Edgar Wright must have gotten his wish from yesterday, because because Terry Moore reported a Sigourney Weaver sighting at the "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World" premiere last night. Pictures were posted, reactions were tweeted and Wright himself got to talk to Rivers Cuomo.
At some point down the line, we'll likely be seeing an "X-Men: First Class" premiere attended by Edi Gathegi, judging from the news this week that he'll play Darwin in the film. The character's creator Ed Brubaker posted his thoughts on the subject, which you can read after the jump along with news about what Mark Millar's working on, Ben Templesmith's new fashion pledge and a crucial question to contemplate if you ever meet up with Sam Raimi's people.
