Twilight star eclipsed by Robert Pattinson fame
IN X-MEN: THE LAST STAND, Cameron Bright played a mutant child called Jimmy whose power cancelled out the abilities of other superhumans. Now he's finding his own power cancelled out by the massive popularity of heart-throb Robert Pattinson, who plays vampire Edward Cullen in the Twilight film franchise.
Bright, 16, pictured above on the left in his X-Men role, has been cast in sequel The Twilight Saga: New Moon as Alec, part of the Volturi vampire clan and twin brother of Jane (Dakota Fanning). He says he gets mobbed by fans and female friends - but all they want is for him to get them a Robert Pattinson autograph. Link...

The lanky 6'1" Pattinson, who is currently in Vancouver filming Twi sequel New Moon, isn't a workout fanatic. But he stepped up his workout and diet regimens in 2008 after landing the role of the dashing vampire Edward Cullen in Twilight. Read more...

Stephenie Meyer's Twilight banned
The combination of Stephenie Meyer, vampires/werewolves and the Mormon church always seemed an odd one to me. Now comes news that Deseret Book, a store owned by the Mormon church, has taken Meyer's immensely popular Twilight off its shelves. Same for the other books in the series: New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn.
According to a story in the Salt Lake Tribune, the bulk of Deseret Book's business comes from the sale of religious titles. And it apparently doesn't matter that Meyer is arguably the most famous Mormon author -- she graduated from Brigham Young University and is a member of the church. Read more...

Twilight Screenwriter: Bring On Channing Tatum!
If Channing Tatum hasn’t read the Twilight books, he may want to start.
At least one very important person in the movie adaptations of Stephenie Meyer’s vampire love story thinks Tatum would be perfect to play bad-boy vampire Riley in Eclipse, the third in the four-book series.
“There’s a very big battle at the end with Riley, and I think Channing would do that so well,” Twilight and New Moon screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg, who is currently writing the Eclipse script, told us this weekend at the Los Angeles Times Book Festival benefit for the Writers Guild Foundation.
“And there are some complexities to that character," she adds. "He really is tragic. He’s a puppet for Victoria [bad-girl vampire played by Rachelle Lefevre]. So he has to break your heart a little bit at the end when he realizes that she doesn’t want him. Channing could do that beautifully.”
Rosenberg also confirmed some good news for Robert Pattinson fans...
Even though Edward Cullen may not be in the New Moon novel as much as he is in the others, she promised we’ll be seeing plenty of the Brit actor in the flick, which is currently shooting in Vancouver with director Chris Weitz. Read more...

New Moon - Robert Pattinson and Kellan Lutz's brotherly love
Kellan Lutz likes to think that he is Robert Pattinson's brother when they are filming scenes.
Kellan credits Twilight author Stephenie Meyer with helping him understand what makes Emmet tick. He told Scholastic: "She was always there for us. I had a lot of questions. There was one passage that was left out, about Emmet and the bear, and it told a lot about Emmet and Edward's relationship and how close they really are.
"For me to read that really helped me understand that relationship. When Rob and I are acting, I really feel that we're brothers. Without that I don't think I would have had that connection. Stephenie just gave me so much info."
Kellan also admitted that he has had his share of crazy fan encounters. Read more...

Robert Pattinson: I Act For 'Pretty Girls'

"Every single person who they sort of romantically link me to… I just don't even really know anyone. So it doesn't really affect me that much," he said, adding about Kristen, "I don't understand where that even comes from." Read more...

'Twilight' Reality-Show Champ Will Win A Role In Upcoming Sequel
Over the past year, Twilighters have endured enough action, drama and intrigue to make them feel like they're trapped inside a reality show. Now, they're finally getting one to call their own.
Plans have been announced for a new reality show called "Mission Hollywood," which will feature 12 women competing in an "American Idol"-like competition to see who is the best actress. The prize? A role in one of the upcoming "Twilight" sequels.

