Robert Pattinson: Get A Good Read On The Hearthrob In New 'Remember Me' Still!

"Though Rob looks appropriately hipsterish in his flannel and dark denim, we can't help but prefer him in his Edward Cullen blues."  Oh how I so agree with this statement!  But on with the rest of the story.........

If the "Eclipse" still we debuted earlier today didn't fully satiate your Robert Pattinson cravings (we'd already seen the pic in People, after all), then we've got another dish for you to try. Summit has just released a new still from Rob's other upcoming project "Remember Me."






In the film, Rob plays melancholy college student Tyler who's grieving after a family tragedy. He finds refuge in fellow co-ed Ally (played by "Lost" star Emilie de Ravin), who he begins a romance with. Pictured here, Rob appears to be reading over journal entries or perhaps some poetry in his New York apartment. After rewatching the trailer, this still seems to be taken from a scene when Tyler's roommate bursts into his room to first tell him about Ally (fast-forward to the 1-minute mark to see if you agree). Though Rob looks appropriately hipsterish in his flannel and dark denim, we can't help but prefer him in his Edward Cullen blues.

Robert & Kristen make Time Magazines 2009 People Who Mattered List!

People Who Mattered:
 Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart of Twilight





It's been at least a decade since we had a pair of authentic, shriek-inducing, catch-me-when-I-faint teen idols on our hands. But suddenly, OMG, they're back. What makes the stars of the Twilight series so idolizable? It's partly that ineffable combination of dirtiness and innocence: they're sexy, but they're not sexual. They're also not generically beautiful. God knows they're hot enough, but they look interesting too. Intelligent. Slightly askew. You don't just want to look at them or sleep with them; you want to talk to them. Like the vampire Pattinson plays onscreen, you can see that once upon a time they were merely human, just like us.

— Lev Grossman

Robert Pattinson is MTV News #6 Man of the Year 2009

(Of course we think he should be #1!!!!!)

Robert Pattinson Is MTV News' #6 Man Of The Year


RPattz expanded on his success in 2009 with a red-carpet-stealing Oscars appearance and the record-shattering 'New Moon.'
 
 
 
 
 

 
6. Robert Pattinson


In 2009, all eyes were on RPattz. Despite only releasing one movie, there were few people whose face sold more magazines, whose every word made more of a ripple and whose public appearances caused such a stir. Under such pressure, a lot of 23-year-old actors would end up getting into trouble, indulging to the point of excess and disappointing their fans. But somehow, the uniquely suited-for-stardom Robert Pattinson took it all with a good-natured grin and self-deprecating charm. In "Twilight" and beyond, his future seems so bright that he'll likely be sparkling for quite some time.

2009 Highlights: We all know Rob had a busy 2009, and everybody had their own thoughts on what he should do after "Twilight." Few saw his first move coming, however, as he dropped out of the indie flick "Parts Per Billion," leaving producer/star Rosario Dawson sad but promising the show would go on. In February, he showed up at the Oscars and stole attention away from stars as big as Brad and Angelina. Despite expressing fears that he might become "Twilighted out" while shooting "New Moon" and "Eclipse" back-to-back, he nevertheless got back to work as Edward Cullen.



At the MTV Movie Awards, Rob unveiled a new trailer from "New Moon," Kristen Stewart left him longing for a cold shower, and he cracked up watching KStew fumble her trophy. During an exclusive interview, he promised that "New Moon" would look "amazing." Rob later returned for the Video Music Awards alongside Kristen and Taylor Lautner and helped raise eyebrows with their fashionable duds.




Despite rumors that his reduced screen presence in "New Moon" would keep him away, Rob made a surprise appearance at San Diego's Comic-Con to show off footage from the movie, reflect on a hallucinating Bella and hang out with the geeks. Things sure were a lot different than they were a year ago — even if Rob insisted he's stayed the same.



In the midst of all the hype, rumors and insanity, Rob actually managed to make movement on some non-"Twilight" movies in 2009. His romantic drama "Remember Me," opposite Emilie de Ravin, had a memorable time shooting in New York, which appears to have left him brooding after that time he was almost killed by a taxi — or barely grazed, depending on whom you ask. He also signed on to "Unbound Captives," a western co-starring Rachel Weisz that offered Rob the chance to play a character who "can't really be more different from Edward." He also signed on to "Bel Ami," a film that pits him opposite Uma Thurman as a "totally immoral character."

A Look Back On Robert Pattinson's 2009

But all that paled in comparison to when he hit the "New Moon" premiere, looking fashionable as he greeted the fans and talked about the good and bad parts of being, well, him. Fans freaked out when he hit the Hot Topic tour opening night, and in a very revealing Rough Cut with MTV News, he spoke about his lack of endorsement deals, why "New Moon" is his favorite "Twilight" book, what he loves about Kristen and Edward's annoying habit of parking his Volvo across multiple parking spaces.

To make a long story short, "New Moon" had a record-shattering opening and became one of the biggest films of 2009. Now, with Taylor Lautner hosting "Saturday Night Live," we continue to hope that RPattz can't be far behind — so let the guy write a sketch already! Edward might be a jerk, but of all the dudes who hang out in our office on a regular basis, Rob will always remain our favorite seasonal vegetable.

We'll be rolling out our list of the Top 9 Men and Women of 2009 two per day until Friday, when we unveil MTV News' Man and Woman of the year! As always, we also want to know what you think, so weigh in with comments below, or upload them to Your.MTV.com!

Fan Made Eclipse Trailer - helps Twilight Saga Fans hang on!

OKAY Twi Fans don't get me wrong!  I'm loving all the New Moon glory, really I am -- I've seen the movie 12 times already, and will see it on the big screen yet again!  I am so proud for Summit and the Cast and Crew that New Moon has already made over $620 million dollars worldwide!  I am ecstatic about that fact!  I am the #1 campaigner for #GoSeeNewMoonAgain, #TruFact! 

