Ender’s Game Cast Watch #3

I’m a bit late this week, but to be fair, there wasn’t that much to report about our young cast as far as social media announcements go – up until today, that is. Let’s have the good news first: Brandon Soo Hoo graduated High School. Congratulations, Brandon!

Also, Jimmy “Jax” Pinchak announced today via twitter that he will be joining castmates Asa Butterfield, Hailee Steinfeld, Abigail Breslin and Harrison Ford at Comic Con.

Meanwhile, Abigail Breslin – again breaking the record for most tweets per day – has been alternating sleeping on the couch (due to a bugger infestation of her room, no less) and celebrating half-Christmas with glittery wintery images on Instagram, while Asa Butterfield has been relaxing with his family in beautiful, sunny Greece.

Aramis Knight, on the other hand, has made an effort to make the world a better place in this years annual “One Child At A Time Celebrity Basketball Game” on June 23. For him, and I’m sure for many of the spectators, it was a dream come true.

Finally, Khylin Rhambo has announced that he is changing his name. Personally, I welcome the change, as I’m never quite sure if I’m spelling “Rhambo” correctly.

VIDEO: Khylin Rhambo and Aramis Knight React to the PSiO

Here’s a video of Khylin Rhambo (Dink) and Aramis Knight (Bean) doing a video review of the PSiO, which is a pair of audiovisual stimulation glasses that provide audio and color therapy.

Khylin and Aramis do mention Ender’s Game a bit, saying that there were some really emotional scenes that they had to do and that these glasses really would have helped them to get into character.

Unfortunately, these glasses cost $399, so unless PSiO wants to send a pair to a sci-fi movie fansite called EnderWiggin.net for review, I don’t think I’ll get to try them. *cough cough*

PHOTOS: Aramis Knight and Khylin Rhambo Attend Oscars After Party

Ender’s Game cast members Aramis Knight and Khy Rhambo attended an Oscars after party together tonight and posted photos on Instagram and Facebook.

For those of you that watched the show, what did you think? I thought it was the best Oscars production in years and Seth MacFarlane finally proved that hosts can actually make you laugh for real. Hopefully we’ll be watching next year’s ceremonies and be cheering Ender’s Game on for something!

Be sure to follow Aramis on Instagram (AramisKnight88) and like Khylin on Facebook.

Khy Rhambo Talks ‘First Family’ and ‘Ender’s Game’

While attending Byron Allen’s Launch Party, Khylin Rhambo (Dink Meeker) talked with JJ Snyder of the Red Carpet Report about his show ‘First Family‘ and ‘Ender’s Game‘.

In ‘First Family‘, Rhambo plays Charles, son of the President of the United States. The pilot was filmed earlier this year and he had nothing but good things to say about the experience. “All the cast, they’re awesome, so I’m pretty excited to see how it turns out.”

Talk quickly turned to ‘Ender’s Game‘ and Rhambo was very excited to have worked with the likes of Harrison Ford, Viola Davis, and Sir Ben Kingsley. “That was a really good learning experience for me as an actor. I’m really excited. That was my first movie so it was really cool that I got to experience that.”

When asked to explain about his role and the movie’s premise, Khylin was happy to give a quick rundown. “I play Dink Meeker and he’s like a boy genius and he’s close to the main character and we have this big journey of fighting these aliens. It’s a really cool story that I’m excited to be a part of. The books are amazing. I’m stoked, I can’t even believe this is happening.”

Snyder asked whether the formics were done with puppets or CGI and it’s not surprising that he said they never actually saw them, since an encounter like this never happens in the books. “But I saw the whole layout of them.” said Rhambo.

Bean, Dink, Alai, Petra Wrap ‘Ender’s Game’

Four key characters wrapped production on Ender’s Game this week including Hailee Steinfeld (Petra, wrapped last week), Aramis Knight (Bean), Suraj Partha (Alai), and Khy Rhambo (Dink). The cast attended a wrap party last week Saturday and today began tweeting about their filming coming to a conclusion.

Update: Conor Carroll (Bernard) wrapped today as well.

Asa Butterfield tweeted his goodbye to the three young men and Hailee Steinfeld sent a congratulatory tweet their way.

Production is winding down, but doesn’t appear to be over just yet, as actor Jimmy Pinchak (Peter Wiggin) is back in New Orleans for filming and Asa hasn’t tweeted that he’s wrapped on filming himself. Filming was originally scheduled to end on June 8.
