One-on-One with Vincent Kartheiser
16 Magazine
The hottest movie guy on the planet talks about life, acting and Masterminds


Q: What was your character like in Mastermind like?

VINCENT: I play Ozzie Paxton - like Ozzie & Harriet. He's a real rebel and he's always doing nutty things. One morning he drives his sister to school, but what he doesn't know is the school has been taken over by thugs. He sticks around and deals with the people - he goes from rebel to hero.

Q: Who are your co-stars in the film?

VINCENT: Patrick Stewart from Star Trek and Brenda Fricker who won an Oscar for 'My Left Foot'. Patrick plays the villan thug -but he's a real villan, not like the stupid ones in 'Home Alone'. And Brenda plays the principal.

Q: Was it scary working with such respected actors?

VINCENT: It's hard to say. I started working on the movie nine months ago, and I'm at the age where you go through a lot of changes in nine months. Back then I was a little overwhelmed. Now, I look at other actors as my equals.

Q: Did you learn anything while you were filming Alaska, that you were able to bring to Masterminds?

VINCENT: Actually, the characters are very similar. I think I've learned that I'm someone who can get a job done, who acts like a professional and who doesn't screw around.

Q: Do you still live in Minnesota?

VINCENT: Yes. I'm still living at home. But I'm preparing to go to UCLA for college soon. They have a great film program.

Q: Moving to Los Angeles - that will be quite the cultural shock!

VINCENT: I know. The LA scene can be a frightening thing. I was nervous about college, because it would be so easy to fall into the partying trap. But I dont think I ever could. The thing about the people in LA they think they know a whole lot. But really, they're just confused and lost. They're not rocks they're mudslides. And I'm planning on building a more solid foundation for myself.

Q: What movies, books and music are you into lately?

VINCENT: I'm still listening to Tool and Morphine. As far as movies, I just watched Bob Roberts, starring Tim Robbins, on video. And books - I'm getting into this Fantasy kick. I just finished reading 'Steppenwolf' by Herman Hesse.

Q: And we have to ask you, are you dating anyone?

VINCENT: No

Q: What would you say is the best part of being an actor?

VINCENT: I think the true reward is being able to look at good work. And of cource traveling.

Q: Do you like to watch the movies that you've made?

VINCENT: Oh I didn't say that! I'm not exactly there yet!