OK - Twilight sold me, New Moon has captivated me, and now I'm ready for the PR to begin for Eclipse!  Aren't you?????  I mean seriously within a mere 4 days after New Moon filming wrapped, we have our first teaser trailer for New Moon.  OK fans, do the math!!!  Eclipse filming wrapped almost 2 months ago!  YES that's right!!!  It's 196 days 11 hours until Eclipse!!  Okay, I know some of you think we had too much New Moon videos, trailers, etc. before the movie released.  Well maybe we did, but you can bet your last dollar, I watched them all!  YES, I did over and over!  So maybe we don't need quite as much for Eclipse (oh who am I teasing here, yes we do!!!!), but is a short & sweet teaser trailer too much to ask Summit @Twilight for????? I mean come on!!!!! 

Well since my many Twitter request have fallen on deaf ears over at Summit for either an Eclipse trailer or official confirmation on Breaking Dawn (yeah, best not to get me started on that subject).  I have decided to post this AWESOME fan made trailer for Eclipse -- At least we have something! 

ENJOY!  It really is quite good!

Thanks to sanyiaa for sharing this video with us! 
You can check out this and other videos she has made here!



Saturday Night Magazine: Celebrity Spotlight: Bryce Dallas Howard


She may have a last name that rivals most Hollywood heavyweights, but don’t think Bryce Dallas Howard rose to fame riding on her father’s coattails. Before starring in big name blockbusters like Terminator Salvation and Spider-Man 3, Ron Howard’s daughter paid her dues.


Thanks to a reputable background in theater, where she caught the eye of director M. Night Shyamalan who cast her in two of his biggest films, The Village and Lady In The Water, Howard’s career has blossomed on the big screen. This month, she emerges as a 1920s debutante in Tennessee Williams’ The Loss Of A Teardrop Diamond and next year will soon be seen as Victoria in the The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (replacing Rachelle Lefevre). While there may still be some skeptics (nothing can stop an angry Twilight blogger after all), Howard continues to make a name for herself all on her own.

SNMag: So you have a film coming out this month, The Loss of a Teardrop Diamond?


Bryce Dallas Howard: Yes, it comes out in select cities on December 30.

SNMag: Could you tell us more about the project and how you came to get involved with it?

BDH: It was such an amazing thing. I had enormous excitement when Jodie (Markell, the film's director) invited me to do the film. It was brave on her part because typically women who are pregnant don’t get movies. (laughs) But, Jodie, she’s a mother and she was incredibly inspiring and said, “You know I really think that you can do it and I will be really supportive of you and let’s play together.” That got me involved. Jodie reached out, and I’m really grateful.

SNMag: We heard that you were her first choice for the role of Fisher Willow. What are your thoughts on that?

BDH: The fact that she would feel that way is astonishing and humbling, and it was amazing to work with somebody who is also an actress because she knew this character so well. She knew this character not only from the perspective of a filmmaker but from the perspective of an actress. I could really rely on her in ways that I haven’t in previous projects. It was really great. It feels like this role was a genuine collaboration.

SNMag: When you initially applied to drama school you chose to drop your last name. Is that something that you’ve had to worry about, getting special treatment because of your father’s career?


BDH: That’s definitely something I think about a lot because I’m all about fairness. I have a huge thing about justice in life. I want to achieve things by my own merit. I’m really grateful to have a family that has an immense amount of wisdom, but I didn’t feel comfortable just going out there professionally with the Howard name. To be honest, I don’t think it would have made a difference. At the end of the day people just need an actor that does a good job. For my own well-being, I needed to remove my name at first so that I would never question that. My sister is an actress and she’s the same way. We’re just super sensitive to that. It goes back to justice and wanting to be fair. The idea that there’s another actress out there that’s better and not being hired because I know someone who is friends with my dad, I could never stomach that.

SNMag: What has it been like joining the cast of Twilight?

BDH: It’s a really extraordinary series and obviously the franchise really reflects what Stephenie Meyer has created with a lot of integrity. She’s so involved with the movies and it is really wonderful. It’s really an incredible storytelling moment. And people are really connecting with and responding to that. So I read the books and I just did my best for the character Victoria. I just wanted to do my best not to interfere with the books.

Kristen Stewart Is MTV News' #7 Woman Of 2009

'Twilight' star kept her indie cred with 'Adventureland' and broke box-office records with 'New Moon.'

Which stars had the biggest year? All this week, we'll be unveiling our top nine men and women of 2009, counting down to the #1 man and woman on Friday.

7. Kristen Stewart





At 19 years old, she already has an amazing 23 films under her belt. Yet, Kristen Stewart entered 2009 with a lot of questions: Was "Twilight" a fluke? How would the notoriously press-shy starlet handle A-list fame? And would "New Moon" "kill" her, as she promised?


2009 Highlights: It all began in the snowy mountains of Park City, Utah, where a bundled-up KStew arrived at the Sundance Film Festival to discover that paparazzi were everywhere — quite a difference from early 2008, when she walked down the streets unbothered. The "Twilight" star was there to unveil "Adventureland," a sweet coming-of-age drama that was well-received by critics and became a minor hit nationwide in April. Of course, 2010 will start out similarly for Kristen, as she'll be at Sundance next month with two films.

As the "New Moon" hype continued to build, KStew kept her indie cred intact. In March, she played a teenager suffering from a fatal nerve disease in "The Cake Eaters," a tiny character drama directed by Mary Stuart Masterson. KStew researched her role by spending time with real-life sufferers of Friedreich's ataxia and admitted that although she had a busy year ahead, she was glad the "Twilight" sequels were all filming so closely together.

Then, of course, the real craziness began. First came the MTV Movie Awards, where Kristen helped unveil first-look footage from "New Moon," shared a tender moment with Robert Pattinson and proved she's every bit as clumsy as Bella Swan. Later in the year, Kristen would return for the Video Music Awards alongside Rob and Taylor, this time considerably more glamorous.

Somewhere in-between all that, as she continued to shoot "Eclipse" and "The Runaways," KStew swung into San Diego's Comic-Con to hang out with 5,000 of her closest friends and unveil her new Joan Jett haircut.

Ashley Greens Spills 'Twilight Saga Eclipse' secrets -- Well Not Really!




ET exclusively went behind the scenes of Ashley Greene's photo shoot for Teen Prom magazine, where the actress (a.k.a. vamp Alice Cullen) dished about her rigorous fight and stunt training for 'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.'


