Miss Asia USA Ashley Park Talks About Her Future With Psychic Writers; Miss Korea USA Is A ‘Pleasure-Bot’ in Upcoming Sci Fi Flick

Miss Asia USA Ashley Park is transitioning into film. Last year's Miss Korea USA 2014-2015 is preparing  for the release of two new major movies, "Terror Tales," a horror movie in the tradition of "Creepshow," and "Rogue Warrior : Robot Fighter." Johnson's film fixes on the overthrow of humanity by Artificial Intelligence and the determined rebel, Sienna (Birdsall) who goes up against the droid empire. Ashley plays a 'pleasure bot' in the Neil Johnson directed science fiction film.

The reigning Miss Asia USA gave an exclusive interview to Entertainment 2morrow about her move into horror and science fiction genre films.

"I'd definitely have to say a vampire," Ashley told Entertainment 2morrow. "I feel like we are talking about Twilight, and I think I was always Team Edward, so definitely a vampire. I also absolutely adore the show True Blood, so I certainly did jump on the vampire train."

Since taking the crown last year, 'Miss Asia USA' Ashley Park has become a hot commodity in the film and TV game.

Park told  Entertainment 2morrow  that she doesn't think movie producers take her less seriously because of her pageant experience.

"Not at all," she told Entertainment 2morrow . "I saw the pageant as an opportunity to grow and transform as both a performer and a person. Preparing for the pageant and competing on stage taught me so much about myself, and I am very grateful that I will be able to carry what I learned with me for the rest of my life."

She told Entertainment 2morrow   says that she never felt in danger of being professionally objectified, even after making All American Bikini Car Wash.

"All American Bikini Car Wash was actually my first real feature film, so it was such a great learning experience for me," Park told Entertainment 2morrow . "The cast and crew were so much fun to work with, and I am still good friends with quite a few people from that set. In fact, two of my co-stars, JR Ritcherson and Dora Pereli, came out to support me at the pageant, along with our director and producer, Nimrod Zalmanowitz. It was definitely a different atmosphere, but I never felt as though I was being objectified. My character Brittany was intended to be the voice of reason throughout the film, so I took that on and just had fun with it."

Park, already familiar to TV viewers for her work on Days of Our Lives , has worked with such actors as Sally Kirkland, Peter Bogdanovich, Lin Shaye,  Felissa Rose and William Kircher over the past twelve months.

Producers have been snapping her up for roles in such upcoming films as Rogue Warrior: Robot Fighter, Grad Daze, Los Angeles Overnight and Terror Tales. In addition, she was recently signed to headline the upcoming horror pic Trapdoor.
