No Fifth Twilight Film, Says Source


Posted on Aug 22, 2009 @ 10:02AM

Twilight fans will be disappointed to learn that there will NOT be a fifth movie in the Twilight series. Yet. Sources tell RadarOnline.com that “It is absolutely not true,” that the fourth book Breaking Dawn will be split into two movies, denying fans another chance to see their beloved Edward on the big screen.

The newest addition to the Twilight family, Boo Boo Stewart, told Access Hollywood that he was signed on for three more movies (if you’re counting that means Eclipse, Breaking Dawn and an unnamed third) but our source insists that this is not the case…AT THIS POINT! So we’re going to hold our vampire breath, hopefully not for long, and keep our fingers crossed that the Breaking Dawn screenplay turns into two vampire movies.

The rest of the cast are spending free time in Vancouver doing what everyone else does in their downtime, shopping and working out. At least fans only have to wait until November 20 to see the second movie in the Twilight Saga: New Moon when it hits theaters.

Fandango howls about 'The Twilight Saga: New Moon.'


August 20, 12:00 PM by Twilight Examiner Amanda Bell


A second portion of Fandango's behind-the-scenes look at The Twilight Saga: New Moon has been issued, and it is full of spoilers (though if you're here, you've either already been spoiled by all the Quote of the Days or you have read the books).

The account details a couple of scenes that prior set visit testimonials have certainly delved into quite nicely.

"[T]he domed, encapsulated set is constructed entirely of wood. Ladders are leaning against it in various places and spotlights are placed around it to give that sunlight-streaming-in effect," says Fandango's Lizerne Guiting.

The scene described in the account is, of course, the infamous Edward torture scene in the Volturi lair (involving none other than Robert Pattinson and Dakota Fanning, along with Kristen Stewart, Michael Sheen, and others). Guiting revealed a quote from the scene, said by Kristen Stewart as Bella.

"Stop! Stop it! You're hurting him!" she desperately yells and stutters to Jane, not taking her eyes off Edward. "Do whatever you want to me! Try it on me—Try it on me! Just stop hurting him—please!"

Guiting goes on to discuss meeting Stephenie Meyer and Melissa Rosenberg, as well as her encounter with other Volturi castmates like Christopher Heyerdahl and Jamie Campbell-Bower.

What she describes of Dakota Fanning, however, would be proven accurate by the "Meet Jacob Black" feature released by Summit Entertainment recently.


Fanning looks nearly unrecognizable with her pale skin and her hair pulled back into a sophisticated, twist up-do. Her red lips match her wide, blood-red eyes, accented with smoky eye-shadow. She's wearing a black and purple, hooded dress coat with a small cape around her shoulders. "The coat's adorable!" Meyer says.

Guiting's account continues with information about Robert Pattinson and Ashley Greene's sequences, and she also details some of the crew member antics that coincide with some of these events.

The Twilight Saga: New Moon Set Visit Part 2
More on scenes with Kristen Stewart, Rob Pattinson, and Dakota Fanning, and meeting author Stephenie Meyer.

August 17, 2009
By: Lizerne Guiting
Fandango Film Commentator



Dakota Fanning stars as Volturi guard Jane in "New Moon."

Now that you've read the Part 1 of our two-day New Moon Vancouver set visit, we'll dive right in to our spoiler-ridden Part 2!

There's a smoky haze all around the sound studio and the air is heavy with the smell of sawdust. We media folks are gathered around the viewing area, where monitors and headphones are set up for VIPs who have their names on the back of their chairs. Stephenie Meyer and screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg are among them. We're standing behind them, quietly scribbling notes on every little thing.