"I was excited about the photo shoot. I wasn't too nervous, I've been in a prom dress before," said 22-year-old Ashley, looking glamorous in a strapless, floor-length purple gown.

"I'm trying to convince them to let me take the dress so I can go out in it," she giggled, "but I don't think it's going to happen."

Ashley, whose Teen Prom issue hits newsstands Dec. 22, also showed off a bruise on her arm (rendered practically invisible with makeup) that she sustained while training for the eagerly awaited third 'Twilight' film, 'Eclipse.'

"Until I had to shoot in prom dresses, I didn't get any bruises. I was doing really well," she smiled. "It's horrible, but it's been really fun. [Our moves] will look really, really good by the time we finally get to the fight sequence because in 'Eclipse' ... we have to fight this new-born vampire army."

She adds that her training involves "a lot of learning to run and jump off walls and land on people's shoulders, and flips and throwing your body just ways that you would never, under any circumstance, normally do."

'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse' arrives on the big screen June 30, 2010. Meanwhile, 'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' is in theaters now.

#GOSEENEWMOONAGAIN!!!!!

Ashley's Teen Prom cover dress will be donated to DonateMyDress.org, which collects gently-worn prom dresses and donates them to girls in need.

Johnny Depp to play Barnabas Collins in new adaptation of 'Dark Shadows'!!!


Tuesday, December 8


Johnny Depp Confirmed in Dark Shadows Adaptation

As far back as July 2007, Johnny Depp was rumored to be interested in starring in a theatrical version of the '60s TV series Dark Shadows. In August of this year, Tim Burton, who has directed Depp in several movies, said "the plan" was for him to direct Depp in the Dark Shadows adaptation, but he admitted that it was still in the "early days" of the project.

Now, producer Graham King has confirmed that Depp and Burton will follow up their Alice in Wonderland pairing with Dark Shadows.

We're actually going to shoot that film next September/October with Tim Burton and Johnny.

We've been working on the script a lot, even though [Burton's] working on Alice. We've been given a script. John August wrote the first screenplay. We're making some changes, but the film's going to be in production, as I say, September or October of next year.

Next Showing: Alice in Wonderland opens March 5, 2010

'Twilight' Plagiarism Lawsuit has been DISMISSED! As if it ever held any water anyway!!!



'Twilight' Plagiarism Lawsuit Has Been Dismissed


by Eric Ditzian in News

FROM MTV.COM: A copyright-infringement lawsuit against author Stephenie Meyer alleging plagiarism in "Breaking Dawn," the final book in her "Twilight" vampire series, has been dismissed, according to a statement sent to MTV News by Meyer's publisher.

Jordan Scott, the author of a 2006 supernatural novel called "The Nocturne," filed a suit in August accusing Meyer of lifting elements — including plot lines and developments — from her book for use in "Breaking Dawn." On Wednesday, United States District Court Judge Otis D. Wright II dismissed Scott's claim.
According to the statement from Meyer's publisher, Hachette Book Group, Wright's ruling stated that the two books have little in common and that the "characters in the two works are vastly different." The decision goes on to state that Scott "twice manipulated aspects of the subject works in order to create the appearance of similarity."


"This judgment confirms what we have known all along — 'Breaking Dawn' is a wholly original work by Stephenie Meyer and this was a frivolous lawsuit brought for the purposes of publicizing the plaintiff's personal publishing aspirations," Hachette said in its statement. "Hachette Book Group and Stephenie Meyer are pleased to be able to put this case behind us."

In August, Scott argued to MTV News that purported similarities between the two books could not be a coincidence. "This isn't about vampires or vampire lore; it's about the events in the book," said the author, whose book was never widely distributed to traditional bookstores. "From the main characters getting married and the description of the ceremonies, the feelings the characters are going through ... these are not things you typically see in the vampire genre."

Contacted for comment by MTV News following the dismissal, Scott's lawyer J. Craig Williams released the following statement: "Courts serve the function of resolving disputes between people who disagree over issues such as copyright infringement. We are pleased the judge very carefully made a side-by-side comparison of 'The Nocturne' and 'Breaking Dawn' and issued a considered opinion regarding his decision. At this point, Jordan Scott is studying her options regarding continued prosecution of her case against Stephenie Meyer."

Elcipse coming in June & here is what we hope will sell it to a wider audience - Twilightus says - MAKE IT LONGER!!


'Eclipse' Is Coming In June, And Here's What We're Hoping Will Sell It To A Wider Audience
While "New Moon" has certainly accrued fan approval and box office power since its release on November 20, critics haven't had the same appreciation for the vampire romance. "Eclipse," the next in the series, wrapped in October and is slated for a June 30, 2010 release, we have a few suggestions to help make it a film everyone -- not just Twilighters -- will enjoy.



Amp up the Bella and Edward romance


"Twilight" established the potent romance between Bella and Edward, but "New Moon" sacrificed much of the chemistry for the sake of Bella's growing bond with Jacob. Granted, the reason why Edward was mostly absent during "New Moon" was because he broke up with Bella and was moping around in an apartment for months on end, but Chris Weitz forgot to reestablish why exactly Bella and Edward were so in love. With "Eclipse," we hope David Slade explores their connection, especially with so many fans jumping ship to Team Jacob after seeing Taylor Lautner's abs.


Expand the secondary characters


Even though Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner are the biggest draws for most fans, secondary characters like Anna Kendrick's Jessica, Mike Welch's Mike Newton, Dakota Fanning's Jane and Michael Sheen's Aro were key to some of the most fun parts of "New Moon." "Eclipse" introduces a whole slew of new characters (Riley and Leah, anyone?) and we hope some of the old favorites aren't sacrificed for the new, especially with Anna Kendrick's potential Oscar win for "Up in the Air." Plus, there's the fact that the scenes in which Bella interacts with humans (like her father, played by Billy Burke, and the high school students) are some of the most interesting and well-acted in the series thus far.


Make the fight scenes more action-packed


Yes, we understand that a lot of care went into making the CGI werewolves in "New Moon," and thank goodness the fight scenes in the second "Twilight" installment were better than the first, but the final battle in "Eclipse" is the most action-packed part of the entire "Twilight Saga." With David Slade's previous vampire film "30 Days of Night" under his belt, we can expect some intense action, but we'd like to remind him we want to see some newborn vamps being torn limb from limb anyways (and not just in slow motion).


