Summit Press Release

On March 23, 2009, Summit Entertainment made the official announcement concerning a few of the actors (omg the Wolf Pack!!) in New Moon.

"SUMMIT ENTERTAINMENT RUNS WITH THE WOLF PACK IN THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON
Chaske Spencer, Bronson Pelletier, Alex Meraz, Kiowa Gordon and Tyson Houseman to Star as Members of Wolf Pack

Los Angeles, CA — March 23, 2009 — Summit Entertainment announced today that Native American/First Nation actors Chaske Spencer, Bronson Pelletier, Alex Meraz, Kiowa Gordon and Tyson Houseman have signed on to star as the members of the wolf pack in THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON. In the film, the wolf pack defends humans against vampires although they have a tribal history intricately entwined with Edward Cullen and his family. The wolf pack members will join Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and fellow wolf pack member Taylor Lautner in the film directed by Chris Weitz which will be released domestically November 20, 2009.

Each member of the wolf pack is of Native decent. Spencer is Lakota (Sioux), Pelletier is Cree-Metis, Meraz is Purepecha (Tarasco), Gordon is Hualapai, and Houseman, who was discovered at an open casting call, is Cree. Casting of the wolf pack was overseen by award-winning casting director Rene Haynes who is well-known for her work on Native projects ranging from DANCES WITH WOLVES to BURY MY HEART AT WOUNDED KNEE."

Movie Poster? Really?

Okay, so I was surfing around when I found a claimed 'Official New Moon Movie Poster'. Yeah, really? Was my first thought, but then I began to look more into it. My final say in all this, is that there are a lot of really awesome fan-made posters, but nothing official has yet been released. Infact, there's quite a few posters worth posting:

The claimed poster-

Here's the other few:

Happy St. Patty's Day!

Yup, today's March 17... better known as St. Patrick's Day! <333

Hope you all have a grand, lucky-luck kind of day! xP I have a little Irish prayer here.. it's really nice:

May the road rise up to meet you.

May the wind always be at your back.

May the sun shine warm upon your face,

and rains fall soft upon your fields.

And until we meet again,

May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Happy St. Patrick's Day guys :D

Oh, That Crazy Rob Pattz

Okay, guys, it's a rare omg moment for me.. Since I love RPattz so much (sarcasm), I decided to post a very interesting article just for my favorite actor!

Thanks very much to E! Online:

Robert Pattinson's on the cover of April’s GQ looking dapper and relatively clean, if also a bit confused.

It's this state of nervous confusion, and not cleanliness ("his clothes smell like he has recently purchased them off the back of someone less fortunate than he," the writer notes), that carries over into the interview, where the actor rambles on and on.

Not that we're complaining, because he touches on just about everything you'd want to know.

So lady rumors first...

As he says, "There’s literally not a single [true] story that could be written about me." And he would know, he's up-to-date on all the Internet gossip since he loves to read about himself "out of a kind of masochistic narcissism."

According to Pattz, it's not true, then, that he's dating some Brazilian model named Annelyse ("I’ve never met her") or trying to steal Camilla Belle from a Jonas Brother ("No. I mean, yeah, yeah, I’m friends with Camilla”) or actually proposed to Kristen Stewart ("I said that in some interview, as a joke—‘Oh, I proposed to her multiple times.’ And then it gets printed: ‘On the set, he proposed multiple times.’ ").

As far as playing the moody emo-vampire Edward Cullen, he owes his initial success to Valium, which he popped before going into the audition. But after that, he read up on the Twilight world and came prepared to bring it. “If you met a guy like [Edward] in real life," he says, "you’d think he was kind of dorky." So he tried to play him more edgy and cool, if that's even possible when suffering from a sparkly skin condition.

His next movie, Little Ashes, a Spanish indie film in which he plays a young Salvador Dalí, is significantly less Twilighty, but that will probably be OK with most of his fans, given this sale: “I was kind of crossing lines of what I thought I was comfortable doing. I had to do all this naked stuff.”

Of course, that was filmed pre-Edward Cullen, and he doesn't have anything lined up after Stephenie Meyers’ tale finally comes to an end. In fact, he says he doesn't even care if it's more acting.

“I’m not massively concerned about doing lots of acting jobs,” he says. “If it all just went, right now, I’d be like, ‘All right. I don’t really care.’ That’s probably a stupid thing to say. But I don’t, really. I think it’d be much worse to do a load of stuff that’s really bad. Because then you can’t go into another career. If you’ve made an idiot out of yourself, you’re never going to be taken seriously, as a lawyer or something, if you’re, like, a joke actor. The only thing I want from anything is to not be embarrassed.”

We don't know if we believe he doesn't care about the whole acting thing, but frankly, he can say whatever he wants, especially things like this:

“OK,” he says. Deep breath. “I f--ked Joe Jonas...I love him.”

Oh, that Rob Pattz, so racy.

The highly sought-after issue will hit newsstands March 17. For now, you can enjoy this slideshow of perfectly disheveled hair over at GQ.com.

This was all posted from E! Online.. So wasn't that awesome! You gotta love Rob Pattinson! :D

Drew Barrymore's out- Juan Antonio Bayona to Direct

Horromeister, Juan Antonio Bayona, is set to direct the third installment in the Twilight Saga, Eclipse. You may recognize one of his works, The Orphanage, as a Spanish-language horror film. Although he's never directed an English-language film, Bayona's skilled way with the horror genre must have won over Summit Entertainment. Summit, which had no comment Wednesday, is expected to make the official announcement soon. The minimajor recently gave Eclipse a release date of June 30, 2010.

On a personal note, I've seen The Orphanage, and it's really good. The level of horror is simply astounding, but not over-whelming. If anything, I'm excited to see this director's perspective on Eclipse.

