Grattis till alla er som ska se Green Day på Ullevi i Göteborg i sommar för Joan Jett(som Kristen Stewart spelar i The Runaways) kommer var förbandet till konserten. :D

Hur hinner du blogga så ofta?

Ofta och ofta, det första jag gör när jag kommer hem från skolan är att sätta mig och blogga . När jag har gjort några inlägg gör jag mina studier sen har jag inget annat att göra än att blogga!

Varför startade du bloggen?

Jag startade bloggen för att jag länge har velat starta en blogg, sedan upptäckte jag Twilight Sagan och blev besatt så då kunde jag lika gärna starta en Twilight blogg.

När läste du den första Twilight boken? Och har du läst alla? Vilken är bäst?

Jag har läst alla böcker och min favorit är Eclipse/Ljudet av ditt hjärta.

Vad var den första tanken du tänkte när du såg Edward i Twilight när han gick igenom kafeterian?

Hm… det första jag tänkte var oj vad bra han ser ut, haha!

Vad heter din favorit film, om du inte får välja Twilight?

Det är nog Death Note. ;)

Vad heter din favorit TV-serie?

Våra bästa år.

Team Edward eller Team Jacob?

Team Edward såklart! :D

Varför slutade Sanna att blogga?

Ja du, som hon skrev i sitt sista inlägg var det för att hon inte gillade Twilight så mycket och för att hon inte hade tid att driva bloggen.

Vem var det som startade bloggen?

Det var jag(Nilli) som startade bloggen.

Har du någonsin känt att du inte vill blogga mer?

Ja, det är mycket tidskrävande men jag har nog aldrig velat sluta helt och hållet. Det är för kul att blogga!

Kommer du från Sverige, om inte vart kommer du ifrån?

Jag kommer faktiskt från Iran.

Varför skrev aldrig Stephenie Meyer klart Midnight Sun?

Som hon har skrivit på sin hemsida var det några ungdomar som la ut det hon hade skrivit på internet och det chockerade henne väldigt mycket.

Var bor du?

Jag bor i Malmö.

Vad skulle du vilja bli när du blir stor?

Kanske jobba på någon tidning eller skådespeleri!

Vad är din favorit färg?

Jag älskar älskar röd.

Nikki Reed eller Kristen Stewart?

Kristen Stewart.

Såg du filmen först eller läste du boken? VÄRLDENS BÄSTA BLOGG, TACK! <3

Jag såg filmen först och tack så mycket! :D

Är det inte tufft att blogga själv?

Ja, verkligen! Men det finns inget roligare. ;)

Tror du Robert och Kristen dejtar?

Ingen aning, men jag hoppas.

Är det du som har fixat designen? Den är jättefin!

Tack, det är jag som har gjorde den. :)

Teen Vogue online har skrivit en cool artikel om hur du kan fixa en Twilight inspirerad Bal inspirerad av Bella,Alice och Rosalie.

Bella's stil:

Alex Meraz
Age: 25
Mesa, AZ
Alex Meraz bulked up for his role as a werewolf in Twilight, and now he’s getting slim and androgynous for the lead in Larry Clark’s Savage Innocent.

Larry Clark thought I probably wouldn’t be right for the role in Savage Innocent, having just finished Twilight.  He’s very particular about the actors he wants to work with.  I really had to fight to get the job.  I brought a gun with me and showed him.  “Look man, this is how real I am.” [Ed: he's kidding, we think.]

My new year’s resolution is to have a gallery show this year.  I’m a painter but didn’t pursue it professionally because I was interested in other things.  I stayed up all last night painting. Right now I feel like a painter more than anything else.

I’m fascinated by the writing process.  A good friend of mine is a writer for True Blood, and I’m interested in the deadlines and having people say that something’s not good and to rewrite it. I wish I would have stuck with writing and I wish I knew how to spell.

I think a misconception about me is that I’m just a pretty boy.  Most people are just in this industry for the publicity and glamour of it, which is an element for sure, but I think I want something completely different. I really respect the craft and want to develop as an actor.

The Daily Telegraph fick prata med Daniel när han var på besök i Australia för MelbourneTwilight convention.

Daniel Cudmore, who plays evil Volturi vampire Felix, and Booboo Stewart, who plays young werewolf Seth Clearwater, are among the stars of the Twilight Saga movies in Sydney and Melbourne for the Australian Twilight Convention.

At 6-feet-7 (1.83 metres), muscle-bound Canadian actor Cudmore isn't hard to miss.

But out enjoying his first trip to Australia he's yet to be spotted by Twihards.

"I've just walked around the whole city," Cudmore told AAP in Sydney.

"For some reason people don't associate me with some of the roles I've played.

"I think a lot of people in the city looked at me wondering what sport I play."

Cudmore did start out as a football player in Canada, before getting into stunt work and acting.

His breakthrough role came in the X-Men films, using his height to his advantage playing Colossus.

The fantasy films have plenty of fans, but Cudmore says it's nothing compared to the reaction to the Twilight series.

"It's more intense, there's so much more passion," he said.

"I think maybe because it's a newer phenomenon, whereas X-Men has been around for such a long time through the comic books and the movies."

Cudmore's character Felix is a Volturi thug whose day-to-day job is "tearing apart other vampires".

He says Felix is a nasty piece of work, but a joy to play.

"He's an angry vampire, he doesn't really get much respect, and he's been around for thousands of years ... and he's just really, really good at what he does," Cudmore said.

"It's a fun character - it's fun to play someone dark, who goes on the animal side and enjoys it."

The physical role included a fight scene with Robert Pattinson, who plays Edward.

Pattinson is a heartthrob to Twilight fans the world over, but Cudmore said the handsome actor was keen to do as much of his own stunt work as possible.

"Rob's a great guy, he's really game for anything," Cudmore said.

"He was nervous at first, because he was like, `you know I'm not the most athletic guy out there, I don't think I'm going to be able to do this'.

"After rehearsing for a few hours he was really, really having a good time with it. He had a blast."

Twilight fans can get up close to Cudmore, Stewart, and co-stars Gil Birmingham (Billy Black) and Christian Serratos (Bella's friend Angela) at the Twilight Conventions in Sydney and Melbourne on April 24 and 25.

The third Twilight film, Eclipse, will be released in Australia on July 1.

De duktiga MTV människorna har gjort en lista på vad de tyckte saknades i trailern.

