Keli Price Projects
I play the role of Chris Abeley. Chris is a bit of a rebel and was kicked out of boarding school. He now goes to Briarwood Boys Academy back in Westchester. He meets Massie Block (Elizabeth McLaughlin) horseback riding on a trail. She likes him from first sight and they both kind of start flirting a little. Chris has a girlfriend that Massie doesn't know about. Anyway, things heat up!!
I auditioned for the role with the casting agent in NYC and then I was called back for the director, Michael Lembeck. After my audition, he followed me out into the hallway and told me I got the part. He seemed like a cool guy and I was very excited.
Things got pretty funny once the horse scenes started. One day, I got all my gear on for riding practice and it was soooo cold that day, so I was extra bundled up. My dad was with me and he insisted that I wear 10 layers. LOL. There I was, the Michelin man with a riding helmet. Elizabeth shows up and takes one look at me and starts cracking up. I said, "Do I look that funny?" she just kept laughing. I got the hint..
What was the rest of the cast like? ALL GIRLS! There was actually one other boy, Dylan Minnette, who plays Todd, Claire's (Ellen Marlow) little brother. Everyone was really cool. It was awesome.
About The Clique Movie
Meet The Clique, where the only thing harder than getting in is staying in. Based on The New York Times best-selling book series by Lisi Harrison, Warner Premiere’s production of The Clique is a humorous look at the fashionable life of Massie Block, the most popular seventh grade girl at Westchester’s exclusive Octavian Country Day school, and her BFFs Alicia, Dylan and Kristen, aka The Pretty Committee. Enter Claire Lyons, the new girl in a “fashion don’t” outfit and two-year-old sneakers -- clearly not top clique material. Unfortunately for her, Claire’s family is staying in the guest house on Massie’s huge family estate. With no way to avoid The Clique and eager to fit in, Claire’s future looks worse than a Prada knockoff… but with a little confidence and a lot of scheming, she just might stand a chance.
Starring Elizabeth McLaughlin (Massie Block), Ellen Taylor Marlow (Claire Lyons), Sophie Anna Everhard (Dylan Marvil), Samantha Boscarino (Alicia Rivera) and Bridgit Mendler (Kristen Gregory) along with Vanessa Marano (Layne Abeley) and Keli Price (Chris Abeley), The Clique was directed by Michael Lembeck and Executive Produced by Tyra Banks. The movie is available on DVD and digital download.
