Gallery Update - Random Photos Added

05 Apr 2009

Below are some of the links to some of the photos that have been added to the gallery. They are for the most part older photos. I'm making it a goal this month to hopefully add more photos into the update and possibly branch it out to not just focus on Kristen and Rob but also on the other cast members too.

Also, if anyone knows of any good software that does screencapping for videos, please let me know.

New Moon: Meet Alex Meraz, One of the Wolves

02 Apr 2009

Five almost - strangers - all right, almost-complete strangers - were suddenly thrust on that trip to fame when they were announced as cast members for New Moon. I remember mentioning that, while writing about it, I was having a pretty hard time looking for photos of the Native American actors, which means I only laid my hands on a couple of them. I also spotted a third-that of Alex Meraz-but didn’t use it because it was too small. But I remember his photgraphs. There’s something with his eyes, all right.

Eventually, fans have paid attention to Meraz, thanks in part to that gaze and his handful of shirtless photos that have made their rounds on the days after the announcement. Perhaps you can say that the attention he gets from fans now is the same attention he got back when he was just an obscurity. “The camera loves him,” said his friend, fellow actor Raoul Trujillo. “Everywhere we go people are always saying, ‘Good God, who is your friend?’”

'Twilight' Fools' Day! Blogs Report Robert Pattinson's 'New Moon' Exit

01 Apr 2009

Sites play a cruel trick on Twilighters, saying Edward Cullen will be played by Zac Efron, Taylor Lautner instead.

Late Tuesday night, mere hours before it was officially April Fools' Day, blogs started to report that Robert Pattinson wouldn't appear in "Twilight" sequel "New Moon."

All the sites had different reasons for RPattz's exit from the film. PopSugar reported that he wanted out due to all the fan frenzy surrounding him and that he hoped to stick to smaller films in the future. The blog also said Taylor Lautner would assume the role of Edward Cullen.

"Enraged fans have already started sending costume vampire teeth to Robert as a plea to get him back," the post read. "But it looks like he's sticking to his decision."

Meanwhile, ScreenRant.com reported that the "production of 'New Moon' has shut down due to a dispute on the set," adding, "It seems that star Robert Pattinson has been butting heads with director Chris Weitz over not only script decisions, but apparent favoritism towards cast newcomer Dakota Fanning. Fanning has a much more established acting pedigree than Pattinson, and according to reports, he's pretty torqued about the difference in treatment on the set."

The site also had a new Edward Cullen lined up: Zac Efron. "Apparently the director and producers were impressed by Efron's performance in another teen-targeted film: 'High School Musical,' " the post read. "They think Efron could be a good fit, and maybe even better than Pattinson in the role and for the box office of future 'Twilight' films."

Rest easy, Twilighters: RPattz isn't going anywhere.

7 Things You Need to Know About 'New Moon' Wolf Alex Meraz

31 Mar 2009

It took one New Moon casting announcement to bring Alex Meraz from obscurity into the thick of Twilight mania. Out of all the wolf pack cast introduced, Meraz has clearly captured the public imagination with his shirtless photos and his piercing eyes. But who is Alex Meraz? We asked his mentor and friend, actor Raoul Trujillo, to give us a breakdown.

HE'S, UM, PRETTY HOT (OKAY, THAT WAS OUR POINT): "The camera loves him," agrees Trujillo. "Everywhere we go people are always saying, 'Good God, who is your friend.'"

"This is only going to be scarier now."

HE'S GONE FROM 'NEW WORLD' TO 'NEW MOON': Meraz's first big film was New World as one of the Powhatan core warriors. "That's kind of where he got the bug," says fellow New World cast member Trujillo. "It was an incredible experience."

Meraz was in the running, but was turned down for Apocalypto: "Mel felt he didn't look Mayan enough, which was silly." says Trujillo who was cast. "I don't look Mayan either, but they put a prosthetic nose on me and I looked plenty Mayan."

British Newcomer Joins Twilight

30 Mar 2009

British actor Jamie Campbell-Bower has revealed he will play Volturi leader Caius in The Twilight Saga: New Moon.

The 20-year-old, who has appeared in RockNRolla and Sweeney Todd, told the BBC news website that taking part in the vampire series was "very exciting".

"You're the first people I've told" he said. "Shooting has already started, and I'm going over in June."

The film, due for release in November, is the second adaptation from author Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series.

The role of Caius is key to the plot of New Moon. He forms part of the triumvirate leading the Italian based coven of vampires called the Volturi.

The second book in the series sees the gang become a threat to lovers Bella and Edward.

New Moon Scoop: Heidi Is a Supermodel!

25 Mar 2009

New Moon has its Heidi.

[E! Online] can exclusively reveal that Canadian supermodel Noot Seear has won the coveted role of the beautiful human bait in the Twilight sequel.

