Robert Pattinson Was Almost an Evil Ex, and Other Auditions
In an interview with Vanity Fair , Wright revealed that a few future stars would audition for Scott Pilgrim vs. The World . One of those was Betty Gilpin, GLOW breakout and The Hunt star, who auditioned to play drummer Kim, alongside Oscar nominee Rooney Mara and The Big Sick star Zoe Kazan . Wright said:
“Sometimes there will be an [actor] I see… Like when I saw Betty Gilpin in GLOW . I was like, ‘Why does this woman look familiar? She’s amazing, oh, my God. Why do I know her? Why does that name sound familiar?’ And it’s like, ‘Oh yeah, she read for Scott Pilgrim .’ That’s what I do feel quite good about,” he said, “because I looked at my notes again and I had written by Betty Gilpin: ‘She’s great.’ At least I feel good about the fact that even if people lost out on the roles… there’s a lot of people who were kind of next.”