BREE TANNER
What a tease. First Stephenie Meyer announced she was publishing a new book about the short-lived Bree Tanner, then Summit announced “Eclipse” was having reshoots (it could have been to include more Bree scenes!), but then when the trailer was released there was no Bree! We wouldn’t expect much, since Bree doesn’t have much screen time anyways, but we were at least hoping for a quick flash of Jodelle Ferland’s face.

FLASHBACKS
A decent amount of “Eclipse’s” 629 pages is spent explaining the back story of Jasper, Rosalie and the Quilette tribe through flashbacks. We already know we’ll be seeing Jasper’s story unfold on screen, and can assume the same about Rosalie and the wolf pack. But where is this in the trailer? We can understand it might be hard to fit into a minute-and-a-half long trailer, but hopefully in the future we’ll get to see a featurette or something.

THE TENT SCENE
Well, at least this scene is teased in the trailer, although if you didn’t know what you were looking for, you probably would have missed it. At 1:12, Bella and Jacob can be seen talking on a snowy mountain, and at 1:16 Edward and Bella are shown facing off against Victoria. But we want to see Bella curled up in a sleeping bag with a smug Jacob while Edward looks on in tortured agony. Don’t make us wait for June 30 for this one, Slade!

A: You know, growing up, Freddy Krueger was the only thing that scared me. I have three older brothers who picked on me, and they did anything to beat me up, but Freddy was the ultimate freak factor. Because Jason from Friday the 13th or Chucky — they were kind of funny. I even had a Chucky doll. But something that attacks you in your sleep? [Shivers]

Q: So which gets you more attention these days — Twilight or the Calvin Klein-underwear ads?
A: Well, I had my mom’s best friends proposing [after Twilight], which is kind of flattering. Some of them are really quite attractive. So I might hold onto those numbers and e-mails. But with Calvin Klein, it was always a dream to be a part of the company, and to do it on such a high level? I didn’t know it would be for underwear, at first. But, hey, Mark Wahlberg, it really helped his career, and I can only hope I get half the chance he did. Twilight opens doors, but Rob [Pattinson], Kristen [Stewart], and Taylor [Lautner] are the faces of the franchise, and the rest of us float under the radar, so I think this will allow me to have my time. And hopefully people seeing me in my Skivvies will allow me to have some awesome action movies come my way.

Q: At least that’ll help you with Eclipse and Breaking Dawn. There’s more Emmett coming up?
A: Yes! A lot more fighting with the Cullens. I know they’re working on scripts, potentially breaking the last one into two movies. They haven’t said anything to us yet. Once my agent gets the phone call that we’re good to go. And I would love to do it in 3-D. What actor wouldn’t?

Q: So when are we going to see an Emmett-based rock band? Bella and Edward already have Twi-rock bands inspired by them.
A: There should be an Emmett band, yes! I have three roommates, and they’re very gung ho about it, when I told them I had an idea to start a band ourselves. We are currently taking classes, and hopefully we could become a 30 Seconds to Mars-type band. I would love that.

The cast will be on Oprah for the very first time everon May 13th!

Oprah Winfrey revealed on Friday that the stars of “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse” will be coming to Chicago next month to tape an episode of her show. The announcement came at the end of her interview with “Twilight” actress Dakota Fanning, via skype.

“Dakota, we’ll see you in Chicago on Thursday, May 13,” Winfrey said. “We’ll have all the other big ‘Twilight’ stars right here too. Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner all will be here. Tune in for a ‘Twilight’ show.”

Daniel Cudmore, Christian Serratos och BooBoo Stewart är just nu i Sydney, Australien. Gänget tog sig tid att besöka Sidney Wildlife World tidigare i veckan och de verkar gilla stället.

Bella isn’t like other girls — she falls in love with Edward, a vegetarian vampire, and she could care less about going to prom. She has other things to worry about, like falling prey to the evil vampires. But Edward won’t let her miss this human rite of passage, so he takes her to prom, where they dance the night away in a beautiful gazebo.

Since Twilight fever swept the nation, we’ve had our eyes fixed on Kristen Stewart’s wardrobe. On the red carpet she takes on daring looks that most Hollywood stars would shy away from – stand-out looks have come from Proenza Schouler, Burberry, and graphic Pucci numbers. Off-duty, however, Kristen quickly ditches the heels and minis in favour of jeans and Converse. But whether Kristen’s wearing a strapless Oscar de la Renta gown or checked shirt and leather leggings, her smouldering eye and rock chick attitude give this rising star an achingly cool edge.

Love Kristen? Subscribe to ELLE and be the first to see her issue. Coming Soon.

Sedan Twilight yran svepte våran nation så har vi haft våra ögon fixerade på Kristen Stewarts garderob. På röda mattan har hon på sig djärva outfits som många av våra Hollywood stjärnor skulle vara alldeles för blyga för att använda – vissa klädesplagg som har stuckit ut har varit från bland annat Proenza Schouler, Burberry och grafiska Pucci nummer. Utanför jobbet, hur som helst, så är Kristen ganska snabb på att ta på sig en vardaglig outfit, utan högklackade skor och mini klänningar, utan favoriterna är jeans och Converse. Men oavsett om Kristen har på sig en Oscar de la Renta klänning eller en rutig skjota och lädertaights så ger hennes prydande öga och rockiga attityd denna stigande stjärna ett smärtsamt coolt övertag.

Älskar du Krisen? Meddela oss på ELLE och bli en utav de första som får se hennes upplaga. Kommer snart.

MARK JACOBS: Hi, Kellan? Where are you right now?

KELLAN LUTZ: I am in my backyard in L.A. hanging out with my two dogs.

JACOBS: Who are your dogs?

LUTZ: Kola is a shepherd-husky mix I adopted from the Compton animal shelter. Kevin is the newest, most adorable member of our family. He’s a Chihuahua. I found him on the street when I came back from one of my trips.

JACOBS: You spent time on a dairy farm in Iowa while you were growing up?

LUTZ: Iowa is where the big farm was, where my grandparents lived. After my parents divorced, we would visit them. My mom would send me out to the pigpen, where we had these huge, huge pigs. I would stand there for six hours holding a hose, watering pigs. They’d dive in the mud and shake it off, and I’d go home covered in it. I loved the whole thing of getting wet and dirty and then getting in a warm bath.

JACOBS: You also have experience spraying crops and building silos. Are you aware of how this story reads in New York and L.A.? Anything involving uncontrived hard labor is irresistible to the style industry.