Heidi is described in Stephenie Meyer's novel as a "fisher" who brings humans to the Volturi vampires to eat. She has "exceptional, unforgettable" beauty, which includes stunning legs, long hair and violet eyes.

If y'all remember, 90210 starlet AnnaLynne McCord auditioned for the role, which insiders have described to me as being more of a cameo than anything else.

So who is this Noot Seear?

The 25-year-old dark blond stunner hails from Vancouver, Canada. (Yup, that's where director Chris Weitz just started shooting New Moon). She's 5 feet 9 inches tall and has blue eyes, according to her agency, One Model Management. Her measurements? 34-24-34.

New Moon Cast Up In Smoke

25 Mar 2009

Seems like uncleanliness isn't the only vice going on up in Vancouver. We're told by one of the New Moon castmembers (for all of you who are bitching and whining that we make this crap up) that their bonding sesh's not only include homemade dinners, but also group chain smoking.

But guess what they're all so busy puffing away on?

"Just plain ol' cigarettes," said a Twilight hanger-on. "But, like, tons of them. I think they smoke more than they have sex, actually."

Well, since everybody's so damn busy longing and mooning over each other, just like they do in the damn teeny franchise, sorta makes sense. Besides, I hear somebody's really hurting for the one they cast aside-only to want him (or her) back desperately now that filming's begun. More on that later in the week.

But as for this friggin' human-chimney thing the cast has goin' down (or up): Look, we aren't some prudes who think people who smoke cigs are horrible, but don't you think these kids are a tad young to be blazing it up like they're Lindsay Lohan or something?

Especially with swarms of young'uns absolutely idolizing this cast? We're sure there are other ways to connect that don't consist of blackening your lungs.

Summit Entertainment Runs With The Wolf Pack In New Moon

24 Mar 2009

News has also come from Stephenie Meyer's website regarding the casting for the wolf pack:

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.

In THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON, Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) is devastated by the abrupt departure of her vampire love, Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) but her spirit is rekindled by her growing friendship with the irresistible Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner). Suddenly she finds herself drawn into the world of the werewolves, ancestral enemies of the vampires, and finds her loyalties tested.

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.

The action-packed, modern day vampire love story and blockbuster success of the first film in the series entitled TWILIGHT was released in theatres on November 21, 2008 grossing $60.9 million domestically during its first weekend. To date the film has grossed nearly $380 million worldwide. TWILIGHT was released on DVD, Blu-ray and VOD this past Saturday, March 21st and sold over 3 million DVD units in its first day of release making it one of the top five best first day DVD releases over the past two years.

90210's AnnaLynne: No New Moon, No Boyfriend!

24 Mar 2009

AnnaLynne McCord has her hands full playing mean girl Naomi on 90210 which means she won't be appearing in the Twilight sequel, New Moon.

"I really would love to be doing it, but I'm not," the actress told Star at the Naturally Victoria's Secret launch event on March 21. Citing schedule conflicts, the actress says, "It wasn't something that we could work out. I'm disappointed."

Fans will not be disappointed to know that the blonde bombshell is single though. Despite rumors that AnnaLynne is dating
Twilight's Kellan Lutz, she say he is just a friend! "Kellan's not my boyfriend. We hang out a lot."

She adds, "He's a sweetheart, he's a really good friend of mine. We've known each other for five years actually. He's the biggest dork, he's like my big brother and we have a really good time together."

Perhaps AnnaLynne will find Mr. Right overseas. "I've been planning for a very long time to go to Europe for two months and it's kind of a 'self-renewal' trip. I need a little R&R."

'Twilight' Stars Lament The 'Unavoidable' Paparazzi

24 Mar 2009

'You really have to pay attention to what you look like when you leave your house,' Edi Gathegi says.

A year ago, they were young actors with few credits, traveling to Portland to shoot a low-budget vampire film with an indie director. This week, they're returning to Vancouver as A-listers, filming one of the most eagerly anticipated sequels of the year.

Hollywood has finally taken notice of the stars of "Twilight" - and so have the dreaded paparazzi.

"It's kind of bizarre," Ashley Greene told us over the weekend, discussing the stalker-iffic photos that popped up all over the Web recently - some even dissecting their beverage selections as they began "New Moon" pre-production. "We would walk out of our hotel, and there would be people there taking pictures, and the [headline] would be, like, 'Jackson and Ashley Get Coffee!' It's new."

According to Edi Gathegi, there might even be a double agent in the midst of the "Twilight" stars, leaking details about their movements. "There is a mole, and the mole is feeding information," Gathegi marveled, remembering recent pictures of the group flying out of Vancouver last week. "[The paparazzi] took pictures of every single one of us leaving the airport! It's like, how are they getting this information?"
