Our first look at Ramona's final big bad evil ex? Who could be #7?

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I know there's been some question as to why there's so much Scott Pilgrim coverage on the site recently... that's actually an easy answer. Because there's a constant drip of news thanks to Edgar Wright's Photo A Day he's doing on his MySpace blog. We haven't covered every single photo... there have been good ones with him up on wires, new Bryan Lee O'Malley art, etc... But when really cool stuff shows up, I feel compelled to post about it... Frankly, because I'm a fan of the material and I'm a fan of the director and am INSANELY curious what he's going to deliver. I have no earthly idea what this movie is going to look like or how you make a live action version of the comic and keep the tone the same. That's fascinating to me.

Now, today's photo reveals an eyeball and a number 7, which would lead me to believe this is Romona Flowers' Big Bad, her final evil 7th boyfriend that is pulling the strings and making Scott's life a living hell. O'Malley's fifth of six Scott Pilgrim books came out today, so I can't speak to that as I haven't seen it yet, but as far as I know this could be our first indication on what they're going for for the evil 7th boyfriend.



As sneaky as that is, the first thought that came to mind when I saw that was...



He's got the Coppola hairy wrists and bushy eye-brow. I'm pretty sure that's Jason Schwartzman and I'm not alone. He's already been called out in the comments on Edgar's MySpace page.

What do you think? Schwartzman? If so, how do you think he fits in with the rest of the cast and, more interestingly, how do you think he, as a personality, fits in with O'Malley's world?
