Hollie Hawkes (b. 1978) is a 26-year-old who works with Kim Pine at the local video store, No-Account Video.
History[]
Scott Pilgrim graphic novels[]
She first appears in Volume 2, working at the video store with Kim, and subsequently appears at both Clash at Demonhead shows through to Volume 3. She lives with Joseph, and Kim Pine moves in with them in Volume 4. Hollie becomes a regular member of the gang, hanging out with them at Sneaky Dee's on several occasions. In The Wonderful World of Kim Pine, Kim is venting to her about her roommates. In Volume 5, she sleeps with Kim's boyfriend Jason, causing Kim to hate her and dump Jason. Hollie seems to be a foil to Kim, considering her sunny disposition.
Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game[]
Hollie appears in the video game as a background character, and a vendor (works at the same video store as in the graphic novels).
Scott Pilgrim Takes Off[]
Hollie appears in "Ramona Rents a Video", the third episode of Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, where she is seen working at No-Account Video along with Kim. There, she is prone to lazing around and tells Kim when there is a customer.
When Roxie Richter pays a visit to fight Ramona who is visiting the store to investigate Scott's disappearance, Hollie watches on as Ramona and Roxie fight. She later gets bored and says to Kim that she is "taking her fifteen". Hollie later appears in "The World Vs Scott Pilgrim" where she appears at the end with Kim who both leave No-Account Video after it closes down. They both enter and then swiftly leave Second Cup after seeing Lucas Lee working there.
Description/Appearance[]
Hollie Hawkes is shown at the counter when Kim Pine enters, Hollie Hawks is shown having short black hair, that has somewhat side bangs style, and has two strands on each side bang hanging, and the lower body of her hair sways sideways, while the front ones sway frontwards.
She has black irises or eyes, and fair skin, and as we can see she wears purple eyeshadow, first at the counter scene, she wears a green turtleneck sweater, and it doesn’t really show the lower part of her body, but we can assume she’s wearing pants and some turquoise shoes or boots since it is shown in the comic rather than the anime, in some appearances she wears different clothes.
She seems to always have a neutral or blank expression.
Trivia[]
- Hollie doesn't have a last name in the books, but author Bryan Lee O'Malley says, "Hollie's last name is Hawkes, Joseph's starts with a Z, but that's just in my head, they don't have last names in the books."
- Although playing a somewhat important part in Volume 5 when she and Kim stop being friends, she doesn't actually appear in the book (although we can assume that it's her who presents Scott with his birthday cake, since it's her apartment).
- She makes a brief appearance in the Chaos Theatre at the end of Volume 6.
- Oddly, her age is stated as "26 years old" in Volume 2, but in the character guide at the start of Volume 4 she is "25 years old".
- Her name is a reference to the song "Holly Hox, Forget Me Nots" by Saves the Day.
- Strangely, in the theatrical film, she is mentioned by Julie as one of Scott's Exes along with Lisa. According to Edgar Wright, she and Joseph were the hardest to not have in the movie as they were such great characters.
