Cast News – Edi Gathegi in X-Men & Bryce Dallas Howard intvs Xavier Samuel
Interview Magazine had Bryce Dallas Howard interviewing Xavier Samuel.
BRYCE DALLAS HOWARD: So now that you’re almost on the other side with Eclipse, how has everything been for you? It’s all been a little wild, right?
XAVIER SAMUEL: Yeah, it has. It’s kind of like being struck by lightning in a way, because it all seems so improbable.
HOWARD: Eclipse is your first American film.
SAMUEL: It is. I’ve been doing American auditions for a while, and it always felt sort of like sending these audition tapes off into the ether. So just hearing anything back from anyone was kind of startling.
HOWARD: When we were shooting Eclipse, it was amazing for me to see how the girls all went berserk over you. These girls were totally losing their minds—and much like everyone else in the cast who experiences those sorts of things, you dealt with it really graciously and wonderfully. Were you at all startled by that?
SAMUEL: I mean, it’s kind of bizarre, isn’t it? Having that kind of attention. I’m not under the microscope in the same fashion that a lot of the other cast members are, so I think I can slide under the radar a little bit more, but getting any attention at all is completely new for me.
HOWARD: Well, it’s been interesting to see how these young women have responded to you and your hair and your accent.
SAMUEL: My hair and my accent are sort of my main assets.
HOWARD: So many great actors come from Australia—I just had the great pleasure of working with one recently who you’ve worked with, Mia Wasikowska. Do you find that Australian actors are sort of like a little tribe?
SAMUEL: Yes. We hold these secret meetings, like a cult.
HOWARD: Where you talk about how you’re going to take over Hollywood? I wouldn’t be surprised—that’s exactly what’s happening.
SAMUEL: I don’t know that many Australian actors in Los Angeles, but there are a few of us. I mean, we kind of get together occasionally, but I wouldn’t say it’s an alliance or anything like that.
HOWARD: I’ve found, just from working with Australians like you and Mia and Sam Worthington—actually Gus Van Sant, who directed the film [Restless] I worked on with Mia, also noticed this with Nicole Kidman—that you guys have such a sturdiness. I don’t know if it’s just the terrain in Australia or the kind of training you do or the way acting is taught over there, but there’s a sturdiness that we as Americans could definitely learn something from. There’s also a sense of gratitude.
SAMUEL: Well, I think it’s the training coupled with the fact that the films that get made are so few and far between. In Australia, getting an audition can be a rarity. There just aren’t as many opportunities. So I guess the mentality is that you kind of give your all whenever you get a chance to work. When you put that in the American context, where you’re getting a substantial number of auditions a week by comparison, I guess your strike rate is a bit better, in a way. I mean, being in a film like Eclipse is such a great opportunity—and there’s a massive fan base with these Twilight movies that you need to respect. So I don’t think I could sleep at night if I didn’t give it my best shot.

Deadline.com has this great news about Edi Gathegi!
EXCLUSIVE: Edi Gathegi, who played a chillingly evil vampire in Twilight and Twilight Saga: New Moon, is joining X-Men: First Class in the role of Darwin. That character, the first bi-racial mutant (in the comic series), has the power of “reactive evolution,” which allows him to adapt to any situation or environment. Plunged underwater, he’ll grow gills, he’ll gain night vision in pitch black and his skin grows fire retardant when burned.
X-MEN: FIRST CLASS is a prequel to the X-Men Series -
Before Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr took the names Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time. Before they were archenemies, they were closest of friends, working together, with other Mutants (some familiar, some new), to stop the greatest threat the world has ever known. In the process, a rift between them opened, which began the eternal war between Magneto’s Brotherhood and Professor X’s X-MEN.
(From IMDB Written by Twentieth Century Fox)
Edi is 31!
Edi Gathegi has just recently turned 31 on Wednesday! Twilight Singapore wishes him ‘Happy 31st!’

