Anna Kendrick: Scott Pilgrim vs. The World

In a new interview with Collider.com, Anna Kendrick talked about her upcoming movie, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, where she plays sister to Michael Cera’s character.

Question: Tell us about Stacey Pilgrim?

AK: She’s Scott’s sister. I got to meet the real Stacey Pilgrim which was amazing. I basically just sort of judge Scott for all his life choices and tell him how to live his life which is fun, but I care about him too.

Does any cool action happen around you?

AK: No! Ugh. No, there’s one scene. I’m at the theater where Scott fights Matthew Patel and that was really fun. I will tell you right now Michael Cera kicks so much ass in this movie. I mean, everybody does but the bigger shock is to see Michael doing kung fu.

Who is this real Stacey Pilgrim?

AK: Oh, it’s Bryan Lee O’Malley’s sister, Stacey. Her name is Stacey but not Stacey Pilgrim.

Is she exactly like he wrote?

AK: Well, she’s half-Asian so we’re not exactly the same but she seemed really, really sweet. I was like, “You get a bad rap in these books.” But she did say that she used to give Bryan a really hard time about whoever he was dating so that’s where that came from.
