LOS ANGELES — "I am a FASO kid!" the charming and talented Fil-Am actress Sam Morales, who is featured in "That '90s Show" with Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis, told us in our virtual interview.
"She auditioned again in 2019 for a vocal solo part at the FASO concert at the Walt Disney Hall. She is an incredible vocalist with a very unique voice and an extremely wide range. Unfortunately, she did not get the part because someone else had a better fit for the part. But we were so impressed by her talent that we decided to create a spot in the concert and added a song just for her. We are very proud of Sam, and we are certain that she will go places with her talent.
It was such a crazy whirlwind because I did not have an agent or a manager at all. I go to this performing arts school, which I am actually at right now, and they posted an open call on the school website. It was like, "Oh, That '90s Show, Netflix Talent Search. Just send in an introduction video of your name, your age, where you're based, what you like about the '90s, what you don't like about the '90s, and how you relate to your character.
My very first kiss with him, we were rolling, so it was like, "Action, first kiss." I'd known him for a week, so I was like, "Hi, nice to meet you. Just going to lay one on you right now." It was a really interesting introduction, but nonetheless, Max and I are close friends now. It was never awkward or anything. In between takes, we would just crack jokes, so it was nice.Oh, my gosh. My poor mom had to be on set while that was happening. She had to go, she had to leave.
How was it working also with Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis? Did you ever work with them or they just passed by? It was overwhelming, but also really exciting because it was this completely new world that I'd never been a part of before, because like I said, this is my first real credit. So being able to experience that and also see my cast for the first time in a while was really nice.The most interesting thing? That's a good question. I think that I was consistently starstruck every time I went on set because I was able to work with Debra Jo Rupp and Kurtwood.
