It was a Smurf-tacular time on the blue carpet for the Smurfs Premiere at Paramount Pictures in Los Angeles! Carter and Kennedy worked the blue carpet, and the moment we stepped in, it felt like we were transported straight into Smurfs Village — flowers, mushrooms, bubbles, and so much color and fun! We had the honor of chatting with the cast, creators, and more.

Xolo Mariduena (Brainy Smurf)
It’s always a blast talking to Xolo! This was Kennedy's second time interviewing him and he’s just as cool and charismatic as ever. We love him as Blue Beetle, Miguel in Cobra Kai, and now he’s bringing Brainy Smurf to life in The Smurfs Movie, hitting theaters this Friday, July 18th! He’s talented, funny, and always so genuine — we’re huge fans and can’t wait to see what he does next.
Bonus points to Xolo for being such a good sport — when Kennedy mentioned after the interview that she wanted him to be in a TikTok, he was 100% down! Gotta love that energy. Watch it here.
