Mark Malkin over at E! has confirmed that Robert Pattinson will be a presenter at this year’s Academy Awards. They’re also confirming Zach Efron. They speculate it’s to get more younger viewers to tune in. Now the question is, why isn’t E!’s Ryan Seacrest quoted about Madonna being in New Moon? Well the answer to that one is in our next story.
Entertainment Weekly has tracked down the Madonna rumor of today! It looks like Madonna’s involvement with New Moon will be limited, if at all, to the soundtrack. Thank you EW (and TY to Ana who pointed the coverage out to us!). We know Madonna hasn’t been in the limelight as much as she has been in a couple of years, but we were really, really sure she wasn’t at the point where she was going to do Mrs. Cope, or a walk-on as a member of the Volturi coven.
Also kudos to Variety. They asked Summit directly, and they got confirmation that Madonna will not be acting in the movie.
I think the Lexicon speaks for many fans when we say that we are so tired of the wild rumors. We get it: everyone under 25 in Hollywood wants in as a vampire and every band/artist wants in on the soundtrack. Seriously guys, at this point it wouldn’t surprise us to hear that Elvis is making a comeback as Aro.