Kristen Stewart's Heated Rehearsal


The monitors show the inside of the Volturi's underground lair. To us, standing right outside of it, the domed, encapsulated set is constructed entirely of wood. Ladders are leaning against it in various places and spotlights are placed around it to give that sunlight-streaming-in effect. Kristen Stewart rehearses a scene with Cameron Bright, who plays Alec. Off screen, Alec's witch twin – Jane (Dakota Fanning) – is torturing Edward with her special power that gives the illusion of pain. All we see is Stewart's reaction: "Stop! Stop it! You're hurting him!" she desperately yells and stutters to Jane, not taking her eyes off Edward. "Do whatever you want to me! Try it on me—Try it on me! Just stop hurting him—please!" Bright holds her arm as she futilely attempts to twist free. Cut to a close-up of Stewart's face. Her brows are furrowed and she's misty-eyed. The camera lingers on Stewart as she falls silent. Off screen, we hear a high-pitched laugh and voice of Michael Sheen, who plays Aro: "How remarkable! She confounds us all..."


Kristen Stewart and director Chris Weitz on the set of New Moon.

The rehearsal continues a few more times, with different camera angles set up on Stewart. In between takes, she and director Chris Weitz discuss. Stewart's hand gestures are pronounced, but she manages to keep smiling. A man walks up to her and gently combs her hair back into place. On set, a guy yells "Everybody, shut the hell up!" silencing the whispers that are adding to the ambient noise. After some of the takes, Stewart has a smirk on her face—she looks slightly embarrassed. It reminds me of a scene in Twilight where Bella is in the hospital and she's stuttering the word "no" as she pleads with Edward not to leave her. Suddenly, someone from the crew marches up to our viewing section. "All guests, step out," he commands tersely. He repeats himself, and I and the other press members get a move on. Did Kristen request that we leave? Who knows. Outside, we spot a blond bloke wearing a Volturi get-up, loitering with a cigarette in one hand and a water bottle in the other. It's Caius (Jamie Campbell Bower)! We snag him for an exclusive interview. He's hilarious—definitely the comedian of the Volturi coven.


Meeting the Writers


When a crew member calls us back inside, we tiptoe back to the viewing area; they're finishing up the rehearsal when our studio contact beckons us to meet Stephenie Meyer. She smiles warmly and we exchange whispered greetings and handshakes. She's been completely gracious to everyone on the set from what I've observed. A crew member had approached her earlier to have a copy of "New Moon" autographed, to which she kindly obliged. The whole time, she's been sitting at the viewing area watching the Volturi scenes come to life. Volturi actors like Charlie Bewley, who plays Demetri, and Chris Heyerdahl who plays Marcus, also stopped by the viewing area during their breaks to watch. It was difficult not to notice the 6-foot-4 Heyerdahl, who stood beside me towered over me. He, too, met Meyer for the first time during our set visit.

During downtime, we meet up with Rosenberg who had just finished a first draft of Eclipse. As a screenwriter for "Dexter," she'd been working double time to churn out a quality script for the next Twilight episode (complete with Easter eggs or "winks" for avid readers). "I'm really, really aware now in a way that I wasn't with Twilight of how intense and huge the fan base is," she confesses. "I don't want to be the woman who kills their beloved book." She's been watching the Volturi scenes with Meyer and she says they're turning out better than she imagined. She's ecstatic about the Volturi casting. "Oh my God, it's fantastic!" she says, having viewed the shooting. Although this movie puts more of Jacob in the spotlight, she promises Edward still has a presence. "I think fans will feel pretty satisfied with what we are doing, one, because it's true to the book, and two, because we'll see more Edward."

Like every book-to-film adaptation, Rosenberg admits there are differences in the film. "There are many things that change, but as long as we hit the emotional experience, I think it will resonate the same way," Rosenberg says.

There's been lots of talk going around about a Volturi fight scene in the movie that's not in the book. Stunt coordinator J.J. Makaro says it'll be a different style than we're used to seeing. "We're striving for a look of our own," he says. We're trying to strip down all of the old things that you've seen in a vampire movie. If you've seen it before we try to get rid of it—try to figure a different way around it."

