Live Blog Hall H Kellan Lutz in The Immortals

Creative team descrining the gods as young, fierce , and pierced.

They deliberately made the gods young saying if you were immortal would you look like them or me?(pointing to middle-aged producer)

Director/producers on Kellan Lutz

You see him with hardly anything on on Calvin Klein bilboards throughout the world.

Interesting that on the panel Henry cavil is sitting next to Kellan Lutz. Henry was Stephenie Meyers vision on Edward when she first wrote the books in 2005

Kellan says “I’m the salty one”. “I’m always in the water” “I ma the god of wetness and moisture.”

Kellan says “I love my character. I love swimming I’m always in the water.”

Directors said they were looking for originality and cutting edge when it came to getting the young actors.

Kellan says his diving powers are all about being a young agile gods

Kellan waggles his eyebrows when his trident is mentioned

Other item on interest, Henry cavil (IMO) looks to be pushing 30 he would not have been able to pull off realistic 17 he looks way older than Kellan

Hilariously, they have referenced hot guys on this panel way more than in the Twilight panel. Seriously they are selling this on the studdliness of the guys

Kellan says Little Mermaid is his favorite movie, he jokes he watched it to prep for the film

Comic Con Schedules 2011: Breaking Dawn, Kellan Lutz, Taylor Lautner, and Kristen Stewart

Comic Con 2011 has now released their Thursday through Saturday schedules. Granted they are subject to change, and an actor might have to suddenly bow out if their filming schedule changes or have to do ADR work. But here is what we have so far. Kristen Stewart, Kellan Lutz, and Taylor Lautner will all be there to support other projects as well as Breaking Dawn.

Thursday

“11:15-12:15 The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1— Summit Entertainment presents a sneak peek at the highly anticipated next chapter of The Twilight Saga. This is a must see for fans interested in the story’s final chapters. You’ll see exclusive footage from The Twilight Saga Breaking Dawn Part 1 and be treated to a filmmaker and cast Q&A session providing details on the first half of the epic two-part finale. Hall H ”

Abduction Panel and signing official info via the Lionsgate studio TBA. Below is what we have from The Hollywood Reporter (I’d give them a 90% accuracy rate going on past Twilight connected experience):

“The news you’ve all been waiting for: Taylor Lautner is going to Comic-Con.

Sure, we all suspected he was going to be part of the Twilight: Breaking Dawn panel but Lautner will also be on hand to promote his action thriller Abduction. He will be at the Lionsgate booth (#3729 for those of you trying to map out the San Diego Convention Center floor) for a signing Thursday, July 21.”

At this time we don’t know if the signing with Taylor will come before or after the Breaking Dawn Panel. If we had to go with our gut instinct, we’d probably bet on after because there will likely be a press conference that he is involved in running before.

MTV’s Hollywood Crush is continuing their actor sorting hat series. They already did a ton of cast members the other day, and now they have added Kellan Lutz. Assign him to a house here. Vote for Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, Ashley Greene and Jackson Rathbone here.

In case anyone is wondering, Laura (Pel) and Alphie (Lori) are self-proclaimed Ravenclaw and Gryffindor members.

Who Is Attending Comic Con 2011 From Twilight?

So far Summit hasn’t given out their official list yet. If we were betting people (and we are) we’d lay odds on Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, and Bill Condon. The trio and the director have pretty much been a pattern since the first Comic Con appearance. After that it depends on who has a free schedule, who is in town, etc.

We already know that two Twilight actors are going to be there promoting other projects:

Taylor Lautner will be there to promote Abduction. According to THR:

“The news you’ve all been waiting for: Taylor Lautner is going to Comic-Con.

Sure, we all suspected he was going to be part of the Twilight: Breaking Dawn panel but Lautner will also be on hand to promote his action thriller Abduction. He will be at the Lionsgate booth (#3729 for those of you trying to map out the San Diego Convention Center floor) for a signing Thursday, July 21.”

Kellan Lutz will be there to promote The Immortals (info from Immortals press release):

DATE: Saturday, July 23
1:00pm – 2:00pm: Comic-Con Panel in Hall H
2:30pm – 3:30pm: Official autograph signing at the Convention Center

GUESTS: Henry Cavill, Luke Evans, Kellan Lutz, Stephen Dorff, Freida Pinto, Mickey Rourke, and producers Mark Canton and Gianni Nunnari”

Kellan Lutz: Twilight Opened Doors

Kellan Lutz is doing press for his upcoming Immortals where he plays Poseidon. Coming Soon took part in a Q&A session with all the actors:

Q: Do you see this movie as a step up for you or a challenge to get out of “The Twilight Saga”?


Lutz:
I’m very blessed with “The Saga” because I am a character that, yeah, people ask why I don’t have as many lines as everyone else. Well, I can’t change the books so my character’s more of a presence. Even in “Eclipse,” I have more action and fighting scenes than I do dialogue. I can’t help that. I’m very fortunate and blessed that it still pushes my career up to the level where I’m not the face of the books, so I’m still, like floating, so the next thing I do, like the other independent movies I do and I’m very choosy with like “The Killing Game” is my own type of underground “Gladiator”/Jason Bourne type of movie. That’s what I want to do so being a part of these huge commercial movies like “Twilight” opens up doors so I can be the star of other movies and really show my acting chops, show and pick what I want to do as an actor kind of molded my career.”
