William Spotted Shopping

William Moseley was spotted shopping in Hollywood last 9th April 2010. I read about it in Charismatic fansite. He looks quite sad and he looks gaunt and grown. I hope it's not because of his disappointment over "Ironclad" falling through. I would rather think he's shaping up for some role that requires him to look slimmer and older. Well, he has to suddenly "grow up" in looks if he is to take up adult roles, different from the Narnia roles he had in the past.

It is always this transition from teen roles to adult ones that many actors fail to make the jump. To name a few: The singer Mandy Moore from a cameo role in "Princess Diaries" to nowhere, the talented Christy Carlson Romano from the highly successful "Even Stevens" TV series and movie to nowhere, Hayden Christensen of the massive blockbuster Star Wars movie series, to lacklustre "Jumper" and a few others, and hopefully not to nowhere... to name a few. Hilary Duff herself has had a series of unheard-of-movies, though she's worth millions from her albums, tours, movies and mostly, fashion line revenues, since the conclusion of Disney Channel's "Lizzie McGuire" tv series. So, putting these teen idols - Duff and Moseley - together in a kind of young adult movie in transition to real adult roles, would be betting a lot on their teen crowd-drawing abilities. It does sound a pretty interesting project - a scholarly guy and a socialite pop singer girl put together - this "A Great Education" venture is. I really hope it does pull through, with William in it.

William looks a bit haggard in the shopping photos posted by Charismatic fansite but I notice his adult bone structure is starting to become more prominent. It's a bone structure similar to that of Brad Pitt and Robert Redford. Hmmmm, now that sounds really promising.I also like the fact that he has retained his dress style - tight-fitting dark pants and a loose shirt. Let's hope his longish hairstyle is in preparation for his intellectual look in the hoped-for movie "A Great Education."

I do hope the rumors of William being in it would prove true, and that he and Duff would boost each other's careers. But whatever the outcome, I still wish William all the best in his acting career and that he will be happy in his personal life as well.
