Let's Talk Twilight. . .

2010-04-15T15:06:00.001-07:00

Entertainment Magazine talks Twilight:

"For Kristen Stewart, who reprises her role as Bella in Twilight: Eclipse, locking lips with costar Taylor Lautner (who plays her pal Jacob) felt odd—not just because she thinks of Lautner as a kid brother, but because Bella’s heart truly belongs to vampire hottie Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson). “It felt really weird kissing someone else as Bella,” says Stewart. “I was like, ‘What the hell are you doing?’ It was a really strange experience—as it should have been.”"

io9.com talks Twilight:

Why The Twilight Hate Has Gotten Boring

"When the trailer for new Twilight movie Eclipse played at a recent fan convention in San Francisco, the crowd erupted in boos so loud the soundtrack was drowned out. That's when I realized hating Twilight had gotten boring. . .

My point is that people are hating on the movies so vocally not because they have actually watched them, evaluated them in the context of other paranormal romance narratives, and deemed them aesthetically inferior. They hate them because it's what everybody else is doing. Especially men. . .

I'm not saying people will come to cherish Twilight the way they do Star Wars. I'm just sick of hearing everybody trash Twilight for the very things they love in other stories: Impossible romance, epic battles that transcend generations, silly costumes, and growing up superpowered. Hating Twilight is just so tired, and it makes us all look like assholes. Maybe it's time to start figuring out what's cool about Twilight. . ."

An Eclipse Novella

2010-03-31T10:09:00.001-07:00

The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner
(an Eclipse novella)
by: Stephenie Meyer

There are two sides to every story...

"Fans of The Twilight Saga will be enthralled by this riveting story of Bree Tanner, a character first introduced in Eclipse, and the newborn vampire world she inhabits. In another irresistible combination of danger, mystery, and romance, Stephenie Meyer tells the devastating story of Bree and the newborn army as they prepare to close in on Bella Swan and the Cullens, following their encounter to its unforgettable conclusion."

Stephenie Meyer tells us about the latest "Twilight" book on her website:

"Surprise!

I have a new book coming out. It's called The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner. Well, it's more of a novella than an actual book—my version of a short story.

Actually, this has been a surprise to me, too. The reason why it's a surprise was that I never intended to publish this story as a stand-alone book. I began this story a long time ago—before Twilight was even released. Back then I was just editing Eclipse, and in the thick of my vampire world. I was thinking a lot about the newborns, imagining their side of the story, and one thing led to another. I started writing from Bree's perspective about those final days, and what it was like to be a newborn.

This story was something that I worked on off and on for a while, just for fun, in between the times I was writing or editing other Twilight novels. Later, when the concept for The Twilight Saga: The Official Guide came up, I thought that might be a good place for Bree. Her story is a nice complement to Eclipse; it explains a lot of the things that Bella never knew. So I dusted it off and finished it up for placement in the Guide.

At the same time, it came in handy for the Eclipse film. Melissa (Rosenberg, the screenwriter) had a ton of questions about what exactly was going on in Seattle, how Victoria managed things, what Riley was like, etc. I let her read what I had then, and later gave the whole thing to the director, David Slade. David asked if Xavier, Bryce, and Jodelle (Riley, Victoria, and Bree) could read it as well, so all the parties involved would end up having a really strong foundation for their characters before the cameras started rolling. I was pleased that this side of the story would make it into the film and was looking forward to including it in the Guide.

(Keeping it confidential: Here is Jodelle next to the bucket of waterlogged ashes that were once the pages of her copy of the Bree manuscript.)

Then I got the news: my "short story" was nearly 200 pages long when typeset. It was too long to fit into the Guide—without ending up with a tome as heavy as the Oxford English Dictionary. My publisher approached me with the idea of releasing the Bree story on its own. One of the major benefits of this plan was that it would be out before the movie, so people would get to know Bree before they saw her in the film. That made sense to me, and we decided to go ahead with it.

There was one thing I asked for: since this story had always been an extra for me, and was meant to be released with the Guide, I wanted to be able to offer it to my fans for free. You all have bought a ton of my books, and I wanted to give you this story as a gift. My publisher was awesome and embraced this idea. We still wanted to also produce a physical book with a cool cover (see below) that you can add to your set if you like, but starting at noon on June 7th until July 5th, it will also be available online at www.breetanner.com.

. . .I really hope you all enjoy this story. I had a blast writing it. I'm glad that after all this time cooling her heels in my files, Bree finally gets her chance to shine.

Thanks for all the support,

Steph"

TayTay (as I'm now referring to Taylor Lautner and Taylor Swift) News. . .

2009-12-07T19:53:00.000-08:00

E! Online reports an eXcLuSiVe:

"Taylor Swift had a special visitor last night at KIIS FM's Jingle Ball 2009 concert in downtown Los Angeles.

Yup, Mr. Taylor Lautner was in the house.

But you wouldn't have known it if you weren't backstage. Lucky for you, one of our eagle-eyed spies gave us a full report...

The New Moon star used a private entrance to enter Nokia Theatre L.A. at about 8:45 p.m., the source tells us. He came alone, the source says, and made a beeline for Swift's dressing room.

Once inside, the two definitely seemed like a couple. Lautner spent most of his time with the country pop singer, but was also spotted chatting with her mom and other members of her entourage. "Taylor's mom was constantly smiling around him," our source said.

Seems like they really wanted to keep things on the downlow because Lautner didn't pop into the audience for Swift's performance. Instead, he watched her wow the crowd from the side of the stage.

No word if Swift plans to be in New York City next weekend when Lautner makes his debut as host of Saturday Night Live. . ."

MTV Radio talks to Kristen Stewart

2009-12-07T19:44:00.000-08:00

Kristen talk to MTV about. . .

Chris Weitz:

"Chris did a very different thing that I've never had a director do," the 19-year-old explained. "He put together a syllabus of what we were supposed to achieve and how he was going to make it easier for everyone — sort of an introduction to how he likes to work. It not only introduced the idea of collaboration but said, 'Please, everyone, love it and be invested and work hard.' It was very encouraging. It had technical aspects of [the shoot] — how he was so sorry that so much of the movie was going to be CGI stuff that we would have to react to — but that he was going to always make us aware of what we were acting with and never leave us high and dry like a lot of effects movies [do], because you don't know what you're reacting to. It was a full rundown of how he planned on making the movie. Most directors are like, 'Have you put together notes for our meeting?' and it's like, 'No. That's your job.' "

about. . . Bryce Dallas Howard:

With "New Moon" already a box office smash in its first few weeks, Kristen also turned her gaze towards next year's "Eclipse," dishing about working with Bryce Dallas Howard, who took over the role of Victoria from Rachelle Lefevre. "It was really good [working with her]," Kristen said. "Bryce is scary. She is really oddly sweet as well, so it's weird to see her switch back and forth. Victoria, for Bella, is an ever-present fear — even when Victoria isn't around, she is scared that she is coming back. Bryce is such a good actress, and it was easy to be scared of her."

and about. . . the tabloids:

"I've gotten more comfortable with it," Kristen said of the media attention. "And the whole rumor/tabloid stuff, it's so obviously false to me. Even before I became a part of it, once I was sort of the star of that, it's like a show; it's like a ridiculous show. With false realism, like a soap opera that seems real, but you're not quite sure. It doesn't bother me; I don't take it personally."

