The Twilight Saga: New Moon' star Michael Sheen gets an Emmy nomination for 'Relationship'

Michael Sheen ("Aro" in The Twilight Saga: New Moon) is probably having a nice day today, considering he's just been announced as one of this year's Emmy nominees for his work in The Special Relationship.
Sheen is nominated for "Outstanding Lead Actor In A Miniseries Or A Movie" for Relationship, and the film itself received quite a few other nominations as well.
Relationship isn't the only New Moon cast-related nomination on this morning's list.
Jamie Campbell Bower ("Caius")'s The Prisoner, Peter Facinelli ("Carlisle Cullen")'s Nurse Jackie, and Melissa Rosenberg (screenwriter)'s Dexter are also recognized in several categories (as is Jimmy Kimmel Live's "Handsome Men's Club" episode which poked fun at Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner).
The Emmy Awards nominations are available in full here.

Twilight' taking a break from Comic Con this year

It's been pretty obvious to most Twilight fans that this year's San Diego Comic Con (unlike the last two, which included huge panels with the cast and filmmakers from Twilight and The Twilight Saga: New Moon) wouldn't include anything on the Saga, but Cinematical has confirmed that fact for sure.
The Twilight Saga: Eclipse's promotions were in large part carried out via the mid-June press junket and the wealth of cast appearances at the Official Twilight Convention stop in Los Angeles, and at this point the film is already out.
As far as The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn is concerned, there'll be plenty of time for next year - especially since production is a few months down the road and things are still in the scripting/casting/location scouting phase at this point.
So, the Twilight series will be taking a break from Comic Con this year.

Twilight Trio Could Earn Over $40 Million Each For Both Breaking Dawn Films!


 According to New York Magazine, Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner will receive $25 million dollars US each, for both Breaking Dawn Part 1 and 2, plus 7.5% of the films’ gross revenue -
the three will each receive $25 million US for Breaking Dawn, Parts 1 and 2, and as if that weren’t enough, they’ll also receive 7.5 per cent against the films’ gross revenue. Going by conservative estimates, it means that once they’re done sparkling, exuding angst and falling in love with vampire babies, the three actors will probably earn about $41 million US each for the last two films.

New Interview — Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner, & Peter Facinelli Talk Breaking Dawn!


 Cinematical.com has a new interview with Breaking Dawn cast members Kristen, Rob, Taylor, and Peter, discussing only Breaking Dawn!
In the interview they touch base on everything from Bella’s wedding dress to the evolution of their characters, Edward’s hair to how long it will take to film Breaking Dawn -
In Breaking Dawn, what do you think Edward’s evolution will be?
Pattinson: I haven’t read it yet! I mean, it’s weird – I’m starting it a month after this job and it’s something I’m quite glad I haven’t read it yet. I didn’t intend to not read it until now, it’s quite exciting. I have no idea, I just heard brief rumors about what happens in the story but I don’t really know what happens at all
Your current haircut is shorter than Edward’s. How are you going to go about getting your long hair back for Breaking Dawn?
Pattinson: I’m thinking maybe Edward got a haircut – it might be easier. I didn’t even think about that when I got it cut, that is a bit silly. Vampires can cut their hair though, so I like the idea of Edward having a shaved head in the last one. That [would be] pretty cool.
Read more after the break!

Taylor Lautner
Since Breaking Dawn will be two movies, do you if one movie will be from your perspective and one will be from Rob’s?
Lautner: I do know it will be two, which I am extremely excited about. It is going to be great. Bill Condon is doing both. I it going to be awesome and I can’t wait to work with him.
Do you have a clause in your contract saying you have to keep your shirt on?
Lautner: No clause (laughs). Whatever the book says is most likely what we are going to do.
How long have you known that Breaking Dawn was going to be two films, and how long will the shoot be?
Stewart: The shoot is going to be something like six months. We start in October. I think we’re not going to be finished until maybe March or something, maybe February. I clearly don’t really look at the schedule. I had to hold onto this forever. They’ve been talking about it for a really long time and we all definitely knew that it was going to be two movies forever now. It’s been really hard not to say that. We’re all really stoked on that.
What designer would love to see design Bella’s wedding dress and if you could dream it up what would it look like?
Stewart: Well, Stephenie [Meyer] is absolutely in charge of that. I’m sure she has really specific ideas. I haven’t really thought about it. But I feel like Bella would definitely want something like really classic and really simple, too but beautiful. I have no idea in terms of designers.
Would it be white?
Stewart: Yeah, or like creamy, but definitely classic. She doesn’t want to get married and because it means so much to Edward and because he has such different sensibilities and such different values, I think because she’s going to go ahead and go through with it she’s going to give him everything. I think it’s going to be like a really beautiful and monumental wedding because he wants that. Usually it’s the opposite. Usually the girl wants it. It’s cute.
What are you most looking forward to doing when you start shooting Breaking Dawn?
Facinelli: I’m looking forward to working with Bill Condon. He’s phenomenal. I’m looking forward to hearing what his thoughts are on the series and the movie. It’s cool because all these different directors have these different interpretations. You don’t get complacent and sit back and go, “Ok. I know these characters.” They’re always asking you different questions and getting you to think deeper.

