    VIDEO: Asa on the “Amazing Fun” of ‘Ender’s Game’

    In a video published just a few days ago from an interview done at last year’s Young Hollywood Awards, where Asa Butterfield received the Breakthrough Award, he talks a bit about filming Ender’s Game and what he was doing in LA at the time of the awards.

    I’ve just finished filming Ender’s Game and I’m over here to do all the motion capture for that, it’s various training routines or fighting in zero g, which is amazing fun to film.

    He’s also got a hilarious story about the mispronunciation of his name. Watch it in the video below!

    Red Carpet Tips has posted a brief video interview with Asa Butterfield at the Young Hollywood Awards and they talk to him about what he’s wearing and how he did his hair.

    Now, some of you are probably wondering, Valentine, why are you wasting our time with this silliness? Just bear with me.

    While some of you may find it totally irrelevant to be listening to Asa’s red carpet tips, what’s interesting about this video is that it’s a good way for us to hear the change in Asa’s voice and see the difference in his physique.

    Most people trying to get to know Ender before the movie comes out inevitably end up watching Hugo, which was Asa’s last movie. The problem with that is that while the movie just came out last year, it was filmed in June 2010, which was a full two years ago and done when Asa was only 13.

    Compare photos and you’ll see he looks very different.

    The last time we posted video of an interview with Asa was in January when he attended the Critic’s Choice Awards. Compare that with how deep his voice is in that interview to the red carpet video above and you can definitely notice a difference. Compare the red carpet video with clips or interviews during the filming of Hugo and you’ll see a more obvious difference in pitch.


    So just how does one get to know Asa Butterfield as he’ll be in Ender’s Game if he hasn’t done anything since the award-winning Hugo?

    With red carpet fashion report videos, of course. Asa looks like he’d like to be anywhere else in the world than talking hair gel and clothes with the reporter, but that just makes the video that much cuter. His advice for young actors?

    “Get your mum to dress you.”

    Asa Butterfield Accepts Breakthrough Award at Young Hollywood Awards

    Asa Butterfield, who is currently in Los Angeles finishing up Ender’s Game, attended the Young Hollywood Awards last night where he was awarded the Breakthrough Award of 2012. Congratulations!

    Fellow Ender’s Game castmates Moises Arias and Hailee Steinfeld also attended the event.

    Since Asa has so recently been filming, you can get a nice, high res look at how his hair will probably be in the movie (non-Instagram!)
