Sara Paxton stars in the new comedy Superhero Movie. Kidzworld had a chance to talk to this busy, young actress.
Sindy: Hi Sara! Nice to talk to you again. You've been pretty busy lately! Can you tell us about your new flick, Superhero Movie?
Sara Paxton: Yeah! It's basically by the same people who did Airplane, Naked Gun and all the Spiderman, so the main character is the Dragonfly and I'm like the Mary Jane character, Jill Johnson.
Sindy: What was it like on set? Any crazy stories?
Sara Paxton: It was really fun on set! Even though there was a script, we wouldn't really stick to it. We'd do a couple takes of the script version, and then the director and producer would get all of these funny ideas and want to do this or try this and they had me doing all sorts of funny things. It was kind of hard to keep a straight face.
Sindy: I bet! You're turning 20 this year, how do you think your career will change as you get older?
Sara Paxton: I don't know, it's weird. Even though I'm turning 20, I'll go meet with producers and they'll say "You look South Africa soon to film my first pretty adult role. It's a serious movie called Last House on the Left.
Sindy: I know you sang on Aquamarine and Darcy's Wild Life. Are hoping to release another CD soon?
Sara Paxton: Yeah, well I had a journal and turning them into songs. I'm actually writing a song for Superhero Movie right now, so hopefully that'll be on the soundtrack.
Sindy: Cool. How do you balance the music and the acting?
Sara Paxton: It's weird, because sometimes when you're acting it can be a little frustrating. I mean I love acting and it's my top priority, but sometimes you have so many creative process.
Sindy: What advice would you give to kids who want to act or sing?
Sara Paxton: Well, the way I did it was just to start taking unbelievable, but there's always one yes for every 100 noes. So keep on going, keep trying, keep on following your dream.
Sindy: Thanks Sara. We can't wait to see you in Superhero Movie!