Make the film more appealing to a non-"Twilight" audience


There are a lot of elements in "Eclipse" that could attract an audience not made up solely of Twilighters. In "New Moon," there was no effort spent on setting up the story from the previous book or explaining why Bella and Edward are so in love. "Eclipse" was the book that made Stephenie Meyer's vampire series what it is today, and hopefully "Eclipse" the movie will break the film series out to a larger audience as well.


Have fun with it


Some of the best parts of "New Moon" were when screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg and director Chris Weitz let loose and had fun with the film. "Face Punch," anyone? (This I consider a stroke of genius. I expect a "Face Punch" movie poster for Chanukah.) Flying Virgin America to Italy? Jessica's commentary on zombie films? If "Eclipse" doesn't take itself too seriously and doesn't hold itself too close to the book, it could turn out to be not only a great movie for "Twilight" fans, but a great film in general.

NM Costume Designer talks about Rob & Chris's decision to change Edward's wardrobe


You have to immediately like a costume designer who’ll admit that she’s wearing sweatpants while chatting with you from her Vancouver home. We phoned Tish Monaghan, who took over styling duties for The Twilight Saga: New Moon and Eclipse, to talk about how Edward ended up in a suit, why Jacob’s muscles are bulging through his shirt (when he actually wears one), what department mandated that the wolf pack’s jean shorts be extra tight, and more.


ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Anyone who’s listened to the Twilight DVD commentary knows that Robert Pattinson wasn’t a fan of Edward’s pea coat.

TISH MONAGHAN: He wasn’t a fan of the pea coat. He wore it in virtually every scene, and I think maybe he just got tired of it. I’m guessing. [Laughs] He just wanted a more mature look. That was part of Edward’s Grade 11 year, and now he’s getting into his graduation year, he’s in a relationship. He had worn hoodies and jeans and sneakers, and Robert, the director [Chris Weitz], and I all wanted to portray him more as a gentleman, more elegant and classic. With our vampire characters, I always went back to the time period in which they were turned to see if there’s any element I could try to simulate in contemporary clothing. He came out of the Edwardian period, around 1910. Of course, most of the gentleman from that time would be wearing suits, coats, hats, etc. We had to pick something that was iconic for the character that would suffice to be used throughout the whole film. At the very beginning of the film, he has one school outfit, and then there’s Bella’s birthday party and disaster strikes. So Edward ends up in that same costume for the remainder of the film. I was thinking of just putting him in a dress shirt and a pair of pants, but Robert wanted to be in a suit.

So I found a modern contemporary look that would be appealing to him and to the massive fan base, a very slim cut, and a fabric that to me was a bit Old World — this beautiful tweed fabric that we got out of England. It had the gray base, which is kind of essential for the Cullen characters in their cool tones, but also had little interesting flecks of blue, which is also Cullen, and a tiny little bit of rust, which I liked because Bella wears earth tones and that kinda linked her into the picture. The general texture of the suit would hold up well no matter what setting he was in: Inside the house for the party, or in the forest, or in the Volturi chamber. We had to show wear on the suit, and it’s much easier to rough up something that has texture to it than just a flat piece of wool. His pants are worn at the knees, they’re rumpled.

I don’t know if anyone’s looking at his pants when he removes his shirt in Italy.

The fans were very excited to see that, I don’t know if Robert was particularly excited to perform that in front of 1,500 people. I think it was quite hard for him to do. We originally tested Edward in a plain white shirt, as a forlorn-looking option. That is also what Robert wanted — he wanted something that would wash him out. But you need to have a color that makes you pop, and so we actually dyed the fabric this beautiful ink blue ourselves. It highlighted his vampire white skin really well. I think it’s a great moment when we see him in these clothes that he’s worn from September to May. When he goes to sacrifice himself, he’s in disrepair. Robert and Chris wanted his shirt to have a rip across the chest, so that’s what we gave him. It’s really kind of tragic to watch him take off his shirt, because he really is sacrificing himself. It looks like he’s just giving up. He’s exposing himself and he’s completely vulnerable, and he just takes his shirt off and he drops it at his feet with his eyes downcast. Then he gets attacked by Bella, who shoves him inside the doors. [Laughs] I don’t find it like a beefcake moment. It really is a moving moment, and I think Robert did a really amazing job for that scene.

The tear across the chest was to symbolize that his heart was torn out when he thought he lost Bella?

Maybe. [Laughs] They just said, “Rip it across the chest.” I said, “Are you sure? No shirt’s gonna rip like this.” And they said, “Yes.” So I did it.

Why couldn’t he remain shirtless for the indoor fight scene? Why put on the robe?

Originally, the guards who grab him were supposed to be coming from the outside — that’s why they give him the robe. But the setting was changed, and they grab him on the inside. So why do they hand him this robe? Because, quite honestly, it looks very cool fighting with this long, flowing garment, and it does hide pads, protect him.

Melissa Rosenbeg on Victoria causing Harry Clearwater's heart attack....

'New Moon' Scribe Melissa Rosenberg On Making Victoria The Cause Of Harry Clearwater's Death

When MTV sat down with "The Twilight Saga" screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg, one of the big questions she addressed was the inclusion of Victoria (Rachelle Lefevre) as the reason for Harry Clearwater's (Graham Greene) death.


"In the book, Harry Clearwater's death, heart attack is mentioned as something that's off screen, although it plays a crucial role in the structure of the books," said Melissa. "Reading that it was Harry Clearwater's heart attack it just gave me the idea of, why don't we see this? Stephenie [Meyer] doesn't specify what caused the heart attack, so I decided, well, you know, if could be caused by something startling him. It could be caused by fear."


As Melissa said, in the novel there is no explanation for Harry's death, just how it worked as a plot point. By adding that it was a sighting of Victoria while he and Charlie were "hunting" for the wolf pack that set off the heart attack doesn't violate Stephenie's story, and instead adds a new dimension to that moment.

"It was a way to keep Victoria alive, it was a way to keep Charlie and the hunt alive, the danger to Charlie alive," said Melissa, "and that's where we get a really great action sequence with Victoria that all blends together with important parts of the movie and bring parts of the book forward. I particularly like that."

