“I was in Chile doing a concert," Gomez explained, "and he was shooting a movie called ‘Aftershock’ and he asked if I wanted to make a cameo. And I did!”



"It’s actually a very funny scene with him and I improving. And it’s cute,” she continued. “Well, I mean, [i]the movie’s[/i] not cute. It’s actually scary, but [i]the scene[/i] was cute.”

With “Aftershock” under her belt, she hopes to one day work with Roth again. She added, “And so we kind of became friends and hopefully we’ll be able to work together again. [He’s] very smart.”

Roth co-wrote and will star in the film, about a group of friends who must survive an earthquake in Chile. Nicolás López will direct. He also has a screenwriting credit, along with Guillermo Amoedo.

“Aftershock” should drop sometime in 2013. It’s a part of Gomez’s growing resume of more mature projects, which include [url="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1684137/selena-gomez-spring-breakers.jhtml"]the forthcoming “Spring Breakers,”[/url] as well as a role in Ethan Hawke’s next film, [url="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1682697/selena-gomez-movie-ethan-hawke.jhtml"]the thriller “The Getaway.”[/url]