Dakota Fanning Jane and Edward's Torturous Scenes

One little vampire who plays a huge role in the new film is Jane, played by Dakota Fanning. As the more prominent witch twin, she's known for her an angelic look that clashes with her sadistic persona. In the scenes we view, she's using her special gift—inflicting pain on her victims without lifting a finger—on Edward. Edward's scene was altogether filmed separately since he was on wires, but let's include what we saw from that scene, too, for continuity.

Robert Pattinson is cloaked in a hooded crimson, velvet, Volturi robe and his bare chest is partly exposed. As Aro gives Jane the green light to try her power on Bella, Edward runs in front of her and he receives the full fury of Jane's infliction. Pattinson stops in his tracks, arches his head back and expresses a look of excruciating pain. He lets out a grunt, the wires pull him back, and then drop him on his back. A camera that's zoomed in on Jane's face shows her red eyes widen and follow him to the spot on the ground where he falls. She hardly blinks. As Bella begs her to stop, Jane keeps staring, and her lips curve into a faint, smug smile.

Meyer and others watch throughout, mesmerized. After the take, Dakota stops by the viewing area and says "See you tomorrow!" to Meyer. Fanning looks nearly unrecognizable with her pale skin and her hair pulled back into a sophisticated, twist up-do. Her red lips match her wide, blood-red eyes, accented with smoky eye-shadow. She's wearing a black and purple, hooded dress coat with a small cape around her shoulders. "The coat's adorable!" Meyer says. After she's left, Dakota's stand-in provides a much better look at her paper-thin, pixie-like dress underneath. It's cream-colored and layered, and she's wearing white tights and one-inch heeled Mary Janes.

Robert Pattinson and Ashley Greene


After his torturous ordeal with Jane, Edward lies on his back on the marble floor of the Volturi chamber. Aro is in the background and Alice (Ashley Greene) crouches at his side. One of her hands is on his shoulder and the other is on his stomach. She has an "are you OK?" look on her face as she hovers over him. A crewmember issues them stage directions: To Pattinson: "In pain." To Greene: "Now you look up at Bella." When Edward sits up, the velvet hooded robe he's wearing comes off a tad too much revealing his chest. Some crew members giggle as someone from wardrobe fixes it and reties the knot. I guess they're going for just a hint of skin...

Before we switched studios to check out Pattinson's green screen work, we loitered on the Volturi sets after the cast and crew took off. We walked through one long, sand-stone colored passage that begins with a dungeon-like gate (probably the place where Volturi guard Heidi lures her victims); multiple arches stretch across overhead. On the sides of the passage walls, there are cavern crevices with little gardens. Each has different animal statues and some have water fountains. There are also stalactites, giving it an ancient, yet beautiful aura associated with the Volturi. The passage was actually made of Styrofoam—yes, I touched it—but it's amazing how much painstaking detail was put into all the sets, costumes and stunts to bring the Volturi to life.

Don't miss the rest of our New Moon features, including interviews with Taylor Lautner and Rachelle Lefevre.

Kristen Stewart strips for James Gandolfini’s ‘Welcome to The Rileys’

Although I'm not a big fan of Kristen Stewart's, I HAVE accepted her as playing the part of Bella for that's all we've been given. This article I thought would be of interest to the fans so here it is.

August 21st, 2009

WASHINGTON - Actress Kristen Stewart will appear nude in her new film Welcome to The Rileys.

The Twilight star plays a young lap dancer plus prostitute, and walks around naked in many scenes in James Gandolfini’s new flick.

Apparently, the teenage star was a little nervous to film the scenes, and so she asked her Twilight co-star Nikki Reed to join her on the set of the film in New Orleans, Louisiana.

“I’m going with Kristen to New Orleans… while she’s shooting and I’m a good support system… I have to go to be with Kristen,” Contactmusic quoted Reed as telling About.com.

