Sundance 2010 Video Interview: Aaron Johnson (NOWHERE BOY)
Editor's Note: This interview was originally published on January 29th, 2010 at the Sundance Film Festival.
"In between my lunch breaks at KICK-ASS, I'd have my laptop out, and have YouTube footage of Lennon coming up, so I could copy his accent."
- Aaron Johnson
It seems almost certain that Aaron Johnson will be be a major deal in the entertainment world soon. I imagine that in a few months, his name will be considered for practically every role in his age range (he's 19, but can at least work a little higher and lower). Why do I predict an explosion of Aaron Johnson? Well the obvious reason is that Aaron is the lead in the highly-anticipated comic-book based movie KICK-ASS, the current movie of fanboys' dreams, which will be released in April. And second, he has a lot of talent, evident by his performance as a teenage version of John Lennon in NOWHERE BOY.
NOWHERE BOY plays like a coming of age drama that happens to be about John Lennon. Check out my interview with Aaron Johnson after the break. My review can be found HERE.
