I was lucky to be able to interview Siena Agudong who co-stars in Alex and Me with soccer star Alex Morgan. It’s always so much fun to be able to interview actresses and get a look at what life is like behind the scenes of making a movie.

Alex and Me Starring Soccer Star Alex Morgan

Alex and Me

Teenage Reagan Wills has one dream, to play soccer like her hero Alex Morgan. In fact, her room is a shrine to all things Alex, including a life-size poster of the Olympic gold medalist. Yet, in the Wills house, Reagan lives in the shadow of her superstar brother Logan, the MVP of his high school football team. When Reagan fails to make the top club soccer team and is humiliated by her rival Claire, she’s certain her ship has sailed.

But after Reagan accidentally hits her head, her poster of Alex Morgan suddenly comes to life and everything changes! Alex & Me is an uplifting story of the passion and drive it takes to succeed and the power of family to help realize your dreams.

Special Features include Getting to Know Alex Morgan, Aspire to Inspire: Success in Hard Work; Soccer, Script to Set: A Playbook on Alex & M3 Outtake


As I mentioned above, I was lucky to be able to interview Siena Agudong who co-stars in Alex and Me and was so impressed with her dedication and energy. I knew that she enjoyed soccer when she was younger. And, she really felt that having some knowledge of soccer helped her in this show. She still found some of the tricks difficult but Alex Morgan helped her stay focused and encouraged her to keep trying. I also learned that one of the things Siena wants other girls to take away from this film is to not give up on your dreams. She feels that if you work hard and keep trying, you can achieve them.

Alex and Me is going to be released on Digital June 12 and on Blu-ray™ and DVD June 19.

My thoughts:

Participating in sports is a great way for kids to stay active. But, it does come along with challenges. Both of my kids were active in sports in high school including soccer, football, wrestling, and softball. Sports requires a lot of dedication and not being “the star” of the team is tough for some kids. Alex and Me ix a fantastic movie that shows kids how important it is to stay dedicated even if you aren’t number one.
