BlackTree TV's Jamaal Finkley had the chance to sit down with the leads of the new movie Step Up 3D Rick Malambri and Sharni Vinson. We had a chance to talk about shooting in NY, believing in yourself and training for Step Up 3D.
RICK MALAMBRI (Luke) is a talented newcomer who is poised to make a name for himself with his leading role in "Step Up 3D ." Originally from Fort Walton Beach, Fla ., Malambri strived toward anything that dealt with the influence of art . Growing up, he loved break dancing with friends, which kept him busy and out of trouble . After high school, he was pursuing a degree in Computer Animation and Digital Media when he was approached on the street by an agent with Wilhelmina . Malambri moved to New York City in 2003 to pursue a modeling career where he secured work for D&G, Tommy Hilfiger and American Eagle .
Immediately he was walking the runways of Milan, New York and Paris, and doing photo shoots around the world . Malambri has appeared in major campaigns for Abercrombie & Fitch and Ralph Lauren and has worked with some of the most notable photographers in the world .
While on a subway during the summer of 2006, Malambri caught the eyes of a Los Angeles casting director and talent agent . They introduced themselves, and the agent told him he had the "It Factor," having movie-star good looks and a warm-hearted personality . Within minutes they suggested that he move to Los Angeles for a career in TV/film .
Malambri made that move, and soon afterwards he landed guest appearances on "Criminal Minds," "Party Down" and the hit CBS series "How I Met Your Mother ." He was tapped for the futuristic thriller "Surrogates," starring Bruce Willis, and is set to play a supporting role in the upcoming feature "We Are the Champions ."