LUTZ: I’d rather do manual labor than sit behind a desk. And as my grandparents got older, I’d fly out there and help out around the farm. We’d tear barns down; we’d build barns. I’d rather be outside rolling hay or driving the tractors.

JACOBS: Then how did you choose Hollywood?

LUTZ: I have a lot of older brothers who messed up in different ways in my mother’s eyes. So I learned from all of their mistakes. I can’t go into detail, but while I was growing up, I always tried to make it a goal to relieve some of the stress my mother went through. I applied myself to school very diligently. I wanted to go out of state so I wouldn’t have to depend on my mother. And L.A., where my father lived, seemed to call to me.

JACOBS: Why acting?

LUTZ: In L.A., I was meeting people who were all actors. My mind started to open up to what acting was. I didn’t realize that Brad Pitt was a real person. I didn’t think he was a robot or a machine, but I thought you were just born into acting—that it’s a family tree, kind of like NASCAR. No one can just say, “Hey, I’m going to be a

NASCAR driver.” They need to have some way in. Once I was in L.A., I realized anyone could do this. Why not give it a shot? I started going to a ton of acting classes, and I found I had a real passion for it, probably the biggest passion I’ve ever had in my whole life. So I decided to put school aside, put all my scholarships aside, put everything that I worked hard on for my mother and myself aside, and pursue this roller-coaster ride.

JACOBS: How old were you when you got the -Abercrombie & Fitch cover?

LUTZ: Eighteen. I was actually working in L.A. at an Abercrombie to make friends. I had no friends.

JACOBS: On the sales floor?

LUTZ: I was selling clothes. But I believe my personality helped, because I was the worst folder. I just couldn’t care to do it. I felt like I had ADD. I would just goof around and shoot rubber bands everywhere. Somehow the manager didn’t fire me, and I became a greeter, when you have to stand outside, you know, topless, and kind of finagle people into the store. Then Abercrombie had an audition, and my agency sent me out. I met Bruce Weber, and they chose me. I wasn’t the strongest, most fit, best-looking guy on that shoot, but somehow Bruce put me on the cover. I was just lying on the grass playing with this beetle, and they used that shot. I was still working at the store when the magazine came out two months later. I was just very lucky, and that opened up doors to acting.

JACOBS: Unlike some actors, you don’t seem to have a need to distance yourself from modeling.

LUTZ: It’s weird that the world sees modeling as a negative. It just blows my mind how many people think that because I was a model, I think I’m pretty and that I can use my looks to get ahead. I’m not pretty!

JACOBS: You really don’t think you’re pretty?

LUTZ: It’s funny when people say you have sex appeal or call you the next Brad Pitt. I just laugh. I’m not that. I don’t want to be that. “You’re a sex icon.” Why? Because I played a vampire in a movie? It’s all very unearned. If I had the best freaking abs in the world or if I looked like Brad Pitt does in Fight Club [1999], then cool, but I’m not starving myself. I eat what I want, and I’m not a workout fiend. My genetics are good, but they aren’t crazy He-Man style. I don’t get it, but I appreciate it. [laughs]

JACOBS: And sometimes you just like to go on a shirtless run with your dog, and people need to deal with it.

LUTZ: I don’t see why it’s special. I know a lot of people who run shirtless because they don’t want their clothes to get sweaty. I’m just a normal person. And I have four paparazzi who sit outside my house all day.

JACOBS: Your humility is charming, but do you ever look at other guys going up for a role and think, “I can destroy you with my good looks”?

LUTZ: I love competition. I thrive on it. I love being able to win the room over before even walking through the door. When I was going out for Twilight, I was a big guy, especially after Generation Kill. I was close to 200 pounds and just all muscle. The character description was a big, bulky fighter, a wrestler, a bear of a guy with a smile. I walked in the waiting room and I noticed nine other actors, and half of them were trying to do push-ups, and half of them were trying to be all tough. I chuckled to myself. I’m very perceptive. I love seeing guys out of the corner of my eye be like, “Great.” Because they see a guy walking in who totally looks the role. It’s funny. I don’t try to be cocky, but I’m just very confident because I know I did all of my homework. I also really love, love, love doing character pieces. I love wearing wigs to auditions, even though sometimes they don’t work. I love trying to play the not-confident guy, the guy against my normal character, because that’s when real acting comes into play.

JACOBS: So you have four very different films coming up.

LUTZ: I’ve had a great run with great projects. Especially the new ones. I love this industry. It keeps you young; it really does.

JACOBS: You’re pretty young.

LUTZ: I’ll always see myself as young at heart. I mean, I’m 25, and some people see that as getting up there.

JACOBS: Who’s telling you you’re getting up there?

LUTZ: People are saying that you can’t play high school anymore and I’m like, “Thank god.” I want to be the Jason Bourne type. I don’t want to play high school.

JACOBS: You’re unapologetic about wanting to be an action star.

LUTZ: It’s all about goals. If you just take whatever comes to you, then you’re not going to get anywhere. The more you say it around town or in meetings, it starts happening. That’s what’s going on right now. People are seeing me as the guy who wants to get hurt, who wants to break a bone, get bruises. And that’s how it was growing up with six brothers. I got beat up, and I beat up people. I have no real tattoos. I wear my bruises and tons of scars as my -tattoos. And I’ve grown up loving action movies. I’d love to work with Sylvester Stallone, and I almost had the chance to in The Expendables [out August 2010], but that didn’t work out because of scheduling. I’d love to work with him and Mickey Rourke, Matt Damon, Daniel Craig, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Jean-Claude Van Damme. . . . Bloodsport [1988] was one of my favorite movies. I feel like there’s only so many roles out there and such a surplus of actors that if you don’t have a goal, you just get lost.

JACOBS: You’ve covered your bases. You even did a Hilary Duff video [“With Love”].

LUTZ: My agent and my girlfriend at the time both wanted me to go out for the audition. There’s a quote, I think it’s Wayne Gretzky, that says you miss 100 percent of the shots you never take. That’s so true. That’s why I love going out for any audition. I’m very professional, I study my stuff, I work on it, and even if I’m not right for the job, so what? I know I did my best.

JACOBS: You keep getting roles because you’re a talented actor and you’re dedicated to what you do.

LUTZ: I’ve got a lot to learn, and I’m very blessed to work with such talented actors. I’m nowhere near my goal. It’s all about applying yourself and taking time to work and train. I want to be doing this until the day I die. I want to be in movies and working with people who push me to be a better actor. That’s what I look forward to, and that’s what’s important to me. I just want to test out all that Kellan is and push him to the limits and create new Kellans.

