Booboo Stewart on "Nick Young" in WHITE FROG

Up-and-coming actor Booboo Stewart chats about his work in the leading role of Nick Young in director Quentin Lee's forthcoming feature narrative WHITE FROG.

PopStar! talks to Booboo about White Frog

In his new movie White Frog, Booboo Stewart leads an allstar cast that includes Gregg Sulkin, Harry Shum Jr., Tyler Posey and BD Wong. Booboo's character, Nick, who has a form of Autism called Asperger's Syndrome, must come together with his family and friends to deal with the untimely death of his older brother (Harry Shum Jr.).

When we asked Booboo how he approached playing a character with such a specific disability he replied, "Research, just a lot of research. Asperger's is a tough one because everyone with Asperger's, I think, acts differently. It was really difficult to narrow it down to one thing. But it’s so much fun going to set every day and being able to do that. It’s been a great challenge."
