In order to win Ramona, Scott learns that he must defeat Ramona's "seven evil exes", who are coming to kill him. Scott Pilgrim vs. the World was planned as a film after the first volume of the comic was released. Wright became attached to the project and filming began in March 2009 in Toronto. Scott Pilgrim vs.... the World premiered after a panel discussion at the San Diego Comic-Con International on July 22, 2010.
