“Q: What is the best advice that your father ever gave you, as an actor, and the best advice he ever gave you, from a directorial standpoint?
Bryce: The best advice he gave me was that, if there was anything else I could do, to do that. You need to not be able to do anything else, to be in this business. If you have other options, in those unemployed moments, those other options will take precedent. From a directorial standpoint, I think it’s really Freudian, the amount of trust I have in filmmakers because I have such a trusting relationship with my dad. He’s such a mentor to me. He has never let me down, as a person. He just hasn’t. And, that’s translated for me with filmmakers.
I have an association that director means total authority. Director means they will never let you down. Director means just trust them and fulfill their vision, and know that the story will be told in its best incarnation. I’ve always felt really lucky to get to work with really great filmmakers. For me, the whole objective is just to hopefully be of service to what they want. In his persona, that’s been the advice that he hasn’t directly said, but I’ve understood. ”

INTERVJU MED ROBERT PATTINSON
What scene in New Moon left a nice memory to you?
Probably the Volterra scene, where I have to step into the light. There were many extras and many fans there. Some fans traveled across the world to be there.
Why was it so important?
I felt a huge sense of responsibility, being in front of so many that are so obsessed with this story. It was nerve wrecking, but I never felt closer to the character before this.
What about the scene where your character leaves Bella?
It was strange, but the fans helped.To them, Bella and Edward’s relationship is ideal. You can feel the weight of the pressure.
Is there anything you have in common with Edward?
I guess. Sometimes I can be very dumb too. And I’m very possessive and obsessive like him.
What are you obsessed about?
Um…
Your privacy?
In a way, yes (laughs). How am I obsessive? I guess I have very specific ideas as how I want my job to be, and how I want to be seen. I don’t pay attention to anyone, and I don’t have a publicist for that reason. I can’t stand the idea of someone telling me what to do. I’m very meticulous, and I want to be able to control everything on my own.
Have you gotten used to the Twilight phenomenon yet?
I’m still struggling, but I’m also more calm now. Filming is now scary, because I love the people I work with and I rarely have a problem with the script.
Do you like that your fans want to know more about you?
I think the best way to do that is through my work. Interviews are a risky thing because nobody is that interesting. But it’s also the fact that I still don’t know who I am. I don’t want to be just a character in society.
What’s the weirdest experience you’ve had with a fan?
There’s so many to tell, though now there’s fewer experiences because we have security now. One day a 90 year old woman came up to me, and it’s funny because she said the same things that 12 year olds say to me (laughs),
Has your life style changed a lot? How do you feel when you finally have the chance to leave the studio and live real life?
That is the problem. I never leave the set. Since January 14th I’ve been to three different movie sets. I only had 3 days off. I can’t really say if my life has changed that much because I’m still inside a studio, and I will be next year too. But I feel like I’m the same person. Don’t know if that’s a good thing.
And have you felt any changes in your career since Twilight?
I don’t know yet. I did a new movie that comes out next year and I’ve been offered jobs that used to only dream about. But it’s scary. I don’t have to audition anymore, but I don’t want to be in movies just for the sake of it.
Is it really scary?
Yes. You always wonder if you’ll be part of a super production, because without a movie like this, you won’t find the jobs that you’re looking for. And then after making a movie like that, that has a very specific audience, people want to tell you how to reach the audience from then on. Thanks to that, there’s a lot of limitations. When nobody watches your movies, you have the luxury of doing whatever you want. There’s pros and cons in both sides of the situation.
Are you afraid that the success you have now thanks to Twilight will fade one day?
I’m working so much that it’s like I’m living in an alternate reality. The shooting schedules are so long that I feel like I’m a doctor. And the doctors I talk to about this say the same thing. It’s like you don’t know what’s going on outside of work because it keeps you away from your family and friends.
Love is the main subject in this movie. How do you not fall in love as much as you do in film?
Easy. I have to remind myself I get paid to do this (laughs). And with that, there’s plenty of other connotations. That’s one of the main differences.
Are you a very romantic person?
