The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2 machine is underway and the film’s on and off-screen couple are headed out on the road – though separately for now. Kristen Stewart headed to Tokyo to talk up the wildly successful conclusion to the vampire franchise, while Robert Pattinson flew Down Under for his whirlwind of engagements in Australia. While Twilight distributor is holding a strict “no-go” as far as questions about the real-life R-Patz/K-Stew drama that gripped segments of the celebrity-fueled chatter world in late summer/early fall, Pattinson did bring her up at a meeting with Oz journalists and more on his final play as Edward Cullen. Media hounds have prognosticated a real-life reconciliation though Pattinson stayed on script, only talking up the vampire finale. He gave Stewart a shout-out for her transformation into a vampire in the series. “Yeah, she was really excited about being a vampire. Everybody else who’d been pretty consistently in the movies, they’d obviously been playing a vampire like every day for ages. And so it’s funny seeing someone suddenly come into it and try and figure out their own version of the physicality and the mentality of it. But her character has a different thing, because she’s supposed to find it really easy. It’s supposed to be a natural progression for her to become a vampire, it’s supposed to be simple. So I guess it was kind of different. ” The previous four Twilight features have grossed over $3.2 billion worldwide and the features have catapulted Pattinson, Stewart, Taylor Lautner and a host of others into stardom (some into stratospheric stardom) though Pattinson gave a careful response when asked if he’d take part in a new series spin-off if the chance should arise. “I don’t say ‘definitely not’ to anything. Just in case.” Pattinson recalled how he almost quit acting before the first Twilight landed in his lap, but naturally the series changed all that. “Yeah, it is very odd. I think that a lot of actors go through the same thing, when you’ve literally gotta be just like ‘Ugh, this is pointless.’ That’s the only time you ever seem to get any jobs – you’ve gotta be at rock bottom! But yeah, it’s funny. I was like fully, fully intending not to do it anymore, and then this came up.” He said earlier this year during an interview with ShortList.com that he felt sort of “useless” playing the same part over and over. “You just run out of ideas,” he quipped. “You don’t know what to do any more. I’m not trying to get away from it. You’re screwing yourself, you’re saying you think your work is shit if you try to get away from it. And I never thought it was. I kind of got to the end of my inspiration. You get to the point where you’re like, ‘I don’t want to do a film for a teen audience any more.'” Post- Twilight promotion, Pattinson will be heading back to Australia for his next project. “My next thing I’m doing in Australia with this guy David Michod who did ‘Animal Kingdom,’ and Guy Pearce,” he told MTV Australia. “That’s going to be fun.” Directed by Bill Condon, Breaking Dawn – Part 2 opens in the U.S. November 16th. The Twilight gang will undoubtedly be heading to the States for more Breaking Dawn talk – and perhaps in the same room. [ Sources: Yahoo! , MTV Australia ]
James Cameron said last Spring he disbanded his production company’s development wing, noting that aside from his deep-sea submarine dives, that he’s exclusively in the ” Avatar business – meaning Avatar 2 , Avatar 3 and possibly Avatar 4 . Well, that was then and this is now… But, Cameron’s production company has picked up rights to Taylor Stevens’ thriller novel The Informationist which he’ll likely direct and produce. “I’m not going to produce other people’s movies for them,” he told the New York Times earlier in the year. While Avatar -orama is still on, Cameron is eyeing a filmmaking life beyond the 3-D behemoth. Avatar ‘s follow-up may not hit screens for another four to five years, so it may be quite a number of years before The Informationist actually makes its way into production. But for now the plan is that his Lightstorm Entertainment label will develop the adaptation for 20th Century Fox, THR reports . “This was an opportunity to continue our relationship with Fox and Jim Gianopulos beyond the Avatar films,” Landau said in a statement to THR. “We were drawn to this book because of the terrific, compelling narrative and the character, who typifies the strong female protagonists that have inhabited Jim’s work. In this case, Vanessa Munroe is essentially a mix of Lisbeth Salander and Jason Bourne.” Said Cameron: “Taylor Stevens’ Vanessa Michael Munroe is an intriguing and compelling heroine with an agile mind and a thirst for adventure. Equally fascinating for me is her emotional life and her unexpected love story.” Amazon’s description of The Informationist: Stevens’s blazingly brilliant debut introduces a great new action heroine, Vanessa Michael Munroe, who doesn’t have to kick over a hornet’s nest to get attention, though her feral, take-no-prisoners attitude reflects the fire of Stieg Larsson’s Lisbeth Salander….Thriller fans will eagerly await the sequel to this high-octane page-turner.” —Publishers Weekly, starred, boxed review Vanessa “Michael” Munroe deals in information—expensive information—working for corporations, heads of state, private clients, and anyone else who can pay for her unique brand of expertise. Born to missionary parents in lawless central Africa, Munroe took up with an infamous gunrunner and his mercenary crew when she was just fourteen. As his protégé, she earned the respect of the jungle’s most dangerous men, cultivating her own reputation for years until something sent her running. After almost a decade building a new life and lucrative career from her home base in Dallas, she’s never looked back. [ Sources: THR , The Film Stage , Amazon ]