This is new – SNL Parody with Taylor Swift. LOL!
If you can’t watch the embedded video above, try this one:
Twilight fansites interviewed Alex Meraz and Edi Gathegi. You can read the full interview at Twilight Lexicon. Here’s an extract:
Q: I wanted to know, now Edi you play someone that’s actually a bad guy, and then Alex you’re playing someone who’s kind of misunderstood but comes across as mean, and I was wondering where you guys draw that energy from to come across that way on film?
Edi: Well if Alex’s character is misunderstood, then I want my character to be misunderstood. [Laughs] My character is a vampire, and they eat people, and he wants to eat Bella, and that doesn’t make him a bad guy.
[Alex laughs.]
Edi: He’s just, he’s just doing what nature intended him to do, and it’s actually … he’s not apologetic but he’s explaining, you know, why he must do what he has to do. And I think that’s interpreted as being the evil and bad because the heroes of our stories are vegetarians.
Alex: Which is funny because here’s two characters that both try to kill Bella, so that’s pretty good.
Edi: Yeah, your character tries to go after her …
Alex: … but my character, I think he has a sense of pride, you know? For his culture, for the land … and he just does whatever it takes to protect the land, and when Bella – at first, when I turn to try to kill her – she’s just an outsider. I don’t think she belongs there, and she’s bringing nothing but trouble so it’s just a thick sense of pride that’s really what Paul feels.
New Moon News
There was a New Moon Pre-Screening Press Conference last night while we’re sleeping here in Singapore and everyone who watched the movie loved what they saw! Twilight Lexicon has always been so kind and they have compiled the list of Twitters regarding the New Moon Pre-Screening Press Conference.
Getting ready for the press conference to begin (Woots!):
Thanks to Celebuzz!
New Moon cast (Edi Gathegi, Christian Serratos, Chaske Spencer, Bronson Pelletier, , Kiowa Gordan & Alex Meraz) attended The Twilight Saga: New Moon Cast Tour at Nordstrom – Nov 5, Canoga Park, California:
More photos available at Celebuzz.
*Spoilers beware* People.com tells us the TOP 5 Best Things About New Moon:
- Jacob’s Black Body: Photos of Taylor Lautner‘s amazing transformation from a scrawny kid to a rippling teen werewolf already have been making the rounds for months. But the first time Lautner rips off his T-shirt to reveal his muscled chest onscreen, the sight is still gasp-worthy. In fact, Lautner sizzles and smolders throughout New Moon as he walks the line between friendship and romance with Bella (Kristen Stewart). Though Bella’s heart belongs to Edward (Robert Pattinson), Launter may steal Pattinson’s heartthrob status right out from under his pale nose.
- Bella & Edward’s Reunion: When Edward comes to the (incorrect) conclusion that his love, Bella, is dead, he decides there is no choice but to commit vampire suicide. Of course, the only person who can save him is Bella. When she launches herself through a crowd and across a fountain in an Italian square to push Edward out of harm’s way, the sparks that fly between the soul-mates are like fireworks.
- The Wolf Pack: The actors who play Jacob Black’s gang of strapping pals provide the perfect mix of teen tension and ferocious loyalty that exist between the group of guys who realize that one and all are actually werewolves. They snarl and yelp, tease and torment each other, and of course, fight together just like Twilight Saga author Stephanie Meyer describes in her series.
- Dakota Fanning: She plays the pint-sized vamp, Jane, who wields a daunting power – simply by concentrating she can cause her victims to convulse in excruciating pain. She’s not in the movie for very long, but when she focuses those red eyes on her targets and softly whispers, “Pain,” everyone will squirm.
- The Sense of Humour: While the Twilight series is based overwrought teenage angst, director Chris Weitz lightens the mood with some well-placed humor. Bella’s human school friends provide comic relief. When one of them has to leave a horror movie because he’s ill, Launter’s character laughs and says, “What a marshmallow.” And when a member of the wolf pack accidentally changes from human to werewolf right in front of Bella, another member quips, “Well, I guess the wolf is out of the bag.”

