MTV interview with Kevin (print)

Missed posting this while I was away. Kevin was interviewed by MTV.com. He confirms that he will do 2 films before Bonnie & Clyde, and that will shoot in November. I'm not sure what the 2 films are, since at the time this interview was posted he'd already completed Vampire and Girl Walks Into a Bar. Entitled is filming now, so that would be one of them. A Great Education is still in the "unknown development" phase and his connection to Vivaldi is still just a rumor at this point (his people say he's not attached to it). So the 2nd film most likely was Vampire and the interview must have been done before it was shot starting in mid-May.

One-time Hump Day Hottie, Kevin Zegers, is not only steaming up Miley Cyrus' latest music video for her song "Big Big Bang," but he's also bracing to become the latest hottie to play the role of the elusive criminal, Clyde Barrow in "The Story of Bonnie and Clyde." Kevin, who will star in the flick alongside Hilary Duff, told MTV News that the film is all lined up on his filming docket later this year.

"I'm gonna do two films right before that, and then I think that gonna go at the end of fall," he said. "And we'll see how all the pieces come together in terms of cast and everything with schedules and all that stuff. As of right now I'm definitely going to do that in November."

Kevin said that the film will not only focus on the romance of the two young criminals in love (Hilary will play Bonnie), but also a lot of the action. "It's much more of a sort of young action love story than the [1967] original [featuring Faye Dunaway and Warren Beaty] was," he explained. "It definitely is a younger version of that. The action is going to be a lot more hardcore than the first one was."

So, what attracted the actor, most recently known for his small role on "Gossip Girl," to the flick? "I don't know. I like to do stuff that seems like biting off more than you can chew," he said. "It seemed like a huge endeavor to make this work in a way that in a way that audience doesn't go, 'Oh I liked the original one better.'
