It's official - after one season and rave reviews, Netflix has made the decision to cancel Scott Pilgrim Takes Off. Last year, fans of the comic book series were treated to a reboot of the beloved Scott Pilgrim vs The World, this time in animated form. The show received an impressive 96% on Rotten Tomatoes, solidifying its place as a fan favorite.
Based on Bryan Lee O'Malley's graphic novels, Scott Pilgrim Takes Off brought back Michael Cera in the lead role of Scott Pilgrim and Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Ramona Flowers. The show followed Scott's quest to win over Ramona's heart by defeating her seven evil exes. Fans were thrilled to see the entire original cast from the live action film return, including Alison Pill, Anna Kendrick, Brie Larson, Chris Evans, Aubrey Plaza, Ellen Wong, Jason Schwartzman, Satya Bhabha, and Kieran Culkin.
Unfortunately, despite its success, creator Bryan Lee O'Malley has announced that there will not be any more episodes of Scott Pilgrim Takes Off. In a reflection on the show's one year anniversary, O'Malley expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to work with such a talented cast and crew. He also revealed that the decision to cancel the show was not a surprise, as they had always intended for it to be a self-contained story.
"We pretty much put everything we had into this one season," O'Malley shared with Rolling Stone. "While I never say never, it would take a lot of miracles for a second season to happen. Right now, we don't have any official plans or ideas for a sequel series."
Fans may be disappointed by the news, but O'Malley assures them that the show was always meant to be a one-season project. He also joked that if any brilliant ideas for a second season come up, they may consider it in the future. For now, he is fully invested in promoting and sharing the existing season with the world.
Scott Pilgrim Takes Off is currently available to stream on Netflix. And while there won't be any more episodes, fans can still enjoy the one season and relive the magic of the original cast reprising their roles.