MTV Movies Blog had an interview with Taylor Lautner at the VMA’s about his workout and Rob. Taylor Lautner: Robert Patinson Doesn’t Need Workout Advice
But Lautner isn’t the only one Twilighters got an eyeful of in the trailer — Robert Pattinson also appears sans shirt. And Lautner insists that if the two were to compete in some kind of shirt-off, the competition would be stiff. “I don’t know [who would win]. Rob, he’s getting some muscle,” he explained. “There’s some good competition.”
MTV also did another article with Anna Kendrick about her level of fame. ‘Twilight’ Actress Anna Kendrick Is Fine Without RPattz-Level Fame
“The thing about playing one of the human characters, the non-supernatural characters in the ‘Twilight’ series, is we have a lot more liberty to make it our own and change things, because people don’t have that attachment that they do to the myth, the world that Stephenie Meyer created in terms of the supernatural aspect,” the actress explained.
Here’s another interview with Anna by HitFix. Q&A: Anna Kendrick talks ‘New Moon’, ‘Scott Pilgrim’ and her breakthrough in ‘Up in the Air’
Q: Do you know if you’ll be back for ‘Breaking Dawn’ if and when those movies happen?
It does feel like to us — when I say ‘us’ I assume people know I’m referring to the human characters — it feels like it’s probably coming to a close. We appear in a dream sequence or one sequence in the book of of ‘Breaking Dawn’ so I don’t know if we’ll be back for it and we’re only signed up for three, because the three books were only out when we made the first film. So, I don’t know that we will be involved in ‘Breaking Dawn,’ but it’s a really fun thing to go back to. Particularly when I go back for this short period of time it feels like I’m going back to summer camp and I’m seeing my friends from summer camp.
Radar Online had a meeting with Edi Gathegi where he actually tried to scare the author, Stephenie Meyer! EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Twilight Actor Edi Gathegi Scared Stephenie Meyer
Radar: How scary is your scene?
Gathegi: Let’s just put it this way. I told Stephenie Meyer that my goal would be to scare every 14 year-old girl, and she looked at me and said “Edi, you’re so sweet and you have such a little baby face, no one is going to be scared of you at all.” Then she saw the movie and the dailies said, “OK Edi, you scared me!” And I said “That means a lot coming from you,” especially since she told me I wasn’t even going to be able to BE scary!
The Twilight Examiner has had an interview with ‘How To Be’ director, Oliver Irving. Exclusive Interview – How to Be Director gives insight into Robert Pattinson and his character
Were you familiar with Rob, or had you heard of him before he was cast?
No – he told me he was in a Harry Potter movie but made it seem like a small part. After the first audition I was sure he could be good, so checked him out online and realized he had a huge fan base already. Another call back or two to doubly make sure we had our man, and we were set.

The Indian Country Today has a great interview with Kiowa Gordon who plays a member of the wolf pack in The Twilight Saga : New Moon. Read the complete article here.
Within a couple of weeks word came he landed the part of Embry Call. “My mom got an e-mail. She was ecstatic.” After speaking to the director on the phone, he was off to Los Angeles for a “cyberscan.” It’s a technique used in many movies to create real-life animation. “A machine went around my body to create a computer image so I could be transformed into a werewolf.”
“When I went to Vancouver, the first person I met was Alex Meraz. During the first three weeks I hung out with the wolf pack. We worked with a personal trainer. I gained five pounds. We all bonded and became like brothers,” Gordon said. “I’m the smallest (physically) but I’m the tallest.” Gordon is 5 feet 11 inches tall.
Peter Facinelli did a quick interview with The Sunday Post. He revealed a particular scene in New Moon that he hopes wouldn’t end up on the cutting room floor.
Are there any scenes from the books that you hope make it into the films?
For “New Moon,” there’s a scene with Bella (Kristin Stewart) where I stitch her up. I was excited to shoot that scene because it was a pivotal scene. It kind of sets up the whole reason why Rob’s character doesn’t want to change her into a vampire. I hope it stays in the movie because I feel like it’s essential and it’s a really nice scene for Carlisle and Bella; it’s an intimate thing. It’s a scene where a lot of information is being given and it shows another side of Carlisle, a soft side of him that I like. I’d be bummed if that was out.
Will we see Breaking Dawn SOON AFTER Eclipse? There has not been a confirmation from Summit Entertainment but there are rumors circling in the net about its possibility, fueled by an interview with Ashley Greene. Stay tuned!
Nadya Viasoff at Deadbolt.com reports:
One could say that executives at Summit Entertainment are obviously seeing the impending implosion of the vampire craze given the breakneck speed at which the Twilight Saga sequels are being produced. Breaking Dawn will focus on Bella and Jacob’s perspectives following Eclipse, which is slated to wrap filming on October 31 before Breaking Dawn gets underway soon after.
But here’s the funny part of the latest Twilight, Breaking Dawn news that happens on each Twilight film like clockwork:
Robert Pattinson has already signed on for Breaking Dawn but it appears that Kristen Stewart is only “rumoured” to be attached to the fourth Twilight Saga movie.
Eonline.com reports exclusively, Twilight cast reveals Breaking Dawn details.
“We’re going to start right after Eclipse,” says Ash.

You may get the general vibe that there’s something about this guy that sets girls’ hearts racing (and some of their embarrassed moms, too; truth be told), but you may be dumbfounded why even the smartest girls you know–those who might rather die than be called a ‘fangirl’–also seem to love this British actor so very, very much.