Twilight author Stephenie Meyer loves Blue October. Simple as that.

Back in June, 2008 she and Blue October announced that for Breaking Dawn’s release, she and lead singer and songwriter Justin Furstenfeld would be joining hands for a mini-tour across the United States.

Check out this video of the two of them talking about that very news, and you will see how enthusiastic Stephenie Meyer was about having Furstenfeld in her corner for the event.

The band is also featured on Meyer’s New Moon playlist for ”Sound of Pulling Heaven Down” and ”Hate Me (Radio Edit),” her Eclipse playlist for ”Overweight (Radio Edit),” and, naturally, herBreaking Dawn playlist for ”Congratulations.” (Also, the band is cited for their songs ”Ugly Side” and ”You Make Me Smile” on Stephenie Meyer’s Midnight Sun playlist.)

So, for some Twilight fans, the fact that Blue October hasn’t been included on the official soundtrack listings for Twilight and The Twilight Saga: New Moon is a bit confounding.

Other bands frequenting Meyer’s playlist include Muse and Linkin Park who did make it onto one or more of the albums. Stephenie Meyer’s playlists have been very influential, in fact, to the soundtrack contributors listed on the albums. For instance, Collective Soul’s ”Tremble for my Beloved” was actually a part of the Twilight album, and other bands like Ok Go, Editors, The Killers, Death Cab for Cutie, and Radiohead (Thom Yorke broke out on his own from this band) all appeared on one or more of her playlists and did make it onto the album.

Aside from Blue October, there are only a handful of other bands appearing regularly on the Stephenie Meyer playlists but not on the soundtracks like Coldplay and My Chemical Romance.

According to Justin Furstenfeld’s recent interview with Blast Magazine, Blue October’s non-inclusion on the first two soundtracks might have a little something to do with the suits.

“Me and Stephenie Meyer are great friends,” Furstenfeld said. “I hate her camp, but I love her. Stephenie Meyer had the balls to take me to dinner…she said, ‘I wanna put your songs in my movies…’ and I was like, ‘Wow. That’s my dream — let’s do it.’ First movie comes out, no song. Second movie comes out, no song. Her management was like, ‘Everything we told you was a lie.’”

Pretty harsh suggestion there, huh?

At this point, no official track list for The Twilight Saga: Eclipse has been announced, so it could still be that soundtrack organizer Alexandra Patsavas was planning all along for Eclipse to host Blue October’s music . . . Let’s hope so

“It was fine. I’ve worn wigs before, just not with such … I just felt such a tactile thing with Joan [that I cut my hair for the role],” she told MTV News on the red carpet of “The Runaways” premiere. “She holds all of her energy in her hands. I can be Bella without my hair, but I couldn’t play Joan without.”

And while some teenage girls would not have been too eager to chop off their locks, Stewart said she didn’t have an emotional attachment to her strands. “I think Dakota was more emotional than I was, to be honest,” she said. “She, like, almost cried when I cut my hair. It was something I needed to do. I needed to feel the sweat coming down my face and, like, I needed to be able to touch it. I just needed to do it.”

Alex Meraz was in Australia as part of the Supernova Convention. The brand new fansite, The Meraz Effect, has a rundown of Alex’s Q & A on both days that he appeared. Here’s a tidbit from day 1:

~Alex believes he walks a fine line when it comes to representing Native Americans. He says you have to be careful how you represent them.

~Julia got sick of the wolfboys continuously goofing around on set – which helped her look convincing as Leah on screen.

~His brother’s comic books were part of his inspiration for his artwork.

~If the wolfpack were superheroes, Kiowa would be the villain and his power would be height, Bronson’s power would be the ability to laugh, Chaske would have the power to fly, and Alex would have the power of speed.

~FOUR TO THE FLOOR and ON THE RUN not going to be seen anytime soon. FOUR TO THE FLOOR is being edited. ON THE RUN producers haven’t gotten back to him since casting.

~In New Moon when Paul says sorry – that was all Alex! He thought it would be weird if he just walked into Emily’s place and didn’t say anything or acknowledge Bella right after trying to attack her. Kristen backed Alex up and he got to say his line. Plus, this was his favorite scene.

Billy Burke tweeted the other day about having a new website and seeing if he could promote a music project by not going through the (frankly in our opinion antiquated) record label system. Well, by all accounts it is a wild hit. We think the number of people hitting the site as it launched even surprised Billy. If you follow Billy on Twitter and in interviews, you know that he is a guy that doesn’t got surprised easily.

In the welcome message of his new site, Billy talks about his acting and unfortunately his much delayed music career. He also waxes on as he reminisces about the Seattle music scene of the early 1990’s when grunge was coming into its heyday and Kurt Cobain and Nirvana were leading the charge out of the bubblegum 1980’s. Billy then sums it all up by saying:

“It’s been 19 years since the Caddy sputtered into Hollywood, low on oil with a driver even lower on outlook. In those years and throughout his sometimes rosy, sometimes less than stellar career as a film and TV actor, that “driver” has continued to write songs. Songs that reflect the ongoing experience of never knowing. Songs that he hopes might speak to those with similar presentiments and with any luck, those who just dig some music.

So here, on the precipice of two decades into what was always intended to be a “duel career”, I am about to share with you what was supposed to be the FIRST half, but has now become the second…

With the exception of a couple of very special guest musicians whom I’m beyond elated to have coming in, initial tracking for my first LP is now complete. We’ve got some mixing and mastering yet to do but we’re almost there. It has been such a… treat for me to be able to work with the caliber of artists we’ve gathered to make this thing happen. Much credit and my ongoing gratitude goes to producer David Darling who saw my vision and fearlessly brought it to life as no one before ever has. I’m not gonna put any useless preconceptions out there and tell you what “kind” of music it is or who you might compare it to so…

We’re just gonna give away one of the tracks for FREE. Give it a listen. Decide for yourself. To be honest, I’m not sure how long the “freebie” will be available as I’ve gotten quite a bit of resistance to this idea, (Whatev. It’s my music, I’ll do what I want with it) so… GET ON THE LIST AND GET IT NOW. As soon as it’s ready, you’ll be emailed a copy.

In addition to the album, we’ve got some other good shit in store for the early subscribers in the months ahead. As we work out the details, you’ll be informed on how to get in on it. Don’t be shy. Leave a comment, question or unsolicited rant. I’ll be as diligent as I possibly can in responding to everyone …

At the risk of sounding all squishy and sentimental, this venture has been a long time coming for me, so I really would like to thank you all in advance for coming along…”

Don’t worry, Billy. It’s not too “squishy and sentimental” even if you are currently sporting a fine set of fully polished acrylics!  We’ll be downloading and giving the music a try. Rock on!

