Born on June 7, 1988 in Ontario, [[Canada, Eh?]], Michael Cera's career started in Canadian children's TV doing voiceover work for cartoons as well as live action comedies. His first major role in the U.S. was in the hit comedic show ''[[Arrested Development (TV series)|Arrested Development]]''. From there, Cera's career began to skyrocket, as Hollywood realized this guy was good at playing characters with an almost [[Peanuts|Charlie Brown]]-esque tone to them, and as the saying goes, [[A Worldwide Punomenon|"que Cera, Cera."]]
As a side note, he apparently liked the fight training he went through to prepare for ''[[Scott Pilgrim vs. the World]]'' so much that he's now [[Took a Level In Badass|studying martial arts for real]]. [[Hidden Badass|You have been warned]].
=== Notable roles: ===
* ''[[Arrested Development (TV series)|Arrested Development]]'': George-Michael Bluth
* ''[[The Berenstain Bears]]'': Brother Bear
* ''[[Braceface]]'': Josh Spitz, Sharon's younger brother.
* ''[[Childrens Hospital]]'': The PA announcer.
* ''[[Juno]]'': Paulie Bleeker
* ''[[Nick and
* ''[[Youth in Revolt]]'': Nick Twisp and Francois Dillinger
* ''[[Scott Pilgrim vs. the World]]'': Scott Pilgrim
Line 24:
* [[Hipster]]: Related to his [[Typecasting]] -- of the works in the "[[Film]]" section on the trope page, he's in three.
* [[I Am Not Leonard Nimoy]]: Partially as a result of [[Typecasting]] causing him to play practically the same character in every film.
* [[Older Than They Look]]: He doesn't seem to have aged at all since ''[[Arrested Development (TV series)|Arrested Development]]'' started.
* [[Only So Many Canadian Actors]]: Avoided. The first and thus far only Toronto-based production he's been in was ''Scott Pilgrim''.
* [[Poor Man's Substitute]]: At first, Jesse Eisenberg could probably be considered his poor man's substitute, but now it's almost reversed, with Eisenberg getting nominated for an Oscar for ''[[The Social Network]]''.
