Shantel: (on learning about the character deaths in “Final Destination 4″) There is so many cool ways to die. I don’t know if it’s a competition to see who has the best death scenes. For me, I got really excited to read about the things that were going to happen in the premonitions. The stakes are higher in those premonitions. But the way we are all going to die is just so neat. And mean. It’s not necessarily a competition. We are very supportive of each other’s death scenes.

Shantel: (on the preparation for her role in “You and I”) Roland [Joffe] feels it’s really necessary, like for me and Mischa [Barton] to hang out. To have me and Mischa have a bond because in the movie, we love each other. And as much as acting is acting, I can pretend that I love somebody when I actually hate them, it’s much stronger if you actually have an emotional connection in real life.

Shantel: (on acting; in a 2008 interview) This is what I live for…it’s a great adventure and I hope it’s only the beginning of a life long career for me.