In the movie K-11, Kristen Stewart could get to work with two people she’s already really close to: Twilight co-star Nikki Reed – who’s slated to play the role of Mousey – and mom Jules Mann-Stewart.

“She’s a really well-known script supervisor and she’s co-written this drama ‘K-11,’ which she’ll direct and I will be in,” Kristen dishes.

How would you feel about taking cues from your mom while on the job? Naturally, Kristen has some qualms, but overall she’s more stoked than worried.

“If she called me right now and said, ‘We’re making the movie,’ I would be really excited. I guess my question is, ‘How would it be to work with a parent?’ We’re really close and then, at the same time, we’re creatively very different. But, I think it would be cool if it happens.”

As for her career, Kristen says her parents pretty much give her the freedom to make her own decisions. “It was like a slow wearing down of like, ‘Okay, Kristen’s going to do what she’s going to do. She’s just going to do these movies.’ Not that they were against it … I sort of didn’t care anymore. I was like, ‘Are you guys cool with this?’”

Toms Shoes, the company that donates one pair of shoes to needy children around the globe for every pair of shoes they sell, asked friends to go barefoot on the beach to raise awareness for the cause.

On Thursday, Toms founder Blake Mycoskie left his slip-ons at home to mark the third year of One Day Without Shoes and asked friends, including actresses Olivia Wilde (“House”) and Julia Jones (“The Twilight Saga: Eclipse”), to shed their heels at Axe restaurant and walk down Abbot Kinney to his sister Paige’s Aviator Nationboutique. The point is to drive home the message of what it would be like to spend a day barefoot as many people around the world do when they lack the means to purchase a pair.

According to Toms’ website, more than a quarter of a million people participated in 1,600 One Day Without Shoes events around the world, including the one here.

Mycoskie had biked to the office that morning wearing no shoes and had cut his foot within the first 45 minutes. “One Day without Shoes is to realize the importance of going without,” he said.

“It feels great to go without shoes, but it’s only for a day,” said Wilde, who’s about to start shooting “Cowboys and Aliens” with Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford. “It’s a brilliant way to raise awareness of children in developing countries and put yourself in someone’s shoes for a few hours.”

And what do you like in Twilight’s Edward?

I loved the second book much more than the first, that’s when I first connected with the charac ter. You can be young or old, when you fall in love with some one at first you start to idolize her, then you put her on a pedestal, then the other is a mirror. But after a while, you see your faults in this mirror and the more you see them, the less you can bear it and in the end you destroy the love, saying you don’t need this. This is real, I can tell you that. It’s strange that a cheesy book for girls like this brought me to fame, but it happened and I won’t protest.

You became a sex symbol since then, and it’s not easy to find your soul mate now, even if you believe in them.

I’d like to believe that but I would be in trouble if I found her so soon, because I’m not mature enough so I’d probably screw up. And that other thing, being a sex symbol, no one should envy me, because 14 year old little girls admire me, it’s strange for me too. If I think about the fact that 2 years ago I couldn’t even get a date, and now every one is obsessed with me…strange.

If you gave up acting so easily, then why did you become an actor?

Accidentally. It was never in my blood, I didn’t go to acting class in school. I fell into acting because that girl I was obsessed with was there and they let me be there around the stage. They were rehearsing a musical and one day I thought that it’d be great to play the lead. I never sang before an audience but I went to the casting and although I didn’t get the role, I debuted as a Cuban dancer. Then the play was done and the good actors went away, then Thorn ton Wilder’s Our Town was chosen as the next play. And I was the only tall guy who seemed right for the role. After the premier, an agent came up to me and signed me. That agent is the reason why I had a role in Vanity Fair with Reese Witherspoon, then I got into Harry Potter. While I was doing these, I ran out of time to go to
university so I started calling myself an actor.

But you still haven’t moved to Holly wood, you still live in London, because they leave you alone there.

Can you still go down for a beer?

It depends on the district. London is a big enough city with enough pubs where they don’t give a damn about who I am.
You just have to find them. We went out recently with my friends and the waitress kept telling me that I looked like the guy from Twilight, asked me if I wasn’t his brother. But she never thought that I’d go to a laid-back pub like that. If some one recognizes me on the street, they usually look away; they are too shy to come up to me. Less fame would have been enough for me but that’s how it is and I look at the positives. Twilight opened the door for me to make movies like Remember Me and Bel Ami. I’m constantly working and the price is the crazi ness surrounds me every where I got. But every actor wants to be on screen, and if they get roles that make their hearts beat faster then it’s really worth it.

Does the hysteria around you have any effect on you?

Lon don is so different from America. I can live a normal life there and the fuss around me seems like a night mare
there. Some times I think it was just a dream and then I should quickly let it go. I can just go from one movie to the other, as if nothing happened. If I don’t care about it, then it’s simply not there.

You said it’s better to let it go?

Yes, it’s better to forget that I’m famous and act like I’m blind, I confess I’m still trying to figure out what to do with this quick popularity, because I’m scared that it will stop me from improving. Not just as an actor but as a person too. But maybe I’m wrong.

I can hear the question marks in your voice. Or am I wrong?

You hear the uncertainty, which is different from losing focus. Being uncertain is good, because you realize that you are not as stable as you thought you were and you start trying to find things to hold on to. At least this is what I realized, as my own psychologist. Those people who sit in their offices have every thing in their lives only for get to actually live. I rather vote for life and that means uncertainty at times.

Why?

Because every day has a lot more in it than what we realize. We don’t use our lives enough emo tionally. We don’t go deep enough.

I get the impression that they sent this fame thing to the wrong address.

Fame is a mythical thing, a strange value. You don’t need qualification, money, you can be born into it. Some people think that if you are famous, you have every thing that’s important in life. That’s under stand able even if I don’t agree with it, because there is no other choice to break out. My generation doesn’t want to hear that the only way to earn money is working until you are 70, if you are
lucky you don’t work for pennies, you can be a boss before retirement. My generation is greedy, people want to be rich and famous at 20. Every thing and now, that’s the key.

Not for you?