But Stewart is excited about the film and feels that her nude shots will lure her fans to theatres.

She said: “It’s an independent movie that nobody would normally see and now it’s like, ‘Oh, let’s go see Bella (Twilight character) in this stripper movie; it’ll be crazy!’”

Also, Kristen is delighted to work with the Sopranos star and considers the role in the film to be the hardest she has ever done.

She added: “Working with James Gandolfini and (co-star) Melissa Leo, who is just incredible, was the most fruitful life-changing experience on a movie that I’ve ever had.

“It was just the hardest subject matter I’ve ever had to deal with - I play a very broken young girl who is a runaway. She’s

a street kid. She’s working in a strip club and James Gandolfini’s character is just as dead inside as she is - and they wake each other up.”

Breaking Dawn: What's Up With the Movie?!



Tue., Aug. 18, 2009 1:57 PM PDT by Marc Malkin


Breaking Dawn will be made into a movie!

While there's been no official announcement that all systems are go for a fourth Twilight flick, a rep for Summit Entertainment promises that Eclipse will not be the last we see of Robert Pattinson & company...

"The fans should rest assured the we're working with Stephenie Meyer to bring Breaking Dawn to the big screen," the rep said. "As in all creative processes, things take time. We want to make sure we get it right."

And as Twilight fans know, that probably means softening the more hard-core aspects of Breaking Dawn.

"Our fans are in the PG age range, and I don't feel a big necessity to see violence and to see gore," Twilight/New Moon/Eclipse screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg told us in late April.

Gore or not, Kristen Stewart probably said it best when we chatted with her in March.

"We all really hope there is going to be a number four," she said at the time. "I'm pretty confident that the fans aren't going to...lose interest. The only case that a fourth one wouldn't be made is if all of a sudden people stopped caring, and I really don't think that's going to happen."

New Moon Trailer 2?

I could have sworn that I heard that another New Moon trailer was coming out today. I looked at YouTube, and found several along with the info that the trailer was going to be at the theatres debuting after some movie, which name escapes me.
Anyway I looked at some of the ones at YouTube which the users say they filmed at the theatre, they are BAD quality. However I found one, and while I don't think it's an official trailer, there WERE more scenes in it than the previous official N.M. trailer and the teaser.

I don't know where the user got this but the quality, was the best I could find. Enjoy!

Twilight 'Eclipse' Gains Another Solid Actress


Maybe this will be the Maria to put her on the map
BY: Brad Brevet | August 12th 2009 at 5:51 PM


Five years ago I would have guessed Catalina Sandino Moreno would have become a bigger star to this point after her terrific (yet disturbing) performance in Maria Full of Grace, and while she has still managed a few solid roles, her name isn't on the tip of everyone's tongue. Well, she is returning to the role of a Maria as she has been cast in Summit's The Twilight Saga: Eclipse as the vampire Maria, a woman who tries to create a newborn army of vampires, recruiting the Confederate soldier Jasper (Jackson Rathbone) to her cause.

Eclipse is the third film in the franchise as The Twilight Saga: New Moon is set to hit theaters on November 20 following last year's hit Twilight.

Sandino Moreno is the second star to join the Eclipse cast in recent days as Jodelle Ferland and Jack Huston were also recently recruited. Ferland's character is yet to be confirmed while Huston will play Royce King II, a human that lived during the Great Depression.

In Eclipse, Bella (Kristen Stewart) once again finds herself surrounded by danger as Seattle is ravaged by a string of mysterious killings and a malicious vampire continues her quest for revenge. In the midst of it all, she is forced to choose between her love for Edward (Robert Pattinson) and her friendship with Jacob (Taylor Lautner) — knowing that her decision has the potential to ignite the ageless struggle between vampire and werewolf. With her graduation quickly approaching, Bella has one more decision to make: life or death.