2009-12-03T20:00:00.001-08:00

These days, if you're not living under a rock, you're speaking or at least understanding a whole new language: all things related to Twilight. You might recognize such words as Twilighters, Twi-Hards, or Robsten. However, people aren't stopping there... Celebrity Addictionary has a whole slew of "twilight words." Study up on these words... I have a feeling Twilanguage (i made that one up) might become more popular than Spanish. If Twilanguage becomes a class in school I would actually consider going back! :)

Pattzy or Robsessed:
noun, Victim of Rob Pattinson's awesomeness
Pattinted:
adjective, Many qualities (i.e. his gorgeous hair) that are trademarked to Robert Pattinson
V-section:
noun, Cesarean birth technique in which vampire fangs are used instead of the traditional scalpel
Pattronized:
verb, To humor one's Twilight-obsessed friends
Twi Lies:
noun, Stories created to convince yourself and others you do not have an addiction to Twilight.
Jacobite:
noun, Someone who bats for Team Jacob.

Twilight: 4 books. 5 films?

2009-12-01T19:49:00.000-08:00

E! Online reports:

"Variety reported last night that Summit was tempted to go the "two-film route" when deciding how to bring Breaking Dawn to the big screen.

Uh, darlings, such old news, really. Summit is more than tempted. Making B.D. two movies is the game plan as of now.

The fourth flick has been in the works for a while. After ensuring that the main cast would be back for Twilight 4, Summit asked Melissa Rosenberg to pen the script for B.D. in September, to which she obviously agreed.

Once execs realized Twilight fever wasn't dying down anytime soon, they decided to swipe a move from Harry Potter: Why Not Make It Two Scripts? It's an idea that's been going back and forth over at Summit for a while.

So will the suits ever officially announce this so we can stop having to reassure all you Twi lovers that Robsten will be in it for the long haul—onscreen, too?

Says Deep Twi:

"Nothing official yet, but knowing Summit [the announcement] will be soon with the giant success of New Moon. Why would they not stretch it out and make as much money as possible from this franchise?"

As to Robsten's future in all this?

"They are so on board, still," promises another member of Team Deep Twi. "But the money has to be right. If it is, it'll happen—especially now that [Rob and Kristen] are learning better how to handle the press."

Uh, not sure I agree with that last statement. As it's the press who seem to be learning how better to handle Robsten, if you ask us.

Even though the main Twilight players only agreed to a fourth movie, they will be down for a fifth. Not just because Summit basically owns their asses and they wouldn't totally have a choice, but because it's pretty much guaranteed Robert, Kristen and Taylor Lautner will be getting a big pay raise.

Like one of our Summit insiders told us a while back, they just tell Robsten & Co. to count their millions when they get fame frustrated.

Getting New Moon director Chris Weitz back would probably be the biggest obstacle. Remember, Summit and the cast l-o-v-e-d him, and they all want him to direct again. Chris told us he'd be stupid not to do Breaking Dawn(s), but he wants to take a break from directing for a bit, and Summit wants to peddle these bad boys out as fast as possible 'cause the cast can't keep their fangs off each other.

So what do you think—good news that Rob and Kristen would be contractually bound for a few more years together? Now you can see why Summit was wary at first of their leads shacking up together. Good thing Robsten is doing better than fine! Happy stars mean more money...for everyone.

Especially the paps."

Eclipse: The Facts

2009-11-27T13:42:00.000-08:00

Rotten Tomatoes has 5 Facts About Eclipse. . .

FACT #1: It's Darker
"The brand new poster for Eclipse (above) hints at a darker tone with its brooding storm clouds. With 30 Days of Night director David Slade at the helm, it's unsurprising. "Every movie is different because we work with a different director on each one, which I love," Taylor Lautner tells RT. "David Slade is perfect for the third film because it's darker. Eclipse was my favourite book.""

Ashley Greene says, "Eclipse will be amazing because he has made it far edgier and more dramatic. . ."

Fact #2: less "love story" and more "war"
""Eclipse isn't as intimate as Twilight or New Moon," Robert Pattinson explains to us. "We're at war, so I get to interact with more characters, not just Kristen. You'll also find out more about the other members of the Cullen family. It just feels bigger." But -- fear not, Twihards -- that isn't to say the love story is cast aside altogether. "New Moon set up a love triangle with Bella, Edward and Jacob," says Lautner. "So we explore that further in Eclipse. It's a tough situation for all of them because Bella is torn between two guys, Jacob can't get the girl that he loves and then there's Edward, with all of his issues.""

Fact #3: Werewolves = Sex Appeal
""We all know the appeal of the vampire family," says Nikki Reed, who plays vampire Rosalie. "But the werewolf boys are on a whole different level. They interact with a youthful, playful, comfortable warmth. It's very sexy. . .""

Fact #4: More Action
""Filming Eclipse actually changed my life," says Nikki Reed of the arduous training regime the cast had to endure. "I have never been so fit -- this is the first time in my life I have actually had a bicep. It's bizarre to compare how we look now to how we all looked in the first movie. The entire cast turned up on set for Eclipse looking super-buff."

. . .While the rest of the cast were having fun with stunts, spare a thought for poor Taylor Lautner. "Eclipse is a lot more physical for my character," he explains, "but any time I have any kind of action, I'm a wolf, so it's all done with CGI. It's a bummer.""

Fact #5: Then end is a set up for a 4th (and possibly 5th) film

"There are four books in The Twilight Saga: Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn. But Ashley Greene gave RT the strongest indication yet that there might be five films. "We have finished filming Eclipse and one would assume that, if New Moon does as well as Twilight, then we'll start filming Breaking Dawn next year," she says.

"The only thing is, Breaking Dawn is a very large book so it would be a really long movie. We're thinking they might decide to split it into two parts, like they did with Harry Potter. Either way, we need to get on with shooting them because, unlike Harry Potter, vampires don't age. So we all need to look the same!""

Twilight: changing cinema for the better

2009-11-26T14:44:00.000-08:00

EW.com reports:

'New Moon': Why its girl-driven success is good for the future of movies

by Owen Gleiberman

"Offhand, it would be hard to think of a pop phenomenon as rapturously beloved as the Twilight saga that is also as vociferously hated. My God, the hate! If swoony-gauzy teen-bloodsucker romanticism with a golden-eyed indie-rock James Dean as love object isn’t your cup of passion, then fine — so be it. But why the frothing torrents of resentment? I was seriously shocked, for instance, reading some of the comments on Lisa’s recent post, to see that this much stone-pelting hostility could be directed at an actress as lovely and expressive as Kristen Stewart. What is her crime? Having a personality moody and brainy and distinctive enough that it carries over, maybe a bit too much, from one role to the next? (That was true, as well, of the young Jane Fonda, whom Stewart often recalls.) It makes me wonder what, deep down, is getting the haters so flea-bitten scratchy under the collar.

