At this weekend’s SORORITY ROW press junket, I was lucky enough to participate in some roundtable interviews with the lovely ladies from the film. Jamie Chung, who plays Claire in the upcoming flick, has carved out a bit of a niche with some seriously butt-kicking roles (see TV’s “Samurai Girl” or DRAGONBALL EVOLUTION). Her next big role, in Zack Snyder’s SUCKER PUNCH, isn’t going to stray too far from those roots.

Chung is incredibly excited about the film, and promises that the action and fight sequences in SUCKER PUNCH are going “to put 300 to shame” as SUCKER PUNCH is “300 with a female cast.” Pre-production has been pretty intense for the ladies, as the cast has been enduring physical training for twelve weeks. The first table read for the film took place just this past Friday, and Chung was visibly amped to get going with filming.

When asked about her character Amber, Chung couldn’t give away much, just that she is one of four girls who help our main heroine (Emily Browning’s Baby Doll) escape from a mental institution they are all imprisoned in. She’ll be joined in this “great adventure” by Vanessa Hudgens, Jena Malone, and Abbie Cornish. Browning starts having fever dreams to escape the actual nightmare she’s trapped in, but those dreams end up being populated by people from her real life (including her cohorts), and start effecting the real world the girls are living in.

But the big treat in SUCKER PUNCH Chung could only allude to? When asked if all the girls play two different characters, one from reality and one from Browning’s dreams, she could only reply with a “yes, we all do.” That’s all we could get out of her, but that’s enough to get me excited for what we’re going to be seeing when this “pretty dark” film hits theaters in 2011.
