Christopher Mintz-Plasse Career

When auditioning in his film debut Superbad for the part of Fogell (a.k.a. “McLovin”), he had no professional headshots and instead took one with his camera phone. Because he was 17 years old at the time and still a minor, the law required his mother to be on set while he filmed his sex scene in the movie. After release, the film earned critical and commercial success, where many criticized Mintz-Plasse’s performance citing a highlight; Mintz-Plasse received a nomination for the MTV Movie Award for Best Breakthrough Performance.

Mintz-Plasse next appeared with Paul Rudd and Seann William Scott in 2008 David Wain’s film Role Models as Augie Farques, a nerdy teenager obsessed with medieval live-action role-playing games. Mintz-Plasse also made a small guest appearance on an episode of David Wain’s internet series, Wainy Days. He then starred as a comedic version of the biblical figure Isaac in Harold Ramis’s film Year One. Mintz-Plasse also appeared in a short film titled The Tale of RJ which ended up becoming the basis for the television series The Hard Times of RJ Berger.

The next year, Mintz-Plasse voiced Fishlegs in the animated film How to Train Your Dragon. He appeared in April 2010, in Kick-Ass as the superhero Red Mist, also known as Chris D’Amico, which was planned to be a minor role until director Matthew Vaughn saw Mintz-Plasse audition and his capabilities. Originally, Mintz-Plasse auditioned for the role of Kick-Ass, but when the producers believed that his acting was too loud and obnoxious they immediately gave him the role of Red Mist instead. He guest-starred in a May 2010 episode of Party Down as Kent, a friend of the character Roman. Mintz-Plasse performed his second voice-over that month in the film Marmaduke, as the stylized dog Giuseppe. The same year Mintz-Plasse was featured in two music videos, Kid Cudi’s Erase Me, featuring Kanye West, and the indie rock band The Soft Pack’s Answer to Yourself.

Mintz-Plasse appeared in 2011 in the remake of the 1985 film Fright Night as Evil Ed, who is the former best friend of Charley Brewster, played by Anton Yelchin. At first, he was reluctant to accept the role as it was a remake, but after reading the script he accepted and seeing the talent involved.

Mintz-Plasse then starred in a short film, “Would You”, written by his Fright Night co-star Dave Franco and premiered at the SXSW Film Festival. He was supposed to play the lead role in the CBS sitcom Friend Me and even filmed several episodes, but the series was canceled before it could air after series creator Alan Kirschenbaum killed himself. As a promotion for the video game Far Cry 3, Mintz-Plasse starred in The Far Cry Experience, a series of online videos, portraying a fictional version of himself trapped on an island controlled by a psychopathic pirate named Vaas.

Mintz-Plasse reprised his role of Chris D’Amico in the sequel Kick-Ass 2, which was released in August 2013. He found the role to be darker than any other he had played to date and hired an acting coach to help him with the more intense scenes. Mintz-Plasse made his third music video appearance in the Unknown Mortal Orchestra’s music video So Good At Being In Trouble.

Mintz-Plasse and his Kick-Ass co-star Chloë Grace Moretz starred in a short segment, “Middle School Date”, in the film Movie 43. Mintz-Plasse also had small roles in Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg’s This Is the End, playing a fictional version of himself and in the romantic comedy film The To Do List, with Aubrey Plaza.

In September 2013, Mintz-Plasse and Dave Franco set out on a week-long road trip, across America to promote the technology company LG’s “It’s All Possible” campaign for its flagship smartphone, the LG G2. The actors documented their process and broadcast it on Funny or Die. Mintz-Plasse had a supporting role in the 2014 hit comedy film Neighbors as college fraternity student Scoonie and reprised his role as Fishlegs in the animated sequel How to Train Your Dragon 2.