Frankly, I think it’s this: The ascendance of the Twilight saga represents an essential paradigm shift in youth-gender control of the pop marketplace. For the better part of two decades, teenage boys, and overgrown teenage boys, have essentially held sway over Hollywood, dictating, to a gargantuan degree, the varieties of movies that get made. Explosive truck-smashing action and grisly machete-wielding horror, inflated superhero fantasy and knockabout road-trip comedy: It has been, at heart, a boys’ pig-out, a playpen of testosterone at the megaplex. Sure, we have “chick flicks,” but that (demeaning) term implies that they’re an exception, a side course in the great popcorn smorgasboard.

No more. With New Moon, the Twilight series is now officially as sweeping a juggernaut on the big screen as it ever was between book covers. And that gives the core audience it represents — teenage girls — a new power and prevalence. Inevitably, such evolutions in clout are accompanied by a resentful counter-reaction. For if power is gained, then somewhere else (hello, young men!) it must be lost. Yet such is the populist magic of Hollywood that these movies can’t simply be written off as some overblown high-school vampire version of a Miley Cyrus concert. Or, more to the point, they can be (hello, haters!), but that completely misses what’s going on in them.

I went into New Moon having not read the book, and so I didn’t really experience the movie as an adaptation, or watch it as any sort of Twilight die-hard. Leaving aside a few leaping boy-to-wolf transformations (which could, at this point, have come out of any routine horror film), what I saw, in essence, was a moody romantic melodrama from the 1950s, a movie that told its story, more than anything else, with faces. For two hours, they loomed up there — Stewart, with her pale crystalline severity, her ability to communicate desire and distress at the same moment; Robert Pattinson, with his sweet-but-not-too-safe, hurtin’-eyed, chalky-skinned delinquent chivalry; and Taylor Lautner, with those naturally wolfy features, as the group’s Troy Donahue, a friendly, quick-grinned stud-muffin who’s just buff enough to divert the heroine without threatening to capsize her devotion to her true love.

The key to New Moon’s appeal, of course, is that a lack of consummation is built into the movie’s very premise, and so the sexiness, as it was in the ’50s, has to emerge almost entirely from the atmosphere, and from the interplay of those faces. And that, more than anything, is what makes this a picture dominated, in spirit, by a new kind of girl power. Mock me all you want (and from the haters, I expect nothing less), but the reason I believe that the big-screen success of the Twilight saga bodes well for the future of Hollywood movies is that the teenage girls who are lining up to see New Moon are asserting, in an almost innocent way, their allegiance to a much older form of pop moviemaking: the narcotic potency of mood, story, and romantic suggestion over the constant visual wham-pow! of action, effects, and packaged sensation. It’s not that New Moon has none of that stuff. It’s that the movie uses fantasy to liberate, rather than to steamroll, its emotions. That’s what makes it a new-style, feminine-driven brand of popcorn, one that’s more than welcome at a moment when the other kind — the boys’ kind — has grown more than a bit stale."

In his interview he has this to say:

". . .But when your character hangs up on Edward in New Moon, it sets off the whole chain of events that almost lead to a major tragedy. That's something a villain would do.

Yes. that is part of Jacob's character. He can't really control himself. When he gets mad, he gets mad. And all Jacob has on his mind is on Bella. That's who he cares for. That's who he loves. If somebody gets in his way, it's not good. And he will explode. So I guess you could see that either way.

. . .But you're not really her friend. You have an agenda with her, and you're always making snide comments about Edward.

If I was Jacob, and I feel like I have lived as him, it gets so annoying. Because she's in the car with you one moment, about ready to kiss you and then she leaves and is with Edward. And then she's back with you, you know.

Then she even says she loves you.

That's why Eclipse was actually my favorite of the series. It's the height of the love triangle. I think it's going to be good. That tent scene is the biggest thing possible. She's cold and I'm hot, so [since vampires are cold], are you going to let me crawl in the sleeping bag with her, or are you just going to let her die?

That's what I mean. Why don't you be like, "You guys stay there. I will get you an extra blanket so you can stay warm?" Or, "I'll turn into a wolf and go skin some animals and make you a blanket."

No, no, no. Oh my."

also, Taylor is not afraid to admit he likes the books and the story:

". . .I admit proudly that I enjoyed the series. I was not a book reader at all. But then when I read them, they hook you. I feel like each book, and more so the movies, are just getting more exciting and better and better. With New Moon, you know, it's not just the love story between these two anymore. Now there are three people, and it's dangerous."

The Cullen's on Eclipse:
[via MTV.com]

"Fans haven't gotten enough of "New Moon" just yet, but they're already hungry for tidbits on the next "Twilight Saga" flick "Eclipse," which opens next June. And the cast is eager to oblige by telling us about their favorite scenes from the third installment.

While Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner are most focused on the film's intensifying love triangle, their co-stars can't wait for fans to see them get down and dirty.

" 'Eclipse' is my favorite book, so I'm actually really excited for people to see that one," Peter Facinelli, who plays Carlisle Cullen, told MTV News. "The Cullens get to roll up their sleeves and really get into the mix of things. They're usually so restrained all the time, and I think people love the ['Twilight'] baseball scene because you got to see them actually do what they can do as vampires, and in 'Eclipse' it's that to the 10th power. You get to see them be what they can be as vampires."

Fellow Cullen Ashley Greene is also keen on displaying Alice Cullen's skills. "I'm really excited to see my fight sequence," she said. "There's some playful moments between Jasper and Alice that I'd like to see. They take parts of your character and put it into your fight sequence, so mine's kind of a Cirque du Soleil-ish sequence, so I want to see it."

Kellan Lutz looks forward to seeing the results of his hard work preparing to send Emmet into battle. "We went through the six weeks of fight training ... and they trained us so well that we just dominated our choreography moves," he shared. "And they're going to look really cool."

But while everyone seems excited to duke it out, Nikki Reed is most looking forward to sharing Rosalie's tragic backstory. "Well, Jackson [Rathbone] and I, we both had the opportunity to shoot our backstory, so I shot an entire sequence in the 1930s," she explained. "And it's intercut between a really amazing scene and moment that I have with Bella. And Jackson sort of did the same. I think the fans will like that. I think they want to see the Cullens' history. It gives me the opportunity to explain myself.""

Opening Weekend Reports

2009-11-23T17:36:00.001-08:00

"Over the weekend GossipCop reported box office estimates, but now the numbers are final. Sources at Summit Entertainment tell us “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” grossed an astonishing $142.8 million over its first three days, for a $35,497 average on 4,024 screens.

Despite the tremendous numbers, a spokesman for Summit says there’s “no announcement planned” for a potential “Breaking Dawn” production."

