October 21, 2009 By 12 Comments
Jackson Rathbone talked to MTV on the set of his new movie, The Girlfriend. Jackson gave them the rundown of some things to expect in Eclipse.
“I got to go back into my old roots, got to ride some horses again, which was nice. Got to put these riding boots to use, which is good,” Rathbone said, motioning to his boots. “I actually can ride a horse…It was just really fantastic to get to delve in there and to get to don[sic] all the Civil War regalia and whatnot. That was a pleasure. I had to wear this wool suit of a major, cavalry major. I got the big hat and everything. Hop off the horse, bow to these ladies, and then I get eaten. And then I get turned!”
From the rest of the interview, it’s pretty clear that Jackson’s key scenes mirror the novel. Check out more details on MTV.
Vanity Fair Interviews Kiowa Gordon
October 21, 2009 By 4 Comments
Vanity Fair has put up their interview with Kiowa Gordon. Judging from Chaske Spencer’s Twitter account, we should eventually be hearing from him too.
“How would you all get revved up before a scene?
We just took off our robes, put our game faces on, and did what we do best.
So you spent a fair amount of time being topless.
Yeeeeep! It was really freezing when we first got to Vancouver.
What was your favorite scene to shoot?
I call it the “muffin scene.” It’s right after Bella finds out we’re all werewolves, and we take her to Emily’s house while Jacob, Paul, and Sam are off in the woods taking care of some wolf business.”

Chris Weitz Talks to The Hollywood Reporter
October 20, 2009 By 10 Comments
Chris Weitz gives an indepth interview to The Hollywood Reporter (illustration Chris Morris), not shying away from any questions or answers:
“THR: How much did you interact with Stephenie Meyer?
Weitz: A lot; we’ve had a real good collaboration. Crucially, she approved me as director, and she didn’t have to. We had some discussions that were very important — my convincing her that I didn’t want to take her baby and run away with it, or tell a story that was counter to the spirit of what she was trying to tell. I see myself, in the last few movies I’ve done, as adapting literary properties into film, so that’s how I treated this one. We got along like a house on fire.
THR: What kind of suggestions did she give you?
Weitz: It would normally be me e-mailing her and running things by her when I felt I was on the edge of getting a detail wrong, everything from the powers of a given vampire to the look of a particular scene or what she imaged a location looked like. And sometimes, when I felt that I was creating something new within the framework she had set up, making sure she was aware of it and that it didn’t make her sick.
THR: For example?
Weitz: A good example is the headquarters of the Volturi. The oldest vampire family lives in Italy, and it was important to me there be nothing in their surroundings that reeked of any other vampire movie. So the interiors are done in a very classic Renaissance style and are very crisp and very bright, which you would not normally expect from a vampire movie”
