By Jocelyn Vena Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart in “Breaking Dawn” Photo: Andrew Cooper/ Summit Entertainment One of the perks of being asked to contribute to a soundtrack includes seeing the flick long before anyone else. For self-proclaimed Twilighter Christina Perri, getting a first look at “Breaking Dawn- Part 1” before it opens November 18 was a pretty big deal. “When I screened the movie, it was definitely one of my favorite days ever,” she told MTV News on the set of the video for her “Breaking Dawn” track, “A Thousand Years.” “I went with all these Hollywood people, and they were there for work, and I was there for work to get inspired to write a song, but I was an
With Kristen Stewart off shooting Snow White and the Huntsman , Ashley Greene has become the female face of the Breaking Dawn marketing campaign these days. The gorgeous actress is covering multiple magazines this month, from Flare to Allure to the latest example, BlackBlook. Inside this issue, the actress jokes about her supposedly packed love life, while also opening up about her dad. Excerpts follow… Is she dating anyone? “I’m dating everyone! My brother lives in LA and won’t even walk outside a restaurant with me. He’s like, ‘I don’t want to be romantically linked to you.'” What other jobs has she held? “I worked at the dry cleaner across from my school, I worked accounts payable for a company, I did hosting, I worked at a bowling alley, I worked at a boutique. I worked at a hotel, I worked at a restaurant, I did modeling, I worked everywhere. And I didn’t get fired!” What was her father like growing up? “My dad used to be in the Marines, so no one is going to give him flack. At 14, I was being a little brat, I thought I knew everything, and my dad was like, ‘I own your bed, your TV, everything.’ There was a lot of discipline, and with what I’m doing now, I’m glad for it.”

“Basically, I’m fighting evil — I’m fighting the most evil motherf–kers — and it’s fine that they’re being killed,” Kristen Stewart told Box Office Magazine of her currently-filming Snow White and the Huntsman . “It’s anguish. It’s literally f–king anguish. She takes absolutely no pleasure in ever hurting anything. I’m exhausted right now and I was thinking, ‘The fight stuff is coming up, maybe that won’t be so bad.’ And then I realized that they’re probably going to be my most emotional scenes because I’m killing people and I’m Snow White. It’s a really f–king cool way to approach a movie where so many people die.” Score another badass point in favor of SWATH . Sorry, other Snow White movie . [ Box Office Magazine ]

‘I’m one of the only characters that comes in and out of the story,’ Sarah Gadon tells MTV News about the David Cronenberg film. By Jocelyn Vena, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Robert Pattinson and Sarah Gadon in “Cosmopolis” Photo: Caitlin Cronenberg’s Twitter Robert Pattinson , who will marry Kristen Stewart in “Breaking Dawn” this November, is also set to wed Sarah Gadon in David Cronenberg’s “Cosmopolis.” And, as Gadon revealed to MTV News, it’s going be a very interesting journey for the newlyweds in the film. “I think it’s a really interesting film, and I don’t want to give away too much, but I think in a really kind of pared-down version of the film, it’s about a young millionaire who loses everything in the course of a day,” New Class -er Gadon said. “I play his new wife, so I’m one of the only characters that comes in and out of the story throughout the film. We have breakfast, lunch and dinner together, and those are going to be some interesting meals.” Having already worked with Cronenberg on the Freudian flick “A Dangerous Method,” Gadon said she was fully aware what she was getting herself into, so watching Pattinson get into the director’s dangerous method proved to be quite interesting. “For me, it was really interesting and great to work with Rob at this point in his career,” she said. “And I think David Cronenberg is a fabulous director, and to see Rob meet with David at this point in his journey as an artist was really special for me to watch. “I think when you work with David Cronenberg, it’s a really exciting and liberating and, at the same time, terrifying experience. And it was really great, having worked with David, to watch somebody new go through that … I think it’s really great for [Pattinson] to have chosen this role and be a part of our film.” It’s a great time to be Gadon: Her star is definitely on the rise, and having someone like Cronenberg on her side is certainly proving to be fruitful for the 24-year-old Canadian native. “I thought that going into the process with ‘A Dangerous Method’ was way more daunting,” she admitted. “I had created an audition tape, sent it into David, had booked the role, flew to Germany knowing I would be playing Michael Fassbender’s wife in a film with Keira Knightley and Viggo [Mortensen] and Vincent Cassel. And then, not having met David until the day I arrived in full period hair and makeup for our camera tests … I didn’t even sleep. “So, that whole experience really made me grow so much as an actor that by the time ‘Cosmopolis’ came around, not to brush it off, but I was ready for something like that. I felt prepared,” she continued. “Also, David is such an intelligent and thoughtful director, but he’s also a man of few words, so getting ‘Cosmopolis,’ when he asked me to be a part of that film, in a way, it was a validation.” Check out everything we’ve got on “Cosmopolis.” For breaking news, celebrity columns, humor and more — updated around the clock — visit MTVMoviesBlog.com .
