the finer things in life like Sinatra and Fellini who falls hopelessly in love with the beautiful, free-spirited Sheeni Saunders (Doubleday) while on a family vacation.
But family, geography and jealous ex-lovers conspire to keep the two apart. With Sheeni’s encouragement, Nick abandons his dull, predictable life and develops a rebellious alter ego: Francois Dillinger.
With his accent, his moustache and his cigarette, Francois will stop at nothing to be with Sheeni, and leads Nick Twisp on a path of destruction with unpredictable and uproarious consequences.
Both formats of the Momentum Pictures release will contain the following special features: audio commentary with director Miquel Areta and Michael Cera; deleted scenes; audition footage; deleted and extended animated sequences.

Edgar Wright Analyzes the Scott Pilgrim vs. The World Teaser Trailer
Article from reelzchannel.com talking about Michael’s new movie:
The teaser trailer for Scott Pilgrim vs. the World created some huge buzz around the Internet after its premiere with its arresting, comic book-esque visuals and its spot-on sense of humor. The story sees Michael Cera as Pilgrim, who must fight seven evil ex-boyfriends to win the love of the girl of his dreams (Mary Elizabeth Winstead). Director Edgar Wright spoke to Empire and gave a frame-by-frame analysis of the trailer, which Wright says only reveals a portion of what the movie has in store.
There’s a lot of eye-candy crammed into 85 seconds, but it doesn’t cover how crazy it gets. I wanted the whole film to be like a ride in one sense, and a bit of a trip in a way.
One part of the “ride” is the use of written sound effects, taken directly from the Bryan Lee O’Malley comic book which Wright says is part of the movie’s obvious comic book homage.
That does exactly what it says on the tin. ‘Whud!’ I felt that the last time that was really done was in the Batman TV series. Bryan’s books are comedic and I was always a big fan of pop-arty comic book adaptations like Danger Diabolik or Flash Gordon, something that gave me an excuse to have some fun with the medium. There’s a high graphic element in the film, that you couldn’t or wouldn’t do with a grittier comic book adaptation. It’s also been interesting seeing how much information an audience can take in at one time.
The visuals continue inashort clip where Chris Evans — who reportedly accepted another comic book role in Captain America — throws Cera into a building and celebrates with an improvised “Boom!” and bicep-pump. Evans told Wright he was glad the moment made the trailer.
This is straight from the books, this shot. Chris just sent me an email saying that he was very pleased that “Boom!” made it into the trailer. I said, if you don’t say “Boom!” when you throw your shield at Hitler’s face in Captain America, I want my money back.
Wright admits that Cera is not the typical choice for a comic book action hero but says that’s exactly what made him perfect for Scott Pilgrim.
What’s brilliant about him is that he’s the ultimate underdog. I remember reading once someone saying Chris Evans should play Scott Pilgrim. To me, it’s much more satisfying and amusing to see Michael fight Chris Evans rather than a Chris Evans-type fight Chris Evans. Michael being a flaming sword-wielding bad-ass is the ultimate wish fulfillment, to me. Michael’s perfect and by him coming from a more naturalistic place, it makes his transformation into bad-ass more satisfying.
Universal has debuted the official teaser trailer for Edgar Wright’s Scott Pilgrim vs. the World based on Bryan Lee O’Malley’s comic book series. The movie version stars Michael Cera, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, and Chris Evans — who is certainly piling up the comic book movie adaptations on his resume. CLICK HERE TO WATCH IT!
