This is not a drill! This is happening!

After much musing over the years about there being potential for an anime adaptation of ‘Scott Pilgrim’, I’m thrilled to say one is IMMINENT, with the whole cast back together and… you are going to lose your minds. One of the proudest, most enjoyable achievements of my career was assembling the dynamite cast of Scott Pilgrim. Since the film’s release in 2010 we’ve done Q&As and charity read throughs, but there was never the occasion to reunite the gang on an actual project. Until now...

10 years ago today #ScottPilgrimVsTheWorld was released. Looking back on this magical voyage, I'm even more grateful to have made a crazy movie with Universal with THIS cast & crew. To thank all the fans this last decade, I give you the epicness of these behind the scenes photos. First day of the shoot, March 30th, 2009. Cinespace Studios, Toronto. #ScottPilgrimIs10

Where to even begin with iconic composer Ennio Morricone? He could make an average movie into a must see, a good movie into art, and a great movie into legend. He hasn't been off my stereo my entire life. What a legacy of work he leaves behind. RIP.

Loved 'Parasite', but haven't seen much other Korean cinema? Here's some suggestions to dive into another cinematic world. First up, earlier masterpieces by Bong Joon Ho: Memories Of Murder, The Host, Mother, Snowpiercer (unjustly buried by Weinstein) & Okja. Park Chan-wook's canon is amazing (much of them shot by good friend Chung Chung-hoon) such as (should have been Oscar nominated) sumptuous masterpiece 'The Handmaiden', not to mention classic neo noir revenge trilogy like 'Sympathy For Mr Vengeance', 'Oldboy' & 'Lady Vengeance'.
