For Oyster issue #95 Alexi Wasser caught up with heartthrob Logan Lerman (swoon) and touched on some very interesting topics including one night stands, older women and the ‘man pill’. If only he’d shown us his stomach too…

Not all that long ago, in a house nestled in the Hollywood Hills, I did something that will make me the envy of tweenage girls all over the world: I interviewed 19-year-old actor Logan Lerman (of Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief and The Three Musketeers). We discussed everything from girls, to dating, to love, to sex. Yes, I’m well aware that all of these topics come under the same umbrella, but these are the things I’d want to read about in an interview with a cute actor I had a crush on!

Alexi Wasser: So, I’m going to ask you a lot of questions, some of which are completely inappropriate and none of my business. Feel free to say “pass” when you feel uncomfortable and don’t want to answer. OK?
Logan Lerman: OK.

Is Logan Lerman your real name or a stage name?
It’s my real name. Everyone in my family has the initials LL.

Like the Kardashians with KK. What’s the craziest fan story you have?
I had someone who kept showing up at a hotel and slipping notes under my door, along with pictures they drew of me.

Do you have Google Alerts?
No. Do people do that? I can just read what everyone says about me online? Well, I mean, that would be uncomfortable; that would just make me feel like a complete asshole.

Robert Pattinson has admitted to having Google Alerts in an interview…
Really? Has he?

He has. Are you on Facebook or Twitter?
I have a personal Facebook, but I’m not on Twitter.

As a male actor, do you suffer from body dysmorphia? Do you feel pressure to have a six-pack/eight-pack?
I don’t.

Do you have a six-pack? Can I see your stomach?
What? No! I don’t work out [laughs]. Next question.

Are you single?
I guess I’ll pass on that too.

What is the longest relationship you’ve ever been in? Eight months?
No, longer — two years.

What is a first date with you like? How do you woo a girl?
I haven’t been on many dates. I’ve had a few girlfriends, and those dates went well. I’ve never had, like, the ‘ideal date’, whatever that is. • Read full story »

He’s made it past the often impossible hump, from child actor to fully fledged male lead, but the best thing about Logan Lerman is he’s not blase about beating the odds.

The young star of the new Three Musketeers movie is all too cognizant of his statistically unlikely success, and appreciates every single opportunity he’s ever been given, from landing the starring role in the Vancouver-shot Percy Jackson and the Olympians, to playing opposite Orlando Bloom and Milla Jovovich in the latest take on Alexandre Dumas’ swordsmen.

“I realize this wasn’t even a realistic career option for me until about two years ago,” says Lerman, who plays D’Artagnan, the “fourth musketeer.”

“I was close to graduating from high school, and, at that point, acting was still really just a hobby for me,” he says. “I had no real plans, but opportunities were presented to me, and I decided to take them.”

Those opportunities were 2010′s Percy Jackson, which is currently gearing up for a sequel with Lerman in the lead once more, as well as Three Musketeers and a new movie for John Malkovich’s production company, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, with Emma Watson (Harry Potter) and Paul Rudd (Our Idiot Brother).

“I never imagined being able to be in movies like this,” he says, gesturing at the movie poster for Three Musketeers propped on an easel. “I think not having any expectations about the future was a good thing. I’ve always tried to look at it from a work perspective, and just embrace every moment and every job that came along.”

Lerman says he made the decision to defer university for a while to pursue his options, but he’s not ignorant of the consequences. “They say every year you put off university is like three years, if you want to go back, but for now, this seems like the right path.”

Lerman is 19, but he looks more like 16, as a result of his smooth white skin and baby-blue eyes framed by long black lashes. He grew up in Los Angeles, but he has the feel of a kid from the Midwest: straightforward, honest, wholesome and just a little bit shy.

“I am, I guess (a little bit shy),” he says, blushing. • Read full story »

Logan Lerman is no new kid on the block, but he’s really rallying to become one of Hollywood’s unstoppable stars as he makes the transition from child star to adult actor. This week he hits theaters in the period action flick, “The Three Musketeers,” and for that we’re naming him our Hump Day Hottie.

