Hudgens, 24, has moved on and now feels she has matured as an actress. “Ever since I was young, I wanted to play really heavy and intense roles and really push myself in a dramatic direction.”
She revealed how this led her to her role in thriller “Frozen Ground,” in which she plays a drug-addicted prostitute. She said, “I was like, ‘A prostitute! I can play a prostitute! This is going to be exciting.’”
Vanessa will also be starring in the upcoming gritty indie “Spring Breakers,” from “Kids” director Harmony Korine. She co-stars with Selena Gomez, Ashley Benson and James Franco.
Hudgens explained that her father convinced her to do the film. “He loved ‘Kids’ so he was really excited for the project. He didn't read the script, but when he saw that Harmony's name was attached to it he said, ‘That's going to be a really interesting project.’”