20 Min. of deleted scenes from New Moon to be on 2010 release of New Moon DVD!!

Nov 23 2009 4:13 PM EST

'New Moon' Director Chris Weitz Reveals DVD Details
Weitz plans to include at least 20 minutes of deleted material from the blockbuster.
By Larry Carroll


BEVERLY HILLS, California — After this weekend's record-shattering opening, "New Moon" is now officially the biggest film of 2009. In a few months, it will inevitably become one of the biggest DVD releases of 2010.

So what can we expect from the "New Moon" DVD? Recently, we caught up with director Chris Weitz and got the scoop on the disc you'll soon want sitting next to "Twilight" on your shelf.



"There will be a commentary track," Weitz revealed, saying that he'll soon head into the recording booth with his three big stars, Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner. "It'll just be us riffing off each other in our intimate way," he grinned. "We kind of like each other, so that should be fun."

In addition, fans can look forward to picking up a copy of "Twilight in Forks," the independently made documentary that teased fans with brief glimpses of its exploration into the real-life town that inspired Stephenie Meyer, only to be snatched up by Summit in September. An insider told MTV recently that the film will not be re-edited but will hit DVD alongside "New Moon" with all-new packaging and artwork.

Judging by the insatiable appetite of Twilighters, they'll be filling DVD stores in the first quarter of 2010, eager to glimpse the deleted scenes Weitz plans to unveil for the first time.

"There will be probably about 20 minutes of deleted material," he explained, promising some meaty footage. "It really is good stuff and a bonus for the fans."

Among this bonus footage could be several moments MTV knows was shot but did not make the final "New Moon" cut, including:

» A scene with Rachelle Lefevre as Victoria driving to Forks in a car, snacking on a dead human. It was one of the final moments the actress filmed as the nomadic vampire.

» A scene with the human characters eating Burger King.

» Another scene with the humans, this time with Justin Chon and Michael Welch expressing jealousy over Edward's car.

» More scenes with the Volturi in Italy.

» An extended cut of the scene where Mike Newton quotes Shakespeare to Bella in the Forks High parking lot; in it, he does a Marlon Brando impersonation.

» Scenes alluding to the ongoing breakup between Newton and Anna Kendrick's Jessica.

"When I made the film, I wanted it to arrive at a certain kind of flow and cadence," Weitz said of why he had to leave so many scenes on the cutting-room floor but hopes to restore many for the DVD. "[They would have affected] how the movie worked, and they didn't completely fit. But there'll be some groovy stuff in [the DVD]."

Twilighters React To New Moon Ending!

Twilighters React To The 'New Moon' Ending
by Adam Rosenberg in Video
FROM MTV.COM: "New Moon" director Chris Weitz seems pretty pleased with the way he ended the second movie in the "Twilight Saga." But the fans who have already gotten a chance to see the movie are still reeling from Weitz's directorial decision. Not to give too much away, but some said it wasn't the conclusion they'd expected.




"I was really surprised by the ending, the way they kept us hanging like that," Jordana de la Cruz from Rhode Island told MTV News, after seeing a midnight screening in New York. "I hated it, but I liked it at the same time."

New Moon Director left make out scene to Rob & Kristen!!!


'New Moon' Director Left Make-Out Scene To Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart


'I think it would be creepy and inappropriate for me to advise them how to kiss one another,' Chris Weitz laughs.

By Eric Ditzian, with reporting by Laura Whitmore

How exactly does a person direct two of the biggest movie stars in the world during a make-out scene? How do you approach the task if one's playing a vampire and the other is still in her teens? For Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart's "New Moon" lip-lock, director Chris Weitz just sat back and shut up.


"Capturing those [scenes] is really a question of just allowing the actors to do their work," Weitz told MTV News in a recent interview. "They know their characters. They know the tone they're supposed to hit."

The director's job in this case, Weitz explained, is not to intrude on the connection the actors have already established — especially considering RPattz and KStew had gone through a cinematic romance in 2008's "Twilight."

"It's not like when they're about to kiss, I'm leaning in and saying, just off camera, 'Tender, tender!' or anything like that," he laughed. "I just let them do their thing. I think it would be creepy and inappropriate for me to advise them how to kiss one another or what it's like to be young in love. I'm 40 years old. I'm not going to Polanski out on them."

One area Weitz did take an active role in was making sure the "New Moon" set was free of any Pattinson and Stewart relationship rumors. "I very much want the set to be completely free of all those concerns and any pressures that are coming from the outside world — paparazzi — and the tremendous attention that they're under," he said.

From MTV - Rob & Kristen's 1st Interview

Robert Pattinson & Kristen Stewart: MTV's Very First Interview With The 'Twilight' Stars Has Been Unearthed!

There's been some nostalgia over here at MTV as we take a look back to a year ago when "Twilight" was still on the brink of becoming a hit. MTV News conducted its first interview of Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart together in April 2008, and needless to say, you wouldn't hear her admit in a shy voice "I think he's really handsome" in any interviews nowadays.



The two admitted they had spent a lot of time together in pre-production because they were staying only two blocks away from one another.

"We sat around my dining room table for two entire nights and read the script," she said.


"Two nights?" he replied. "It was more than two nights."

"It was actually all of pre-production, but there were two nights that were actually productive."

In today's are-they/aren't-they mentality, it's hard not to have your ears prick up at the news Rob and Kristen weren't very "proactive" when they were hanging out together, but back then it was just the innocence of two people beginning to fall in love with one another. Whether that "love" is in friendship or in romance, only time will tell.

They talked about how they spent nights watching Marlon Brando's racy "Last Tango in Paris" and how Rob bought Kristen a copy of Virgil's "Doomed Love." These weren't your average kids, but two artists who took their craft seriously and found a bond with one another in that fact.

It was also their first time being asked what it was like to kiss each other on camera.

"His teeth are pretty sharp," Kristen laughed. "It's great. I like it."

"Every time I just try to kill her," Rob replied

How I Became A 'New Moon' Extra (from MSN.com)


I love the articles I find on my home page at work, especially when they are about The Twilight Saga!  Look what I found this morning when loggin on from work!

