Brittany Snow claims she struggles to be taken seriously.The former child star says she enjoys the challenge of trying to get people to appreciate her as an actress by taking on more diverse roles.She told website Moviehole.net: "I think it is difficult to convince people to take me seriously as an actress, maybe I ought to do more challenging parts than just the girl-next-door, something like that. "But that's something that I've always struggled with, and that I will see as a challenge, and something that I kind of want to break through."But in terms of the projects that I've done recently, it hasn't really been a conscious effort, or a conscious choice to be completely out of the box, or do something crazy to make people think of me a different way. It's just kind of been what I've been gravitating towards, and what I feel impassioned about."The 22-year-old 'Prom Night' actress says her "innocence" helped her land her role as a prostitute in the forthcoming 'Finding Amanda'.She added: "Getting this role, for 'Finding Amanda', was definitely something I had to audition for and work for.
