Rex Features

Chris Evans has joined the cast of Edgar Wright's comic book adaptation Scott Pilgrim Vs The World.

Evans, whose credits include Sunshine and Fantastic Four, will play skateboarder-turned-actor Lucas Lee, according to Ain't It Cool.

The film follows the story of Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera), who has to overcome seven evil ex-boyfriends to win the heart of his dream girl Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead).

Kieran Culkin was last week confirmed for the role of Pilgrim's gay roommate Wallace Wells.