How I Became A ‘New Moon’ Extra


By Myriam Gabriel-Pollock

For MSN Movies

Don’t let Maile Roundtree’s appearance fool you. She looks like a normal adult woman. She’s a wife and a mom who owns a successful jewelry design business. She loves to entertain and to travel, spend time with family and friends, and curl up with a good book. But underneath this seemingly conventional exterior lurks one of those people. Yes, Roundtree is a Twihard, defined by UrbanDictionary.com as, “a serious and obsessive reader of ‘The Twilight Saga’ by Stephenie Meyer.” As the Twilight Superfan on MSN, I was awash in awe and envy when I first heard about Roundtree’s Twi-umphant quest to be an extra on the “New Moon” set in Italy. Over coffee and pancakes, she happily shared her fantastic story.

Roundtree, her husband, and young daughter were on holiday in Cortona, Italy, when she learned that “New Moon” would begin filming in nearby Montepulciano on the day they were scheduled to return to the U.S. Though she had discovered the “Twilight” books only four weeks before, she devoured the series in a matter of days, and her husband graciously let her delay her return so that she could take part. With a new plane ticket and her family returning home without her, Roundtree headed to Montepulciano.




When she arrived in the picturesque Italian hilltown it was already overrun with hundreds of starry-eyed young girls and “crazy moms like me” from all over Europe. Roundtree likens this female pilgrimage to the film “Close Encounters of the Third Kind,” with actor Robert Pattinson drawing in the faithful like Devil’s Tower. She had to ask the film crew three times to be cast as an extra before they finally relented.

[Continued from MSN Movies here...]

Montepulciano was already beautifully decked out with red banners, which were actually owned by the town for use during the Palio, an annual athletic contest and festival celebrated in many Italian towns, with roots going back to the Middle Ages. In the wine-producing town of Montepulciano, the contest requires the competitors to roll a huge wine barrel through the steep, winding streets; the first person to the piazza wins
 

Her first day on set started very early, but Roundtree gleefully admits, “I have never been so happy to be up at 4:00am!” Although it was still dark out and the rest of the town was asleep, the film crew had no problem getting 1200 extras signed in and distributing the red cloaks. Through most of this day the extras got a crash course in the unusual rhythms of filmmaking, waiting up to three hours for a shot to be set up, three quick minutes of filming, and then starting the cycle all over again.


For most of the extras the most difficult thing to deal with was the heat, up to 100 degrees in the unshaded cobblestone piazza. The red woolly cloaks were incredibly hot, particularly for the women, who had to keep their hoods up most of the time. Perhaps not surprisingly, this was because most of the extras were female, and the director, Chris Weitz, did not want the crowd in the piazza scene to look so obviously female-dominated.

People Magazine - Is that the look of love?

The Insider Talks to the Volturi - A GREAT INTERVIEW!!!!

"The Insider" sits down with Dakota Fanning, Jamie Campbell Bower, Michael Sheen and Cameron Bright from The Twilight Saga: New Moon.


The foursome play members of the ruling vampire clan, the Volturi in the sequel to Twilight, and they open up about their characters' evil intentions.

Veteran stage actor Michael Sheen says of playing his diabolical 2,000-year-old character, "I like the idea of someone who thinks of himself as a nice, sweet grandmotherly type but who's actually a psycho killer underneath. ... So, I like the idea of playing someone who is sort of soft, quite loving and thinks of himself as being very sentimental and then likes to pull people's heads off."

Dakota Fanning has a long history of playing nice girls, and tells "The Insider," "It was the first time playing an evil character, but that was one of the reasons why i wanted to do it. It's more fun playing bad girls, more fun than playing good girl."


Michael says of the Twilight series in general, "What's wonderful about these stories, I think, is that there are very fantastical elements, and supernatural elements, and magical elements, and at the same time, it's very moving and touching and it really seems to speak to people's hearts. So it's really wonderful to be in these films."

Come back Monday to see "The Insider"'s extended interview with the Cullen women: Ashley Greene, Nikki Reed and Elizabeth Reaser, and come back every weekday until 'New Moon' premieres in theaters on Friday, November 20 to see a new ET video with the cast!

Kristen Stewart - "I'm the luckiest personl in the world!"

Etertainment Wise reports in a recent interview with MTV, Kristen Stewart admits, "I'm the luckiest person in the world!" AND WE AGREE!!!!!


Kristen Stewart says appearing in The Twilight Saga has made her “the luckiest person in the world”.


The 19-year-old actress, who plays schoolgirl Bella Swan, has previously said it was hard coming to terms with the film's success.

But in a new interview with MTV, Stewart conceded that she was fortunate to be part of the vampire franchise.

“The fact that I get to do this on such a large scale?" she said. "I'm the luckiest person in the world."


However, Stewart did admit that there were times when she wished she could leave her hotel room without being followed.


"I want to do nothing. I literally just want to go outside and go for a walk,” she said

Demitri and Felix invade Cherry Hill Mall; part of New Moon Promo Tour!




HollywoodCrush has a great article on more New Moon Promo Tour visits!


Moon' Mall Tour: On The Scene With Daniel Cudmore & Charlie Bewley At Cherry Hill


Charlie Bewley would totally date you, "Twilight" fans. He said so himself at the Cherry Hill, New Jersey stop on the "New Moon" mall tour yesterday. There's a catch, though. He won't marry you. "I don't believe in marriage. I believe in polygamy," he jokingly said while turning down a fan's proposal. Though he clarified later that he was just kidding about the polygamy part (his actual stance on marriage remains unclear), from the deafening screams of the crowd, they might not have cared either way.

Hundreds of Twihards turned out to meet Charlie and costar Daniel Cudmore, who play Volturi guard members Demetri and Felix in the latest Twilight Saga installment, during the Nordstrom- and Hot Topic-sponsored promo tour. The lucky ones who camped out last weekend, some for more than 12 hours, made a purchase to get either a photo or an autograph from the Volturi vampires. Just 75 Nordstrom shoppers got their photos professionally taken with the boys, while 500 Hot Topic customers got their "New Moon" posters signed.