Author of the Year at British Book Awards: Stephenie Meyer

According to the BBC, Stephenie Meyer is up for the Author of the Year Award at this year’s British Book Awards. Meyer shares the shortlist with many famous names, such as Barack Obama, US President. Whereas the Twilight Saga has settled down here, over in the UK, it's still going strong. Actually, it takes residence at the top four spots in the best-selling UK book charts. Getting back to the topic, however, the winners will be announced in a grand ceremony in London on April 3rd.

On a side note, USA Today has written a very interesting article concerning Twilight. They're saying the success of the Twilight books have 'fueled the demand for supernatural books in the market'. According to Sandee Roston of HarperCollins Children’s books,

"Teen paranormal fiction is one of our strongest and growing categories. And it’s not just vampires,” says Roston, "Werewolves, zombies and other creatures are also taking center stage."

Did this all start with Twilight? Really? If you guys have ever heard of The Lost Boys, then you can probably guess that readers have always had a fascination with the paranormal and unusual. It's about a vampire gang with a sort of West Side Story twist.. Meyer's Twilight has really brought this genre the forefront of pop culture. Once again, I find myself tipping my hat off to the acclaimed author.

Catherine Hardwicke Honored

Director of Twilight, Catherine Hardwicke was honored At The Texas Film Hall of Fame Awards. Among many honorable mentions, she received the Ann Richards Award for her contributions in film making and for making it in the mostly male-dominated Hollywood Industry.

Here's a bit of the interview:

American-Statesman: You studied architecture at The University of Texas. How did you transition from that to filmmaking?

Catherine Hardwicke: I’d done this crazy [senior] project … just very hilarious, theatrical and elaborate. … At the end of my presentation, none of the teachers or faculty said anything. Their jaws just dropped, and they just moved on to the next person. About a week later, one of the visiting critics came up and said, “You know what? I’ve been thinking about you, and you shouldn’t be in architecture. Architecture is not going to encourage your kind of creativity. You should find something else.” [Laughs]

What is the story behind your decision not to direct ‘New Moon’ (the follow-up to ‘Twilight’)?

If I felt like it was right, if the schedule worked right and the way the studio wanted to do the next one felt right for me, then I wanted to do it. And, if not, I didn’t want to. I’d have had like 10? weeks to prepare the movie. I didn’t think the script was there, and it wasn’t ready. I wanted the second one to be better than the first one. I wanted more time to at least think about it and dream about how to step it up to the next level.

There ya have it! Hardwicke's contribution to the Twilight Saga may not leave her alone just yet...

Any Misconceptions?- Gone

Kristen Stewart Clears Up A Few Points


Her whispered romance with Robert Pattinson:

“Rob and I are great friends,” Stewart says. “But I understand why you would assume that when we lean on each other for support, there must be something more…And I’m not criticizing anyone for thinking it either. If anything, they’re really perceptive, because they can see a closeness.” (Her longtime boyfriend, actor Michael Angarano, isn’t fazed by the talk either. “We laugh about it,” Stewart says.)

Her absence at the Oscars:
“If I was invited to the Oscars, I would be there in a nanosecond,” she says. “If I got an invitation to the Oscars, I wouldn’t turn it down!”

Hopes on Breaking Dawn:
“We all really hope there is going to be a number four. I’m pretty confident that the fans aren’t going to all of a sudden lose interest. The only case that a fourth one wouldn’t be made is if all of a sudden people stopped caring, and I really don’t think that’s going to happen.”

That was all Kristen Stewart again... (!) xD

Uh, Repent? Kristen Stewart's Side

Recognized actress, Kristen Stewart, spoke out about her unforgettable interview with Nylon. In another interview with collider.com, she stated:

“I love the Twilight fans. I have literally never said anything remotely negative about them. You have to stay away from certain key words that can be twisted in a negative connotation. Like the word ‘psychotic’ apparently is really bad. I feel like it’s a really humble position to take that it’s not normal—you know what I mean?—to find yourself in a situation where there are 5,000 screaming girls. I feel like that’s not normal and it’s not something I should just say, ‘Oh yeah, it’s really cool, I love them.’ I feel like everything I said in that Nylon interview, if you actually read the whole thing, was very honest and genuine and talking about something that I am so immersed in and I have absolutely no control over. And I’m just trying to stay honest and true to something that I care about.”

Yeah, I did a double-take too. Sheesh, people can be so mean; look at how nice she really is! (Hypocriticism at it's best!) ;P But really, she seemed pretty genuine..

Kristen's okay in my book again, her role in New Moon should help her too. And to all you Stewart haters out there- forgive her slip up! I can't say the same for her father, but Kristen maybe really deserves a 'forgive-and-forget' deal..

Well, that's it on my view... Let's hear yours!

Really, really good stuff, guys... 'Nuff said.

Quick Updates!

The release date for Eclipse has already been set! Word has been spreading that Summit has just released it: July 30, 2009. Some are wondering- heck, I'm wondering- how do they plan to make this happen? Well, it's said that filming for this movie will begin just after filming for New Moon ends. That makes the most sense, after all.. but you still have reasons to be at least a little bit suspicious of the release date.

And...

Another actor has just been announced! Small time Canadian actor, Bronson Pelletier, has been cast to play a major role in New Moon. Speculation as to which character has been revolving around a pack member. Summit has yet to release exactly which character the actor will be playing, however.. the obvious guess I suppose would be one of the pack guys.

On a final note, Twilight the movie will be unleashed on DVD on March 21, 2009. There will be a 2-disk special featuring a bunch of bloopers and deleted scenes.. expect it on Blue Ray too. You can now pre-order the movie on Amazon.

That's all for now on quick updates! Stay tuned.. ;)