NMM.org reports: "New Moon is still #3 in all time box office opening weekend, behind #1 Dark Knight and #2 Spiderman 3. It did $2.1 million more than what was estimated yesterday. As we previously posted, New Moon broke records in midnight screening with $26.27 million and opening day with $72.7 million."

10 New Moon Stories

2009-11-23T15:37:00.000-08:00

from HitFix.com "10 New Moon Stories You May Have Missed":

Are Rob, Taylor and Kristen delaying a 'Breaking Dawn' announcement?

"It seems a forgone conclusion that a big screen version of the fourth novel in Stephenie Meyer's series, "Breaking Dawn," will happen, but Summit Entertainment has been careful not to commit to the project officially as of yet.

Now, E!Online reveals part of the problem may be that the studio wants to break the book into two new movies, but that stars Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner have only committed to one additional film. Is it an honest exhaustion from playing the same parts for so long or is it a sly negotiating tactic from their agents? We're betting on the latter."

Rachelle Lefevre can't bring herself to attend 'New Moon' premiere

"One story that has sort of been buried under the excitement of "New Moon's" opening is the "only in Hollywood" recasting of Victoria in the third movie in the franchise, "New Moon."

In what can only be deemed a colossal mix up on the part of Rachelle Lefevre's reps and Summit to not contact her directly, the actress was nixed from returning to portray the evil Vampire and pivotal character in "Eclipse" because of a small role she'd also agreed to in a Dustin Hoffman indie during the same period. Before anything could be seriously worked out, Summit recast the role with the higher-profile Bryce Dallas Howard.

After being one of "Twilight's" biggest publicity champions and becoming a fan favorite online, Lefevre was pretty much dropped as much as possible from "New Moon's" marketing campaign. Conspicuously, not one of image of Lefevre is in the film's photo key set and seemingly contradicting her on-set interview with HitFix last May she also doesn't have a single line in the film. Strange considering how many weeks she spent shooting in the Vancouver forest.

It appears it was too much for Lefevre to bear. She was invited (contractually?) to the movie's premiere, but tweeted:

"2 fans at the premiere: w/ Honey in hospital & being fired from Eclipse tonight was just 2 emotional 4 me & I couldn't manage it. So sorry"

[Honey is Lefevre's pup.]

At least Lefevre can be satisfied her fight scene in the forest provided one of the most cinematic and memorable moments thanks to Thom Yorke's stunning track "Hearing Damage.""

Tim Burton a bit too busy to direct 'Breaking Dawn'

"Iconic filmmaker Tim Burton is a bit busy these days finishing "Alice in Wonderland" and prepping his own Vampire flick "Dark Shadows" but he indulged in responding to a former actor's request about directing the fourth novel in the Stephenie Meyer series, "Breaking Dawn."

Burton's "Sweeney Todd" star Jamie Campbell Bower told MTV News he thought the man behind "Edward Scissorhands" and "Sleepy Hollow" would be the perfect filmmaker to helm "Dawn."

Speaking at a retrospective of his work at the Museum of Modern Art, Burton told MTV:

"He's being biased, because I worked with him on 'Sweeney Todd,' " Burton laughed. "But that's nice to hear. In case potential jobs run out, it'd be nice to know someone."

Nice try though Jamie."

'Eclipse' gets a teaser poster

"Summit Entertainment revealed the teaser poster art for the third installment of the "Twilight Saga," "Eclipse.""

Did Kellan Lutz diss "Eclipse" director David Slade?

"As Emmett Cullen, Kellan Lutz doesn't get a lot of screentime in the "The Twilight Saga," but as the character appears throughout the series the 24-year-old heartthrob has gotten to jump on the roller coaster ride his bigger co-stars have experienced. In fact, the role has been a boon to Lutz's career helping him land a significant role in the upcoming reboot of "A Nightmare on Elm Street." With over five years in the business then, it was somewhat surprising he made a public gaff regarding his "Twilight" directors.

When asked a publicity event for "New Moon" who he'd like to direct the fourth chapter in the franchise, "Breaking Dawn," Lutz told MTV:

If he had to pick between the directors who have overseen films in the series thus far, Lutz said he'd skip Catherine Hardwicke ("Twilight") and David Slade ("Eclipse," out next year) and instead select the man behind "New Moon." "Out of the three, Chris Weitz was amazing," he declared. "So if we could get him [to direct 'Breaking Dawn,'] it'd be great."

Did Lutz mean to insult Slade before anyone has seen a frame of footage? Click here to watch the interview footage and decide for yourself."

Taylor Lautner gets his Barbie, sort of...

"Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson have already been immortalized in Mattel dolls for Ella and Edward especially, so it's no surprise that with the release of "New Moon" a Taylor Lautner/Jacob Black model hits the toy story shelves.

Appropriately, Jacob comes shirtless with just a pair of cut off jeans and sneakers. Unfortunately, there is no magic button to switch him into his wolf form. We'll assume that feature is being saved for the "Eclipse" version."

Could original 'Twilight' movies not based on the novels be on the way?

"There has been industry scuttlebutt, but rarely discussed amongst the fanbase, that Summit (or perhaps a future buyer of the company) could explore the "Twilight" universe with movies not based on specific Stephenie Meyer novels. Imagine a movie just about the Volturi or the Wolfpack for instance. When HitFix floated this scenario to franchise screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg this past week she found it hard to believe creator Meyer would sanction films not created on her specific novels.

"The person who writes 'Twilight' is Stephenie and she's the one who creates the original stories and characters," Rosenberg says. "She could certainly expand it as she has created a world of rich characters [outside of the books, but] I hope she doesn't."

Unfortunately, as Rosenberg is well aware, never say never in Hollywood."

'Twilight' makes it on 'Jeopardy'

"With the long-running quiz show in the middle of its annual teen tournament, it's no surprise that "Twilight" showed up as a category. More specifically though -- and leaving the door open for more "Twilight" questions -- these answers were specifically about "Twilight the novel."

Would you have mastered this "Jeopardy" category? Here are the questions and answers.

For $200 - Q: "While Bella finds the smell of this nauseating, to the vampires it's intoxicating." A: "What is blood?"

For $400 - Q: "From Jacob Black, Bella learns that according to legend, the Quileute Indians are descended from these animals." A: "What are wolves?"

For $600 - Q: "By researching the rainiest places in the U.S., Stephenie Meyer came up with this tiny town to set her story." A: "What is Forks, Washington?"

For $800 - Q: "Edward, at least his name, was partially inspired by this author's Jane Eyre." A: "Who is Charlotte Bronte?"

For $1,000 - Q: "Driving home with Edward one day, Bella is surprised to hear him listening to this piece of music by Debussy." A: "What is 'Claire de Lune'?""

Robert Pattinson in Remember Me

"If millions of Robert Pattinson fans are going to be in theaters for "New Moon" this would be the time to debut the trailer for his upcoming romantic drama "Remember Me," no?

The picture filled Pattinson's busy shooting schedule between "New Moon" and "Eclipse" this past summer and found him hounded by the paparazzi during the flick's New York City shoot. The very serious storyline finds two twentysomethings (Pattinson and "Lost's" Emilie de Ravin) connecting while coping with their families respective tragedies. Directed by "Hollywoodland's" Allen Coulter, the film also stars Chris Cooper and Pierce Brosnan.

