Michael Welch on Anna Kendrick’s Oscar nomination

Posted on 05. Feb, 2010 by in News

MTV’s Larry Carroll recently talked to Mike about Anna’s recent Oscar nomination for Best Support Actress for her role in Up in the Air.

“There are a lot of people in this that are capable of the kind of work that could lead to an Oscar nomination,” he said of the immensely popular series. “It doesn’t happen to many actors.”

“Anna deserves it. She has an uncanny ability to get under the skin of her characters,” Michael said of the “Up in the Air” actress, who plays Jessica Stanley in the “Twilight” films. “She really seems to understand the mindset of the girls she plays.”

“It’s almost as if she starts out with clichés that we are all familiar with, then builds the character by figuring out their world view, making them unique and personal and therefore turning them from clichés into real people,” he marveled. “Her characters are familiar, but one of a kind. It’s remarkable.”

    I want to see the humans in this. Will we see more of them? It’s not a vampire flick without the humans.