When I saw the movie Titanic I didn’t think it was a movie just for women. The only romantic thing I ever did was hide flowers for a girl, she thought it was another guy and he didn’t correct her, so that didn’t turn out very good for me (he can’t stop laughing now).
Have you ever had your heart broken like Bella?
(he takes him time) I’m trying to think of a stupid response, but no (laughs). I can’t think of anything. No, I haven’t had my heart broken.
INTERVJU MED NIKKI REED
Nikki Reed: It might take a couple of years before I can properly reflect on this whole thing. It’s been really crazy and everything is moving so fast that it’s hard to see it from an outside perspective...
I’m not a household name, I don’t think that I am, but if you mention the name Twilight now there’s an instant connection between you and whoever the person is in the world because they know what it is. And so it’s given me an opportunity to meet really cool actors that I idolize. You can say you’re in Twilight and they sort of get that maybe you get their insane world for half a second. And the cool thing is a lot of these actors have kids that love Twilight much more than they love their parents’ work because their parents are just their parents. But some really famous woman sent a letter to Rob saying, “Hey, will you sign something for my children? I’ve sent you some script covers to sign.” It’s just really incredible...
And it’s also weird to be so focused on what you look like physically. I’ve never worked on a film where I’m as concerned with things that seem so superficial. But how we look is really important, especially when you’re playing these characters that people really feel a connection with. They feel like they know them and not just because they’ve seen them on the big screen, but before that. So you want to make sure you look right and it’s really frustrating because sometimes it feels like it’s out of your control. And it’s never gonna be perfect and the word perfect seems to me like a very common word that’s used when describing us and that throws you off as well. It’s like, “What is perfect?” I don’t know.
Do you feel like there’s a similarity to what you went through with Thirteen?
There is a similarity, there is a connection, there totally is. That was like a cult phenome non, obviously on a much smaller scale, but that was still something that made people want to know the person, want to connect with the person, want to ask the person questions. There were no boundaries with that movie, just like I feel there are no bound aries with this.
What can you tell us about K-11?
I just don’t know what’s happening with it, but Jules Stewart, Kristen [Stewart]’s mom is directing. She wrote it as well, with a writing partner. Kristen and I both love the project; we hope it gets made, obviously. But other than that I don’t know what else to say ’cause we don’t have a start date and we’re kind of all wrapped up in this, she and I. So at least I know when my schedule is free, maybe hers will be free. We sort of know where the other one’s at. But we want to make it. It’s a great project and it’s an opportunity for me to play something that couldn’t be farther away from my situation, and people will no longer have the opportunity to say she’s playing herself. Even though I couldn’t have lived on my own, paid rent, tried to finish high school, without even having a dri ver’s license, I couldn’t have done all those things if I was this crazy insane lunatic, which is the character I keep playing. Except in Twilight, which is also another great reason I’m happy to be a part of this, because of the mass exposure and the difference in what I’m playing. K-11 I get to play a role so different than myself and I always play roles different than myself. In fact, Ros alie is the closest thing I’ve ever played to myself. It depends on how you look at her, but in terms of how protective she is over her family, and how loving she is, and not in a condescend ing way, in a mature, wise way, how she can look at the big picture and see what’s best for her and her family. And I feel like that’s the role I’ve sort of always played.ECLIPSE BLIR MÖRK

ARTIKEL OM ASHLEY GREENE
”Instantly we have this fan base, instantly we have these careers and people know who we are,” says the actress, 22, who likened the rush to ”instant happiness. … People now actually care about what projects I’m in.”
Greene was 17 when she moved to Los Angeles from Florida after graduating high school a semester early, and now, after being cast as prescient vampire Alice Cullen in the film adaptation of Stephenie Meyer’s vampire romance series, Greene’s visibility has skyrocketed. In addition to the release of Twilight: Eclipse June 30, Greene has two additional wrapped films under her belt.
ust like the first two Twilight movies, Eclipse has a different director, David Slade, who Greene says is ”definitely different from Catherine (Hardwicke) and Chris (Weitz). He is technically the most specific director that I’ve ever worked with.” Greene says fans of the franchise should expect Slade to ”bring a darker element to this film. He seems to kind of specialize in that.”
