Kellan Lutz on New Directors

MTV: What do you see as the biggest difference between the tales in the “Twilight” saga?

Kellan Lutz: What’s the biggest difference? That’s an interesting question. Because the books are already about different subjects. Stephenie [Meyer] wrote them with the Romeo and Juliet aspect, and then, each one has a different persona. It’s a really cool concept. But as far as the directors go, each director is different. Catherine [Hardwicke] was very energetic, and she made this beautiful movie. Chris [Weitz] had this really cool, really laid-back [vibe], but has a great sense of how to do CGI and how to make these wolves look real and bigger than life versus just some computerized image. Then David Slade, with his action background and his indie style, just mixed the two. The movies are going to be unique in their own aspects, and that’s what’s really interesting — it’s not the same director doing each one. We, as actors, got to see different styles of [directing]. So it doesn’t feel old, ever.

Ashley Greene: Post Eclipse Memories

Ashley Greene talked to MTV about what her Eclipse experience was like.

According to Ashley, she and Kellan came up with an inventive way of welcoming newbie Xavier Samuel into the franchise family:

“MTV: There’s so much “Twilight” merchandise out there. Do you own any?

Greene: I have a couple shirts. I have a couple things from “Twilight” that I want to keep as memorabilia, and so I have a couple shirts. I definitely have the necklace. While filming, Kellan bought the “Twilight” game, and we played. We made Xavier [Samuel] play it, the poor new kid. We were like, “The new kid will play!” and so we had Xavier come over and Peter Facinelli came over. Me and him and those two guys and Kellan played the “Twilight” game. And I won. I’m just saying. No big deal.”
