Ferris or Cameron? Friend duos share which character they relate to most
MICHAEL LEACH as FERRIS
“I believe I’m like Ferris Bueller because in the movie, Ferris is a witty trouble maker, and that explains me perfectly. In
the movie, Bueller skips school — which is something I find very agreeable — and he goes out for a day of misadventure. I feel if I was put in Bueller’s spot I would do a lot of the same shenanigan activity he pursues. He takes his friend’s car and goes on a cruise, which sounds lovely to me, and he’s got his friends right next to his side. While he is a little narcissistic, so am I, and his youthful defiance is a trait I’d use for myself. Even through his series of defiance, he still gets away with it, and when faced with any challenge he is able to figure out a way around it. His final quote is genius, and so am I.”
ANDREW MONAHAN as CAMERON
“Personally, I think Cameron [is] my favorite character., he’s a cool guy. He objectively looks better than Ferris Bueller, and although he doesn’t have a girl in that movie, it doesn’t matter because he knows in his heart that he’s the more important character. I feel like he has this humbleness and this power to him that I just really feel like I connect with.”
RYAN PIKEY as FERRIS
“I fit the Ferris characteristics. I’m relatively outgoing and I’ve got a very broad and outspoken personality. It’s not to say that [Charlie’s] not an outgoing person, he’s just definitely more of a reserved person [and] isn’t necessarily as vocal.”
CHARLIE DOHERTY as CAMERON
“I’m more like Cameron since I am cautious and methodical, the type of person to try to talk Pikey out of taking the Ferrari for a joyride. I think our friendship works really well because we balance each other out and highlight the others’ determining qualities. Although I can be skeptical of Pikey’s ideas at first, they always turn out fun and I have a great time, just like Cameron did in the movie.”
KATIE KENNEDY as FERRIS
“I’m kind of known for being really impulsive and not making good decisions whenever I don’t think about them. I’m very, ‘Oh, let’s do this, this sounds fun, let’s go’ right off the bat.”
MADDIE CAVIN as CAMERON
“[I’m] probably a Cameron — I care too much about what people think of me. Katie Kennedy does whatever she wants.”