Twilight Writer Sued for Plagiarism
Stephanie Meyer, the writer behind the wildly successful Twilight book, is being sued by a former friend for plagiarism--and production on the follow up, New Moon has been halted as a result.
Heidi Stanton, who studied alongside Meyer at Brigham Young University in Utah claims Meyers stole the vampire story from her because it's very similar to a short story she wrote while they were attending college together.
Stanton filed her lawsuit against Meyer in Utah last Tuesday, April 14th alleging idea infringement. She states in the papers, "Quite frankly, I was shocked when I began watching the movie with my husband last week. I immediately told him that she got that idea from me! I wrote a fictional short story with the same ideas when we were in college together." Read more...

Robert Pattinson Sex Machine
The rumors coming out of Vancouver concerning Robert Pattinson are tough for his giant teenage fanbase to handle. Of course these tweens view Robert as Edward Cullen, his most famous role. Edward Cullen is a beautiful vampire, who despite the fact his nature dictates he drains her blood, enters into a sexless relationship with Bella Swan, because consummation of their love would just be too dangerous.
But, here, in the real world, Robert Pattinson is just a man and no such problem exists. If he sleeps with a few adoring fans or a castmate, what's the worst that can happen? Just some upset fangirls who then realize their celluloid hero is just a regular dude, not a sexless vampire who glitters in the sun. Read more of this funny article....

Foreign ‘Twilight’ fans alighting on Forks

About the shoot schedule:

Monday this week, as I’ve already mentioned, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, and Robert Pattinson were all on set by dawn. Very, very early starts to shoot on the edge of the woods. There’s a tense discussion between the three of them, then Taylor/Jacob leaves and wolf-transforms, then between KS and RP it gets kinda romantic as there’s talk of a wedding. Or something. They are shooting several options for a proposal, this is one of them – you’ll have to wait to see which they end up choosing.

New Robert Pattinson Trailer
He is more than just a bloodsucker.
Twilight's Robert Pattinson stars in "How To Be", a story about a singer/songwriter who is down on his luck and seeks help from a Canadian self-help guru. A brand new trailer for the movie has hit Yahoo! and if you are a Robert Pattinson fan, it's a must see.
In the trailer, Pattinson's character is down on his luck. His girlfriend breaks up with him. He gets fired from a volunteer job. He has moved back home with his parents who aren't interested in his life. He feels like he isn't normal and enlists the help of famous self-help author of "It's Not Your Fault", Dr. Ellington, to "fix" him. Will it work or should he just work on his music. Sometimes the only way to find yourself is to let yourself be. Link...

Robert Pattinson retiring after Twilight?
In reference to actor Robert Pattinson, Internet Movie Database says:

"He has announced he will retire from acting following the fulfillment of his contract with Summit Entertainment and the Twilight saga which will see the release of New Moon and Eclipse summer 2010."

All this will depend on the quality of the next two films and the demand of the Twilight fans. Pattinson has already starred as Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. It was Twilight, and the conviction of its fanbase that propelled him to stardom.
Pattinson also has been in several independent films that got him this far; they can be seen at IMDb. Link...

Twilight star Robert Pattinson certainly has career options
Sad as that day will be, once The Twilight Saga: New Moon, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, and (crossed fingers) The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn are completed, Little Ashes and How to Be star Robert Pattinson has a lot of options.
Though he is “rumored” for a part in the up-coming film (another love story) Memoirs, no official confirmation as to his involvement with the project is yet available. Beyond Memoirs, and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, Robert Pattinson’s future in films is as yet unknown (unless Breaking Dawn, like he said, will be made).
What we do know is that he has been busy filming The Twilight Saga: New Moon in Vancouver, and that’s not all. Sam Bradley, close friend to Rob (and amazing musician responsible for co-authoring “Never Think (Too Far Gone)” from the Twilight soundtrack – see here for more on Sam Bradley) told me that he and Rob have been spending a lot of time together – writing a new song. We also know that Rob has been playing with the idea of working on an Indie album, according to reports. What we don’t know is what the film world holds for Pattinson’s future. Read more...

'New Moon' shines on the beach
Making a movie is challenging enough without also having to fly under the radar as the producers of New Moon, the Twilight sequel starring Robert Pattinson as teen vampire Edward Cullen, have learned. Stephenie Meyer's four teenage vampire romance novels and the film based on the first one are the biggest international pop-culture phenomenon since Harry Potter.
Before a two-day shoot inside Pacific Rim National Park Reserve even began on March 20, it was shrouded in such secrecy it was code-named the Untitled Sports Movie. As desperate as such measures might seem, the saga's huge, obsessive base of "Twi-hards" have made it unavoidable. Read more...

