NextMovie: What 2011 Has in Store for ‘The Twilight Saga’ Cast

Breaking Dawn 220KristenStewart NextMovie: What 2011 Has in Store for ‘The Twilight Saga’ Cast anna kendrickNext Movie has put together a list of some of our Twilight cast on their 2011 upcoming projects!
Wondering what’s in store for “The Twilight Saga” cast this year? Thankfully, we know they’re all currently shooting “Breaking Dawn” and “Part 1″ will be released on November 18. But since that’s like – I don’t know – 5,000 days away (not exact math), I’m sure I’m not the only one curious to know what other projects our favorite young actors have hitting our local cineplexes this year.
Kristen Stewart
In 2011, Stewart will continue to grace low-budget features with her million-dollar pout.
Francis Ford Coppola, after owning the movie rights to Jack Kerouac’s “On The Road” for 31 years, is finally producing an adaptation with Sam Riley as the main character Sal Paradise and Garrett Hedlund (“TRON: Legacy”) as his party-crazed cohort Dean Moriarty. Stewart is playing Moriarty’s first wife Mary Lou, who is a partier, openly flirtatious and sexually devious (natch). When her husband abandons her, she sleeps with one or two or nine sailors to get even. (This one doesn’t have a release date yet, but we’re hoping it makes its way to theaters as planned in ’11.)
In addition, Stewart and her mother are still trying to get funding for “K-11.” Called one of the strangest projects in Hollywood, KStew would play a male-to-female transsexual prisoner with autism and Mama KStew would make her directing debut. All I’m saying is, if playing a male-to-female transsexual prisoner with autism doesn’t win Stewart an Oscar, I don’t know what would.
More after the break!

Breaking Dawn water for elephants rpattz reese 220 NextMovie: What 2011 Has in Store for ‘The Twilight Saga’ Cast anna kendrickRobert Pattinson
You can tell from Pattinson’s movie choices that he wants fans to love his brain, not just his looks. Watch out Rob, it took Brad Pitt years to be taken seriously. Pattinson has played a seriously gay Salvador Dali in “Little Ashes” and the seriously dramatic Tyler Hawkins in “Remember Me.” Now he’s slated for two period dramas in 2011. “Water for Elephants” will open on April 22, and casts Pattinson alongside Academy Award winners Reese Witherspoon and Christoph Waltz. Hopefully his acting chops are strong enough to stack up against them, and also the elephant.
The other film is called “Bel Ami,” and no it’s not affiliated with the gay porno company of the same name (in case you were wondering). It’s based on French author Guy de Maupassant’s second novel, published in 1885, and stars Pattinson as a young Parisian climbing to power by manipulating the city’s wealthiest women. “Bel Ami” doesn’t yet have a release date, but you can be sure they’ll be some intensely dramatic love scenes with he and co-stars Christina Ricci and Uma Thurman. Or so a guy can dream
Breaking Dawn Taylor Lautner Abduction220 280x205 NextMovie: What 2011 Has in Store for ‘The Twilight Saga’ Cast anna kendrickTaylor Lautner
This year Lautner will flex more of his famous muscles as the star of “Abduction,” scheduled for a September 23 release. The thriller, which is described as “Bourne-like,” follows Nathan Harper (Lautner) as he tries to find the truth about his life after finding his baby photo on a missing persons website. Of course, the truth doesn’t end up being at all easy, and Harper must punch, and kick, and drive his motorcycle really fast away from shadowy government figures. His hardcore fans can only hope he still gets really hot and has to take his shirt off.
Bryce Dallas Howard and Anna Kendrick
These ladies couldn’t be further away from each other in the “Twilight” storyline, but they’re teaming up in 2011 for “Live With It.” Also starring Joseph-Gordon-Levitt, Seth Rogen and Anjelica Huston, the movie is a black comedy about 27-year-old guy who’s diagnosed with cancer. It’s from director Jonathan Levine, who made the sublimely funny  and not-wack-at-all “The Wackness.”
Jackson Rathbone
The man who plays Jasper Hale will get into full art-house mode starring in this year’s “DaZe: Vol. Too (sic) – NonSeNse.” Also featuring Gary Busey and recently-deceased Andrew Koening (Boner from “Growing Pains”), the trailer looks like Andy Warhol rose for the dead to make one last feature. Rathbone will also star in “Zombie Hamlet,” which promises to mix Shakespeare, a movie within a movie, and of course, zombies.
Breaking Dawn lolmileyashley 280x205 NextMovie: What 2011 Has in Store for ‘The Twilight Saga’ Cast anna kendrickAshley Greene
By looking at 2010′s upcoming projects, you may think Greene is the biggest star here. She’s in FIVE different movies that should all be released this year, not including “Breaking Dawn.” “Skateland,” “Butter,” “LOL,” “A Warrior’s Heart” and “The Apparition” don’t look like they’ll be the biggest blockbusters, but she stars in all of them. “LOL” is probably the most notable, because she appears alongside teen queen Miley Cyrus — but isn’t that like cheating on “Twilight”?
Kellan Lutz
This beefy actor also has four other films in the works this year, including “A Warrior’s Heart” with Greene. Going heavy on ACTION, Lutz appears in “The Killing Game” with Samuel L. Jackson and “Immortals” with Mickey Rourke (in which he plays Poseidon!) while also lending his voice to the animated “Guardians of Luna.”
Nikki Reed
Since dropping out of “K-11,” Reed’s main project is potential blockbuster “Catch .44″ with Bruce Willis, Malin Akerman and Forest Whitaker. The thriller promises a psychopathic hit man, a grizzly trucker, and a delusional line cook, so I’m already there.