New Moon Still Top Opening Day Movie!

 
New Moon is still the title holder for top grossing opening day movie of all time. While everyone thought Eclipse would beat out New Moon, New Moon is still the opening day winner and is currently beating Eclipse in revenue -
Yet that applause is surely tempered somewhat, as “Eclipse” failed to out-gross “New Moon,” its series predecessor, which opened last fall with $178.9 million in box-office receipts over six days. While there can be no exact comparisons between the initial performances of each film, since “New Moon” opened on Friday, all eyes are going to focus on the ultimate question: Will “Eclipse” defeat “New Moon” at the box office?
“It has a real shot at beating ‘New Moon,’ and that’s after ‘New Moon’ set the bar so high,” said Paul Dergarabedian, president of Hollywood.com‘s box office division. ” ‘Twilight’ fever is so intense that it burns bright at the front, and then it inevitably slows down. But the movie has good word of mouth, and it should hang in there.”
“New Moon” finished up its theatrical run with $296.6 million, and as Box Office Mojo points out, 48 percent of that total came on its opening weekend, making it the most front-loaded blockbuster ever. What that means is Twilighters hit theaters early — and, in many cases, often — and “New Moon” simply couldn’t sustain its audience enough to crack the upper echelon of all-time top grossing flicks (it dropped a staggering 70 percent in its second weekend). Similarly, fans came out in droves for “Eclipse,” and it remains to be seen if the film can avoid such a precipitous second-weekend fall.

USA Today Talks Xavier Samuel


USA Today has an article all about Xavier Samuel.
Check it all out here.
Here is an excerpt:

Samuel steals not only the first five minutes of one of most anticipated movies of the summer, but much of its finale. He plays newborn vampire Riley Biers, who, alongside vengeful vamp Victoria, leads a bloodthirsty army of young vampires with one goal: killing human Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) and those who protect her.

Hailing from Adelaide, he now joins Hollywood’s short list of hot young Aussie men in the spotlight, including brothers Chris Hemsworth (Star Trek) and Liam Hemsworth (The Last Song), and Sam Worthington (Avatar).
There was only one problem en route to the Eclipse set.
“I was going through the book going, where’s Riley?” says Samuel, whose character gets a major upgrade in the screenplay version of Eclipse. But director David Slade slipped him an early top-secret copy of Meyer’s recent novella, The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner, in which Riley and Victoria’s relationship is more deeply explained.

Here is an excerpt:
2. He Grew up on a Farm
Pre-vampire, Bewley was a country boy, helping out on his parents’ farm. The future screen star had no problem feeding animals or stacking hay bales. But the one job he hated: “Mucking out a hens’ shed. That’s a fun job,” he jokes. “You only do that when you really want something out of your mom.”

Bryce Dallas Howard


Telegraph has an interview with Bryce Dallas Howard.
Check it all out here.
Here is an excerpt:
Jumping on to the Twilight juggernaut – which has so far grossed over a billion dollars at the global box office – must have been thrilling.
‘I was really intimidated when we first started filming. I didn’t want to mess it up,’ she says. ‘But it was a fantastic experience. I am technically what could be considered a “Twi-hard”. I love the books.’
Without spoiling the plot (for those who haven’t read the books), Howard’s bitter and twisted vampire has a lot to contend with in this film, including heavy-duty fights with the conflicted, heroic Edward.
‘There’s a massive battle at the end where Edward and Victoria really face off, and obviously that becomes a huge spectacle with two vampires fighting one another. There’s a lot of swiping, grabbing, throwing, tackling. It’s totally a brawl. Everybody had bruising, but I dislocated my wrist.

Jack Huston Interview

has an interview with Jack Huston.
Check it all out here.
Here is an excerpt:
Details: In The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, you play the former fiancé of Edward’s sister, Rosalie. How did you land the part?
Jack Huston:
I auditioned for another part—a newborn vampire—and kind of shocked the producers. I acted like a junkie. I hadn’t slept the night before and had drunk lots of coffee. Everyone was like, “Um, a little too edgy.” But they liked me enough to offer me this part instead.

