Charlie Bewley: Glamour Magazine Interview

Charlie Bewley did an interview with Glamour Magazine. He gives great insight into what the filming was like for the new kid on the block. Although Demetri is a minor role, it’s our prediction that the role and Charlie are going to be huge fan favorites based on the trailer clips and our meeting him at the Creation Twilight Tour. One thing Charlie has tons of is charisma, that and the fact that he has biceps that are out of this world is going to capture notice.

Were you a Twilight fan before you were cast in New Moon?
I wasn’t a Twilight fan. I just couldn’t get over that whole alpha male-ism that there might be a better-looking person out there in the world but me. (LAUGHS)

What was it about the part of Demetri that part that attracted you?
With Demetri, I knew that I could bring something to this character that no one else could; a certain energy and flare and charisma that I could really bring to him and make my own.

How was it coming into the cast for the second movie as an outsider?
A lot of people misquoted me when I said that it was difficult to come into a group of actors like that and they thought that the whole Hollywood cliché was the problem, but what it is is that with Twilight you have a phenomenon that’s only a year old and everyone has gone through it together; the staple six or eight characters in this film have gone through this massive amount of attention from the world and they have had to bond; they’ve had no choice, whether they liked each other from the start or not. And for people to come onto the set on such a high profile film and expect to just walk in and start high-fiving, that’s just not logical and human nature, and it does take two or three days for people to adjust to someone’s personality and sense of humour, etc. ”

New Moon Taking on 2012

Well, we’re sure that the last thing Sony Pictures anticipated was a New Moon blow out on their 2012 polls.  They ended up asking viewers in a poll what movies, books, music, etc they would save if the world was ending.  To say that Twilight was a dominating force in their polls would be an understatement.

Now, HitFix talks about how these two films are slated to be the big Thanksgiving money makers. Only according to HitFix, it’s going to be another blow out:

“Conventional wisdom has long assumed that November’s two biggest releases would be Sony Pictures’ “2012” and Summit Entertainment’s “The Twilight Saga: New Moon.” In theory, both pictures seemingly should be successful as they have little audience cross over.  As the second installment in the “Twilight” series, “New Moon” should dominate with women and younger women especially.  “2012” is an old fashioned disaster movie that should be a four quadrant sell (i.e., movie for everyone) that drives older audiences, teens and regular moviegoers.  Based on the latest pre-release polling, however, one of the films is in much better shape to dominate the box office than the other.”

What’s Taylor Lautner’s Favorite Movie?

Nikki Reed: Why Twilight is Popular

MTV: What’s the biggest difference, in your personal opinion, between the three “Twilight” books currently being filmed as the “Saga”?

Nikki Reed:
The biggest difference? Well, I know the similarities — it’s an ongoing love story. I guess the action increases and the excitement and visual stimulation. But I think “New Moon” really revolves around this intense love triangle, and with “Eclipse,” it’s more heightened.

Billboard Music Conference Wrap Up

Our friends Lauren, from Twilight Facebook, and Matt and Andrew, from Imprint/Twilight Source, attended Billboard’s Film and TV Music Festival. Here is their report:

“Some of music’s top film and television producers, supervisors and editors were out in full force for Billboard’s Film and TV Music Festival on Thursday, October 29th at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, CA. People from all corners of the industry were in attendance to cultivate and learn new information to apply to their careers, or even just to see what made these music supervisors so successful. Companies such as ABC/Disney showed off their impressive musical choices that have garnered them so much attention such as working with The Fray in Grey’s Anatomy and the ever popular show, Hannah Montana. However, the big buzz that surrounded this conference wasn’t because of a 16 year old girl with split personalities. That honor bestows upon this year’s hottest soundtrack and highly anticipated theatrical score for The Twilight Saga: New Moon.

The Official Twilight Facebook page and Twilight Source were on hand to experience two panels devoted to a behind the scenes look into the making and popularity of the series’ soundtrack and instrumental score. The first discussion involved Alexandra Patsavas (Chop Shop Music), Livia Tortella ( Marketing, Atlantic Records) and Paul Katz ( Music Consultant, Summit Entertainment, LLC.) These “masterminds” behind the multi-million selling soundtrack to “Twilight” discussed how exactly they put together the newest ensemble of songs for the film’s sequel, “The Twilight Saga: New Moon…”

Jimmy Fallon is back with his impersonation of Robert Pattinson as Edward. This time it’s Halloween style.

NBC’s The Office also got into the act with Ryan dressing up as Edward. TY to Becky K for the heads up.

David Slade Tweets Xavier Samuel Photo

David Slade Tweeted a picture of Xavier Samuel in character as Riley. David said, “In celebration of wrap first Eclipse cast photo Xavier Samuels between set ups as Riley Biers.”  Well, looks like we now know what Riley’s last name is, at least in movieverse.