I don’t know. I would see it differently if I wasn’t famous. I never touched tabloids before and now…What they write about people, they totally destroy the performance of the actors. This whole celebrity culture is disgusting. The more famous you are, the more
tabloids write about you, the less people want to know about your movies, because what they see in the tabloids is more interesting than what they see on the screen. Actors lost that mystique. You can peek into their bed rooms, you can analyze their relationships, you can make fun of their pain, so they are not interesting on the screen any more if their lives are open books. I find it unbearable.

There’s this rumour about you that you and Kristen Stew art will be engaged soon.

This engagement thing is total bullshit, I don’t even know where it comes from. Kristen is my friend, I really like to work with her. She’s more mature than her age, a real professional, I couldn’t wish a better partner, because she makes my every move, every
sentence authentic. A big franchise like Twilight is a scary thing, because it put me on the map and I’ll have it for my whole life. So it’s important to get along with my partner, and Kris ten is the perfect partner. She sets the bar high, so I must deliver too.

But you didn’t answer my question, which means…

My only weapon for self-defense is to not care about the rumours. I concentrate on my work and on the positive sides of fame. You can’t even imagine how big it is that I don’t have to go to castings any more. They are the worst. Especially when you don’t
get the job in the end. Now I have lots of people around me, looking out for me, asking me if the script is ok with me. People say hi to me, smile at me on the street, come up to me to shake my hand. Lots of people stop me just to congrat ulate. That’s when I realize that there are so many good, nice, normal people. And they are the majority.

You still have to walk around with body guards. Does that bother you?

I only have the body guards when I’m shooting or when I have to go to some where. As long as they don’t know where I live there’s no problem. When there’s a crowd around me, that bothers me. Because when I’m shooting I wake up at 5am and by the time I
get home I don’t have the energy for any thing. I fall into the bed. I don’t really know normal life nowadays, but I can tell you which hotel has the nicer bathroom.

Sounds like you don’t have a life apart from acting.

There’s some thing in that. I have a boring life here and there, I read scripts, watch movies. And wait for the phone to ring. Once I say yes to some thing I give 100%. And since I really don’t have much of a life apart from my job, I get so lost in my actual roles, that I for get every thing out side of that. That’s how I create real characters on the screen.

A lot of people are very excited about The Last Airbender. How did that shoot go?
We shot for two weeks in Greenland, which was freezing — freezing — but beautiful. You really can’t fake that. I did a month and a half of kung fu training in Los Angeles. And then I flew out to Philadelphia for another half a month of training, rehearsals, fittings and tests and everything. We were actually in Greenland for our first two weeks of shooting, then flew back to Philly for the rest of the film. It was a great experience.

Probably even more people are excited about The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. What will we see of Jasper in the next film?
We get to see a lot of his back story, which is what I’m really excited about putting out there. It’s back in the Civil War era. You see him turned into a vampire. Back when he was a human he was in the Civil War and he runs across these vampires — three beautiful women vampires — in the desert, and they turn him. And he becomes a warrior who trains these vampire armies. We see a lot of that and see a lot of Jasper’s back story, which is really cool because in Twilight and The Twilight Saga: New Moon you could kind of see that he’s still dealing with this new way of life, especially now that his adoptive brother (Robert Pattinson) is dating a human (Kristen Stewart). And in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse you get to see why.

You seem so busy with the acting right now. You’ve produced Girlfriend and are trying to get that on the festival circuit in order to find a distributor. How concerned do you get about leaving enough time to devote to your band, 100 Monkeys?
It all depends on how many hours of sleep you want to get a night (laughs). When we did Eclipse I was filming it in Vancouver and flying to Boston on my off days to shoot Girlfriend, as well as mixing my band’s album and recording vocals for it. So I was doing three or four different things at once. It was two months of doing that. It was difficult, but at the end of the day you just sleep a little less and drink a lot more coffee.

“Twilight” regular Ashley Greene has joined the Weinstein Co. comedy “Butter.”Jennifer Garner is producing and starring in the film, based on the Black List screenplay written by newcomer Jason Micallef. Alissa Phillips and Mike De Luca are also producing the project, which director Jim Field Smith (“She’s Out of My League”) will begin filming next week in Louisiana.

“Butter” follows a number of competitive characters in a small Midwestern town as they become entwined in an annual butter-carving contest. Greene will play a rebellious high school teenager named Kaitlen Pickler. (Do I smell a sequel built around anaerobic fermentation?)

Repped by Innovative Artists and McKeon-Myones Entertainment, Greene just wrapped shooting on the Warner Bros./Dark Castle thriller “The Apparition.” She will next reprise her role as Alice Cullen in “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse,” which Summit releases in June, and she stars in the indie drama “Skateland,” which had its world premiere at Sundance in January.

As time grows closer, we are seeing more  sneak peeks, interviews and merchandise appear for The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. This time it’s hottie Jackson Rathbone who plays human blood thirsty Jasper Hale in the saga. Here Jackson tells about Jasper’s back story.

PW: So is it difficult then to play Jasper over the course of five films?

Jackson: The thing I like about Jasper’s arc is that it’s very developed — you don’t know much about him in the first film. He’s always in pain but don’t know why, until the second film, when you realize that he’s the newest to the family and he’s basically dying of hunger. It’s very difficult to live that vampryic lifestyle. So he’s having trouble adjusting. In the third film, we get to see Jasper’s backstory – see who he used to be and why he’s having such a hard time transitioning.

PW: So “Eclipse” will flashback to his time in The Civil War?

Jackson: Yeah. We do a little segue/backstory in “Eclipse”,when he was turned during the Civil War. We get to see his more aggressive tendencies. When you’re first turned into a vampire, that’s when you’re at your most ravenous, most vicious – so you see Jasper go through that. It was a lot of fun to bring out the darker side of Jasper.

When Jacob first shows off his tattoo, it is up at the top of his shoulder. Then when he is in the forest at the end with Bella and Edward, his tattoo is about 2 inches further down his arm.

Bella goes to Italy to save Edward. Alice drops Bella off - when Bella gets out of the car to ask where Edward will be, first you see Bella in front of the car door, then she is suddenly behind the car door

Hold on to your seats.  There might be a light at the end of the longest tunnel in history!  Not only has Bill Condon emerged as the leading man for the director of Breaking Dawn, it looks like we will possibly have two films shot back to back.

