In the interview, Fanning discussed everything from how she celebrated her sixteenth birthday to how she learned Cherie Currie (her character in the film, a real-life person obviously)'s moves with the microphone.
Fanning also discussed the fact that she lent her real voice to the film's singing credentials, noting that this was not only her first time portraying a real character but also the first time she learned that she can sing for a role if needs be.
Fanning is featured on the official soundtrack for The Runaways for her song "Cherry Bomb," and she and co-star Kristen Stewart are featured jointly for their work on "Queens of Noise" and "Dead End Justice."
The Runaways debuts in theaters on March 19th.

Remember Me Round Up
There is so much new information about “Remember Me” coming out that we decided to do one big post covering some of the stories. First up is an interview that Planet 46 did with Rob Pattinson and the film makers about how Twilight has changed everything for him.
Director Allen Coulter said the following: “I knew when Rob was going to the bathroom accompanied by about 14 guards that we had real security issues. I mean, we expected something, but not what we got. Joe Reidy, a masterful assistant director who’s been with DiCaprio working with Scorsese and others, even he was staggered by the intensity of it. It was tough.”
There is also an interview with MTV where Rob gives the details on a scene that was cut from the final version of the film.
And finally Clevver TV has this video interview with Rob!

Official Eclipse Movie Website Site
The official Summit website for the next movie in the Twilight Saga, EclipseTheMovie.com, is live and up and running! For now, it only has the trailer and a download for the iPhone, but we’re happy to see it running as something other than a place holder! Over the next few months we hope to see more footage and images as they become available.
No plans for a second 'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse' trailer any time soon

However, now's reportedly not the time to get amped up about anything other than the first trailer.
According to Gossip Cop, there are no immediate plans to produce another trailer any time soon.
"Gossip Cop spoke with a rep for Summit Entertainment who told us there will (of course) be a new trailer at some point, but right now there’s 'no talk… nothing in the works,'" the site reports.
As you already knew, a new editor was brought onto the film just a few days ago, so it's entirely possible that it'll take a little bit of time for her to get acclimated to the new material.
Chances are, with at least this one trailer in hand, time will fly by until the second trailer is released
More 'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' DVD details revealed
'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' DVD - Summit Ent.
For starters, Chris Weitz (director) did an interview with FearNET recently where he talked about his process in adding commentary and conducting editorial trimming.
He revealed that commentary, to some, might just be an interruption of the film itself, but that he was sure that whoever would take the time to listen to it would be interested in his content. "Of course, they have the option of just turning us off, so I’d like to think that for the very few people who actually want to hear anything that I have to say about the movie, we’re there for them," he said of himself and editor Peter Lambert (who will be appearing on the commentary track with him).
He also talked about the fact that cutting was a bit difficult, at times, because we vehement fans would gladly sit through a three hour movie rather than see a moment cut from any given scene (other than, perhaps, "butt crack Santa").
"[I]t’s very difficult to talk about cutting any scene with Edward or Taylor because I know that the fans can’t imagine why you wouldn’t have a three-hour version of the movie. So I have to be very diplomatic and careful as to how I explain how a certain scene was cut a certain way in order for the flow of the story. To a lot of Twilight fans, less is never more," he acutely stated.
Very true.
In addition to Weitz's words, there is also a new clip of footage from the DVD's behind-the-scenes footage that MTV presented. It shows a bit of what filming for one of Taylor Lautner's scenes looked like.
Dakota Fanning was surprised she made it into 'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse' trailer

Still, hearing what the actors present in the trailer have to say is pretty interesting.
Kristen Stewart, yesterday, was quoted discussing the trailer saying that it looked "good," but at the time of her statement, Dakota Fanning still had not seen it.
Apparently, she has since because she did another interview with MTV where she talked about her feelings about the trailer.
According to that interview, Fanning was surprised to see herself make the cut for the minute and a half-long clip.
"I can't give it away, but I am in two scenes this time," Fanning admitted of her limited role in the movie. "I wasn't expecting [to see myself in the trailer]. But it's really great."
Robert Pattinson talks 'Remember Me' filming, 'Water for Elephants,' and 'Bel Ami'

Interestingly enough, Pattinson explained the process of dealing with the droves of individuals lined up around the set of filming for Remember Me, noting that after a while, you just kind of get used to ignoring it.
He then went on to compare the situation with that of his present project, Bel Ami. According to Pattinson, there are no tenacious fans surrounding the set in London.
There are, though he doesn't mention it in this interview, photographers who have been catching Pattinson in action on the set.
Which leads to another point that he made . . . not only does he know he has to bring to a film a good performance, but there is also this expectation that he'll bring the loot along with it. In other words, there is a pressure that he has upon him to bring with him his Twilight following, and that can be a little daunting.
That line of discussion then led to Pattinson addressing the issue of his involvement with the picture Water For Elephants. The film is set, he states, to go into production sometime this summer, but his decison to join the cast was not merely based on time slot availability.
Instead, he says that the picture offered something unique - the chance to work with an elephant.
Pattinson also had a fairly interesting interview with iVillage where he talked about whether Remember Me will draw in an older (or at least different) audience than the Twilight demographic. Of course, he then goes on to talk about some of the formulaic efforts involved in his becoming "Tyler Hawkins" for the project.
Twilight' star Jackson Rathbone joins 'Truckstop'

Cinematical reports that Rathbone is signed onto the film to portray "a man with cerebral palsy who works at a truck stop while caring for his dying father."
Cinematical also "hope[s] he's bending the ear of New Moon co-star Michael Sheen, since the actor was simply excellent as Art Honeyman (a man with cerebral palsy) in Music Within."
Another resource he might be able to use is Kristen Stewart, who portrayed a young woman with Friedreich’s ataxia in The Cake Eaters, not because the two diseases are the same by any means but because the portrayal of them both requires physical manuevering and sensitivity to those who suffer them.

Chris Interview
FearNet has an interview with Chris Weitz.
Read it all here.
Here is an excerpt:
FEARnet: Listening to the commentary during the scene where Edward makes his speech about Romero & Juliet in school, you said that you should probably shut up and just let Robert Pattinson talk. But what was your actual approach when you came in to produce the bonus materials on this DVD and Blu-ray, given the fact that although you were joking that might partially be true?
Chris Weitz: Well, it’s funny because it’s very difficult to talk about cutting any scene with Edward or Taylor because I know that the fans can’t imagine why you wouldn’t have a three-hour version of the movie. So I have to be very diplomatic and careful as to how I explain how a certain scene was cut a certain way in order for the flow of the story. To a lot of Twilight fans, less is never more. So it’s funny that when [editor] Peter Lambert I’m doing the commentary, it’s like a couple of old guys interrupting the viewing of the movie. But of course, they have the option of just turning us off, so I’d like to think that for the very few people who actually want to hear anything that I have to say about the movie, we’re there for them.
