Who: Mary Elizabeth Winstead
Plays: Ramona V. Flowers, Scott Pilgrim’s true love
On rehearsals: “We’d come to work, have physical training in the morning, go off to kung fu training, have a couple hours of rehearsal, always rotating from one to another — it was like going to the coolest school ever.”
Edgar says… “Mary had been my choice for Ramona for almost two years before we started filming. She has a very sunny disposition as a person, so it was interesting to get her to play a version of herself that was broken inside. She’s great in the film because she causes a lot of chaos but remains supernaturally grounded.” (Source)

In an interview with this months issue of Total Film, the actress has gone into further detail about her role as Ramona Flowers in the upcoming movie which is set to be released on 13th August later this year!
On What She Thinks About Michael Cera:
“He’s like the coolest guy ever. I feel so lucky to be able to work with him because he’s so sweet and such a hard working actor. He’s really one of a kind!”
On Ramona Flowers Ever Changing Hair Color:
“It’s been cool for me! I’m more used to this than I am my normal hair now, so I’m going to be extremely bored with myself when this is over!”
On Weilding A Giant Hammer:
“I get to use it like a really cool weapon, kung-fu style. It was really fun to get to learn that and execute it in a way that looks cool on screen. It feels really rewarding. It was tough, but I definitely felt tough and crazy!”
On What She Thinks Of The Movie:
“The stuff I’ve seen so far is just ridiculous, it looks so awesome. There’s so much going on in this movie as it is. It’s going to be super fast-paced and crazy, and there’s going to be so much to take in. They’ve done a great job…”
In what it’s dubbing “Scott Pilgrim vs. Comic-Con,” Universal is making sure that “Scott Pilgrim vs. the World” will have its presence felt at the convention in advance of the movie’s Aug. 13 release.
Starting Thursday afternoon and running though the weekend, “Pilgrim” will take over the area across from the convention center near and in the Hilton Gaslamp to create an “immersive experience.” One of the experiences will be a “Pilgrim” room with a DJ spinning tracks and more importantly … a make-your-own-T-shirt stand where cast members will help construct shirts for fans.
That’s right: Stars Cera, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Anna Kendrick and even director Edgar Wright will take shifts to dress you.
“Pilgrim” will also be the centerpiece of Universal’s Thursday afternoon panel in Hall H. “Paul,” the studio’s sci-fi comedy about two geeks traveling to a comic convention, will bring Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, among other cast members, on stage.
So that basically means that Wright, Pegg and Frost will be on stage together. Fans of “Shaun of the Dead” and “Hot Fuzz” rejoice!
UPDATE: More info. on the cast appearance via Comic Con–
6:00-7:00 Universal: Scott Pilgrim vs. the World— Genre-bending filmmaker Edgar Wright (Hot Fuzz), graphic novel author Bryan Lee O’Malley, and the cast of Universal Pictures’ Scott Pilgrim vs. the World provide a sneak peek of summer 2010′s epic of epic epicness.
