Scott Pilgrim has us seeing sparks all over again. Netflix on Saturday released the official trailer for Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, an animated series based on Bryan Lee O’Malley’s popular graphic novels. The trailer was revealed as part of the show’s New York Comic Con panel.
Per the official logline, the anime-style series begins when “Scott Pilgrim meets the girl of his dreams, Ramona Flowers, and discovers he must defeat her seven evil exes in order to date her. But this time, things get even more complicated. Scott Pilgrim Takes Off revisits and reimagines the beloved cult classic, taking Ramona Flowers, her evil exes, Scott, and his friends off on a mysterious new action-packed journey to find love. (And trust us, even after watching this trailer, you can’t possibly imagine how “complicated” they become. Buckle. Up.)