Bill Condon has emerged as the number one choice to direct the final two installments of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, I’m told. Summit Entertainment hasn’t signed him, but I’m told that after several strong meetings, they are negotiating. Condon was among a list of A-list directors approved by Summit and Twilight author Stephenie Meyer. That  list included Gus Van Sant, Sofia Coppola and Fernando Meirelles. Shooting will begin in the fall, and I heard the plan is to shoot two films back to back. That was just what my colleague Nikki Finkereported. She also wrote that Summit was looking for a big director and Dreamgirls andGods and Monstersdirector Condon certainly fits that bill. Presumably, Condon would do this as his next project, and push back the picture he had planned to direct.

The Twilight job came open when The Twilight Saga: New Moondirector Chris Weitz decided not to reprise, despite directing a film that grossed $707 million worldwide., almost doubling the Catherine Hardwicke-directed original’s $385 million worldwide gross. New Moon also broke Twilight’s opening weekend DVD sale record when it moved 4 million units to the 3.8 million of the original Twilight,which went on to become 2009’s top DVD title with 9.2 million sales. David Slade helmed the upcoming installment, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, which Summit releases June 30. Hollywood hasn’t given Summit its due on theTwilightpictures. Like them or not, these pictures have been better than they had to be, given the ferocious fan base. They are exciting movies with a fresh contemporary feel. That Summit keeps pushing the envelope, where director quality is concerned, says a lot in how to keep franchises engaging for fans–something that studios now readying prequels, four-quels and reboots, would be smart to emulate.

Popwrap talked to Jackson rathbone about his horror flick Dread hitting DVD, but the conversation also drifted to his music and the Twilight movies.

“As someone who has been watching horror movies for the better part of his 28 years, I can’t believe I’m about to write this sentence: I found the ending of “Dread” to be so unsettling, shocking and upsetting that I nearly vomited because of the film’s last act.

Now, that will cause one of two reactions for you: either “Dread” will be bumped to the top of your NetFlix queue or removed completely. If it’s the latter, I understand, but feel bad since you will miss one of the more intriguing movies that’s ever been included in the AfterDark Horror Fest.

I recently caught up with “Dread” star Jackson Rathbone and found out that my visceral reaction is exactly why he signed up for the film in the first place. We also talked about more palatable subjects, like what “Twilight” fans can expect to see in this summer’s hotly anticipated installment “Eclipse”!

PopWrap: I’m not going to lie, this film actually made me physically ill at the end.
Jackson Rathbone: Oh, excellent. That’s what I was hoping for!

PW: When did you know “Dread” had the ability to evoke this kind of response?
Jackson: I gave the script to a friend and he said that almost made him wretch, and that’s when I knew I had to make this movie.”

On April 13, author Stephenie Meyer will publish the paperback edition of her best-selling sci-fi book “The Host.” Meyer, the author behind the “Twilight” series of books, will include in the coming version of “The Host” a never-before seen “bonus chapter.” “The Host,” Meyer’s first novel for adults, tells the story of body-snatching aliens who invade the earth. One of these extraterrestrials, who goes by the name Wanda, develops an unusual relationship with Melanie, the woman whose body she has taken over.

Here is an exclusive mini-excerpt from the paperback:

I’m all alone.

It’s dark. I can’t remember where I am … or why I’m here. It’s wrong that I’m alone. Where is Wanda? I can’t see to look for her. I can’t remember how to call for her. It’s silent. I can’t feel her. I can’t feel our body.

Panic starts to set in as I wait for her voice. For her to say my name. To tell me where we are. To open my eyes so we can see. I need to hear her voice — my voice, in my softest tone, my gentlest inflection.

I wait, but there is nothing. Just me and the dark.

The panic gets worse as I try to remember. Did she shut me out again? That happened once, I know, but I don’t remember it. I don’t think it was like this, panicking in the dark. It was just nothing then.

And I don’t think Wanda would do that. Because we love each other. I remember we said that. Just before …something. I try to dredge up the memory.

We were saying we loved each other.… We were saying …

Good-bye.

Film has an interview with Melissa Rosenberg where she discusses writing each of the Twilight movies, Dexter, and writing to meet a rating.

“LL: If an adaptation felt to you like an R rating, but the studio wanted you to bring it in at a PG-13, would that be doable?

MR: Oh yeah. It’s completely doable. You don’t sacrifice story by cutting language. Nor do you sacrifice story by showing less blood or gore, or whatever it is that’s bringing you to an R rating. It doesn’t hurt it. When Dexter was aired on CBS they had to re-cut some of it for network television and all they had to do was cut some language. There’s more blood and gore in an episode of C.S.I., though of course Dexter is more disturbing. Not because of what you see, but because of what’s implied. I don’t think you take away from suspense or character by altering a few things like that.

LL: Having read Breaking Dawn, where things get ratcheted up a notch, do you still go for that PG-13 rating?

MR: Oh yeah, absolutely. That’s your audience. In this series you don’t sacrifice anything. There are some movies that wouldn’t play at PG-13, like The Hangover, but this is just not one of them for me. Again, if you’re capturing character, emotion, and emotional journey, you’re OK.”

“An American Girl,” to be directed by James Wood, is about a woman who after high school finds herself wasting her life drinking and drugging in a small town in Indiana. During one particular night of boozing, she has sex with a guy in a quarry. “She gets taped doing it on somebody’s phone and in a small town,” says Woods, “her reputation is ruined and on a drunken whim, she joins the Marines.”

Stewart’s character sobers up, learns a number of important life lessons as a Marine, and even returns to her hometown, where she rebuilds her life.

This a must read Volturi fans!!! Cameron Bright who plays Alec, brother to Jane in New Moon & Eclipse has some fun with InMovies:

Could you tell me a bit about your role in Eclipse?

My role in Eclipse? I can’t really tell you what I do or anything like that. I mean, as far as who I am, you guys know that. I play Alec. He’s one of the Volturi from New Moon and all that kind of stuff. But
you know, it’s pretty secretive, so I’m not going to be telling you
exactly what I do, ‘cause I want you guys to go and watch the movie.

Well, I’ll ask you something else then. Twilight actors often talk about feeling like you’re all part of one big family. Could you speak to that?

I wouldn’t say one big family. I’d say more like partners in crime, friends, you know. Oh, we are great buds. I’d say I’m friends with a lot of them and I’m glad I’ve met a lot of the people from this movie, but
you know, technically they’re just colleagues, right? They’re doing the
same thing as me, and that’s what I like about them.

I understand that your character has some special powers, and it seems to me like it might be a challenge to portray something that no one can see. I wonder how do you act something that isn’t visually
obvious?

