David Slade Addresses Online Rumors

Over the last week and especially this weekend, rumors have sprung up regarding the reshoots (known as pick up shots) in Vancouver. We’ve seen every kind of speculation.  It ranged from “the entire film’s in chaos, they are redoing everything” to “Rob and David were at each others throats over the filming, and Rob walked out after an argument causing a massive delay” and just about every other manipulation of those two items that you can think of.

No doubt in reaction to the myriad of rumors, David Slade (who has previously been notoriously silent on such matters) has commented on his Twitter. This is a very unusual reaction from David Slade who in the midst of other rumor intensive times merely Tweeted out pictures of flowers, fish, and weathered crew members; seemingly immune to it all.

Here is what David Slade had to say, even though it’s an old adage that you can’t be sure of tone of voice on the Internet,we think it’s pretty clear here.

“So strange, I go away for three weeks and return to all these upsetting completely fabricated rumours. Who makes this stuff up as news.

REAL NEWS: last 3 weeks have gone fantastic, pick up shoot felt more like a reunion. Rob, Kristen,Taylor the crew & I gave 110%”

LA Times interviews the Wolf Pack

It seems the LA Times is working their way through the various groups of Twilight characters.  Today they have an interview with Chaske Spencer, Alex Meraz, and Julia Jones.  Alex Meraz said:

“The fans are going to love this film,” he said. “I didn’t get my chance to touch anybody in ‘New Moon.’ This time I go at it with Emmett [ Kellan Lutz]. I give him a nice bitch slap. But I’m in wolf form, so maybe it’s a big paw slap?

Another Image of Jodelle Ferland as Bree

Once again, thanks to the folks over at Creation Entertainment, we have another image of Jodelle Ferland as Bree Tanner.  What’s new about this photos is that it looks like an actual still image from the film and not a publicity shot like the last one was.  Sow what do you think?  Do her eyes look more like a newborn vamp in this picture?

LA Times: The Family That Slays Together Stays Together

Liz-Peter-Nikki

The LA Times has a piece on the Cullen family’s role in Eclipse. More exciting they are featuring the elusive Liz Reaser who plays Esme!

“The whole family is in a vulnerable position because of the love we have for Bella,” said Elizabeth Reaser, who plays matriarch Esme Cullen. “If she’s not OK, we’re not OK…Esme is still a vampire. She still wants to kill people all day long. It was interesting to get in touch with the vampire side of her in ways that haven’t really been explored. Her family is in danger and that brings out the mama bear in her.”

charlie-bewley-and-a-koalaInstead of Wolfpack Wednesday, we are doing another feature called Volturi Venerdì which means Volturi Friday. To kick it off we are going to give away a signed photo of Demetri himself, Charlie Bewley. (Photo via Eyebehold)

We’ve met Charlie at several Creation Entertainment Official Twilight Tour stops and he’s very entertaining. He’s actually taken to sending us direct messages on Twitter when he’s not at a convention where he, in a good natured way, heckles Dan Cudmore on stage during his Q & A.

So from the cool UK accent, to the sense of humor, to the sort of overgrown cheeky schoolboy, we’ve fallen under Charlie’s spell. Tell us in the comments what you love about Charlie and we’ll pick a random winner at midnight est tonight.

Eclipse Reshoots Day 2

robreshootIt’s a bit on the boring side since everything was inside a studio as Mandy reports.

“There isn’t much to report on today. It was all in studio.  As I’ve mentioned n the past studio is great for the cast and crew because there is no public access. The downside of this for fans is no photos, information, etc.

Here is what I do know:

Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner started at 5am and wrapped at just after 9pm. Kristen Stewart left first, Taylor shortly after. It was a long day and it didn’t go as scheduled.  It is not a studio they used before for either New Moon or Eclipse. Though Robert Pattinson was on set today he did not film as scheduled(photo of rob leaving the bar studio).  Instead he was seen in the late afternoon at a bar on Commercial drive with good friend Sam Bradley having a bite to eat and a few beers.”
