Steven Strait and Pell James Discuss "Undiscovered"

Thursday August 25, 2005
Pell James has apparently fallen under the same spell that's got teen girls searching like crazy for info on newcomer Steven Strait. His first film role was in the Disney superhero movie, "Sky High," and now as a frustrated singer/songwriter in Lions Gate Films' "Undiscovered," Strait's bound to stir up even more interest.

Onscreen couple James and Strait sat down to talk about working on the romantic comedy/drama, how they handled working with acting newbie Ashlee Simpson, and what's up next (James has "Zodiac," Strait has "The Covenant" and "Deal").

    Ashlee Simpson Interview - "Undiscovered"
    Ashlee Simpson tackles her first major acting role as a wannabe singer/actress in "Undiscovered" co-starring Steven Strait, Pell James, and Kip Pardue. Simpson, who's back to blonde for now, said she didn't want to be the star of a film but part of an ensemble instead, and that's why she picked the role of Clea in "Undiscovered."

    In this interview, Simpson talks about acting versus singing, keeping fit, being compared to her sister Jessica, and the rumor she'd like to do another "Saturday Night Live."
