Mania Exclusive: Kellan Lutz, vampire bro of TWILIGHT
10 Dec 2008 | Comments (0) |
Mania
By: Leslie Morgan
"Good to see you you’re not as pale as you were" I jokingly say to Kellan Lutz who plays Emmet Cullen in the new movie 'Twilight', based on the novel by Stephanie Meyer.
Lutz’s character is a vampire and part of a family of vampires that live in Washington. My joke referred to the fact that in the film Lutz is incredibly pale and that contractually anyone playing vampires in the movie had to stay out of the sun as much as possible.
"Well I actually just get back from New York so I’m like where’s the tan?" Lutz is someone who seems to like the outdoors and being active so was it a challenge to not go out in the sun?
"I'm from the Midwest so I love the cold and I don't care to go to the beach that much so it was really nice to be in the woods. I had never even heard of a tanning booth till I got to the west coast."

'Twilight' sequel: New details on 'New Moon'
10 Dec 2008 | Comments (0) |
EW.com
by Nicole Sperling
Summit Entertainment has tentatively slated Nov. 20, 2009, as the release date for New Moon, the Twilight sequel, which means any director who signs on to replace Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke has to be in Vancouver by Dec. 15 to begin 12 weeks of preproduction before a mid-March start date. Reports have speculated that Hardwicke was fired for being difficult on set, but sources close to her suggest Summit's aggressive production schedule turned her off. "She'd love to do the sequel if she could do it better than Twilight,” says one. “It became clear that Summit didn’t have those same priorities."

Is ‘Golden Compass’ Director Chris Weitz Being Handed the Keys to ‘Twilight’?
10 Dec 2008 | Comments (0) |

by Larry Carroll
Ever since the news broke that “Twilight” director Catherine Hardwicke wasn’t going to return for “New Moon” and the other sequels, the hit movie’s rabid fanbase has been frantically tossing out names to replace her. Just yesterday, we examined a few possible candidates, including some very real possibilities and others who are more hopeful longshots.
Now, Deadline Hollywood Daily is reporting that “About a Boy” filmmaker Chris Weitz has been offered the keys to the franchise. The 39-year-old filmmaker got his big break producing all those “American Pie” movies, and is perhaps best respected for his 2002 Hugh Grant flick “About a Boy.”
The move is fascinating if true for many reasons, the main one being that Weitz’s last film was perceived by many as dropping the ball on a potential franchise. The writer/director’s problems with what would become “The Golden Compass” have been well-documented, and his Nicole Kidman/Daniel Craig flick has gone down in history as one of 2007’s biggest disappointments, if not the film that killed New Line Cinema.
Nevertheless, Weitz may soon get a second chance, this time with Edward, Bella and the Cullens at his beck and call. He might also get a third chance, as word is emerging that the series’ new director might make “New Moon” and “Eclipse” back-to-back, as we first reported all those many months ago.

FanBolt: Peter Facinelli of Twilight

FanBolt

We had the honor of chatting with Peter Facinelli about his role in Twilight. Here's what he had to say:
You played a character that was 350 years old, did that affect how you approached the character at all? Or did you even think about that?
Peter: That was my main concern. I related to him being a patriarch, because I have kids of my own. I got who he was as person through the books. My challenge was how do I bring 350 years plus onto the screen, so I did a lot of history research. I wanted to learn about the period he grew up in, and go through each decade where he might be and where his travels took him... to Italy, Chicago and all of those places in those times. I thought just having that knowledge might help. I felt that the way he moved and talked should reflect someone from a different period, so those were the things that I worked on.

'Twilight' Star Kellan Lutz Looks Forward To Emmett's 'New Moon' One-Liners
09 Dec 2008 | Comments (0) |
MTV.com
by Larry Carroll, with reporting by Elena Torres
 Lutz is thankful for his castmates, who are all rising to fame together: 'We really are quite a family.'
He's a star of movies, television and music videos. He elicits shrieks of joy and gift baskets everywhere he goes. With "Twilight" still holding strong at the box office, it sometimes feels like this is Kellan Lutz's world — and we're all just living in it.
This past weekend, we caught up with the 23-year-old heartthrob as he prepared to rock out at the KIIS-FM Jingle Ball. And although it was just hours before he would learn that his director won't be returning for "New Moon," he assured us that the best days for the Cullen clan have yet to come.

Pattison has choices after "Twilight"
09 Dec 2008 | Comments (0) |
Reuters
By Borys Kit
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Thanks to "Twilight," Kristen Stewart and Rob Pattinson are bona fide stars. They cause riots at malls, they need security guards, and Pattinson even gets asked to suck necks.
And now, with the movie making more than $138 million (93 million pounds) in 17 days, they are entering a new phase of their careers. The two actors find themselves in an enviable position as the leads in a gold-plated franchise, and the offers began coming in almost a month before the movie opened.
Both already have their next movies in the can: Stewart stars with Jesse Eisenberg and Ryan Reynolds in "Adventureland," Gregg Mottola's follow-up to "Superbad," which is due March 27. Pattinson is playing surrealist artist Salvador Dali in Paul Morrison's "Little Ashes."
The big question is where they go from there.

Why 'Twilight's' director got the boot
08 Dec 2008 | Comments (0) |
LA Times
by Patrick Goldstein
 There's no way to put a pretty frame around this picture. After Catherine Hardwicke delivered an immensely lucrative franchise starter with "Twilight," a film that will put Summit Entertainment on the map, wiping away all the company's other losses and missteps, she was rewarded by being pushed aside, with Summit making it clear over the weekend that it's beginning work on a "Twilight" sequel without her. There is an enormously complicated back story to the events, but what really happened here was another example of the age-old collision between art and commerce.
Director of such indie-style films as "Thirteen" and "Lords of Dogtown," Hardwicke is an incredibly gifted filmmaker who gave "Twilight" an emotional intensity that helped the movie capture the heart-racing intoxication of Stephenie Meyer's novel, making the film a must-see for teenagers everywhere. (It's now grossed nearly $140 million in 18 days of release.) But Hardwicke is also a notoriously difficult, high-maintenance filmmaker who wears her emotions on her sleeve. This emotional intensity cuts both ways--it brought something special to the movie, but it made life a vertiginous roller-coaster for many people working on the film, from crew to executives.