Filming of 'Twilight' sequel causes fandomonium in Island town
Making a movie is challenging enough without also having to fly under the radar as the producers of New Moon, the Twilight sequel starring Robert Pattinson as teen vampire Edward Cullen, have learned. Stephenie Meyer's four teenage vampire romance novels and the film based on the first one are the biggest international pop-culture phenomenon since Harry Potter.
Before a two-day shoot inside Pacific Rim National Park Reserve even began on March 20, it was shrouded in such secrecy it was code-named the Untitled Sports Movie. Read more...

Twilight News for April 9

Happy Birthday to Twilight and New Moon movie star Kristen Stewart!
Kristen Jaymes Stewart, who is currently in the midst of filming The Twilight Saga: New Moon, is officially nineteen years old today (April 9th)! Including her current projects (The Twilight Saga: New Moon, K-11, and The Runaways), Stewart's youth has proved no obstacle to accomplishment as she boasts twenty-two films (and counting) on her resume already.

Beginning back in 2001 with her role as Sam Jennings in The Safety of Objects, and up to her latest completed and newly released picture Adventureland, Kristen Stewart has seen the kind of success that most actors might only dream about. Read more...

'Twilight's' Rival Vampires Set Up Shop In Vancouver

Last week when we wrote about fan furor in Vancouver around the shooting of vampire sequel "New Moon," we suggested another production could sneak in under the radar and get a lot of work done while local teens were distracted. And look, someone was listening! Specifically, the CW, which is moving in with its own vampire show.

The network behind Gossip Girl recently ordered a pilot called "The Vampire Diaries," based on a '90s YA series by L.J. Smith about a girl in a small town who falls in love with the mysterious new guy in town only to discover that he is a, say it, vampire. "Dawson's Creek" creator Kevin Williamson is executive producing and "LOST"'s Ian Somerhalder has been cast as one of the vampires. And guess who was just spotted hanging out in Vancouver this week? So the network isn't just jumping on the bandwagon, it's biting the scene too. Read more...

New Moon will kill Twilight
If you thought Twilight was great then just wait until you see New Moon. Kristen Stewart and Ashley Greene think New Moon is going to be miles better that Twilight.
Ashley told Reelzchannel: "New Moon is kind of a step up. In Twilight we built this foundation, it was almost like an indie film, we didn't have that high level budget.
Now, because of the success of Twilight we have this budget to go on and so everythings a little bit improved." Read more...

The Pacific Northwest in Twilight
Movies can act as love letters to a location, a glowing endorsement that this place deserves your time and attention. Through all the trickery of technology, films create a travel brochure of irresistible sights and sounds that invite complete strangers to feel familiar with and be seduced by these new surroundings. Famous, instantly recognisable landmarks help cast the spell until the viewer surrenders, almost feeling like a native. Not so in Twilight.

While some films happily throw in the Eiffel Tower to remind you it’s set in Paris or the Taj Mahal for Indian authenticity, so Twilight is interestingly vague. Read more...

But Pattinson was forced to take time out from filming when he damaged ligaments in his rear end - and had to undergo a butt-rub before he could continue shooting. Read more...

Kristen Stewart And Taylor Lautner Grow Closer On New Moon Set
In a case of Life imitating Art, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner are growing closer as they film the Twilight sequel New Moon in Vancouver.
New Moon departs from Twilight because the focus shifts from Bella Swan and her devotion to Edward Cullen to her burgeoning friendship with Jacob Black. Since Lautner and Stewart are spending more time on screen it's only natural that they're also spending more time together off the set.
On March 18, Taylor and Kristen strolled the streets of Vancouver as stunned onlookers tried to get a better look at their celluloid heroes. Read more...

