Chris Weitz: Interviewed on Metro Canada

June 10, 2009

Metro Canada continues their New Moon series of interviews. Today’s interview is with Chris Weitz.

“Q. How does it feel to take over directorial duties of such a successful franchise?

A. On the one hand, it’s exciting to take over a successful franchise. On the other, it’s daunting. There are so many fans who have high expectations for this film, but it’s made easy by the fact that I inherited this amazing cast who are certainly very talented. So half of the time, I’m just overjoyed to be a part of this and the other half, I’m nervous that I’m going to be hunted down and killed by a pack of 14-year-old teenage girls in about a year’s time!”

Tomorrow they will be posting an interview with Kristen Stewart.

Taylor Lautner: Metro Canada Interview

June 9, 2009

MetroCanada is continuing their five-part series with an interview with Taylor Lautner.  They are proming that tomorrow’s interview will be with director Chris Weitz.

Q. What’s your most exciting scene in “New Moon”?


A. It’s so hard to choose. Like I said, I really enjoy the stunts so I had a lot of fun doing the dirt bike sequences. I got to hop on the bike and go really fast and come to a skidding stop. It’s really cool. And I also like a lot of the more serious scenes, the pivotal scenes in the movie, like Jacob and Bella’s breakup scene, which is the first time Bella sees Jacob after he has transformed into a wolf. And it’s really emotional. I felt bad for Jacob just reading the books, but now that I’m actually living this character, I feel so bad for the guy! It’s really sad.

Edi Gathegi was one of the stars present at the SuperCon sci-fi convention in Florida. The website Twilight Actors caught up with Edi there and asked him a few questions about his role in New Moon, his co-stars, and upcoming projects.

“So, you said that you have a lot of really good friends on the set of Twilight. Do you hang out with people outside the set?

Taylor [Lautner] and I hang out with Kellan [Lutz], and Peter Facinelli hosts game night, we play poker at his house. Rachelle [Lefevre] and I are food junkies so we meet for brunch and cake for brunch. So on the Twilight movies, it is like a Twilight family, we all get along and we all understand each other. It’s fun. Vamp-camp is what we named it. Welcome to Vamp Camp!”

Parents Examiner Interviews Gil Birmingham

June 9, 2009

The newly formed Twilight Parents Examiner had the opportunity to interview Gil Birmingham.

You look like you still work out regularly. What is a typical workout regime for you? Did you ever work out with or have tips for Taylor while he was in the process of muscling up?

I try to get to the gym every day, but as my schedule becomes more hectic, sometimes it’s difficult. Taylor needs no workout tips from me. He worked tremendously hard between Twilight and New Moon to bulk up, and it paid off. I’m impressed by the discipline and commitment that Taylor has to acting and to his work at such a young age. He will have a long and successful career.

Check it out on the Twilight Parents Examiner.
