Wallace Wells (b. July 1979)[2] is Scott Pilgrim's cool gay roommate and is one of the seven main characters in the Scott Pilgrim franchise. Wallace acts as Scott's voice of reason, with the two meeting each other in college when Wallace asks him a question during a lecture. He and Scott now live together, sharing a double bed as they are unable to afford two separate mattresses. While living together, nearly all of the furniture in their apartment is owned by Wallace. While he jokingly shows interest in Scott on several occasions, Wallace is almost always seen to be in a relationship with many other male characters throughout the series. Wallace is very open about his homosexuality, and almost always displays a snarky yet easy-going personality. While Wallace does often make fun of his friends, mainly Scott, he is shown to have a genuine sense of care towards them, expressed most prominently through his hatred of Envy Adams on Scott’s behalf. When his and Scott’s landlord gave them notice to move out, Wallace encouraged Scott to take his relationship with Ramona Flowers to the next level of maturity. Wallace is introduced as Scott's cool gay roommate in Volume 1. He meets up with Scott's girlfriend, Knives Chau, to which he proclaims that she is too good for him. After Scott meets Ramona for the very first time at Julie's party, Wallace directs him to Amazon.ca, to let Scott rent a video in the hope of meeting Ramona again. After Scott bragged about spending the previous night with Ramona, he tells Scott that he should break up with Knives. Wallace attends Sex Bob-omb's gig at Club Rockit and starts shouting at the members of Crash and the Boys. He eventually meets Jimmy, Stacey Pilgrim's boyfriend, and starts kissing him as Stacey looks on angrily. Scott Pilgrim vs. the World In Volume 2, Wallace continues to put pressure on Scott to break-up with Knives, and tells him that if he doesn't do so, he would tell Ramona all about Knives. Scott angrily tries to dismiss that they are in a relationship and he begins to rant at Wallace as he leaves the bus. Later, Ramona arrives at Scott and Wallace's Apartment and meets Wallace. Scott tells Wallace to leave which he does. file:///var/mobile/Library/SMS/Attachments/76/06/A88FFC2D-B70A-4CD5-8614-516710F51F2C/180.webp

Wallace gets shouted at by Scott after he tells him to break up with Knives. The next day, Wallace asks Scott if he is alright as he has a weird ominous feeling of something, which is revealed to be Stacey meeting Ramona. Wallace reads out his dossier on Lucas Lee to Scott, who is not paying attention. After Scott asks if he can go back to "training", Wallace tells him to do five hundred push-ups. Wallace later gets a phone call from Knives who asks if he knows where Scott is. Knives arrives at the apartment and Wallace promptly asks her to leave. Later, Scott and Wallace visit Casa Loma and meet Lucas Lee, who attacks Scott after Wallace swiftly walks away. After being thrown into Casa Loma, Wallace, Kim, Young Neil and Lucas look over Scott's body, with Wallace asking Scott if he was ok. Wallace watches Lucas get defeated after Scott tricks him into demonstrating his skateboarding skills on the rails. Wallace tells Scott to "suck it up" when he starts complaining about how his fight with Lucas was the "worst fight ever!" Wallace keeps getting calls from Scott who is playing Sonic 3, to which he asks Wallace if he knows the cheat code for the game. He tells Scott to stop calling him, to which Scott pleads him not to hang up. Wallace ends the call after asking Scott if he has anything else better to do. Wallace returns home from work, seeing Scott laying on the floor where he figures out that Envy has called Scott, which resorts to Scott panicking on the floor. Scott Pilgrim & the Infinite Sadness In Volume 3, Wallace meets up with Scott and Ramona in Pizza Pizza where he is with Other Scott. Wallace learns about Scott and Envy meeting backstage, to which Wallace replies "that unbelievable bi*ch". Wallace stops mid-way through the conversation by asking Scott if he is wearing his shirt, to which Ramona interrupts by bringing up Envy again. Wallace tells Scott that he has met someone, Mobile, to which he claims is "slightly intense". Wallace tells Ramona that they should be friends based on mutual hate. file:///var/mobile/Library/SMS/Attachments/31/01/BAEC5326-A152-420F-BDDA-B9874A2DA251/180.webp

