Asa Butterfield Compares His British Accent to His American Accent

Asa Butterfield Compares His British Accent to His American Accent

Asa Butterfield gets his close up on the latest cover Da Man magazine’s brand new issue!

The 19-year-old The Space Between Us star chatted about having to do an American accent for films, and the possibility of doing a TV show. Here’s what he shared…

On if he would sign on for a TV show: “Yeah, I think I would do some more TV. Merlin and Ashes to Ashes are the only things I’ve done so far, and I think there are some incredible TV shows on at the moment. If something great came on, I would love to get back into it.

On his biggest challenge working in America (he’s an English actor): “The biggest challenge is the accent. As an English actor here, to be successful means you really have to be able to do an American accent, and thankfully, I can, and a lot of English actors can as well. I tend to think that English actors are better at American than American actors are at English. Don’t know why. Maybe our accents are a bit harder. No, I think that’s right actually. The American accent is really kind of relaxed and easy. Once I started doing an American accent in a movie, I actually prefer to talk like that because it takes much less effort and it takes me a while to get back into my normal voice.”

Britt Robertson's 'Space Between Us' Flick Now Premiering in February

We’re going to have to wait just a little bit longer for Britt Robertson and Asa Butterfield‘s next movie.

The studio announced today that The Space Between Us will now premiere in February versus next month, in order to avoid being swallowed up by Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.

The flick centers on Gardner Elliot (Butterfield), the first child to be born on Mars and who is eager to travel to Earth, after beginning an online friendship with a street smart girl in Colorado named Tulsa (Robertson).

When he finally gets to the blue planet, scientists discover that Gardner’s organs can’t withstand Earth’s atmosphere.

Asa Butterfield Relates A Lot To His 'Miss Peregrine' Character Jacob

Asa Butterfield Relates A Lot To His 'Miss Peregrine' Character Jacob

Asa Butterfield turns into a real live bat in this inside shot from the new issue of Schon magazine.

The 19-year-old actor, who stars in Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children, opens up about the film, connecting with characters and more. Check it:

On making connections with his movie characters: “I find the characters which are the most interesting, or most relatable are the ones that have their own kind of issue or problem that they are dealing with. Whether they are the same ones that you are dealing with or not, it allows you to kind of empathise with the character.”

On relating to Jacob in Miss Peregrine: “[He's] taken out of his comfort zone. He’s kicked out of his home and is taken to a children’s home. He’s totally out of place; in the deep end. Me, growing up in this industry, thrown into this world which, when I started, I knew very little about� I’m still trying to grasp it all. I think actors are some of the most empathetic people because they have to put themselves in positions where they feel uncomfortable or they’ve got to deal with something terrible. That really allows you to feel for people in the real world who are going through struggles and are having a tough time.”

On working with Tim Burton: “There were a lot of moments where we would do a take, get the scene right, and then he would come up to me and say, ‘Now just do whatever you want; forget everything I’ve said and do your own thing.’ Firstly, that makes you, as an actor, feel like he trusts your take on it which, when you’re working with a director like Tim, means a lot. It also kind of gets rid of the pressure and gives the ability to take a deep breath, to start again, and to do something different.”

Asa is also pictured below during his appearance at the Build Series in New York City on Thursday (September 29).

Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children is out NOW in theaters. 20+ pics inside…

Asa Butterfield Risks His Life in New 'Space Between Us' Trailer - Watch Here!

Asa Butterfield drowns himself in water during his first day in school in the new trailer for The Space Between Us!

In the upcoming movie, a space shuttle embarks on the first mission to colonize Mars, only to discover after takeoff that one of the astronauts is pregnant. Shortly after landing, she dies from complications while giving birth to the first human born on the red planet – never revealing who the father is. Thus begins the extraordinary life of Gardner Elliot (Butterfield) – an inquisitive, highly intelligent boy who reaches the age of 16 having only met 14 people in his very unconventional upbringing.

While searching for clues about his father, and the home planet he’s never known, Gardner begins an online friendship with a street smart girl in Colorado named Tulsa (Britt Robertson). When he finally gets a chance to go to Earth, he’s eager to experience all of the wonders he could only read about on Mars – from the most simple to the extraordinary. But once his explorations begin, scientists discover that Gardner’s organs can’t withstand Earth’s atmosphere.

Eager to find his father, Gardner escapes the team of scientists and joins with Tulsa on a race against time to unravel the mysteries of how he came to be, and where he belongs in the universe.

The Space Between Us hits theaters on December 16th.