Vital stat: This 19-year-old grew up in the 90210 zip code (that’s Beverly Hills, for those completely living under a rock). Fact: He attended New York University for a minute where he studied creative writing. For now, his studies have been put on hold, which is sort of ironic since being a Hump Day Hottie is not the only honor that Logan has won this year. He was also declared Class President of our New Class.

Where you might have already seen him: Logan has a pretty extensive resume for such a young man, including, “What Women Want,” “Riding in Cars With Boys,” “3:10 to Yuma,” “Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief” and the TV series “Jack and Bobby.”

Why you should take notice of him now: This week he stars in “The Three Musketeers,” where he’s teaming up with the legendary swashbucklers to defeat a new villain. But, that’s not the only role we’re getting excited for. He’s also set to star in the highly anticipated “The Perks of Being a Wallflower,” as well as “The Only Living Boy in New York” and “Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Sea of Monsters.”

“A Good Day to Die Hard” opens on Valentine’s Day in 2013; “Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters” launches over the Easter holiday in 2013.

Fox has confirmed it is moving forward with the next installments in the Die Hard and Percy Jackson franchises, setting release dates for both.

A Good Day to Die Hard, which returns Bruce Willis in the title role, will hit theaters on Feb. 14, 2013 in order to take advantage of the joint Valentine’s Day and President’s Day weekend.

Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters, based on the bestselling young adult book series, will open on March 26, 2013, the Wednesday before Easter Sunday.

Fox also dated Andy Finkman’s comedy Parental Guidance (previously titled Us & Them), starring Billy Crystal, Marisa Tomei and Bette Midler. The movie, produced by Crystal,Peter Chernin and Dylan Clark, is Fox’s Thanksgiving play in 2012, opening in theaters on Nov. 21.

The studio dated handful of other films, including Taken 2, which opens Oct. 5, 2012 (Columbus Day weekend); Gerard Butler surfing drama Of Men & Mavericks (Oct. 26, 2012) and Walking with Dionsaurs (Oct. 11, 2013).

The votes have been tallied, the results are in, and—at long last—our New Class of up-and-coming A-listers has its very first President. And while there were some big names up for election, our winner is clear as can be: the mythical beast-fighting, wallflower-perk-having, super-legit young actor Logan Lerman (who was also dubbed Most Likely To Make You Swoon)!

So when we caught up with Logan at the junket for “The Three Musketeers,” we had to let him know of his new role as the New Class President. Logan’s reaction? Well, let’s just say it’s pretty typical for a dude who just won a presidency he wasn’t campaigning for: surprise, shock and a whole lot of stammering.

And, in related news, stammering is now among the most charming AND handsome activities known to mankind.

“That’s really… wow! Very flattering,” he said. And even after being told who he beat out for the presidential honors (including heavyweights Josh Hutcherson and Emma Watson), Logan still couldn’t quite shake the deer-in-headlights expression as he tried to wrap his head around the enormity of his success.

“I was not expecting…” he said, then stopped and tried again: “I heard about this, but…”

Poor guy. He’s gobsmacked!

“That’s really nuts! Thanks!” he finished.

No word yet on what Logan’s first order of business will be in his new role as President. However, I think we can safely assume that it will involve free Popsicles and backrubs for everyone.

All week long, we’ve been doling out superlatives to 10 of Hollywood’s hottest up-and-comers, but today is extra-special as we bring you an EXCLUSIVE first look at the coming-of-age tale “The Perks of Being a Wallflower,” starring four (yes, FOUR!) of our New Class inductees.

Based on the 1999 novel by Stephen Chbosky, “The Perks of Being a Wallflower” follows introverted high school freshman Charlie as he slowly comes out of his shell thanks to new friends, siblings Sam (played by Emma Watson) and Patrick (played by Ezra Miller). We recently caught up with the cast on set, where they were filming the homecoming scene, to get the scoop on the talent-heavy production.

“I feel incredible about it. I feel like I’ve been waiting for ‘Perks,’ ” Emma, who we dubbed Most Likely To Win An Oscar, said. “I was waiting for this story, for this script, for this moment, for these people to do it with me. I’m so glad I didn’t do anything that I didn’t care about.”

