Producer Wyck Godfrey was also interviewed by the four entertainment sites invited for a set visit in May about a week after we were there. We’ve met Wyck ourselves on more than one occasion and he talks a lot. We mean that in a good way, he gives out lots of information and is interesting. he’s not a yes and no answer kind of guy. Here’s the highlights of what he covered:
* Why the production shot in Montepulciano vs. Volterra, Italy
* On whether the cast members are all locked into four picture deals.
* On actors and directors campaigning to be part of the new films.
* Will there be celebrity cameos in “New Moon”?
* On casting Dakota Fanning as Jane.
* Quantifying original writer Stephenie Meyer’s involvement in the movie franchise.
* On why David Slade was chosen to direct “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.”
* The difficulties of adapting “Breaking Dawn” to the big screen.

Great interview. He is very forthcoming and intelligent with his comments, as you said, and gives us more information than we expect. Thanks!
