A Twilight Saga Fansite
Things went down in Australia pretty much the way they do in the USA…screaming, lots and lots of screaming. Edi Gathegi and Kellan Lutz even encouraged the crowd to do more.
There’s lots of other footage on the 2dayfm site from raw interview footage to photos. Check it out!
Edi and Kellan are in Australia to meet fans for teh DVD release there.
According to Entertainmentwise:
“The pair went down under at Sydney’s JB hi-fi store where they were greeted by a fan frenzy.”

That’s a wrap.
(US Fans should note that Australian DVD’s are not compatible with US DVD systems if they are planning to order anything online).
No, we don’t mean the very popular Twilight site, even though they are really great people (*waves hi to Kimmy and crew*). We are talking about the UK marketing campaign to get people to buy the Twilight DVD…as if they needed encouragement!
I think we can safely say that the “real Cullen” version doesn’t come with the not so subtle hint at what to buy.
It seems that UK actor, Jamie Campbell Bower, is going to be pretty busy in franchise movies. In fact he’s definitely taking a turn for darker characters after having recently played the hero in Sweeney Todd. It seems that Jamie, according to The Daily Mail, is in negotiations to play the part of Grindlewald in the final two Harry Potter movies. As any Harry Potter fan knows, next to Voldemort, Grindlewald was the most terrifying wizard out there.
Also on tap for UK fans this week is the midnight release of the DVD! the Forbidden Planet store in London sounds like it’s the place to be featuring:
“You can take the forbidden romance of Bella and Edward home early when you come down to the London Megastore to pick up your copy of TWILIGHT on DVD
See the Twilight UK site for details.
In case you don’t really want an autograph, but want a bite (no we are not making this up) you can get your DVD bitten over a HMV. We’re a little unclear if it’s an electronic molding of Robert Pattinson’s teeth, or not. If interested talk to the people at HMV.
