EW: 'New Moon' Exclusive: Chris Weitz Reveals Five Secrets in the Film!

'New Moon' Exclusive: Chris Weitz Reveals Five Secrets in the Film!
Director spills the beans on a few things he hid in the film. Did you spot any of 'em?

1. Hidden wolves
''Look for an upside-down engraving of a wolf in the shot of the bowl in which Carlisle burns his first-aid equipment; on Jacob's T-shirt when he meets Bella in the school parking lot for the first time; and a wolf trinket on the dream-catcher that he gives her.''

2. Vampire elevator music
''When Edward, Bella, and Alice get into the elevator on their way to see the Volturi, the music playing in the elevator is from Strauss' Die Fledermaus (a.k.a. The Bat).''

3. Emotional baggage?
''When Bella is looking for the meadow where she and Edward are seen lying down together, she carries a golden compass clipped to her backpack — part of my baggage!''

4. Speedy suitor
''We did a little trick when Edward gets out of Bella's truck and they're arguing. We wanted to show Edward moving impossibly quickly, so we put Rob right next to the camera but out of sight, and used a double dressed like Rob in the driver's seat. When Edward gets out, it's the double, and then Rob steps in front of the camera, and it looks as if he got there faster than humanly possible.''

5. Look it up
''And last but not least: If you want to know what Jacob says before he almost kisses Bella, ask a Quileute! The address of the Quileute tribal council is quileutenation.org. I can tell you this much: He says, Kwop kilawtley.''

Lautner to work with Summit on new action film, Godfrey confirms two-part Breaking Dawn production in late 2010

Variety has published a new article revealing two interesting tidbits of information concerning Taylor Lautner, Breaking Dawn, and Summit.
First up, Summit has acquired a new script that they hope to have Taylor take the starring role in:
Summit has acquired an untitled script by Eric Champnella and Grant Thompson that is best described as a teenaged “Taken” meets “Die Hard.”
Dan Lautner will produce with Temple Hill partners Wyck Godfrey and Marty Bowen.
Dan Lautner is the actor’s father, and the action project becomes the first project in Tailor Made Entertainment, a company they’ve formed to develop film and TV vehicles.
After an injury sidelines a teen’s plans to be an elite soldier, he tries to get on with his life by heading to college. There he meets a girl who convinces him to join her friends on a spring-break trip to Cancun. When his traveling partners are kidnapped and ransomed for the freedom of a drug-cartel leader about to be extradited, the college student uses his warrior skills to rescue them.
Another interesting bit of info comes at the end of the article, where Twilight saga producer Wyck Godfrey confirms that Breaking Dawn will begin shooting in late 2010:
Godfrey said the hope is to get the Cancun-set project into production by June. Lautner will reprise his role of Jacob in “Breaking Dawn” beginning in late 2010, and it is likely that the final book will be divided into two films that will shoot back-to-back.

Below are 5 New Moon secrets from Chris Weitz that was exclusive to the Twilight Tracker iPhone & iPod Touch App.

Lautner's 'Moon' mileage

Summit Entertainment and producers Temple Hill are crafting an action vehicle for their "Twilight" star Taylor Lautner that shapes up as the first film after his breakthrough in "New Moon."
Summit has acquired an untitled script by Eric Champnella and Grant Thompson that is best described as a teenaged "Taken" meets "Die Hard."
Dan Lautner will produce with Temple Hill partners Wyck Godfrey and Marty Bowen.
Dan Lautner is the actor's father, and the action project becomes the first project in Tailor Made Entertainment, a company they've formed to develop film and TV vehicles.
After an injury sidelines a teen's plans to be an elite soldier, he tries to get on with his life by heading to college. There he meets a girl who convinces him to join her friends on a spring-break trip to Cancun. When his traveling partners are kidnapped and ransomed for the freedom of a drug-cartel leader about to be extradited, the college student uses his warrior skills to rescue them.
Godfrey said the project grew out of Lautner's enthusiasm for "Taken" -- which he saw during the filming of "New Moon" -- and his desire to do a movie in the genre. The Champnella/Thompson script offered the
opportunity for the former karate champ to use the brawn and physical skills he displayed during his recent hosting stint on "Saturday Night Live."
We wanted to continue working with Taylor and feel he's got the chops to become a big action star," Godfrey said.
Lautner recently became attached to "Max Steel" at Paramount.
Godfrey said the hope is to get the Cancun-set project into production by June. Lautner will reprise his role of Jacob in "Breaking Dawn" beginning in late 2010, and it is likely that the final book will be divided into two films that will shoot back-to-back.