That darker side includes Alice as well. ”In (Twilight), you see that quality about Alice that makes her so lovable is she’s so positive and upbeat. In (New Moon), you see how she takes these uncomfortable situations and she’s sassy and she brings light to a dark scene,” Greene says. ”In (Eclipse), you get to see a little bit of a darker side when her family is in danger. You get to see once again that she is an animal and she’s not human.”
As for adding non-vampire films to her résumé, Greene will be at Sundance in January for the premiere of Skateland. ”The fact that we’re going to Sundance is a validity factor for an actor doing something you’re passionate about.”
In Skateland, Greene stars as Michelle Birkam, a girl-next-door type who befriends a cool kid with a job at the local skate rink. It’s set in the 1980s, so ”I look just like my mother,” she says. ”It’s crazy!”
Greene, who filmed Skateland in between Twilight and New Moon, also has wrapped Warrior, now in post-production, which stars Twilight buddy Kellan Lutz. ”I got done with Twilight and went independent-crazy,” Greene says.
Indies aside, she just landed the lead in The Apparition, a big-budget Warner Bros. thriller being produced by The Matrix’s Joel Silver.
”To be the lead in my own box-office film is just another step,” Greene says. ”A couple of days before, I probably won’t be able to sleep, but I’m not even nervous about it now. … I’m just like one of those giddy girls who wants to make sure everything is perfect for the first day of school. I’ve already planned a week (before filming begins in Berlin) to turn off my cellphone and just focus.” And with even more screen time in New Moon, which has grossed more than $267.4 million to date, she’s familiar with the craze that comes with being in a box-office sensation.
”It’s so strange, because we spend months on set, and then it’s like, by the way, this is what’s been brewing while we’ve been working,” she says, referring to Twilight’s fearlessly devoted fan base.
”I’ve gotten asked by people to get a lock of Rob’s hair,” she says of co-star Robert Pattinson, who drives teens and older women alike wild as vampire Edward Cullen. ”I’ve even had girls come up to me and ask to smell my hair.
”I’ve gotten proposals, and I always wonder, what would (people) do if I said yes?”

BDH: It’s a really extraordinary series and obviously the franchise really reflects what Stephenie Meyer has created with a lot of integrity. She’s so involved with the movies and it is really wonderful. It’s really an incredible storytelling moment. And people are really connecting with and responding to that. So I read the books and I just did my best for the character Victoria. I just wanted to do my best not to interfere with the books.
SNMag: Did you feel pressure coming into this, with the character already being established?
BDH: Yes, of course I did. Rachelle [Lefevre] did an extraordinary job at creating Victoria and part of the joy of a franchise like this is getting to see not only the characters grow but the actors continuing to grow with the characters. That’s a lot of the joy in the Harry Potter series. Every time I see one of those movies it’s so exciting to see them because they’re all getting a little bit older and different things are happening to them. It’s like watching a TV show. You start to connect with the actors really deeply. It was really unfortunate for everybody that Rachelle left. I did feel, I don’t know if I should say a pressure, but an enormous responsibility because the fans felt really strongly about the role of Victoria and they felt a deep connection to Rachelle, which they should because she is also beautiful and talented. I really did do my best and I hope that whatever work I did can somehow honor what had been created before and what was created by Stephenie. I felt really grateful to this because Rachelle and I have connected. She’s an amazing woman and has been enormously and overwhelmingly helpful.
SNMag: What was the shooting like for you? Did you have an opportunity to hang out with the cast and bond with them?
BDH: Oh, yes, I mean they’re a very tight-knit group of people who are just wonderful. They’re incredibly authentic and none of them are getting swept up by the mania of this. They just care about each other and are protective of each other. They are just a great group of friends. I feel like all of these people would have been friends regardless. They all bonded through this amazing moment that’s happening in their lives.
