Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart To Appear At BAFTA Awards

February 18, 2010

baftanomineesAs we reported a month ago, Kristen Stewart is nominated for a BAFTA (British Academy of Film and Television Awards) Rising Star Award. She is nominated alongside her Adventureland co-star Jesse Eisenberg, Nicholas Hoult, Carey Mulligan, and Tahar Rahim. Since their inception roughly five years ago, the winner has almost always been male and of British descent.  The notable exception is Shia LaBeouf who won two years ago. Last year’s winner was Noel Clarke, most well known for his role as Mickey in the Dr. Who series. Kristen’s toughest competition probably comes from Nicholas Hoult who launched his career in About a Boy with Hugh Grant and currently was on the popular series Skins. BAFTA rising star is a voted category by the British general public so it can be hard to predict what’s going to happen. Given there are several British nominess and the popularity of Twilight, perhaps the vote will be split and Kristen will pull through.

According to the BAFTA Twitter, Robert Pattinson is slated to be a presenter at the awards show, although what he is presenting is unclear.

You can watch the BAFTA’s in the USA assuming you get the BBC America channel this Sunday, February 21st at 8:00pm est and 7:30 Pacific. From information on the BAFTA site, The event itself takes place “Sunday 21st February 2010at the The Linbury Theatre, Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, London.” Start time is 5:30 gmt (meaning it start at 12:30 est. so if you want to stay spoiler free until it airs on BBC America, stay off the Internet  on Sunday afternoon or you will probably get spoiled.

There is also a Twitter picture showing where Kristen will be sitting.Share photos on twitter with Twitpic

There’s a 30 minute feature on what to expect at the awards here.

TY to Kstew411 and TwiFans whose Tweets contributed to this report.

taylor-lautner-toy-fairJust Jared and MTV caught up with Tayolr Lautner at the Hasbro toy fair. He appeared there in conjunction with his upcoming role as Stretch Armstrong which which started way back when as a Hasbro product.

According to Just Jared:

“Taylor Lautner has some fun playing with the new Nerf Raider Blaster as he visits Hasbro’s showroom at the American International Toy Fair in NYC on Tuesday afternoon (February 16).

The 18-year-old actor just beat JJJ’s[Just Jared Junior, Jared’s son] record with the new Bop It Bounce! Until yesterday, JJJ held the record for most bounces with 71. Taylor upped us by 20 more!”

MTV talked to Hasbro executives and this is what they had to say about Taylor:

“”He is a real actor,” Hasbro CEO and “Stretch Armstrong” producer Brian Goldner told MTV News. “And it was so clear to us as we saw him in ‘Twilight.’ And we look for insights from every audience about where we should go with our brands, so when I saw my daughter and all of her friends go crazy for him, and then I saw the background that he was also this mixed martial arts expert in that ‘Saturday Night Live’ piece … that was the real deal.”

Rumor Control: Not 3-D

February 17, 2010

RumorSomehow there is this rumor gaining ground on the Internet that Breaking Dawn is going to be not only two movies, but it’s also going to be in 3-D.

It remains to be seen whether Breaking Dawn will be split into one or two movies (as reported by Nikki Finke of Deadline Hollywood). However Edward’s hair won’t be coming at you in 3-D…good grief…someone could lose an eye that way! LOL 🙂

There are plans for Eclipse to be released in IMAX locations, but that is for large screen size and not a 3-D effect.