Erin Bradley, Courtney Allmond, and Clariece Swan, all 16, drove two hours from Hershey, Pennsylvania and skipped school (shhh, we won't tell) to be the first in line for a photo. "We're as hardcore as you can get," said Courtney. It's true — the girls waited 23 hours to meet Peter Facinelli (a.k.a. Carlisle Cullen) a couple of weeks ago. Clariece said her parents don't always approve of her "Twilight" love. "My parents think I'm insane and they don't really like it. But they've gotten used to it by now." For the record, they're on Team Edward. As Erin put it, "Do you have to ask?"

Doesn't look like Rob & Kristen are promoting New Moon apart from each other to me, Hollywoodcrush Agrees!


So much for all those crazy rumors that Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart would continue to embark on their around-the-world "New Moon" press tour separately (apparently people assumed they were planning to do so to avoid the inevitable are they? or aren't they? chatter)! The duo were flanked by costar Taylor Lautner and director Chris Weitz as they introduced the City of Lights (a.k.a. Paris) to the "Twilight" sequel.


Before you dive into our photo gallery from today's press tour stop, there are two interesting tidbits we feel we should point out. First, instead of "Nouvelle Lune" (like we would expect) the step-and-repeat poster behind the stars read, "Twilight Chapitre 2: Tentation" — which, means temptation in French ... ooh la la. And secondly, KStew really upped the feminine quotient by donning a cream colored J. Mendel dress that seemed to be draped perfectly on her figure. We welcome this transition from her previous press tour choice in Brazil — jeans, a tee shirt (with a gun on it) and suspenders. Though, then again this is France, we wouldn't feel right if we weren't dressed to the nines either.

Is Edward Cullen A Major Jerk? See what Hollywoodcrush finds out from Rob Pattinson



He'll shield you from runaway minivans, scale ancient Evergreens with you tucked safely on his back and even serenade you with a soothing lullaby on the piano. Edward Cullen is basically the world's best—dead or undead—boyfriend ever. Or is he? We've got to admit, some of the bloodsucker's behavior in the upcoming "Twilight" sequel seems a bit—dare we say it?—jerky. When we caught up with actor Robert Pattinson at a press junket in Beverly Hills, we couldn't help but ask if Edward really is a tool. And we had some pretty damning evidence in hand. 

In "New Moon" Edward makes his first appearance whizzing into the Forks High school parking lot in his signature Volvo. But when the vamp parks his sweet ride he takes up not one, not two but three (!!) parking spots. Kind of a douchey move, right? After blaming director Chris Weitz for the parking faux pas, Robert rationalized the maneuver saying, "I think [Edward did it] because that was the only spot, there weren't any other spots available. It would be less of a dramatic entrance if I'm, like, backing up into something," he added with a laugh.

EOnline asks: How Weird Are All Those New Moon Vampire People






So what was the most interesting or weirdest answer you heard at your New Moon press junket?


—MDuncan, via Twitter



You mean I have to pick just one? On Friday I sat through an entire afternoon of Cullens, Volturi and Wolf Pack members, not to mention at least one guy with an English accent, leather jacket and stand-up hair.

I think any answer about weird/interesting things said there deserves a Top Five list. At least.

Here goes:

1. The current fetishes among the Cullens include this gem from Kellan Lutz: "I'm just obsessed with candy and animals. I love safaris now. I can't go to a zoo. When I was in Africa, I went on a safari and giant white lions and tigers were walking right by our place. Baboons were trying to break in our car and steal my candy, which isn't nice."

2. Perhaps oddly, Nikki Reed is seen as more maternal than Elizabeth Reaser. "I really feel like Nikki is way more maternal than me. She's much more of a caretaker...She would cook me dinner and make me coffee. She was so sweet."

3. Reaser and Reed have made up a fantasy life for their characters. When they aren't standing around in the Cullen house trying hard not to eat Bella, "Esme goes out and tears apart a mountain lion, every other night," Reaser says. "We decided that Esme and Rosalie tear apart mountain lions together," Reed added.

Hollyscoops New Moon interview with Rob Pattinson & kissing Kristen Stewart

Kristen says Taylor Grew Up During New Moon



In an article from People Magazine, Michael Y. Park writes that according to Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner grew up during New Moon.

Taylor Lautner's transformation from human to wolf wasn't the most impressive change that came over him for New Moon, according to Kristen Stewart – even more astounding was the way the 17-year-old went from skinny teen to hunky sex symbol for his role.


"He's literally become a different person. He's just grown up," Stewart, 19, said at a recent press conference to promote New Moon. "He's so confident and the nicest guy that I've ever met. I know that I'm using this grammatically incorrect but he's the funnest guy I've ever hung out with. So he's great. I'm so proud of him."

Lautner credits his routine of five days a week at the gym – and a gut-busting 3,200-calorie daily diet – with getting him in werewolf shape.
"Everybody thinks it was the actual getting in the gym, that was easy," he said at a press conference in Beverly Hills Friday. "But, the eating was pretty hard … Putting something in your mouth every two hours. And I'm busy. I'm downtown L.A. going from meeting to meeting, so there's not time for me to be eating. I literally would have to carry a little baggie full of beef patties, raw almonds, sweet potatoes, so it's not like every two hours I'm eating ice cream."


As for the public scrutiny of their love lives, Stewart, who's been rumored to be romantically linked with Robert Pattinson, is already an old hand at dealing with the gossip.

New Moon Director Chris Weitz says expect 10 min. of deleted scenes on New Moon DVD!


Collider.com has the following interview with New Moon Director Chris Weitz, whereas, Chris is discussing footage that we will see on the New Moon DVD that will not be shown in the theaters.

Exclusive: Director Chris Weitz Says Expect 10 Minutes of Deleted Scenes on THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON DVD

When you attend a press junket, you never know where and when you’re going to land a scoop. Sometimes you get a great story during a roundtable interview, and other times you’re sharing an elevator ride with the director of “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” and you ask him about the DVD. Which is what happened to me today.


