IESB: The Bad Vampire’s Interview, Eclipse Press Conference
June 15, 2010
Xavier Samuel, Bryce Dallas Howard, and Dakota Fanning participated in the press roundtable.
“Q: Dakota, you are so very evil in this. What was that like?
Dakota: This is the first time I’ve gotten to play the same character in a different film. It was really great. I love playing this character. It’s a fun character to get to play. And, being a part of all that is Twilight is such an honor and still kind of surreal for me. I feel so lucky to be a part of it.
Q: What do you like about this character?
Dakota: She’s obviously not the nicest person, but it’s kind of fascinating to be able to play someone that takes pleasure in hurting people. That’s a weird thing to get to do and, obviously, something I’ve never done before.
Q: Bryce, how is it coming into this world for the first time?
Bryce: I had not only read the books, but one of my friends actually made this little pack of Post-It notes for me with Rob’s face, that said, “Live dangerously.” All of my friends were like, “Why are you so obsessed?” I was just like, “It’s so dangerous. Their love is so dangerous.” It was very fast and it was very sudden. To be honest, I was intimidated going into it, for a variety of reasons, but I felt so lucky to get to meet this group of people. It’s a group of people that have genuine friendships and are so deeply committed to doing justice to these stories, and who always put the character and the story first. Obviously, that’s translated, and I think that’s why the movies are as beloved as they are.”
Interview Magazine Profiles Xavier Samuel
June 15, 2010
The interesting thing about this interview is that it is done by Xavier’s co-star and Twilight newbie, Bryce Dallas Howard. Anyone who was at the LA Twilight convention I think would agree that the two of them have amazing on stage chemistry and respect in a brother and sister kind of way.
“BRYCE DALLAS HOWARD: So now that you’re almost on the other side with Eclipse, how has everything been for you? It’s all been a little wild, right?
XAVIER SAMUEL: Yeah, it has. It’s kind of like being struck by lightning in a way, because it all seems so improbable.
HOWARD: Eclipse is your first American film.
SAMUEL: It is. I’ve been doing American auditions for a while, and it always felt sort of like sending these audition tapes off into the ether. So just hearing anything back from anyone was kind of startling.
HOWARD: When we were shooting Eclipse, it was amazing for me to see how the girls all went berserk over you. These girls were totally losing their minds—and much like everyone else in the cast who experiences those sorts of things, you dealt with it really graciously and wonderfully. Were you at all startled by that?
SAMUEL: I mean, it’s kind of bizarre, isn’t it? Having that kind of attention. I’m not under the microscope in the same fashion that a lot of the other cast members are, so I think I can slide under the radar a little bit more, but getting any attention at all is completely new for me.
HOWARD: Well, it’s been interesting to see how these young women have responded to you and your hair and your accent.
SAMUEL: My hair and my accent are sort of my main assets.”

Xavier Samuel in GQ
June 2, 2010
As predicted, entertainment and media outlets have picked up on the fact that Xavier Samuel is the hot new face of the Twilight saga. He’s found his way into GQ with a new photo and interview.
You play Riley, a hungry newborn vampire out on a rampage. Full disclosure: I read the book, and Riley’s only on one page.
Yes, I was flipping through the book, thinking: Where’s Riley? He’s whittled down to one line. But in the film, we venture into the world of Riley and watch him assembling this newborn army. It’s more action-packed. And it gives me something more to do, thankfully.

Lexicon reader Heelen from Belgium write”
“I wanted to tell you guys that Ashley and Xavier are attending the Antwerp Eclipse premier on the 29th (which is logical since they will be in Madrid on the 28th) and are rumored to come to Berlin as well in the following days. I did not yet find the info in English for you guys but here’s the news on the dutch speaking websites: http://www.netevents.be/nl/cultuur/nieuws/18056/Twilight-sterren-Ashley-Greene-en-Xavier-Samuel-komen-naar-Belgie/ and this is the site of the theater I purchased my ticket and printed it for that night so it is really true!! http://www.kinepolis.com/be-nl/index.cfm?PageID=345&coufid=44324 😀
I translated the official info from the second website for you:
“First you’ll be able to relive “Twilight” and “Twilight: New Moon” to be entirely in the atmosphere and afterwards you’ll discover “Twilight: Eclipse”! The Twilight Night starts on Tuesday the 29th at 19:30 in all the Kinepolis movie theaters. In Metropolis Antwerp the theaters will open at 18:00 already. Even more you’ll be able to welcome actors Ashley Greene and Xavier Samuel aka Alice Cullen and vampireleader Riley! Tickets are being sold at the moment at 20 euros for the Metropolis and 18 euros in all the other Kinepolis theaters. The ticket will only mention the premiere at 00:01 but gives you off course access to the two other movies on the 29th.”
The other websites mentions additionally “that Ashley and Xavier will host an introduction to the Twilight Night in Antwerp and will appear on the red carpet.”
