Switching to Explicit Ills, the movie took you about a year to write. He’s already killing people with a samurai sword, so it’s already something different. I think that for him, maybe some of that stuff has been a little unfair, in that ultimately, he’s gonna blow people away. And I’m absolutely positive he’ll approach it as any actor - you’re always trying to get better, and do something different, and kind of stretch yourself.

Webber talked to us about singing for Nigel Godrich, Cera’s expanding horizons, and dealing with harsh reviews. the World, playing Stephen Stills, the front man for Pilgrim’s band, Sex Bob-omb. He’ll follow that with a prominent role in the much-buzzed-about Michael Cera project Scott Pilgrim vs. First up is his screenwriting and directorial debut, Explicit Ills (playing at the Angelika this week), an episodic narrative featuring puppy love, bad drug deals, and yoga - plus Rosario Dawson, Paul Dano, and Lou Taylor Pucci - that’s loosely based on his own experiences growing up in Philadelphia.
