Film career
Kristen began to interrupt with rather minor roles on the stage. In 2000, the situation changed and the actress starred in a movie for the first time. Her first work in the film “Polish Wedding”, however, remained almost invisible. Later, the actress got the role of Becky Thatcher in the famous production of “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer”, and also participated in several television shows. And besides that, periodic girls came across small roles in television films. The finest hour came after Kristen was approved for the lead role of Veronica in the eponymous TV series “Veronica Mars”, which was released in 2004. In the film, Bell played the sheriff’s daughter, who lived a completely ordinary life with fairly standard teenage problems, in general, the girl was content and happy. However, everything changed when the girl’s best friend was found murdered in her own house. In this detective tape, Kristen played along with actor Jason Dohring, Enrico Colantona, and Francis Capra, who brilliantly coped with their roles.
“While filming Veronica Mars,” says Kristen, “I almost got a real nervous breakdown. And now, instead of going to a party with my friends after every nervous day, out of habit, I just go to bed! Of course, it’s not so fun, but I know exactly what these 8 hours of sleep cost in the profession of an actor. And during the so-called “blockages at work” I do meditation for at least 10 minutes every day. ” However, the actress considers the banal switching off of the cell phone to be another way of calming down. The girl puts on calm quiet music, for example, Mozart or Aos Li, and in a few minutes, she is ready to start working again.
After the release of the series on television, Kristen Dell became famous overnight and quite in demand. Tempting offers with roles in the cinema began to pour in one after another. The directors simply lined up for the actress. From that moment on, Kristen played the main role.
In 2006, the actress worked with Christina Milian and Ian Somerhalder as Matty on a low-budget film. It was a fantastic horror film, a remake of the Japanese Pulse, directed by Jim Sonzero. In the tape, the entire plot shouted that “you don’t have to sit around your computer on the Internet all day and night.” Further, she worked in the famous American TV series called “Heroes”. At the same time, Kristen managed to play the main roles of Sarah, Cynthia, and another Sarah in the comedy film In Flight, which was produced by Judd Apatow in 2008, as well as in The Formula of Love for Prisoners of Marriage and the film This is a Divorce! in 2009. By the way, the last tape with the participation of Timothy Hutton, Justin Long, and Meg Ryan, narrated how a rather influential woman lawyer found out about her husband’s infidelity, locked him in the closet, and held him hostage until she changed her mind. Her slender plan was destroyed by the same mistress and a couple of robbers.
In 2010, Kristen played in a duet with Josh Duhamel in the film with a romantic touch “Once Upon a Time in Rome” by Mark Stephen Johnson. The script for this film was written by the director himself, as well as by David Weissman and David Dimon. The film attracted attention, even though it was not famous for having actors of the first magnitude. The picture was distinguished by a rather good and positive story, which was saturated with a certain fairy tale.