A new trailer for New Moon will be arriving this Friday while the following 14-second teaser to that trailer was released to whet the Twilighters' appetites. Yes, an actual teaser for a teaser was officially released by the studio. They know exactly what they are doing… and it's working.

'Twilight' Stars Amazed By Teen Choice Awards Sweep




Aug 10 2009 9:48 AM EDT

'It never gets old,' Kellan Lutz says of the movie's many accolades.

By Larry Carroll

UNIVERSAL CITY, California — The sky is blue. Water is wet. And once again, at Sunday's taping of the 2009 Teen Choice Awards, mankind was reminded of one more indisputable fact: Teens love "Twilight."

"All the wins were incredible," marveled Ashley Greene, moments after the show ended and the stars of the saga walked out with 11 awards. "It's such a bizarre thing to be invited — and then to clean up the way we did? Our fans are indescribable — it's amazing, who does that? Who gets to be a part of that? It's a blast, and it was a really cool show."

Surfboard awards were handed out to Greene and friends for Choice Movie: Drama, Romance, Actor (Robert Pattinson), Actress (Kristen Stewart), Villain (Cam Gigandet), Fresh Face Female (Greene), Fresh Face Male (Taylor Lautner), Liplock (Stewart and Pattinson) and Rumble (Pattinson and Gigandet). Another highlight came when RPattz walked onstage to accept his Choice Male Hottie prize alongside female winner Megan Fox. Fans can see the whole thing when the show airs Monday evening (August 10) on Fox.

"It was fantastic, but we couldn't hear anything that anybody was saying," Jackson Rathbone said of the moment when the whole cast went onstage together. "When Taylor was talking, when Rob was talking, when Catherine [Hardwicke] was talking, we were all looking at each other, like, 'Can you hear that?' I didn't know what was going on."



"I'm utterly amazed; it's so exciting how many people love the movie," Justin Chon gushed on the red carpet before the event. But all these months after the cast's memorable MTV Movie Awards sweep, he said receiving accolades still hasn't gotten old. "I don't think you ever get used to it. It's always a new experience at every awards show; it's for a different demographic. If it speaks to teens, that's great."

"It never gets old," Kellan Lutz agreed, thinking about the evening's events. "Twelve noms? That's amazing. ... Rob's here, Jackson's here. Summit's brilliant at casting people with awesome hair and full lips.

"It's an awesome story about forbidden love," Lutz added, getting serious for a moment. "You can't go wrong with that."

As Twilighters know, all the kids in Forks love to go surfing at La Push beach — otherwise known as the 'hood of Mr. Jacob Black. But despite the 11 surfboards that "Twilight" won at the Teen Choice Awards, Lautner insisted that he won't be taking any of the trophies out for a test drive.

"I'm not the best surfer, so that might not be a good idea," he laughed. "Yeah, I've got to do some practice."

'Twilight' tops Teen Choice Awards with 12 nods


The "Twilight" phenomenon rolls on as the teen vampire romance leads with an even dozen nominations going into this Sunday's Teen Choice Awards.

"Slumdog Millionaire" may be the reigning Oscar champ, but it runs far behind "Twilight" with only six TCA bids. The two films face off for best drama as well as actor (Robert Pattinson and Dev Patel) and actress (Kristen Stewart and Freida Pinto).

Six of the "Twilight" cast – Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, fresh-face nominees Taylor Lautner, Ashley Greene and Nikki Reed, as well as Kellan Lutz – are slated to appear on the Teen Choice Awards. The kudofest – held at the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City – airs Monday night on Fox.

At the MTV Movie Awards in May, "Twilight" won five awards, including best film. The Teen Choice Awards boast many more categories, with seven surfboards handed out for top films as well as actor and actress in the following genres: action/adventure, bromantic comedy, comedy, drama, horror/thriller and music/dance.

In second place among the movies is "High School Musical 3," which has 10 nominations, including best music/dance movie and four acting nods (Corbin Bleu, Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens and Ashley Tisdale).