To check out the trailer, click here."

Uma Thurman trumps Nicole Kidman as Pattinson's next leading lady

"Rumors were swirling for over a month that Nicole Kidman would star opposite "New Moon's" Robert Pattinson in the upcoming period drama "Bel Ami," but it appears the "Nine" star decided not to journey to beautiful Paris. Instead, none other than "Kill Bill" icon Uma Thurman will play Pattinson's main lover in the screen adaptation of Guy de Maupassant's classic short story. Read up on more details here."

making box office records

2009-11-20T10:39:00.000-08:00

HitFix.com reports:

“No one expected “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” to disappoint at the box office, but even Summit Entertainment has to be surprised by the massive opening the sequel garnered from midnight shows across the country. Distributors are still submitting their grosses but sources tell HitFix “New Moon” has set a new record and may have made as much as $25 million from its midnight launch.

To compare, previous record holder “The Dark Knight” made $18.4 million in over 3,000 theaters, but some of those screens were of the IMAX variety which charge higher ticket prices thereby inflating the overall gross. Not jumping on the IMAX bandwagon (so far), only makes “New Moon’s” gross even more remarkable.”

fans sound off on New Moon

2009-11-20T10:34:00.001-08:00

MTV.com reports:

"NEW YORK — November 20 has been a long time coming for devotees of the "Twilight" saga, and at a movie theater in Times Square, fans from around the world congregated long before midnight to witness Chris Weitz's adaptation of "New Moon," the second book in Stephenie Meyer's series. While there were those who were disappointed ("It did not live up to expectations at all," griped Melissa Paipan from Manhattan), the general consensus was that it was, as Jordana de la Cruz from Rhode Island gushed, "the best movie in the entire universe and more."

"We bought our tickets ... literally, the day they came out," Lauren from Brooklyn told MTV News. Many who attended the midnight screening said they purchased tickets as early as September. Many had also prepared for the occasion by re-reading passages from the novel, watching the movie's trailers online, and re-watching the first movie.

"We got here at 5 o'clock, as soon as we got out of class," said Samantha Martone, a student from New Jersey who wanted to insure that she and her friend would get good seats. As the time drew nearer, Stephanie Thomas from New Jersey (who drove from Rutgers University with a friend) described the scene as "kind of madness." Some fans even came in costume or dressed up in their best store-bought or homemade "Twilight" T-shirts.

"There was a guy who looked just like Edward, it was crazy," Ashley Harrison from Australia said.

Many told us that not only did "New Moon" exceed their expectations, it eclipsed (no pun intended) 2008's "Twilight." That was thanks to splashier special effects and the debut of the Volturi ("They fight a good battle," explained Angelica Diaz from Brooklyn) and the wolf pack. Plus there was Taylor Lautner's new, muscular body — a favorite topic amongst the flick's throngs of female fans.

"I have a little tiny crush on him now," a staunch Team Edward fan admitted. "He looked really hot!" declared Twilight Mom Sandy Moffit from Illinois, initially wary of admitting that Lautner's pumping iron had paid off for, well, legal reasons. Several girls even considered a moment when he removed his shirt and the many close-ups of his new physique to be among the film's highlights.

And then there was its ending.

"They left off in a cliff-hanger, so I'm definitely way excited," Sherrilyn Bradar from the Bronx said. Without giving away any spoilers, the movie cuts immediately to black after a critical scene. Habiba Tinubu recounted that at the movie's conclusion, "everyone just screamed ... and were shocked that it ended."

It was an ending designed to whet an appetite for "Eclipse," the third installment, which will be in theaters June 30, 2010. But until then, fans like Marianna Randazzo from New York will be catching "New Moon" several times in theaters. She planned on seeing it "three or four times" by Sunday evening."

EW.com reports:

. . ."Stewart and Pattinson, the latter of whom had no idea that Twihards had camped out in Westwood for four days to catch a glimpse of him, did their duty. “You can’t prepare for this,” Pattinson told us, unshaven in Gucci. “It is just insane. I don’t know how the Beatles felt but I imagine it was perhaps close to this. I think very few human beings will ever get to experience the same feelings and love we feel at Twilight events.” Stewart, who kept a safe distance from Pattinson on the red carpet in her Oscar de la Renta, said this is the night she works for: “The only reason you make movies is for people to see them and hopefully love them. I feel like doing interviews tonight at this is just boring. I would rather spend the time hanging out with the fans because I have done a hundred million interviews and they all know what I have to say.” (The film’s stars did spend time with the fans signing autographs. Kellan Lutz, who plays Emmett, went and collected his superfan, who apparently follows him everywhere and wears a shirt that says “Nutz for Lutz,” gave her a ticket, and walked her in past all the cameras. It was actually quite sweet.)" Other highlights: HERE

Stephenie Meyer answer your questions:

2009-11-16T21:55:00.000-08:00

After seeing Twilight the movie you mentioned that you wish you had thought of Bella catching a glimpse of Edward watching her sleep and thinking it was only a dream. Are there any new moments in the New Moon movie that you thought...I wish I had thought of that?

. . .New Moon stays closer to the novel, so there aren't a lot of scenes that aren't closely related to the book. I am a little sad that my action movie—Crosshairs—is so generically titled. I like the name of the action movie they used for the film (they couldn't use Crosshairs because there is a movie named Crosshairs somewhere out there). It makes me laugh every time Kristen says it.

Also (and I don't consider this a spoiler because you've seen the trailers) there is a bit of a fight sequence in the Volturi tower now that isn't there in the book. At first, I had some resistance to this idea because in my mythology, if you start a fight with the Volturi, your story ends right there. It would have been kind of a bummer to have Edward, Bella, and Alice slaughtered in Volterra and no happy reunion scene (and no Eclipse or Breaking Dawn). But I worked with Melissa Rosenberg (the screen writer) and Summit until we came up with a solution that made sense with the story but also gave them the visual action they needed. And now that it's all put together and beautiful, I love it and kind of wish Felix had gotten his moment in the book.

. . .In staying true to the novel, I'd like to know if there were any scenes missing from the original screenplay that you insisted be in the movie?

Sort of. In the original screenplay, Jacob's visit to Bella's room that one night didn't exist. The necessary information was still there, it was just scattered through a few other scenes. I really missed that scene, but change (and cutting!) is a part of the adaptation process—especially when you write really long books—so I was prepared to suck it up. And then Chris Weitz felt like we needed that scene, too, and he wrote up a beautiful version I love. And we all lived happily ever after.

. . .Of course, I love the Twilight saga, but I was also blown away by how beautiful and unique your other novel, The Host, was -- so I was wondering: do you have any plans for more books not related to Twilight?

I'd like to eventually have The Host be part of a trilogy. That's one of the projects I'd really like to get to in the next year or so.

