1. What have you been up too since the last interview?
Filmed a movie called “Super Bad”. It should be out in August. It’s the same guys who did “40 Year Old Virgin”. They have another film coming out in June called “Knocked Up”. I played a 1940’s Hollywood starlet in a Christina Aguilera Music Video. I just finished filming a guest-star on the CBS show “COLD CASE”. I did a play reading called “A Dream in Time” at The Falcon Theater. I also just worked with an incredible photographer named Brian Woodwick. We’ve been working together for ten years. We shot out at Joshua Tree last week. I think he has a website you can find if you google “woodeye photography”. I’ll send you some pictures when I get them. I think that’s about it…
2. How did you get the role in the movie Super Bad ?
I auditioned for it 4x! They kept bringing me in for different roles. Finally, when I read for the role of Nicola I made a “bold” choice and went in the office with really low pants and my thong showing…she’s supposed to be kinda slutty. I remember the girls who did that I my school. I guess it worked ’cause I got the part!
3. What was it like playing the character Nicola?
Was it fun and exciting working on the movie? It was really fun. The whole cast was freakin’ hilarious so I pretty much got paid to laugh my ass off.
4. How did you get the part on Cold Case?
Auditioned…I knew it the minute I read the script. It airs April 1st on CBS
5. Was it fun and exciting to play that part?
Absolutely. I like playing dark twisted characters who seem innocent at first.
6. What was it like working on that show?
The cast and crew were such professionals. I knew I was playing in the big leagues.
7. What do you do to prepare for a role?
I try to put myself in the situation. How would I react in each moment? Free of judgment.
8. Any techniques you use to remember lines?
Uhhhh….write them out, say them a bunch- before bed, on the treadmill, in traffic
9. What have you got lined up next?
I’m really trying to get on “Veronica Mars”. I love the show and I think they need a redhead.
10. What’s in your stereo at the moment?
Beck, Peanut Butter Wolf, Murder City Devils, Cold War Kids, Silver Sun Pickups(from my hood
)
11. What have you seen recently that you have really enjoyed?
No time…I’ll have to get back to you on that
12. What is a normal day for an actor?
Well, today I filmed a short with some friends from 7am-3pm, took a nap, worked out, rehearsed for 3 hours in a theater for my acting class, watched SNL, and here I am on the computer. Not as glamorous as it seems, eh?
13. Would you ever like write and direct a film?
Yes, I’d love to. It’s all part of my master plan, right before I win my 3rd Oscar 🙂
14.What is the short film you are doing next and what’s the play reading you are doing?
Today we filmed a short called “Check Please” about 3 actresses who are waitresses to pay the bills. I play an idealistic girl from the Midwest who isn’t as jaded as her two co-workers. Pretty quick they introduce me to the real world. I just did a play reading called “A Dream in Time” at The Falcon Theatre. It was a pleasure working with such pros as Richard Benjamin, Ed Asner, Lanie Kazan, and Paula Prentiss.
Thanks For Your Time Any Last Words
You Rock, My Aussie Pal!!!
