Vanessa Hudgens will be hopping from one side of Canada to the other this year as she’ll soon be joining Emily Browning and Abbie Cornish in Vancouver to film Sucker Punch.
The 20-year-old actress, who’s currently in Montreal filming Beastly with hunk Alex Pettyfer, dished to MTV that she couldn’t be more thrilled with the role of Blondie.
Vanessa shared, “I’m extremely excited. When I read about the project I was like, ‘That’d be great, but its not going to happen’…and now it actually is!”
Director Zack Snyder is equally as thrilled that Vanessa is going to be in his movie. He told InStyle UK, “She understood immediately what I was trying to do with the movie and has the acting chops to pull it off; her dancing background gives her the physicality to be an action star; and let’s face it, she is also beautiful.”
Sucker Punch is the story of young girl, Baby Doll (Browning) who is institutionalized by an abusive stepfather. In order to survive in this new setting, the girl retreats into a fantasy world of her own creation. It all seems innocent — if exceedingly dark — enough, until the imaginary place becomes a tool which she uses to plan an escape. Jena Malone and Jamie Chung also star.
Vanessa Hudgens is taking a break from musicals for a while.
The 20-year-old actress dished to MTV on the set of her new flick, Beastly, that musicals and music aren’t in her immediate future.
She shared, “I love musicals, I really do. I grew up doing them, so it’ll always have a place in my heart … at the same time, it’s nice to be able to separate the two and just be able to focus on films. It’s a lot of fun playing different characters and taking on new journeys.”
Vanessa continued, “Honestly, I’m kind of taking a break from music right now. I’m just focusing on films and acting. I feel like when I’m doing something I really want, [I] focus on that and try to not spread myself all over the place.”
Miss Hudgens is currently filming Beastly in Montreal, Quebec.
Vanessa Hudgens has fun on the cover of the August 2009 issue of Sugar magazine.
The 20-year-old actress dished with the mag that she couldn’t stop crying on the last day of High School Musical. She shared, “The last day of HSM was horrible. I couldn’t stop crying. Having to say goodbye to my close friends was so painful.”
But Vanessa would love to work with on-and-off screen boyfriend Zac Efron again. She shared, “Not right now but sometime in the future it would be nice to work together again.”
Alex Pettyfer keeps his arm wrapped around on-screen love interest Vanessa Hudgens on the set of their upcoming flick, Beastly, in Montreal, Quebec on Sunday afternoon (June 21).
Beastly follows a popular kid with a mean streak who ditches a date. His date, Kendra (Mary-Kate Olsen), turns out to be a witch who curses him to become everything he hates. The grotesque transformation leaves him with the seemingly impossible task of finding true love to break the ugly spell.
Well this isn’t exactly a High School Musical or Full House… Vanessa Hudgens and Mary Kate Olsen look like you’ve never seen them before on the set of Beastly - a modern-day take on the Beauty and the Beast tale which follows a hot but egotistical New York teen who is transformed into a hideous monster so that his outer appearance resembles his inner nastiness.
I’m guessing Vanessa and Mary Kate aren’t beasties in the film, but you’ve got to admit that they don’t exactly look like beauties either…