Metro News has the third out of 5 parts coverage on New Moon. This time, they interviewed the new director. Chris Weitz takes the Twilight helm with New Moon
Q. Could you tell us about New Moon and how it’s different from Twilight?
A. I think we get an opportunity to sort of expand our scope — from the confines of the forest to Italy. Your sense of mythology of this world is deepened so that the story that underlies what was going on in the first movie becomes more and more clear. And there are a lot of secrets that were set up in the first book and the first movie that come to light in the second movie. So there are a lot of surprises in store.
About.com has got interviews with Michael Welch, Kellan Lutz and Peter Facinelli at the Red Carpet for the 2009 MTV Movie Awards. All of them were interviewed about the filming of New Moon. COOL~~

Twilightactors.com has had an exclusive interview with Edi Gathegi from Florida SuperCon Convention.
In the movie, do you have a death scene?
Well in the books, there’s no death scene. Jacob just talks about it and was like that blood sucker was easy to kill, which isn’t true. It’s just a 16 year boy who’s cocky. Yeah, it took you 5 werewolves to kill 1 vampire! So come on, how easy could have it been? Because Laurent is awesome! But what I was really hoping for was to go out with a bang. I kept saying to everybody, I’m going to ho out with a bang and be punching werewolves and running through forests, so I wasn’t disappointed when I got the script, but I don’t want to give too much anyway.
Read the rest on the interview from twilightactors.com!

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.

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.

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.

Later, as the Twilighters chanted down the minutes to midnight as if it were New Year’s Eve, Ashley appeared. They went nuts. She ducked inside the Hot Topic, jumped behind the counter, and started greeting the fans as they picked up their DVD. There were lots of hugs, shrieks, and tears of joy – but enough about me.
ET Online has a video on Ashley Greene surprising the fans at the Twilight DVD release party.
Edi Gathegi attended a DVD release party at Penn Plaza, NYC. Check out the video below:
Twilight Lexicon has a report on meeting Edi too. Twist Magazine shares a brief report (+ video attached) too on Edi at the release party. Check it out here.
In addition, Twilight Lexicon also shares with us a video of Rachelle Lefevre at a DVD release party. There’s also a report by Nena Cullen from Twilight Lexicon.
After a Salt Lake City radio station announced that a Twilight star was going to be at Wallmart the entire town pretty much abandoned where they were going to get their DVD’s and they headed over to Wallmart. Our Salt Lake City team was prescheduled to lead the fun and games at a Borders across town. So they lead the games, got their DVD’s at Borders and then headed across town to Wallmart where they met Rachelle where Rachelle gave the Lex a shout out and Nena cullen who shot the vid got a surprise hug.
Leah, a twilighter, sent in her footage of Catherine Hardwicke at a releaser party in Dallas to Twilight Lexicon.

Twilight News
Louisa Thomas from Newsweek has a review in which she thinks that the TWILIGHT movie is better than the book. Read it here.
Chuck The Movie Guy has a review of the Twilight DVD (Blu-Ray):
EOnline has an article – Kellan Lutz: How Robert Pattinson Gets The Girls. Kellan Lutz called into Ryan Seacrest’s radio show to promote the Twilight DVD.
“Rob is the lead, but you’re the better-looking Cullen,” Ryan bravely admitted to Kellan, at the risk of infuriating millions of Robert Pattinson loyalists.
“Ooh, I need to hang out with people like you more often!” exclaimed Kellan, who then (wisely!) proceeded to share some kind words about his celluloid sibling…
The Vancouver Sun has an article about Rachelle on playing Victoria for Twilight and New Moon, again.
I wanted Victoria to be playful and powerful, but not a sociopath. There’s no pathology to her evil. I think she’s just an example of what happens when you have absolute power: It corrupts absolutely,” she says.
Victoria’s role gets a little heftier in New Moon as she seeks to avenge Bella Swan for the death of her lover, James, but Lefevre says it’s not about the cumulative screen time. She just feels lucky to be a part of such a great project.
Edi Gathegi is in New York, promoting the Twilight DVD. Watch the video of Edi on Good Day New York here.
According to Variety, Catherine Hardwicke will be directing ‘Stay’. More details here.
Lastly, Creation Entertainment has uploaded several videos of the Twilight Convention in San Francisco earlier last month. Here’s a video where Jackson do the happy dance

Kristen also explains her cliff diving scene to MTV:
“I had to go in and do a head-scan the other day,” Kristen Stewart revealed to MTV News over the weekend, discussing a recent Vancouver appointment to create a computer-generated doppelgänger for a key “New Moon” scene.
She’s not cliff diving really. It’s a CGI Bella.
Over at IGN, Kristen tells us more about New Moon’s new look.
Fresno Bee has an article about Rachelle Lefevre and New Moon. Read it here.
Meanwhile, Edi Gathegi talks New Moon with MTV. Get the full story here.
“I’ve read the script — it’s very good,” Gathegi explained, praising the talents of returning screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg. Comparing the script to Stephenie Meyer’s 563-page novel, he said, “It’s a lot more active — in the best possible way — than I thought it was going to be.”
Woots! Rob & Kristen on set!