Breaking Dawn Filming News: Wyck Godfrey Answers Some Of Our Burning Breaking Dawn Questions!

Breaking Dawn images 280x158 Breaking Dawn Filming News: Wyck Godfrey Answers Some Of Our Burning Breaking Dawn Questions! breaking dawn birthUSA Today has an awesome new interview with Twilight Saga Producer, Wyck Godfrey. In the interview Wyck answers some of the more frequent questions the fans have had surrounding Breaking Dawn -
Q: Where does the story split in half?
A: “We basically want to take the audience through the emotional part of Bella’s journey as she becomes a vampire. The first part will cover the wedding, the honeymoon and the birth.” The film ends just before she embarks on her supernatural transformation.
Q: The book has three segments, two of which present Bella’s point of view and a middle that’s devoted to the perspective of her rejected werewolf suitor, Jacob (Taylor Lautner). How is that handled?
A: “The story will break from her and follow Jacob throughout the course of the movie as he struggles with his own dilemma. There is a sense that as Bella and the Cullens (Edward’s makeshift vampire clan) deal with her pregnancy, the world is still turning outside with Jacob.”
Q: Why was Bill Condon, the Oscar-winning filmmaker best known for his musicals as the screenwriter of 2002′s Chicagoand the director of 2006′s Dreamgirls, selected as the director of the finale?
A: “These films have the most difficult stuff from a performance standpoint. With his history of directing, I can’t think of anyone who would be better at bringing out the best in an actor.” Plus, the director, who did the 1995 sequel to Candyman, is a fright-fare enthusiast. “He has an appetite for the genre and a passion for the Twilight books and movies.”
Q: Considering what goes on during the torturous birth process, how can the rating be PG-13?
A: With Twilight‘s core of under-18 fans, “it would be a crime against our audience to go R-rated.” However, “this is based on a much more mature book. We need to progress and be more sophisticated.”
A compromise: Having the bloody, bone-crushing delivery be seen only through Bella’s eyes. “She is looking through the haze, experiencing pain and everything rushing around her. We only see what she sees.”
Q: How is the long-awaited consummation of Edward and Bella’s love portrayed?
A: Even though their physical relationship goes way beyond what was shown in the first three films, “it does not become soft porn. It is a legitimate and important part of the movie, romantic and sensual.”