An angry Wallace eats pizza after finding out about Scott's encounter with Envy. Wallace makes his way back to his apartment after dropping Mobile off at the bus stop, where he finds Scott sleeping outside having forgot his keys. Wallace tells Scott that Mobile is psychic, to which Scott immediately asks Wallace if he could get training from Mobile to which he dismisses. In a flashback scene, Wallace can be seen hanging out with Scott, Stephen and Envy. After getting a wrong impression of her, Wallace tells Scott that he expects to break up with her. Later, Envy asks how he met Wallace to which Scott explains that they met in university and started to hang out. Wallace continues to try to make Scott feel better following his encounter with Envy by making bacon and telling him that the past is the past and that he should get over Envy. Wallace attends Scott and Todd's skirmish at Honest Ed's where he calls Envy an "unbelievable b*tch" after she tells Wallace that Scott's handicap is that "he isn't a survivor". After Honest Ed's collapses and the skirmish results in a draw, Wallace sarcastically asks Envy if she had any more bright ideas. Wallace later witnesses Ramona and Envy's fight to which he tells Ramona to "break her horsey ol' face" which Envy responds to in anger - and tells Ramona that Envy has a small brain. After Envy leaves Toronto, Wallace proclaims to Scott that her exit is good riddance to bad rubbish. Wallace tells Scott that the world loves him and that he should look to the future with positivity.

Kieran Culkin as Wallace Wells in Scott Pilgrim vs. The World file:///var/mobile/Library/SMS/Attachments/04/04/8B32E111-1F54-4A9B-9D35-B00535878316/16.webp Step your game, Scott. Break out the L-word. Lesbian? No, the other L-word. Lesbians? file:///var/mobile/Library/SMS/Attachments/a7/07/AF14E6F5-7771-41B4-8AB9-BACE7F899598/16.webp — Wallace Wells Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (film) Wallace Wells is portrayed by Kieran Culkin, the younger brother of Macaulay Culkin. Kieran has been featured in many works such as Succession, Home Alone, The Cider House Rules, Igby Goes Down, The Dangerous Lives Of Altar Boys, The Mighty, Lymelife, and Paper Man. In the film, Wallace exhibits the uncanny ability to text information at high speed, informing Stacey about Scott Pilgrim's dating problems (Pilgrim calls him a gossipy bitch) in an instant, even while barely conscious. He also eavesdrops on Scott's phone conversations on occasion. He does not train Scott nor does he prepare Intel on his roommate's potential adversaries, but rather provides emotional support and advice from the sidelines, comforting Scott when his problems become difficult. In the movie, his desire to throw Scott out of their apartment is more apparent and immediate, although in deleted scenes he offers to let him sleep on the floor (with blinkers and earplugs to avoid seeing Wallace with his boyfriends). Wallace seems to have an 'open' relationship with Other Scott as well as with Jimmy and another unnamed boyfriend (named Chris in the deleted scenes). When Ramona disappeared during Scott’s fight with Lucas Lee (Chris Evans) (Ramona's 2nd evil Ex) and refused to call Scott back, Knives came to see if Scott was home, leading to Wallace (attempting) to hide Scott from Knives (Scott just ended up jumping out the window). Similarly to how Wallace acts within the comic book series, he despises Envy Adams in the film for her treatment of Scott and has forbidden the use of her name in his home. He drops his snarky and dry personality for a more kind and considerate persona after Envy calls Scott, attempting to offer genuine comfort to him. Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game Wallace is one of the many background characters in the game. You can also find him manning a secret shop found in World 1 that can sell you expensive items ($100 and up) which can massively boost your stats. His shop is the most useful as he sells Bionic Arms (Bionic Commando reference) which increase your power by half, and Speedy the Porcupine (Sonic the Hedgehog reference) which increases your speed by half, both items can be purchased twice. Playing the level over and over again four times is a surefire for easy bionic arms if you use the hidden Subspace routes. Wallace was added as a playable character in the March 13, 2013, DLC pack "Wallace Wells + Online Multiplayer." As a playable character, Wallace is a simple reskin of Stephen Stills, using almost all of Stephen's attack animations with slight differences (the most notable ones being a rainbow special effect in his uppercut and him kissing the enemy he grabs instead of headbutting the enemy). Wallace even uses the same Knives striker as Stephen, in which Knives jumps upwards and diagonally throws large sais at all opponents. However, Wallace has different animations while walking, celebrating a stage clear and taunting. He is the only playable character whose ending, showing him sitting on a fancy armchair, is textless. It is a parody of the "Bad Ending" in Streets of Rage, where the hero becomes the new crime lord after beating the final boss.