Details: What’s it like to be part of the Twilight phenomenon?
Jack Huston:
I have never seen anything like it, actually. I turned up for shooting and, literally, everyone was there—children, teenagers, 20-year-olds, mothers, older ladies. There was an English teacher, who had saved up her time off and flown from England to Vancouver to put herself up in the same hotel as the cast. She sat in the lobby all day, just to see them walk out. That’s a little extreme, but I like her dedication.

Robert Pattinson talks Breaking Dawn & Portraying a Dad


With 3 out of 4 books of  The Twilight Saga already on the big-screen, Robert Pattinson is all about Breaking Dawn talk these days.  In this interview Rob lays it all out for us.  He talks of the Eclipse set atmosphere, Stephenie Meyer, and his anxiety of this saga coming to an end.
What are you looking forward to about “Breaking Dawn” being shot back-to-back as two films and of Bill Condon directing them?
I’m glad that it’s Bill Condon. I love his stuff. I haven’t seen the script yet but I am fearful about the series’ end. It’s such a great security blanket. It’s like a net. You can afford to make mistakes when you have another “Twilight” film to make. After that, I guess you’re on your own.
I’m glad the “Breaking Dawn” films will be done together. Because otherwise, it’s quite hard to fit another film in-between each one. Like what happened in “Eclipse”—having to get your mind back to where it was before. I had about a week of preparation time. It was quite stressful in the beginning. With the two films done together, you can just stay in character the whole time.
In the tent scene which is already the much talked-about thing in “Eclipse,” your vampire character is of course cold, body temperature wise, while Taylor’s Jacob drives home the point that he’s literally hotter.
It’s sort of an odd scene. It’s quite difficult. It’s incredibly depressing for Edward (laughing). It does make him seem incredibly unattractive. But I never really got it in the first place. It’s like having some freezing cold person next to you (laughing). It’s horrible.
Taylor told us that you were always cracking up in that scene.
I was in a very strange room when we were shooting that scene (laughing). I kept getting obsessed with the idea of the word “thoughts” with an American accent. It sounds like “farts.” I couldn’t get over it the entire day. The opening line was, “Can you at least keep your thoughts to yourself?” I’m sitting in this tent and every single time, I laugh over that line. Taylor got to the point where he was like, “Those words don’t even sound the same. It’s not funny at all.”
I think I was tired. I find all this stuff where we have to boss each other all quite funny. Considering that we’re in teen-girl magazines and stuff … Taylor always has his shirt off. And I’ve got my little quaff (laughing). We’re trying to act all macho. I thought it was really funny.
Talk about the dynamics between the three of you now that Jacob gets to kiss Bella in this movie.
It’s weird. Not only do they do the kissing scenes—they never do it when I am even on the set. I have the day off. You genuinely feel like someone’s cheating on you. Then you come back to the set. And almost always, it’s after one of their scenes where I suspect them of doing something. It just so happened every single time—I would come into work being like, “So how was it?”
Can you set the record straight—your Edward character is a 100-year-plus-old virgin?
I think he’s … how old is he now? He must be 109 or 110. There’s an arguable point with another vampire in Alaska from the first book. It’s briefly mentioned. But I can’t remember if it’s actually fully explained if he is a virgin or not. I think the fans like to believe he is.
Since these “Twilight” films are fantasy /romance/thriller dramas, may I ask which love stories inspired you? I have to sound really cheesy and say my parents. My parents met when my mom was 17 and my dad was 26. They’re still together. I grew up in an age where everybody gets divorced.
But in terms of film, I’ve always liked despairing, painful love stories . I think that’s probably because I’m still young. There’s a Godard film called “First Name: Carmen.” I’m not even going to attempt to say the French pronunciation. I always found that to be one of the most truthful and inspiring love stories I’ve seen on film.