USA Today tackles New Moon Love Triangle

2009-11-13T12:13:00.000-08:00

USA today notes how the "Classic romantic triangle takes monstrous from in 'New Moon'"

. . ."Where once there were two, now there are three as a love triangle begins to form between Bella and her potential monster mates. And, despite the horror-flick trappings and inherent dangers, the conflict in the Twilight saga is as classic as anything found in Jane Austen's novels.

Edward is the first love, an obsession fueled by the flames of desire and the torture of heartache when he isn't near. Jacob is the loyal buddy, the guy you're at ease with and who knows you better than anyone, who slowly evolves into something much more.

["Edward does make a stupid mistake by leaving Bella (in New Moon), and that allows Jacob in," says director Chris Weitz. "You can understand why Bella starts to develop feelings for him. He's the right man at a frightening time for her, and his devotion is touching. Even die-hard Edward people will understand."]

. . .Ever since New Moon was published in 2006, fans have been declaring themselves members of either Team Edward or Team Jacob.

. . .There are pros and cons on both sides. Edward is an immortal who looks like a brooding male model, will never age even though he's over 100 years old, dresses like a rock-star poet and whose skin sparkles in the sun. Drawbacks: A "vegan" vampire who feeds on the blood of animals, he is no fun in restaurants. And he's icy to the touch.

Jacob is a blue-collar high schooler who will stop aging as he continues to shapeshift, has animal magnetism to spare, is half-naked most of the time since his body temperature is 108.9 degrees and is a gifted mechanic. Drawbacks: He has a nasty temper that causes him to change into a raging wolf the size of a horse. And he isn't Edward.

"New Moon is really a lay-up to the triangle," says Melissa Rosenberg, the screenwriter for all the films based on the book franchise so far, including next summer's Eclipse. "Edward is the ultimate guy in Twilight, and there is a massive following for him.The challenge of New Moon is to set up the third leg of the triangle, with Jacob being strong enough competition for him. That way, Bella's choice in Eclipse is an actual dilemma. But in New Moon, it's the audience who is torn."

Pattinson, 23, the bed-headed Brit who plays Edward, jumped out early in the cover-boy sweepstakes after the first film took a nearly $400 million bite out of the worldwide box office. Jacob, a mere human then, had only a couple of scenes. But Lautner is already catching up, especially after his maybe-girlfriend, country cutie Taylor Swift, blew him a kiss and mouthed his name while hosting Saturday Night Live.

. . .Ultimately, the love triangle is about more than picking a team. It's about the need for a young girl to check out what else is available before she settles down.

. . .Screenwriter Rosenberg agrees. "It's not just about which boy do I want. It's a lifestyle choice. With Jacob, you'd have an earthbound life, a normal life in some ways with family and children. Edward represents the ethereal, fantastical life. That makes for a strong triangle. Frankly, just choosing which boy or girl you want is a little shallow.

"For Bella, it's a matter of life or death. Literally.""

Rob Pattinson Interview

2009-11-11T10:41:00.001-08:00

Rob talks to 4TNZ...

"Q: When you are shooting the more romantic things, what goes through your head?

Rob: It's weird. I keep getting told by people, "Pump up all the stuff about the action, so the guys will go and see it," but it's ridiculous. It's like saying that guys can't appreciate romance. I don't think you can say that about Gone with the Wind. I've watched Titanic and I didn't think, "Oh, this is a girl's film."

Especially in New Moon, and actually in the whole series, I've never played it thinking, "Oh, I'm in a series of girls' films and I'm doing something just for girls." I don't feel like I'm doing an animated Tiger Beat, every week. I like doing romantic scenes. I felt like a lot of the storyline in New Moon is very heartbreaking and true. I didn't think I was doing something, just for the sake of romance. I thought, in a lot of ways, that it was a really sad story."

Melissa Rosenberg: Book to Movie

2009-11-04T14:02:00.001-08:00

A FearNet Exclusive Interview with screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg on 'New Moon,' Edward's Proposal, and 'Breaking Dawn':

Have you seen the final cut of New Moon yet?

I saw an early cut of it, yeah. . .

When I saw Chris’s cut, about ten minutes into the movie I started smiling. I thought to myself, I get to put my name on this. It was just so thrilling. It’s really good. I have to tell you, in all sincerity, it’s really good . . .

In your script for Twilight, you wrote in a number of direct quotes from Stephenie Meyer’s book. Can we expect the same in New Moon and Eclipse?

There are definitely some quotes sprinkled throughout. In some cases I’m paraphrasing, but I do try to include as many as I can. It’s very important. It brings the flavor of the book into the movie, so I definitely try to.

Fans want to know: Did the proposal scene make it into New Moon?

The proposal comes into the end of New Moon, and that is the first proposal. Absolutely in Eclipse, the proposal when they’re on the bed, yes -- to me, that was a quintessential scene from the book. When Edward gets on his knees, with his mother’s ring, and she says yes -- that was one of the most romantic scenes that Stephenie wrote in all four books.

2009-10-16T17:35:00.000-07:00

People Magazine released a special New Moon collector's edition today:
"Twilight is about first love; New Moon is about heartbreak," says the film's director Chris Weitz.

"This is a severely emotional movie," Stewart says.

But it's not all about the drama. "It's a pretty hot movie," says Ashley Greene, who thinks Stewart and Lautner "have this undeniable chemistry."

"I get nervous trying to represent Team Jacob in the right way," Lautner admits. "This guy [Pattinson] is some pretty good competition."

Rob Happily Surrenders Spotlight

2009-10-12T09:59:00.000-07:00

Sydney Morning Herald interview Rob:

". . ."I just don’t take any of it seriously. It’s just a job and while it’s a job I love, girls scream out for Edward, not Robert. I still can’t get a date.”

Pattinson has been peddling this line for months. He won't fess up to dating Twilight co-star Kristen Stewart, who plays Bella. . .

The real reason Pattinson is so calm is simple: "I'm not the lead in the second film. Taylor [Lautner] is." He grins idiotically. "I appear in Bella's dreams. So I'm in it but the focus is not on me. I just have significant moments at the beginning ... and the end. So I'm more of a supporting role in this one, which is why I felt so free. . . I think I did it better without all those pressures." . . ."

Ashley Greene Interview with Twilight-Review

2009-10-12T09:55:00.000-07:00

Twilight-Review.com interviewed Ashley Greene (Alice Cullen):

". . .TSR.com: What was your first impression of Twilight when you auditioned?

AG: I never thought is would be something as big, as huge at it is. Twilight is like WOW. I thought it was going to be great and everything, I thought it was going to be something like Scary Movie-famous, but I never thought it was going to be this big, like… don’t know… Harry Potter-famous. Transformers… don’t know. I don’t know if you get my idea, but is awesome being part of something like Twilight and the Saga.

TSR.com: What’s your favorite book in the series?

AG: I’m between New Moon and Eclipse. But I love them all.

TSR.com: Are you Team Edward or team Jacob?

