SAMANTHA DESMAN

Actress on the Rise

Some basic questions to start… How old are you?

I’m 14-years-old.

What’s your favorite color?

I have a lot of colors that I love, and favorite color changes all the time, but right now it’s the Dark Forrest Green.

What’s your favorite food?

I love so many different foods, I’ve really been loving Mandarin Oranges lately, so I guess I would say they’re my favorite.

Do you have any pets?

I have many pets, my mom likes to say we live in a zoo, we used to have even more, right now it’s 1 dog, 2 turtles, 4 cats, 1 frog, and a bunch of chickens, probably around 10.

What’s your favorite subject in school?

My favorite subject in school used to be Math, but now that I’ve started high school, my favorite subjects are Biology and English.

How did you get started in acting?

My older brothers had started acting before I was even born. Eventually I started too, and I really loved it and I still do.

What has been your favorite job so far?

It’s so hard to pick just one, all of my jobs have been great experiences. But if I had to pick one, it would probably be my Wells Fargo commercial, it was just so much fun, and the other kids on set were really great. I did another job, my character’s name was KK Adler, now every time I say KK in response to something, my mom will go “Adler.”

What type of acting do you prefer, stage, television, movie, commercial or voice over?

I’m not much of a theater actor, but I love any other type, commercial, television, movie, and voice over acting.

What has been your job that most people would know you for?

I’ve been noticed most for the Happier music video (“Happier” by Marshmellow). It’s really accessible, so almost anyone can see it and people seem to really like it. I find it kinda ironic that the music video is called Happier, yet it is an extremely sad music video.

What is your dream acting job?

Any job I get is great, but my dream has always been to star in a movie or TV series.

What has been your biggest challenge in your acting career?

One of the hardest things is patience, in acting you have to do a lot of waiting, whether that is about hearing if you get the job or waiting for them to need you on camera.

What actor/actress do you most want to work with?

I really love working with people my own age, but it’s a pleasure to work with anyone, one day I hope to work with Leonardo Di Caprio, that would be incredible.

What director would you most love to work with?

Right now my favorite directors are Wes Anderson and Steven Spielberg. It would be an honor to work with them, their work is incredible and one of my favorite movies is “Jurassic Park” by Steven Spielberg, they even made an animated show based on the movies called “Jurassic World Camp Cretaceous” starring one of my good friends (Paul-Mikél Williams) @pmikey3.