On my way to do an interview with producer Wyck Godfrey, I happened to run into director Chris Weitz. Since I didn’t have a chance to ask a question during the press conference, I used my shared elevator ride to find out what extras would be on the DVD and how many minutes of deleted scenes “Twilight” fans could expect. While he confirmed the usual stuff like a commentary with Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner, the big news is he told me there would be around ten minutes of deleted scenes. More after the jump:

From the way Weitz spoke, I believe the DVD is going to have the deleted scenes placed back into the scene so you can watch the full scene play and not just see the stuff that was cut out. I’m not sure if the movie will be an extended edition, or if the deleted scenes will be in a separate area of the disc. I’m sure we’ll hear about that soon enough.


The big news for fans is you’re going to get ten extra minutes whenever the DVD/Blu-ray gets released.

Here’s my conversation with Chris Weitz. Due to the short amount of time, I was unable to find out exactly what was cut out.


Collider: What can we expect on the New Moon DVD?

Chris Weitz: On the DVD there will be some deleted scenes, there will be a commentary with me and I think Kristen, Rob and Taylor at the same time, and some making of and behind the scenes type stuff.

My big question is how many minutes of deleted scenes?


Weitz: I think it’s around twenty.

Rob Pattinson Interview from 11/06/09 Press Junkett


The Twilight Saga: New Moon Robert Pattinson Interview


Written by Christina Radish Friday, 06 November 2009 22:49

In The Twilight Saga: New Moon, the second chapter in Stephenie Meyer's phenomenally successful series, the romance between mortal and vampire reaches an intense and dangerous new level, and reveals a conflict that will haunt Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) as the story continues. Delving into the age-old rivalry between the Quileute tribe and the vampires, which comes to a head with her best friend, Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner), and her love, Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), Bella quickly learns that the supernatural world that she longs to become a part of will put her at more peril than ever before.  As the reluctant vampire who has millions of females swooning all over the world, Robert Pattinson has been working non-stop since signing on for the first Twilight film. Having just wrapped filming on The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, the actor also hopes to make Bel Ami and Unbound Captives, before returning for the final chapter, Breaking Dawn, tentatively set to film in the Fall of 2010.



At the film's press day, Robert Pattinson talking about getting used to life with the world watching your every move.

Q: What has this past year been like for you? How are you dealing with things? Are you more comfortable with everything now?

Rob: I guess it's inevitable that you become more comfortable. You still fight against some things. There's nothing really scary about the franchise itself. I like all the people I work with. I generally have very few disagreements about the script or anything while we're doing it, especially on New Moon. It just seemed so relaxed and easy. I've been on three different sets, since January 14th. I've had like three days off. I'm going to be on set all next year as well. I don't know what doing errands and things is really like 'cause I haven't had a sustained period of time where I've been off. I don't know how it's really changed. I still feel like I'm pretty much exactly the same, which is maybe not a good thing.

Q: Can you talk about working with Chris Weitz, and how the syllabus he gave the cast helped you?

Rob: I've never had that, from any director. It was 40 or 50 pages long, in addition to a bunch of letters and emails, trying to show that he was on the same page as us and was completely with us, in making the film. And, he didn't falter from that attitude, throughout the whole movie. It probably sounds ridiculous how much praise he gets. I was just with him and his wife in Japan, and she was even kind of sick of it. But, he is like a saint. He's one of the best people I've ever met, let alone directors. In a lot of ways, it shows in the movie. It's got a lot of heart, especially for a sequel in a franchise. He's just a great person to work with.

Q: Appearing in most of the movie as only a series of visions, did you feel disjointed from your cast mates at all? Did you wish you were in more of the film?

Rob: Those scenes were the hardest scenes. They weren't really, at the time, but after I saw the first cut of the movie, they changed them quite a bit in the edit and ADR. It's not Edward. It's a manifestation of Bella's loneliness and desperation. It was always very difficult. I asked Kristen, "How would you play it?" It's her opinion, so that was hard. As for being alone, I've always felt a little bit aloof as the character, throughout the whole series. I think that's how he is, so I didn't feel any different.

MTV Talks to Rob Pattinson at New Moon Press Junkett

t' Star Robert Pattinson Addresses Pregnancy Rumors
'Yeah, it's in my armpit because I'm hiding it from everyone,' he jokes.

BEVERLY HILLS, California — Rob and Kristen are engaged. They're going to name their first child a combination of their mothers' names, just like in the "Twilight" books. A big wedding is on the way, quite likely with Bigfoot officiating.

As their fame has grown, so has the insanity level of the rumors about their personal lives. On Friday, "New Moon" star Robert Pattinson sat down with MTV News, and was eager to address one of the more notable bits of news he saw the last time he Googled himself.





"I like the story about me being pregnant," laughed the 23-year-old British heartthrob. "It was in some Australian magazine, on the front page!"

As they've filmed "New Moon" and "Eclipse," Rob and Kristen Stewart have spent the last 12 months going from "the kid in the Harry Potter movies" and "the girl from 'Panic Room' " to the type of people whose every move is meticulously discussed, whether real or not. Luckily, Pattinson has the sort of self-deprecating British wit that allows him to laugh it all off.

"I was like, 'Wow, that's just [insane],' " he said of the pregnancy rumors. "And it's not even ironic.

"I don't even think the article [tried to justify it]; it was just a headline," Spunk Ransom marveled. "The article was just like, nothing."

Does Rob Pattinson Confirm Breaking Dawn?


Robert Pattinson Confirms Fall 2010 Start for 'Breaking Dawn'


Rumors had been swirling about the last chapter in the Twilight Saga film franchise: would Breaking Dawn get greenlit or not? While everyone from Twilight producer Wyck Godfrey to star Kristen Stewart managed to stay tight-lipped about the unconfirmed sequel at today's New Moon press conference in Beverly Hills, our hopeful hearts got a piece of very big news about the film from none other than Robert Pattinson.


Answering the last question of the day, Rob shared his shooting schedule for 2010 – including, at least for now, filming the novel adaptation Bel Ami, the western Unbound Captives, and yes, Breaking Dawn.

"I think the tentative time for Breaking Dawn is fall of next year," Pattinson said, adding that Summit "may well change that."

"Depending on how things go I'm doing a movie called Bel Ami in February, which is an adaptation of a Guy de Maupassant novel," he continued. "And I'm doing, I hope, a Western with Rachel Weisz and Hugh Jackman called Unbound Captives sometime around there as well.