Starpulse did an interview with Kristen. She talks more about the Twilight DVD and Chris Weitz directing New Moon. Click here for more.
“I love outtakes,” Stewart said. “I love when the fantasy is broken down and revealed to everyone. I think it’s funny. Literally, there wasn’t a day that went by that we didn’t have camera crews on set so I’m sure that they have hours of footage to cut together for the eager audience.”
The sequel, New Moon begins shooting later this month, with Chris Weitz taking over directing. “Chris is like the most genuinely vested. He didn’t just like jump on the bandwagon like, ‘Ooh, let’s get the next big successful movie. I want to do Twilight too.’ He really likes it and is entirely involved. He’s a really sweet guy and we’re all really excited to work with him. I really like his work as well so it all just works out.”
Nikki Reed explains that she won’t be dying her hair for New Moon. Full story here.
But what will this mean for the fans? Reed said the die-hards might notice some of the changes — like her plan to wear a wig this time rather than dye her hair again. “My hair fell out,” she winced. “It took 36 hours initially to make me blond, and every other day, I was bleaching my head and my skin. This time around, we are testing out different wigs and stuff.”

“I’m getting a little nervous,” Lautner admitted. “But I’m so thankful for the fans and even those Robert Pattinson/Edward fans. I know we wouldn’t…be here filming New Moon and [then] filming Eclipse if it wasn’t for them.”
But he had a message to Team Robert: “Don’t hate on me too much. I love you, guys.” Source.
“In New Moon, Jacob and Bella’s [Stewart's character] relationship goes to the next level…he’s always pushing it along and taking it to the next level,” Lautner said.
However he wouldn’t say whether or not he and Stewart were going to share an onscreen smooch in New Moon. “I”m not going to tell you if we do,” he said. Source.

Next, Access Hollywood has an interview with Nikki Reed and Rachelle Lefevre regarding what fans can expect in New Moon and Taylor’s popularity since he will be the lead actor for New Moon. Watch the interview video here. And you can read the article here.
It seems that we have lots of interviews with the cast. Fear.net has an interesting interview with Rachelle, Edi and Kellan.
Regarding New Moon, you’ll all be in the film.
LUTZ: Yeah we’re all confirmed.
LEFEVRE: It’s vampire camp. I keep calling it vampire camp.
LUTZ: It’s nice to be part of it. It’s very similar to the book. I loved the script, we all enjoyed it and I think it’s just great being back together again.
LEFEVRE: Yeah.
Rumors are all over the internet about new casting. Can you talk about any of them, Dakota Fanning, Vanessa Hudgens, etc.?
GATHEGI: I heard the Vanessa Hudgens, Anna-Lynn McCord rumor for the first time today.
LEFEVRE: I heard Anna-Lynn McCord for the first time today. Who was she meant to play?
GATHEGI: Heidi.
LEFEVRE: Oh, I hadn’t heard that one.
GATHEGI: So that’s the kind of loop I’m in. I heard the Dakota Fanning thing and I had a chance to meet her but Kellan asked her about it.
LUTZ: Yeah, we got to talk with her because she wanted to hang out with us, potentially her future cast mates, at the Push premiere. So that was great. It would be an honor to work with her. I’ve grown up watching her films and she’s a brilliant actress. Even in Push she did an amazing job, so for her to play Jane it would only better the film.
LEFEVRE: I keep laughing because, if we got to work with her, she’s done more movies than I have. Read it all here.
Still on them, Extra has a video interview. Check it out here.
More pictures of Rob in Vancouver can be found here.
Thanks to Bauer Griffin!
Ashley Greene went shopping and shared with the photographers her Spring trends. She mentioned this:
“There are a couple things here that I’d love to bring into Alice’s wardrobe,” said the actress, who got a touch-up from makeup artist Victoria Rowe before our on-camera spree. And speaking of Twilight–“I’ve heard so many rumors and I don’t even know what’s true anymore,” she sighed. “I read the script and there’s definitely a lot of action in it! I’ll have the yellow Porsche to drive. I was going to ask if I could keep it, but I don’t think it’s going to work out.” Read the full story here.
Now that Jane has been cast, who will play Alec? Jarett Weiselmn from Popwrap has a few choices. Whereas EW has a poll on who should be Alec.
[UPDATE] Thanks to Intoxicating Scent, we have a report of the cast in Vancouver and a couple more pictures of Rob…plus Jackson and Kellan. Find it all here.
