Actress, singer-songwriter and dancer Victoria Justice’s career is steadily on the rise with her movie debut “Fun Size.”
“Fun Size” stars Justice with Chelsea Handler and Johnny Knoxville.
“It’s obviously geared toward teenagers and adults.
“I think this movie is a perfect transition for me because it is slightly edgier and more mature, ” Justice said.
Undecided major Ronald Juarro is looking forward to the release of the movie saying, “It seems to be a funny Halloween movie compared to the usual flicks that are out there for this time of the year.
“It seems to be more for teenagers but looks like it has material that I would find amusing and it doesn’t hurt that Johnny Knoxville and one of the main actors from Project X are in it.”
Hailing from Hollywood Fla., Justice began her career appearing on television commercials.
Victoria’s character, Wren, plays the daughter of Chelsea Handler.
Her plans of attending her high school crush’s Halloween party are quickly shattered when her mother puts her in charge of babysitting her little brother Albert.
In the midst of Wren’s social life meltdown, she loses sight of Albert while they are out trick-or-treating. Frantic to find her little brother, Wren searches high and low and soon finds herself living the wildest night of her life.
After viewing the trailer, it is apparent that this film’s target demographic is geared toward a slightly older audience than her usual work.
In the movie, Justice dresses up for the fun of Halloween as The Wizard of Oz’s Dorothy.
“My character Wren ends up going as Dorothy. Life imitating art, I guess,” Justice said.
Aside from her dancing and singing careers, Victoria has been focusing on her acting career. Starting off at the age of eight, the now 19 year old has come a long way since her commercial acting days.
She describes her first acting opportunity saying, “My first job ever was an Ovaltine commercial, and I think back then, I was eight years old, I was so excited. It was my first audition and I ended up booking it and to me, that was like the biggest break anyone could ever have. I was like, ‘Wow, I’m going to be in an Ovaltine commercial, this is so cool’.”
“Fun Size” is set to be released in theaters Friday.
