Mary Elizabeth Winstead Inspired By Wright

Mary Elizabeth Winstead has revealed that she enjoyed working with filmmaker Edgar Wright.

The actress takes on the role of Ramona in Wright's big screen adaptation of popular comic series Scott Pilgrim vs The World. And Winstead admits that she was inspired by Wright's passion for the project.

Speaking to Collider the actress said: "For one thing, he’s more passionate about film than almost anyone else I know with the exception of Quentin Tarantino probably.

"They’re equally matched I think as far their passion and pure joy of films. He sets this bar of greatness and he expects perfection out of everyone because he wants to make an amazing film and he wants it to be the best it could possibly be.

"He’s such a perfectionist but in a way that’s charming, fun, not mean, and he’s not a task master. You want to be great because you know you can be with his help and with his guidance and that’s inspiring."

Scott Pilgrim vs The World is the first movie for the actress since she led the cast in Make It Happen back in 2008. She has already completed work on The Thing and has been linked to The F-Word.

Scott Pilgrim vs The World is released 25th August.