If anything I cut people’s senses off, so you know, I’m the kind of guy that you don’t want to make pissed off because you won’t know what’s coming to you. But you know, it’s also a cool power when you think
about it. You know, it’s a different one. I’m not the normal, like, read
minds or anything like that. I cut off people’s senses. You want to be
able to hear? No, no you can’t. You know, that kind of stuff.

Was it challenging to get into that, into portraying that power?

Well, so far I’ve never had to use my power, so I can’t say it was hard. I can’t say it was easy, because I haven’t had to do it. But, as in portraying the character? It wasn’t hard at all, it was fun, you
know, because you get to do whatever you want with it. You know, a
book’s a book. You can picture the person in your head, but as soon as
you turn it into a movie, it’s a totally different world, because you’re
seeing it come to life. As far as my character goes, the books never
really bar him down to a certain person, you know? Like they never said
‘This is how he acts, this is what he does, yadda yadda yadda’. But it
was when I got to film in the movie they said ‘Fave fun! You’re a
vampire now. Be a vampire.’ And, nobody knows how to play a vampire,
because, has anybody met a vampire before? No. But, you know, that’s
what I like about it, [that] I can do whatever I want with it.

So how did you prepare?

I didn’t. I just showed up and did whatever I wanted.

Did you have any inspiration?

No. Preparation for me on set is fairly easy. I don’t really go through a lot of things, and I don’t do a lot of exercises with my lines or anything. I show up and I just get it done. I don’t know, it’s hard
to explain. You know, I’ve been doing it for two thirds of my life, and
it’s just what I do now. I know when I, I know how to, what’s the word? I
know how to analyze a character and just…it’s one of those things that
you just do. Hard to explain.

Okay. Fair enough. So…

But, everybody does it differently, and I just, I just show up on set and you know, the director will say, ‘This is how I want you to see it, this is how…’ You know, it’s a process. Like, you don’t just step into
the room and automatically do it. There’s so many things that go into it
and you’re playing off people and luckily in this movie, I’m playing
off people like Dakota Fanning and Michael Sheen…[and] they just make it
so much more easier. And the people on set are so nice, and a lot of
them are friends. Like Daniel I knew before, and Chris is great. All
they do is joke around on set. I mean you’re joking around, it’s a job.
It’s not the set of this huge movie, it’s just another set. You show up,
you have fun, you do what you do, and that’s how I see it.

Who’s your favourite Twilight character?

Twilight character period? I don’t know. To be honest with you, from seeing New Moon, I like Michael Sheen’s character. That’s because he’s nuts, and I like crazy people. Crazy people are some of the best in the
world. You know, you have the most interesting conversations with crazy
people. And, so his character I really like.

If you were Bella, who would you choose?

If I was Bella, who would I choose? Oh, I’m gonna have to say I’d go with the body, most likely. For me I’d go with the body, so it’d be Jacob.

You’re a man after my own heart. Me too.

I know you did a lot of work with Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson. Could you feel any chemistry on set between the two of them?

No. I mean, there’s always chemistry between any guy and girl who are friends, but as far as the chemistry between those two? I had so many people asking that…No! Personally it’s not my business so I stayed out
of it. They said ‘Oh, don’t say anything about Rob and Kristen’, and I
basically told them straight out, ‘You don’t have to worry about me
talking about other people’s lives, I’ll talk about mine but I won’t
talk about anybody else’s, you know?’ But as far as them, they looked
like friends, and that’s all that I can say. They joked around just as
much as anybody else did, and we all had fun.

Were you intimidated by Taylor Lautner’s pecs?

Was I…pardon me? By his pecs? (laughs) Oh no. Vampires aren’t supposed to look nice. They’re supposed to look mean. You know what I said? ‘Cause I’m friends with all the wolf pack, and whenever we go to
Twilight conventions that’s what they always say—all the werewolves are
like ‘You know what? We have the body.’ But at the end of the day, dogs
are a man’s best friend, and diamonds are a girl’s best friend.

You might remember last week that I posted a cartoon of Rob by Mexican magazine Quién. Here’s the complete article available on their latest issue (April 2nd), titled 10 Things You Didin’t Know About Robert Pattinson. That explains the cartoon and all the items in it!
Here’s the translation of the article. There are some tiny inaccuracies, but I’ll point them out for you, nothing too big.

1. He modeled for a while and in 2007 he was part of Hackett’s Fall capmpaign.

2. He’s afraid of the dark and can’t sleep without a night light.

3. He plays the piano and the guitar. He played two songs for the Twilight soundtrack, but his name is not in the credits. (Yes, it is! But only one of his two songs is on the actual album)

4. He loves hamburgers and Coke, and if he’s having a bad day, he asks a fan out. (Um, we wish! He only asked a fan out once, in Spain, before he became a huge star, while he was filming Little Ashes. He’s never done it again, he thinks he bores girls. As if!).

5. He prefers public transportation or walking, because he hates driving and even dislikes taxis.

6. He doesn’t play soccer, but he’s a fan of Arsenal.

7. When he was 12 his sisters used to dress him up as a girl and introduce him as Claudia.

8. He misses open mic sessions with his friends (the magazine actually says it’s karaoke, but it’s actually open mic nights at bars). But he’s so afraid to do it again because he doesn’t want to end up on Youtube.

9. He said that the most important being in his life is his dog Patty, a westy that has been with him for years. (Patty died over a yearago, but we only learned that recently).

The 23-year-old actor has become a global superstar after playing brooding vampire Edward Cullen in Twilight, but his latest film is indie flick Remember Me, which he revealed stood out from the hundreds of roles he has been offered.

Robert said: “I never like anything, so it’s quite easy to decide what to do – I’ve never felt any pressure to do anything, particularly. Even when we were shooting it [Remember Me] I never thought about the box office.”

He added: “I had read tonnes and tonnes of scripts over the summer after I did Twilight, I mean hundreds, and everything seemed exactly the same.

“But this one, the way the dialogue was written, it just seemed much more naturalistic than most things.

“It’s not really a feel-good movie. They don’t make movies like it anymore, I think that’s how I kind of choose stuff, that’s the only criteria I have. There seems to be a gap in the market for something and I just try and do that.”

Robert hopes his Twilight fans like the new film but revealed he would never appear in a film simply to please an audience.

He said: “Obviously you hope people like things but I think if you start doing stuff to please a certain audience then you’re going in the wrong direction. I mean, you don’t even know the people you’re trying to please, especially if you’re trying to please whole swathes of people.

“I hope they like it.”

Remember Me is released on Friday April 2.
