Michael Cera (born June 7, 1988) is a Canadian actor best known for his roles as George Michael Bluth on the Fox sitcom Arrested Development from 2003 to 2006, Evan in the 2007 comedy film Superbad, Paulie Bleeker in the 2007 comedy-drama film Juno, Nick O'Leary in the 2008 romantic comedy film Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist and as Scott Pilgrim in the 2010 comedy film Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.

Cera appeared in a cameo as a sex surrogate in a parody of "Her", called "Me", on January 25, 2014. He was impersonated by Taran Killam on October 23, 2010 during the opening monologue, and on February 11, 2012 and April 7, 2012, both during the "Bein' Quirky with Zooey Deschanel" sketch.

Cera also hosted a 2007 special with musical guest Yo La Tengo called Saturday Night Live on Strike, an event held at New York's Upright Citizen's Brigade theater that was not televised due to the 2007-08 Writers Guild of America Strike, which kept many television programs-including SNL-from broadcasting new episodes from November 2007 to February 2008.
