Although he had been involved in student theater, Mintz-Plasse had no professional acting experience prior to the scene-stealing turn that launched his career.

Career
Mintz-Plasse acted in drama classes from the first grade until his senior year in high school, before appearing in Superbad . He was cast in the role of Fogell, after auditioning with two high school friends. He had no professional head shots before the audition and just took a head shot with his camera phone. His mother was required by law to be on set while filming his sex scene in Superbad because he was only 17 years old at the time of filming.
