In a perfect world, Kristen Bell would be at Comic-Con
promoting a Veronica Mars feature film. Instead, she’s
here on behalf of Astro Boy, the forthcoming computer-animated 3-D flick based
on the Japanese phenomenon in which she voices the role of Cora. (Freddie
Highmore, who’s making the PR rounds with Bell, voices the title role.) But
have no fear. I managed to get in a couple questions about Mars. And Gossip
Girl. And… well, see for yourself after the jump.

Video won’t work…
I’m not getting any sound
kirsten bell is so pretty
Kristen’s so beautiful! She shines! Anyways I’m willing to take any percentage myself to make this VM thing work out, really!
I miss the show so much, they’ve got to understand that it needs a true ending, cause the final episode of season 3 wasn’t an ending at all! And Kristen Bell HAZ to appear on GG, just for some guest appearances here and there, you know, and then Josh Schwartz can keep his secret with the characters until the end of the show! It would be really fun to see Kristen as Gossip Girl interact with the other character, and knowing that she is Gossip Girl indeed, and they don’t
Kristen’s Great! Bring on the VM movie!
Veronica Mars movie… c’mon WB!!
I saw saw clips of Astro Boy at New York Comic-Con this year. While they did preserve the character Astro Boy in terms of flight, the look, his arm cannon, I’m still a little skeptical of it as an American CGI Animated Movie as oppose to being a Japanese Anime Movie. But it all depends on how well the animators and production company stayed true to Osamu Tezuka’s original concept, and storytelling while re-imagining this classic.
I want a Veronica Mars movie so badly!!! stupid Warner Brothers
Poor Freddie Highmore. I hope he left your little booth with all three Veronica Mars seasons on DVD!
Cannot get the video. Can someone summarize what if anything Kristen had to say on the subject of Veronica Mars?
I wish should would join a hit drama (NOT Heroes). I was thinking, she would make a hot CSI, or even cop on Law & Order. And it would bring a whole new set of fans to the show too.

Kristen Bell is made of awesome. That is all.
i’m deaf- so can anyone just sum up what kristen says about VM/GG???
oh and ausiello/EW it would be nice if you thought about adding captions.. cause you know, deaf people do watch tv too.. and what do you know, deaf people want spoilers too!
To TJ… she said that she has no new info but its not looking good right now. She said that she’s trying to get the real deal out to the fans and said that the bottum line is we need to convince warner brothers that its worth it to make the movie. She talked a bit about astro boy and couples retreat and then said that she is open to going on gossip girl, and joked that she’ll put on a wig go to a casting call and get cast as a waitress.
In a perfect world, Bell would be promoting season six of _Veronica Mars_.