“Vampire Diaries” star Nina Dobrev, who plays Charlie’s older sister (and who we named Most Likely To Become A Style Icon), couldn’t have agreed more. “Every hiatus, my goal is to try something different, and this is a small part in a great, fun indie that has a great script,” she said. “It’s been fun to meet such great new people. Everyone really gets along and is really friendly and fun.”

For his part, star Logan Lerman (Most Likely To Make You Swoon), utilized his own uncomfortable experiences to play the quiet protagonist. “I definitely tapped into some awkward childhood memories for this movie,” Logan said. “It’s been a year and a half since I first signed on to the project, so to be out here making it is a pretty big deal for me. It’s cool to be working with this great cast of young actors.”

“One-for-all and all-for-one.” The hot-headed young D’Artagnan (Logan Lerman) joins forces with three rogue Musketeers (Matthew MacFadyen, Luke Evans and Ray Stevenson) in this reboot of Alexandre Dumas’ classic story ‘The Three Musketeers.’ They must stop the evil Richlieu (Christoph Waltz) and face off with Buckingham (Orlando Bloom) and the treacherous Milady (Milla Jovovich). Directed by Paul W.S. Anderson’s, the action adventure is given a state of the art update in 3-D. The film also stars Mads Mikkelson, Gabriella Wilde, Freddie Fox, James Corden and Juno Temple. ‘The Three Musketeers’ is released in cinemas October 12th in the UK, and October 21st in the US. Look out for more in-depth interviews closer to the films release date.

How was it to play such an iconic character in D’Artagnan?

Logan Lerman: It was great. D’Artagnan is a cocky young swordsman, who at the beginning of the film is leaving home, a small town home, he’s leaving for the big city, Paris, in hopes to become a Musketeer. It’s that fantasy when you are a kid, running around the house with a stick pretending like you’re sword fighting. Everybody wants to be D’Artagnan, everybody wants to be one of the Musketeers – it’s pretty surreal to be playing one of these characters.

Gabriella, can you tell us a little bit about your character in ’The Three Musketeers,’ Constance?

Gabriella Wilde: Well she’s incredibly naïve because she’s young, yet at the same time she’s very smart, she’s not necessarily like all the other ladies in waiting. She’s very interested in everything, she’s exciting by D’Artagnan because he comes from somewhere she knows nothing about, and at the same time he knows nothing about her life. When she first meets him there’s this big fight scene, she doesn’t run away from it, she’s looking, she wants to see what’s going on, she sort of plays with him. She’s confident but I think you also see moments where she’s thrown – when D’Artagnan appears in the place and she’s so embarrassed that he spoke to her in front of the Queen, she doesn’t know how to handle that because she is really young. She’s also insanely loyal, there’s so many different aspects to her, and there’s so many different moments in the film that show them, I really liked that.

How does wearing the costumes and being on location help you get into character?

Logan Lerman: To read a script at home, to read this movie at home for the first time – I’m from Los Angeles, in that city, in my room, in my normal life – I found it very difficult to get into the role, or kind of understand the character. But the minute we got out to Germany and started rehearsing at these locations, with the wardrobe and everything, it all just came together naturally. That was a lot of fun, it always helps.

How was it for you Gabriella being on such a big scale production?

Gabriella Wilde: It was hugely exciting to be on a movie so elaborate, with the costumes, the sets. It’s so far away from everything you know that it’s sort of terrifying and exciting – because everything’s new. When you get in the costumes you immediately feel different and like your character. You have to stand differently and move differently, you’re in pain in weird places (laughs), you feel what it’s like for them really, I’m sure they had it much worse, we get to take it off at the end of the day.

You’re involved with a tonne of action, what sort of training did you do to portray D’Artagnan?

Logan Lerman: We went through months and months of training to be able to look like I could sword fight in this movie. We trained for maybe four months, three months before filming. Then throughout filming, just everyday perfecting a new fight sequence. Our goal was to show audiences something that they have never seen before – so we worked really really hard to make this look amazing.
