New Moon News

Lindsay from Radar Online sent us a report of the Vancouver wrap of New Moon and a new Rob pic. See it here!
The first New Moon poster will be revealed tomorrow. According to Larry Carroll from MTV:
I’ve just gotten word that the first poster for “New Moon” will be released tomorrow. Not some Photoshopped version your friend made on her computer, not some old “Twilight” poster with the words “New Moon” taped over the title – but the real deal!
Of course, if the whole “newspaper” concept is giving you a headache – or if you’re a shut in – there’s no need to fear. The “New Moon” poster will be online at 7am EST on finer websites everywhere, including ours.
But before the big floating heads hit, what do you want to see in the poster? Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner staring into each others’ eyes with an angry Robert Pattinson in the background? A nice shot of the whole Cullen family, hovering nervously over a bloody birthday celebration? Or perhaps a first peek at the Volturi? Say it with me: Ooooh…Ahhhhh.
According to E!Online, New Moon Debut Will Rise At MTV Movie Awards 2009. Thank you Mark Malkin for the confirmation!

I can exclusively reveal that footage from the Twilight sequel will be shown for the first time during the upcoming MTV Movie Awards.
And that’s not all, it gets better…Awards-show producer Mark Burnett says Pattz, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Launter will hit the stage together to present the clip.

Here’s an interesting read from The Deadbolt: Native American Twilight Lore and New Moon Quiluete Legends
There’s no doubt that the Twilight Saga has generated an incredible, even phenomenal, amount of interest among fans, but it has also cast a huge spotlight on Native American culture and the origins of the Quileute legends. Unlike so many characters that are as fictional as the storylines surrounding them, Native American lore, whether from the Quileute tribe or others, is still being passed down through new generations while still being recorded by anthropologists and historians eager to preserve the various versions of similar stories.

MTV reports that Justin Guarini is still hoping to be in the New Moon Soundtrack:
Believe it or not, Guarini insists that he’s not just trying to bank on the success of the franchise. He says it’s because he’s a big “Twilight” fan. “I’m a fan of the books,” Guarini told MTV News. “At the time I went in to write this song, the two other writers were talking about the books, and we got into a conversation about it. As we were writing it, we thought, there’s a new movie coming out, and so why not give it a shot? And so, we sent it in.”
Twi-stars give up the New scoop from OnTheRedCarpet:
Peter Facinelli (Dr. Carlyle Cullen) says there will be a lot of eye candy for the female viewers to sink their teeth into this time around.

CB: Demetri is a Jesus amongst guards…
He has unparalleled tracking abilities together with insane strength, speed and classiness; lives in Tuscany, underground; hangs out with the beautiful Heidi who brings him food all the time; he has red irises and glitters in the sunlight… It’s hard, therefore, to see what’s not to like about playing this legend….

‘Twilight’ Star Robert Pattinson Sighted In The Vicinity Of Director Peter Berg, from MTV:
That said, Perez Hilton reported that the actor was spotted leaving the Los Angeles home of director Peter Berg yesterday while on a break from the ongoing “New Moon” shoot. Berg and Pattinson may very well just be friends, but this fanboy is hoping that the two met to discuss the actor’s possible involvement in Berg’s upcoming “Dune” remake.
Fan’s Tattoo of Robert Pattinson’s signature a little too far, from Twilight Examiner:

A fan by the name of Stephanie posted this photograph on her Twitter account. It is of her wrist, tattooed with the signature of Robert Pattinson. While it is not unheard of, or completely extraordinary to have signatures or insignia tattooed on one’s body (I’ve seen the likes of Jimi Hendrix and John Lennon autographed into the skin of die-hard fans, and even the Earth symbol from Dan Brown’s book Angels & Demons etched into someone’s arm), but is this taking fandom of Pattinson too far, or is the decision completely ordinary?
And for those who missed out on How To Be’s premiere in Singapore last month, enjoy this movie clip below:
Thanks to NetworkReleasing!

Nikki Reed headed to Italy? Yes, that’s absolutely right. She tells MTV this:
“Put it this way: I am not in any of the scenes in Italy, but we’ve already made sure that I am going to Italy while they shoot that,because I am sort of obsessed with that portion of the book…”
Lainey shares with us pictures of Vampires in the City:

Twilight Lexicon has put up an entry regarding rumors surrrounding New Moon. For those of you who are still confuse about all the rumours and need a confirmation on which one is true or false, head over here.
*GASPS* Woman finds ‘Twilight’ sequel script in trash, from The Associated Press:
A St. Louis beauty salon owner accidentally happened upon one of the hottest Hollywood scripts — the pages from an upcoming “Twilight” sequel — in a trash bin.
Casey Ray found two scripts, one for the vampire sequel “New Moon” and one for a different movie titled “Memoirs.” She decided to return them to the studio making the films. In return, she was invited to attend the movies’ premieres, her lawyer said.
Ray recently was waiting for her fiance to finish work when she spotted two scripts in a trash container. She was outside a hotel where actors were staying during a St. Louis shoot for the upcoming George Clooney movie, “Up in the Air.”
It’s not clear how the scripts wound up in the bin.
The Deadbolt has an analysis of How Will Robert Pattinson Be A Powerful Twilight Presence In New Moon? *Beware of SPOILERS*
As filming wraps up in Vancouver for the upcoming Twilight sequel New Moon, Twilight stars Robert Pattison, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, Nikki Reed, Peter Facinelli and the other Twilight Saga actors will soon be looking ahead to their time in Italy where the New Moon production comes to a close. After the first Twilight film, based on the popular Stephenie Meyer series of novels, New Moon opens up the characters even more as they evolve into more diverse and emotionally concrete figures in the Twilight Saga. How each handles their characters for a second time, namely Robert Pattinson, is a powerful question surrounding the anticipation for New Moon.

