The princess of Norwegian pop never thought in the world that she would also become a princess on the movie screen.

– I think I was a little shocked, she says when asked what she thought when she was offered the role of Cinderella.
– I did not fully understand it, and probably still do not fully understand, Astrid Smeplass said just before the gala premiere of “Three nuts to Cinderella” – directed by Cecilie Mosli, where Astrid plays against Cengiz Al.
The two also got together in the media blitz rain that was waiting outside the Colosseum cinema in Oslo on Thursday night.

Astrid Smeplass admits that she felt lucky to get such a chance alongside her music career when the pandemic still put an end to all tournaments. “Stars align” is the term she uses, meaning that all challenges get their ideal solution.
– It was the way it was – that I could suddenly take the time to do something like that. So I certainly do not feel that it has gone beyond the music after I got the role, I have also maintained it in parallel with the recording, she says.
Naturally, the good words are loose just before the premiere when the main characters are to characterize each other:
– It is a fantastic gift to have gotten to know Cengiz and work with him. He is very inspiring and has an incredibly good work ethic. He is charismatic and caring, sees everyone on the set and …
She does not have time to say more until Cengiz breaks in:
– She is too!
– Astrid is a beautiful person to work with, not least easy to get to know. She is very good at talking to people, asking the right questions and seems very interested in the person she is talking to at all times. And it has actually also inspired me to be like her. I think we have become better people with each other, says Cengiz Al while Astrid S nods in agreement.
“Three Nuts for Cinderella” has its regular cinema premiere on 12 November