How uncomfortable is it to be acting with contact lens on?
You can’t feel properly. You can’t sweat. If you do anything to sweat, everything starts breaking on your face. You can’t even psyche yourself up for a scene. I don’t know how people do scenes with contact lenses on. I just find it impossible. The Edward character is about restraint and restricting yourself about everything. He’s not a very effusive person. A lot of the performance should be done with your eyes but then you eliminate that ability by putting the contacts on. Whenever I do other movies in which I don’t have to wear contacts, I breathe a sigh of relief.
In “Breaking Dawn,” you become a father and Bella becomes a vampire bride. Do you have tips for Kristen on playing a vampire? Do you feel that you’re mature enough to play a dad?It’s funny because I’m playing a dad in some scenes in “Breaking Dawn” and I’m portraying one in a movie I’m doing now as well. I’m terrified about doing it. I don’t know what I’m going to do when it comes to those scenes. I’ve been complaining so much about having the makeup on and contact lenses. Kristen is like, “You’re so pathetic. You have to just get over it. Why can’t you just get used to it?” [Now, since Kristen has to wear contact lens, too], I can finally be like, “You will know what it’s like. You’re going to be in constant aggravation the whole time.” Which is great.
We don’t see a lot of guys like Edward who protects a girl’s virtue. Do you relate to him at all? How old-fashioned are you?
I think I’ve become more old-fashioned. I feel like I’m already turning middle-aged now (laughing). It’s quite nice to be doing a series of films that a lot of people think uphold positive virtues. Some people actually think the films are a good influence on their kids.
Stephenie Meyer was on the set of “Eclipse” more often than she was on the first two movies. What was that like?
It’s not intimidating. She’s really nice. She really likes the films. It was strange, though. I didn’t really notice until toward the end of the filming. I was like, “Stephenie has been here every day” (laughing). It was interesting. She’s always open. She would never really come in and push anything on us. She was open to answering questions.
You have a western genre film project, “Unbound Captives,” in development. Why are you fascinated with westerns?
I grew up watching westerns. My dad’s favorite movies are all westerns. I hope that film happens. It’s such a complicated film to get together because it’s not really an action film or anything. It’s a slightly depressing romantic drama, half of which is in Comanche. It will definitely be different. My character is a massive stretch for me.
You play the guitar. How important is music for you?
It’s really important. Incidentally, my sister is a singer and a songwriter. Acting has helped as well because I’ve never really had any particular interest. The only reason I’d start releasing records is hopefully so I get a name in music and have good people who would want to collaborate with me. I guess having a name in acting, you can get your foot through the door with quite a few musicians. I hope I’ll be able to record some stuff just for myself. The idea of selling it—as soon as you start making it—it dies in a lot of ways. It’s too scary at that point. Then everyone feels the need to judge it. But if you’re not making money and you’re doing it for yourself, then no one’s going to judge it.
“Twilight” is very popular with young people, including Jaden Smith. What kind of books and music did you like when you were a teenager?
I was obsessed with a writer called Martin Amis when I was a teenager. I read everything. Every single time I went to a bookshop, I’d see if he has other books. I used to buy multiple editions of his books.
Martin, Van Morrison and Jimi Hendrix—they were my people when I was growing up. I’d obsessively collect all their stuff.
That’s funny about how Jaden likes the “Twilight” thing. He’s like the first guy who’s willing to admit it (laughing).
What has so far been a life-changing experience for you?
My moving to secondary school. I was kicked out of my first school. There is a whole system of the schools in London where I went from one school to another and then to university. Everybody went to the same schools. But I got kicked out. I ended up going to an arts school which was probably the best thing that ever happened to me.
Why were you kicked out?
Secret (laughing).

Taylor Lautner on Breaking Dawn Movie Two Film Split, Director Bill Condon, Renesmee, and 3-D Version

Breaking Dawn Taylor Lautner Renesmee Jacob Black 3-d Bill Condon
Taylor Lautner, who plays Jacob Black in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, gives his thoughts on the split of Breaking Dawn into two films in a new interview. Overall, he’s thrilled by the decision–
“I definitely think it was the right thing to do, for the movie and for the book, It’s hard enough to condense 500 pages into a script, but to condense 800 and everything that’s going on in ‘Breaking Dawn,’ it would have been impossible.”
Taylor also has a part of the new films he’s nervous about–but also really excited for–
“It’s the part I’m most looking forward to and the part I’m most nervous about: Renesmee, the baby,” he said, referring to the vampire baby spawned by Edward and Bella. Upon Renesmee’s birth, Jacob finds himself inexplicably drawn to the baby, effectively ending his feud with Edward over Bella’s heart. “That should be very interesting to film. But I’m looking forward to it! I’ve got the direction of Bill Condon, so I’ll be fine.”
Taylor Lautner also gives his view on new director Bill Condon and the idea that the last two films in the Twilight Saga could be shot in 3D:
“I met him briefly, very quickly, but not about ‘Breaking Dawn.’ He seems like a very nice guy,” the actor said. “Obviously, he’s ridiculously talented, so I’m excited that I’m getting to work with him twice.” “Usually, 3-D is best when it takes you into another world,” he explained. “I could see it going both ways. As long as we have the story line down and as long as we bring what was written on the pages in the book to life, then we’ll be fine no matter what we do.”
check out the video of Taylor Lautner’s interview from MTV.