Wallace pitched an idea to the film’s director in Scott Pilgrim Takes Off. Scott Pilgrim Takes Off begins similarly to the two major previous adaptations of the Scott Pilgrim story, featuring Wallace as Scott's snarky cool gay roommate- however, as the story branches off when Scott goes missing, Wallace's life heads in new directions too. Wallace finds himself cast as himself in Young Neil's film adaptation of Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little Life, due to him heckling the previous actor tasked with playing Wallace (Who would later return as one of Wallace's stunt doubles). Todd Ingram, playing Scott in the movie, and his co-star Envy Adams (playing Ramona) repeatedly ruin takes due to their frequent make-out sessions, inspiring Wallace to advise the film’s director to allow his and Todd's characters to kiss instead. This leads to Wallace and Todd having an on-set fling behind Envy's back, with the two repeatedly “running lines in Todd’s trailer”. Todd ends up gaining genuine feelings for Wallace (Todd even sports a tattoo of him), whereas Wallace declares to not believe in "sparks" between two people, considering the majority of his off relationships to be nothing more than hook-ups. This breaks Todd's heart (and his vegan edge), and the movie is scrapped due to unrelated budgetary reasons. Wallace continues to support Ramona from the sidelines in her search for Scott Pilgrim, and attends Matthew Patel's musical adaptation of Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little Life, sitting among other familiar faces such as Stephen, Knives, and Kim. After the ordeal with Scott's disappearance is solved, Wallace is seen touring Paris, where he meets Mobile. The two kiss and Wallace remarks that he has felt "sparks" towards another person for the first time ever, and pursues a genuine relationship with Mobile. In the distant future, Wallace is shown as a 39-year-old, sporting glasses and grey-white hair. He lives in a lavish house with his husband (who is implied to be Mobile), and houseguest Scott Pilgrim. When we see Wallace in the future, he and Mobile appear to be in the midst of a break from talking to each other, with Mobile staying late at work for the past few weeks; however, Wallace ends up calling his husband thanks to Scott and Old Ramona’s advice and the two seemingly work through their differences, remaining happily married. Wallace kicks out Scott at some point after this and remains on good terms with Scott's then ex-wife Ramona.

Wallace as he appears in the graphic novels Wallace is a young man of a little bit above average height (being slightly taller than Scott). He has short, slightly messy dark hair and narrow eyes. In contrast to his roommate's "slacker" look, Wallace normally appears wearing more formal clothes such as buttoned-up shirts and sweaters. Wallace wears a black coat with a scarf. whenever he's outside in cold weather, Personality Wallace is very easy going and calm, filling the role of Scott's voice of reason. However, he can get angry, and openly hates Envy Adams for breaking Scott's heart, calling her an "unbelievable bitch". He is also very cocky, often walking around his and Scott's apartment in his boxers while repeatedly declaring his "hotness". He occasionally ribs Scott by joking that he’s attracted to him - calling Scott hot and saying that he’s "totally [his] bitch forever." However he never genuinely intends to pursue a relationship with Scott. Although he often finds Scott annoying, Wallace trusts and understands him extremely well. Knowing that, while Scott has mooched off of Wallace in the past, he’ll be able to fix things on his own without Wallace’s help, leading him to plan his future without taking care of Scott in mind. His ability to establish relationships and make friends stands out among the rest of the characters, since he appears to have the most friends in the series (most of whom Scott "isn't allowed to meet", according to him). This is demonstrated in Volume 3 when the reader is shown that Scott and Wallace became friends when Wallace asked Scott a single question during a lecture in college, leading to Wallace showing up at Scott's house unannounced so often that he became a fixture in Scott's life and eventually one of his closest friends and roommates. Wallace is a heavy drinker. In Volume 6, he is shown to have gotten drunk at the Chaos Theatre minutes after entering the building. He has a habit of fixing himself drinks in the middle of the day and even during work. On one occasion in Volume 4, he drinks at home with some friends before going out to dance, however Wallace gets so drunk before leaving that he falls asleep and forgets to go out altogether, with his friends leaving without him (Prompting Ramona to question if he has some form of Narcolepsy). Afterward, the first thing he does once he woke up from his drunken nap is fix himself another drink. He is very commonly shown holding a martini glass in official art and in the comic itself reflecting this personality trait. Wallace has a habit of stealing people’s boyfriends, such as Stacey Pilgrim's boyfriend Jimmy, during the first concert in the Battle of the Bands at The Rockit, and Todd Ingram in the Animated Series, after having an on-set fling with him during the production of their film. He also disapproved of Scott dating Knives and further disapproved of him cheating on her, reminding Scott that knew what it was like to be cheated on himself, he then pressured Scott to break-up with Knives.
