Christopher Mintz-Plasse Interview For ‘Fright Night’
Aug 20th
Senior Charlie Brewster (Anton Yelchin) finally has it all going on: he’s running with the popular crowd and dating the most coveted girl in his high school, Amy (Imogen Poots). In fact, he’s so cool he’s even dissing his best friend (Christopher Mintz-Plasse). But trouble arrives when Jerry (Colin Farrell) moves in next door. He seems like a great guy at first, but there’s something not quite right—but everyone, including Charlie’s mom (Toni Collette), doesn’t notice. After observing some very strange activity, Charlie comes to an unmistakable conclusion: Jerry is a vampire preying on the neighborhood. Unable to convince anyone, Charlie has to find a way to get rid of the monster himself in this Craig Gillespie-helmed revamp of the comedy-horror classic. ‘Fright Night’ hits cinemas August 19th in the US, and September 2nd in the UK. Check out my quick interview with Christopher Mintz-Plasse for the film below.
In the original film, Evil Ed was the annoying best friend, but he’s much more layered in this version. Was that in the script?
Christopher Mintz-Plasse: It was definitely in the script. Marti Noxon really wanted to discover the friendship between Charley and Ed. He was fantastic in the 80’s film, but he was loud and zany, and that energy just wasn’t right for this script, so it was really fun to play the polar opposite to what Stephen Geoffrey’s did in the original. So I just took it the more toned down route. We got to improv a lot as well so that was amazing – hopefully we get a few laughs there.

What was it like playing a suburban, American teenager?
Imogen Poots; It was really cool. I think it has to stem from my fascination with all things American. I was brought up with American television, which was very accessible in the UK. But also I felt a need and a want to embody that girl, whoever she was, and understand her. If you’ve read enough American literature and were educated on American films and cinema, then you want to have that opportunity to dismiss your own innate British identity for a short while. It was awesome, I loved it.
Amy is depicted as one of the ‘cool girls.’ I think she’s always been quite popular at school, she’s always had a solid friendship group, she’s bright, she’s brought up well. I think her relationship to Charlie is a surprise to her friends – he’s pretty much regarded as geeky and nerdy. But she finds that endearing, hence their relationship. I think different aspects of their characters make them compatible, in quite a strange way.
At first Amy just perceives Charlie’s insecurities about Jerry ridiculous and ludicrous. I’m sure she thinks it may be an underlying jealousy, because Jerry, you know, he’s a bit of a looker (laughs). I feel she believes that it’s one of Charlie’s many adventures.