AG: Ughhhh… harsh. I really really adore Rob and Edward’s awesome, but I’m Team Jacob. Is just… You gotta love Taylor, he plays an amazing Jacob, so… my heart belongs to him. Hahaha!

TSR.com: Once you had the role of Alice Cullen, how did you prepare for the role?

AG: I read the book, read my script and talked to Stephenie. She helped me to create the current Alice.

TSR.com: In New Moon Alice plays a larger than in Twilight and a new style. Are you happy with how Alice is evolving in the saga?

AG: Of course! That’s why I like NM and Eclipse more than Twilight and BD! Hahahaha! Kidding. Is awesome, but that also means I have more lines to learn! But I love it, I love my job so, everything’s great.

TSR.com: Are there any traits or similarities between yourself and Alice?

AG: We’re both tiny. Hahaha! Well, Alice’s one happy kid, and I’m a happy person too. I’m like smiling all the time and I really don’t like to see people sad so, I make them laugh and everything. I’m really into fashion, but Alice kick my butt x10 times. She’s a fashionista and I love it. I love her fashion sense and, I want her closet!

TSR.com: Do you think you can relate to Alice? What do you admire most about Alice? Where are you most different?

AG: We really look alike. She’s a loyal girl and she loves her family and friends and I’m like that. I would do everything for them. Now… different… hmmm. She has a boyfriend, I don’t. Hahahaha! . . ."

Taylor Lautner in Italian Vogue

2009-10-07T13:15:00.000-07:00

E! Online reports:

"Four months until Taylor Lautner is legal and we can all stop feeling like total perverts!

Here is Tay-Tay flaunting his stuff in Italian Vogue for Men...

Summit's pushing blatant gratuitous shots of Taylor in hopes Twi-fans get used to the idea of more Jacob and less Edward in New Moon—and we're actually OK with that.

Remember the last abtastic shots released?

Of course we're sure you haven't forgotten about Robert Pattinson, who first shot for Rolling Stone completely drenched.

...After all, R.Pattz is of legal age—it helps us feel a little less naughty about slobbering all over him so.

...[but] How about you all—is Team Jacob slightly creeping up on you, too?""

some things to know about New Moon. . .

2009-10-07T10:58:00.000-07:00

. . . from the New Moon Illustrated Movie Companion:

**In all the “vision” sequences Edward is wearing the same outfit he does when he said “goodbye” to Bella because that is the last memory she holds of him.

**Even the cameras used and their movements are done to show the relationship between the characters.

**They scouted many locations for the Cullen house, but found one that “was comparable enough with the house in Portland.”

**The Cullen house used for Twilight was “a very specific house, and the only way out of that puzzle for us was to put portions of the story of New Moon in other parts of the house”.

**Rob quote: “The birthday scene at the Cullen house is like the ideal birthday party. The house is beautifully decorated and everyone is happy. Edward is looking at Bella and thinking that she can become part of his family and his life–that maybe this can work out the way he wants it to.”

**One special challenge for the production team was how to convey Bella’s depression once Edward departs. In the books..the month pages do it. (October, November, December, January) In the film the passage of time is represented with visual effects. Bella sits in her chair in the bedroom and a camera circles around here while the seasons change outside her window.

**As a sign that Bella is committed to Edward her clothes are linked to his color wise. After he leaves she doesn’t pay much attention to her appearance.

**when they are rebuilding the bikes there is a montage of scenes.

Fangoria reports:

". . .Take THE TWILIGHT SAGA—Stephenie Meyer’s four-part novel series about a human girl who falls in love with a vampire is everywhere you turn. Last November, the franchise’s first feature TWILIGHT opened to theaters full of screaming girls. On November 20, similar sounds will be heard as the sequel, NEW MOON, bares its teeth—and claws—at 12:01 a.m. via Summit Entertainment.

“There’s something for everyone this time around,” screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg (DEXTER) says during a break from yet another long day in the TV series’ writers’ room. “NEW MOON, as directed by Chris Weitz, looks amazing. There’s definitely more conflict going on.”

In the center of that conflict is high-school heroine Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart). On her 18th birthday, her vampire boyfriend, Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) and his family throw her a party—but when an unexpected paper cut causes Jasper Cullen (Jackson Rathbone) to attack Bella, Edward’s attitude begins to change. Knowing the danger that his family poses to Bella, he makes the painful decision to leave their home town of Forks, WA, telling her before he goes, “This is the last time you’ll ever see me.” With her one true love gone, Bella falls into a deep depression, but soon finds comfort in her best friend, Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner), who is protecting a secret of his own. . ."

"Emily Young is Sam Uley's fianceé. . .

Emily and Leah are second cousins, but they were said to be like sisters. Sam had been dating Leah when he imprinted on Emily, which caused conflict between the two women and ruined their friendship.

. . .She has three long scars on the right hand side of her face, and one long scar reaching down to her arm, which were inflicted by Sam when he lost his temper and changed into a wolf while standing right next to Emily."

Like I Said... Robsten is so ON !!

2009-09-28T16:34:00.000-07:00

There is a lot of media hype as to whether Rob and Kristen (Robsten) are a couple or not... well some of the staff @ an apparent Twilight cast hangout in Vancouver seem to have a better grasp on the couple than the paparazzi has been able to get. . .

E! Online's Team Awful Reports:

"A.T.: How about Rob and Kristen, what is their dynamic like?
Hostess One: Doesn't everyone just know that they're dating?

A.T.: Uh, you'd be surprised how many don't want to believe it.
Hostess Two: Oh, well everyone here knows. They are the only cast members who will come in alone a lot. You can just tell by looking at them. They're really cute together, always smiling.

A.T.: Love it! Hate to say it though, but "smiling" and "Kristen Stewart" seem unlikely to be in the same sentence together.
Hostess One: No way. She is incredibly sweet—I'd be a bitch, too, if there were cameras constantly in my face. But she's great, and so is Rob. They just seem to make each other happy."

On the Cover: Robert Pattinson

2009-09-28T12:22:00.000-07:00

Rob on the cover of AnOther Man, due out in October. . .

"DazedDigital previews issue 9 of AnOther Man out on October 1, which features Robert Pattinson on the cover. . .Dave Calhoun speak to the 23-year-old Twilight star about the pressures of fame and the craft of acting: “It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life.”

. . .“It’s strange because even though the figures show that the books were successful and sold millions of copies, you couldn’t even buy them in London. I tried a couple of bookshops and they weren’t available. Hardly anyone I knew had read them apart from one girl, a friend of my sister. I had no idea at all. I’d seen Kristen Stewart in Into the Wild and some of the director Catherine Hardwicke’s other films, and that’s all I thought it was, something really small.”

. . .“Annoyingly, there are so few parts I feel I can add anything to, or that I want to do. . . I don’t want to be an actor for the sake of it. I don’t find any particular pleasure in being an attention-seeker.”

Twilight Author set for another Book Adaptaion Movie

2009-09-25T20:51:00.001-07:00

Stephenie Meyer wrote more than the Twilight Saga; she wrote an amazing adult book called The Host. Stephenie confirmed a few days ago on her website that The Host will now be coming to the big screen!