Taylor Lautner and Robert Pattinson Fight on ‘New Moon’ Set
Drama and jealousy over who is the heartthrob, tabloid says
Whenever a movie reaches the levels of exposure and fame that “Twilight” has, rumors are certain to surface about anything and everything, from the relationships between cast members to what they do in the privacy of their own homes. In this context, hearing that Robert Pattinson has gotten physical with much younger Taylor Lautner over who the male hottie on the set of “New Moon” is should probably not come as too much of a surprise.
Fans of the film and the actors who appear in it should bear in mind, though, that this story comes from a tabloid, therefore it would be recommended if we took it with a grain of salt. With this in mind, Life&Style Weekly is reporting that sources on the set of “New Moon” speak of a real drama over Lautner getting to be the lead in the sequel, thus stealing Robert’s thunder. Moreover, the spies say, the conflict has even escalated to physical violence, according to ICYDK. Read more...

Robert Pattinson Enjoys Canadian Music
Twilight hunk Robert Pattinson was spotted at the Juno Awards, where Canada celebrates their best in music, last weekend in Vancouver. After the show, he reportedly attended the after party at Vancouver's Velvet Room inside the Opus Hotel. The VIP room of course!
Of course, the sexy vampire Ed Cullen was recognized and there were some giggles, but the Twilight actor was laidback, gracious, enjoyed a martini and just stayed cool.
Hmmm...wonder what he is up to this weekend? More Rob stories here...

How a chance encounter with Twilight star Robert Pattinson changed the life of Vancouver indie artist Adaline
It's funny what a chance encounter with the world's hottest vampire will do for your career.
Adaline, one of Canada's up n' coming indie-pop stars, ran into Twilight's Robert Pattinson — a.k.a. bloodsucker Edward Cullen — at a club in Vancouver.
She wrote about the experience on Twitter and MySpace, which was then posted to several Pattinson fan sites. In less than 24 hours, flocks of Twilight fans were checking out her MySpace page. How cool is that?
As a token of her appreciation, Adaline is now offering a free download of her single, Whiter/Straighter, from her delicious debut, Famous For Fire.
"Who would have ever thought that one small Twitter post would result in over 20,000 plays of my music and hundreds and hundreds of personal messages of encouragement!" she writes on her blog. Read more...

Twilight series spawns religion: Edward Cullen is real, members should read the books like a Bible
How far is too far in our Twilight series fandom? With newspapers gaggling over film stars Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson's choice of wardrobe and hairstyle on a near-daily basis (though I'll give some of them credit, lately - see here), a readership of Stephenie Meyer's hit series that has reached over 30 million, the film reaching the number one spot for the year (see here), and children running around biting other children in the name of Twilight (supposedly - see here), we have to step back and wonder, when is our fandom getting to be too much?

Pillow Biters, one my favorite Twilight blogs, is reporting that the so-called Cullenist religion might be going "overboard to a realm that would make Mormon mom Stephenie Meyer cringe." Read more...

Robert Pattinson And Co Give Twilight Fans The Slip In Vancouver
Robert Pattinson and his New Moon co-stars are keeping a low profile as they film the second instalment of the vampire saga in and around Vancover. Sightings of Rob and the gang have been thin on the ground, despite the best efforts of fans who have been playing spot-the-vampire across the city.

Robert Pattinson: All the Girls I've Liked Hated Me
Twilight hunk Robert Pattinson is adored by millions of women around the world, but his love life has apparently always been rocky.

"I had really bad luck with girls [when I was younger]: the ones I liked hated me and the ones that liked me were not my type," the self-deprecating Rob tells Glamour Spain. "But that’s something that I still go through. I like girls that I shouldn’t like. But I’m learning, and now I take my time before I let the girl know." Read more...

Vampire Showdown: James Marsters On ‘Buffy’’s Spike Vs. ‘Twilight’'s Edward
In one corner, the bleached blonde “Buffy” vampire punk. In the other, the mysterious Edward Cullen of “Twilight” fame. So what happens when vampires clash and only one can be left standing? For that, we turned to James Marsters — who played Spike for seven years on both “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” and “Angel” and who stars as Lord Piccolo in April 10th’s “Dragonball: Evolution.”
“I’m not aware of a split,” said Marsters diplomatically, explaining that there’s definitely crossover between “Buffy” and “Twilight” fans including he himself who has read the “Twilight” books with his family.
“My niece started ‘Twilight’ and she was convinced that Edward was based on Spike,” Marsters laughed, “I thought that was fabulous. I’m her guardian and that’s just fine if she thinks that way.”
But when it comes to showdown, Marsters had to admit that it’s going to be a pretty close fight. Read more..
