Alex Meraz was in Australia as part of the Supernova Convention. The brand new fansite, The Meraz Effect, has a rundown of Alex’s Q & A on both days that he appeared. Here’s a tidbit from day 1:
~Alex believes he walks a fine line when it comes to representing Native Americans. He says you have to be careful how you represent them.
~Julia got sick of the wolfboys continuously goofing around on set – which helped her look convincing as Leah on screen.
~His brother’s comic books were part of his inspiration for his artwork.
~If the wolfpack were superheroes, Kiowa would be the villain and his power would be height, Bronson’s power would be the ability to laugh, Chaske would have the power to fly, and Alex would have the power of speed.
~FOUR TO THE FLOOR and ON THE RUN not going to be seen anytime soon. FOUR TO THE FLOOR is being edited. ON THE RUN producers haven’t gotten back to him since casting.
~In New Moon when Paul says sorry – that was all Alex! He thought it would be weird if he just walked into Emily’s place and didn’t say anything or acknowledge Bella right after trying to attack her. Kristen backed Alex up and he got to say his line. Plus, this was his favorite scene.
Read the rest of day 1 here and day 2 here.
Alex also Tweeted a photo of himself holding a Koala saying, “Koalas are like holding a sleepy old man!! I got in trouble for trying sneak him into my backpack 
.” He’s luckier than Charlie Bewley and Tinsel Korey who also held koalas when they were in Australia a few months back. They were not dry after their experiences. Maybe the koala like Alex better? 
I was there for day two of the Supanova convention, and I only went for Alex. Mum and I met up with two other girls that were exactly like that, but in their early thirties. We got photos and autographs and then went on to the Q+A. Alex Meraz is truely epic.
Love seeing Twilight stars in Australia. Alex looks great with that koala.
That’s one cute picture!
