The Twilight World

Verdi-Corrente Prods. has signed ”Twilight” actor Peter Facinelli to star in two features helmed by Michael Corrente.

The drama-comedy ”Loosies” is in pre-production with production slated for mid-summer.

Biopic ”Paz,” based on the life of boxer Vinnie Pazienza, will launch early next year. Facinelli and Chad A. Verdi will co-produce both films.

Facinelli played Carlisle Cullen in the first two ”Twilight” installments and will return in the third pic, ”Eclipse,” set for a June release. He also stars opposite Edie Falco in Showtime’s dark comedy series ”Nurse Jackie.”

Facinelli penned ”Loosies,” in which he’ll play a successful pickpocket in the New York living the outlaw lifestyle until confronted with an old one-night stand who tells him that she is pregnant with his child.

”Paz” centers on Pazienza’s comeback from a near-fatal car accidentk. Told by doctors he would never walk again, Pazienza trained in secret and was able to re-enter the ring.

Corrente’s producing both films and Chad A. Verdi’s is co-producer. Corrente’s credits include ”American Buffalo,” ”Outside Providence” and ”Brooklyn Rules.”

Call it the Facinelli Christmas Glow — which sparks from a love for the holidays that they couple have handed down to their daughters Luca Bella, 12, Lola Ray, 7, and Fiona Eve, 3. “Holidays were always important to my family,” says Peter, 36, who wants to pass down the same lesson that he learned from his Italian immigrant parents about the Christmas season. “It’s about being together and celebrating.”

Lately quality time for the Facinelli Five has been fleeting: The New Moon actor spent this past fall shuttling between the Vancouver set of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse — the third chapter of the wildly popular vampire series, due out next summer — and New York City, where he films his hit TV dramaNurse Jackie opposite Edie Falco.

In the meantime, Jennie, 37, has been holding down the fort at their L.A. home, juggling their daughters’ car-pool schedules and her gig on the CW’s 90210. But this year the holidays have reunited the entire clan in their own L.A. zip code, where Peter’s main focus is recruiting his daughters to help outfit their colonial-style home with decorations ranging from Santa pillows to singing Christmas trees.