Recently, the New Moon/Eclipse cast including David Slade & Stephenie Meyer gathered at a Vancouver restaurant for the New Moon Wrap Party and Eclipse Kick-Off Party. Vancity Allie was there to cover the event. Lots of great pictures too, check out her blog entry!
Allie’s friend, Amy, with Stephenie Meyer
There was an all-cast New Moon Wrap Party and Eclipse Kick-Off Party happening at Blue Water. All the cast members were partying in a private room at the restaurant. David Slade was there to kick things off, Stephenie Meyer also, as well as Rachelle Lefevre (Victoria), Rob Pattinson (Edward), Kristen Stewart (Bella), Taylor Lautner (Jacob), Ashley Greene (Alice), Michael Sheen (Aro), Jamie Bower (Caius), Charlie Bewley (Demetri), Dakota Fanning (Jane), Cameron Bright (Alec) and I’m pretty sure I saw Melissa Rosenberg (screenwriter) there.
I saw a couple cast members holding thick manuscripts, including Rob, so I’m PRETTY sure they were possibly giving out Eclipse scripts (with David Slade, Stephenie and Melissa doesn’t it seem possible?). How cool is that?
A Twitter update from Michael Sheen:

OMG!!!! They just did a photoshoot for The Volturi! Thank you Michael Sheen for the update

Finally got to spend some time with our new director for Eclipse, David Slade. And I gotta say, he’s great. Very smart, funny, creative. I already knew he was a really talented and visual filmmaker, but now I know he’s terrific to work with as well. Collaborative and, most important (from a writer’s point of view) smart about story, character and emotional arcs. He gets it. And he’s going to make Eclipse into a fantastic movie. So relax Eclipse fans! We’re in good hands.

Took a little trip to the set of Bella Swan’s house located in South Surrey, BC Canada just outside of Vancouver. Her truck, the bikes, and the police car were all there a couple of days before, but gone now. The security on hand actually let us go take pictures on the doorstep! This was a first as usually they won’t let anyone even near the place. Lots of fun! Wicked experience. If only they were filming!

Paramore talks to EW, Twilight is included in their agenda:
EW: Oh, really? I thought from what I’ve read that [Twilight author] Stephanie Meyer sought you guys out and wanted you specifically to be on the soundtrack. But it’s more like you auditioned?
HW: Well I read the books, and when they were working on the soundtrack, I was finishing up the third book, Eclipse, and I was really into it. I thought this was a great art, a really good story, and really relatable, but I’m always into vampires and all that. So we were touring and writing and jamming out new things every day, and I was like, if they’re putting that soundtrack together this could be great, let’s figure out if we could be a part of it. So yeah, we kinda fought for it. And if you look at the rest of the album, it’s Muse and Iron and Wine and Linkin Park, which really isn’t our demographic.

She was so sweet and agreed to pose for a picture with us and her mom even took the shot.

This is a funny interview, you should read it!

Do you have any plans to release an album? Look at the Disney kids…
Rob: No, I hate that. I won’t consider it until I quit acting. I’ve only played in pubs. I had never recorded anything or made money with music. Maybe just 60 euros for playing here and there. I don’t want to become a franchise like the Disney kids.Some people say you’re too pretty to play Bella.
Kristen: In the movie I’m an average girl. What you said was not very nice, actually.This happens with literary characters.
Kristen: I know. But beauty is subjective. If you go online and google “the ugliest girl in the world” you’ll get my picture. Believe, it’s everywhere. A lot of people think I’m hideous.
Cullen Boys Anonymous shares with us an interesting fan encouter story with Kellan, Michael and Edi.

I was next! he gave me the biggest hug!! another bear hug, took me off the ground hug! I didn’t let go, I wanted a picture also, but like I said I didn’t let go forgetting the camera was in my hand the whole time. But then we let go, I handed Ade the camera, and she snapped one and then he smiled thanking us for being there and left. They were being rushed by some people, the twilighters were waiting to see them! Can we get any luckier? They are the best!

No matter which clothes you choose to wear, how you decide to style your hair or what kinds of activities you participate in, there are often things about you that give you away to others.

During the Ghosts of Girlfriends Past premiere on April 27th, I got a chance to talk to Michael Copon on the red carpet. You may remember him — he’s the guy who was rumored to replace Taylor Lautner as Jacob Black in the Twilight sequel New Moon.
I asked him if that was real or rumor, and he told me it was 100% true. It was a tense back-and-forth during casting, but we all know who got the role in the end. Copon told me he really, really wanted to get the role, but that he is happy for Lautner: “There are no hard feelings between Taylor and me — we are friends.”