"September 23, 2009

Hey guys, great news! The Host is on its way to the big screen:

Variety.com: "Twilight's Meyer..."

I'm so excited to be working with Nick Weschler, and Steve and Paula Mae Schwartz to bring The Host to a visual format. They've all been a dream to work with, so lovely and collaborative, and I feel like we're in a really good place to make a great movie together. And then to have Andrew Niccol writing and directing? Truly awesome. If you've never seen Gattaca, go watch it now. One of my favorite movies of all time. It's such a great example of character driven science fiction, which is ideal for The Host, no? I'm having an absolute blast imagining different dream casts, which I would post if people didn't take my silly blogs so seriously these days. I'm looking forward to seeing the cast lists you come up with in the fansite forums, and if any of them match mine.

So, very exciting. Yay Host!

XO
Steph"

Ashley Greene: Cover Girl

2009-09-24T15:56:00.000-07:00

Ashley Green (Alice) graces the cover of the October 2009 issue of Saturday Night Magazine.

"Could you tell us about the new Twilight movie, New Moon?
It was fun for me because it was a little more in-depth for Alice’s character. It’s more about the angst part of it than the love story as far as Edward and Bella. Edward leaves Bella, so she kind of falls into a depression and gets close to Jacob, and discovers a couple more crazy things about the town. We had a blast filming. We got to go to Italy, which was amazing. It was a couple of us who got to go to Italy, and I was included. It was coming back to the people we got really close to in the movie before so it was like a little reunion. And Chris Weitz directed it, and he was incredible. I feel like the set was so chill and really comfortable, and it seemed like it was all very planned out and very put together so we weren’t going crazy and stressing out. I’m excited to see it all put together. I’m really confident that it will be good."

Taylor Lautner (Jacob) Interview

2009-09-24T11:29:00.001-07:00

BoxOffice talks to Taylor in their new article/interview "Competing For Bella."

"If the last two books in the series hadn't already been written, what do you think Jacob should do to win over Bella?

I don't think he would have changed anything, and I don't think he should change anything. Jacob and Edward are extremely different guys and it's just whether you want one guy or another. Jacob is himself, and he has a relationship with Bella that Edward doesn't. And Edward has a relationship with Bella that Jacob doesn't. So I wouldn't change a thing.

As an actor, how do you make the audience root for Jacob and get invested in his feelings when the outcome of the love triangle is already known?

Well, you try and take things one step at a time. When I'm filming New Moon, I'm not thinking about Eclipse. When I'm filming Eclipse, I'm not thinking about Breaking Dawn. We just have to focus on the movie that we're doing . . .

Everybody has been talking about the muscle that you've put on. The furor around actors and their weight changes is something you usually see happen with older actors who are more established. You're 17—what is that like to have people paying so much attention to your biceps?

It's different. It was all for the job, and that's all. I knew that Jacob was going to transform not only mentally, but physically as well, from Twilight to New Moon, and I wanted to be able to portray him correctly for all the fans. That was my motivation. It was a lot of hard work, though. . .

What do you like about playing Jacob?

I love Jacob and Bella's relationship. It's very different from Edward and Bella's. Jacob and Bella start off as really good friends. They become best friends—they can tell each other anything, they do whatever together, ride motorcycles. I love that. And then their relationship starts growing into more and more, and you wonder if they're going to go past friends. I love being able to do that. And work with an amazing actress, Kristen Stewart, and all of the help around us, our director Chris Weitz, the whole crew. It's a lot of fun.

What will draw guys your age to New Moon?

There's a lot more action than Twilight. It's more exciting—it has werewolves and vampires, which creates fights because they don't get along. Not only does the action step up, but the whole story line does as well. Now there's a third person involved. . .

Are you parents doing anything to try to keep your life in check? 'Yeah, yeah, yeah, there's millions of girls screaming, but you're still a normal kid?'

Absolutely. I'm hoping it doesn't take too much work. I feel the exact same—I'm the same person as before. It's just a completely different world. I have my world, and then I have Twilight world."

"Forbidden to remember, terrified to forget; it was a hard line to walk."
-Bella, New Moon

"You should probably know that I’m breaking the rules right now. Well, not technically, since he said I was never to walk through his door again, and I came in the window… But, still, the intent was clear."

-Edward, New Moon

"You’re not asleep, and you’re not dead. I’m here, and I love you. I have always loved you, and I will always love you. I was thinking of you, seeing your face in my mind, every second that I was away. When I told you that I didn’t want you, it was the very blackest kind of blasphemy."
-Edward, New Moon

"He thought time and patience would change me, and, though I knew he was dead wrong, I also knew that I would let him try. . . He was my best friend. I would always love him, and it would never, ever be enough."
-Bella, New Moon

"Bella, honey, we only protect people from one thing—our one enemy. It’s the reason we exist—because they do."
-Jacob, New Moon

"The only thing that Jacob would want from Edward would be his absence."

2009-09-12T18:41:00.000-07:00

I've been away for awhile... so here's a few treats for you to catch you up on the latest Twilight happenings!

First and most importantly, the NEW leaked New Moon trailer (or you can catch it tomorrow on the 2009 VMA's on MTV):

Next, some interviews. . .

MTV talks to Peter:

Peter/Carlisle by Emm♥ on Polyvore.com

". . .MTV: So, Peter, as we get closer to the "New Moon" release, are you excited to see the final product?

Peter Facinelli: Yeah, I dig the clips that I've seen. I'm excited to see what Chris Weitz has put together. I'm looking forward — as a fan of the books and a fan of the movies — to seeing it myself.

MTV: When it comes to the "Twilight" films, there are two types of scenes: Those in Stephenie's books, and the new ones Melissa Rosenberg added. Do you feel an extra level of excitement shooting those, because they're so new?

Facinelli: I do. A lot of people keep asking "Hey, what happens in 'New Moon'?" And you say, "Well, if you've read the book, you know what happens." But I like the scenes that aren't necessarily in the book, that get to tell a little bit of the backstory. It adds another element to the moviemaking, and it's a little surprise for the fans.

MTV: We've been asking your co-stars to give us their favorite "New Moon" line in character. Can you do yours?

Facinelli: Oh, wow. Now I have to reach back a whole year and try to remember my lines from a year ago, when I can barely remember my lines the day of. ... OK, here we go: "Like everything else in life, I just had to decide what to do with what I was given." That's a line that Carlisle says. . ."

E! Online talks to Kellan:

"Don't expect a threesome with Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Kellan Lutz—or even just a lunch date—to happen anytime soon.

They don't hang.

"They're just so complex, and I like to laugh and smile," Twilight's Emmett Cullen told E! News. . .

As for everyone's favorite couple…

Yeah, Kellan's not sure either.

"I don't know what's going on. I have no idea," he claims. "I don't hang out with Rob or Kristen."

. . .Kellan plays board games like Risk and Clue with Ashley Greene and friends while Pattz and that girl whose name he hardly mentioned do whatever "complex" people do."
