Twilight Saga Gals Speak on Franchise Appeal, Hot Hunks and More

Kristen Stewart is stuck traveling the globe with Taylor Lautner. That poor, poor girl. Meanwhile, a bunch of her Twilight Saga castmates gathered together for an interview with Vanity Fair, in which they each dishe on various aspects of the franchise. Let’s see what they had to say… Nikki Reed (Rosalie Cullen), on the appeal of the movies: “Bella and Edward’s love is very taboo and forbidden and I think that kind of represents all youthful relationships, because that’s what all first loves feel like… It’s sort of borderline, like, insane.” Elizabeth Reaser (Esme), on male co-stars, such as Lautner and Robert Pattinson : “Oh, it gets so old, you have no idea. It has no effect on me. They’re all gorgeous and lovely boys… You just want someone interesting and weird at a certain point. I have a massive crush on Larry David.” Bryce Dallas Howard (Victoria): “I had seen Twilight innumerable times. After I saw it for the fourth time, one of my best guy friends, for my birthday, made me Post-it notes with Robert Pattinson’s face that said, ‘Live Dangerously,’ because I was so obsessed. My husband actually said to me, ‘Do I need to be worried about this?’” Ashley Greene (Alice), on Eclipse : “You don’t have to be psychic to know how this movie’s going to do. Obviously, it’s going to be a hit.”

Nikki Reed Talks ‘Breaking Dawn’ Negotiations, MTV Movie Awards

‘I still won’t be nominated for Best Kiss, because I never kiss anyone!’ she laughs about her ‘Twilight’ character. By Ryan J. Downey Photo: MTV News When it comes to believing rumors about the “Twilight” cast, Nikki Reed has some simple advice straight out of the ’80s hip-hop playbook: Don’t believe the hype. “I think it’s kind of an obvious thing that we would all come back to do [‘Breaking Dawn’],” the 22-year-old actress told MTV News on Tuesday, addressing a rumor to the contrary that said salary disputes threatened to sideline one or more of her castmates. “The media gets involved. I mean, I didn’t really read anything that was printed,” she said, adding with a laugh: “At least the things that were printed about me.” While Reed isn’t reading the blogs, trades or tabloids, sometimes her parents are. “I get the occasional phone call from my mom or my dad going, like, ‘Hey, is this true? I heard that.’ And I’m like, ‘No! No, I’m not having a baby. No, I’m not! And yes I’m doing “Breaking Dawn”!’ [ Laughs. ] It’s always random.” A collective sigh of relief came from Twilighters worldwide when it was confirmed that Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and the rest of the cast would, in fact, reunite for director Bill Condon’s take on the fourth and final “Twilight Saga” book, “Breaking Dawn.” “Of course we’re all going to do the fourth movie. We did the first, second and third, and it makes sense, because we love the books and we want to make these movies,” she said. Perhaps wary of contributing to complicated reports herself, Reed quickly added: “I mean, I’m speaking for myself, I guess.” Reed first caught the attention of moviegoers in “Thirteen,” the 2003 teen drama she co-wrote when she was just that age herself. Reed’s “Thirteen” co-writer and director, Catherine Hardwicke, went on to cast her in the first “Twilight” movie, which launched the franchise just two years ago. Last year’s “New Moon” is nominated in multiple categories at the 2010 MTV Movie Awards , including Best Movie, but Reed insisted, “We should all win,” noting, “I’m very diplomatic.” While it seems assured that all the “Twilight” movies will end up nominated at future Movie Awards, there’s one category currently featuring two of her co-stars she’s confident she’ll never appear in. “I still won’t be nominated for Best Kiss , because I never kiss anyone!” she laughed.

Kristen Stewart Weighs In On ‘Wanted 2’ Rumors

‘I have nothing nailed down,’ ‘Eclipse’ actress says of playing the Angelina Jolie role in the sequel. By Jocelyn Vena Kristen Stewart Photo: Kevin Mazur/ WireImage In late April, rumors began surfacing online that “Twilight Saga” star Kristen Stewart was in the running for the role originated by Angelina Jolie in “Wanted 2.” The story was that Stewart is director Timur Bekmambetov’s top choice to replace Jolie in the sequel, pitting her against the returning James McAvoy as reluctant assassin Wesley Gibson. If hired, Stewart would play “a young, ass-kicking assassin in the Fraternity.” While much has been hush-hush about the speculation since it was initially reported, the star is now speaking up about the casting talk, saying that nothing is set in stone yet. “Right now, I have two projects lined up,” Stewart told Moviehole.net . “I’m doing ‘On the Road’ this summer and then I’m doing ‘Breaking Dawn.’ So other than that I have nothing nailed down.” With it still unknown whether “Breaking Dawn” will be two movies or one, it seems that Stewart’s schedule is definitely filled up for the time being. Regarding her involvement in the upcoming film adaptation of Jack Kerouac’s “On the Road,” she said last month, “I am very much attached to a movie that has been trying to get made forever. Not that this is going to help it, but maybe I can just brag a little bit. I am super-excited about it, too. I am about to play Marylou in ‘On the Road.’ So that’s a big deal.” In the same interview, fellow “Twilight” star Taylor Lautner dished that he has yet to even think about filming “Stretch Armstrong.” “It’s not happening for a while though, about a year from now,” he said. “I’m doing a movie called ‘Abduction,’ which starts in about a month. Then ‘Breaking Dawn.’ And hopefully ‘Stretch’ after that.” Would you like to see Stewart in “Wanted 2”? Tell us in the comments!

In the hilarious video below, Cruise takes on the persona of Len Grossman, the foul-mouthed Hollywood producer he portrayed in Tropic Thunder . When the Twilight Saga stud informs Grossman that he might actually wash hair for the MTV event, Grossman goes off on him, screaming: “Your filthy hair made you a star! Your filthy hair sent my fat-*ss kid to Space Camp four times!” It’s great stuff. Watch now: MTV Movie Awards Promo The MTV Movie Awards will air on June 6. Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner will all present at the ceremony. They’ll also show a new clip from Eclipse .

Jackson Rathbone Says Making ‘Breaking Dawn’ Will Be ‘Amazing Experience’

‘I find myself working with people I’ve dreamed of working with,’ actor says of director Bill Condon. By Kara Warner Jackson Rathbone Photo: MTV News “Twilight” star Jackson Rathbone can’t believe his luck: Not only is he part of a hugely popular franchise, but he’s been able to work with some of his favorite directors. When MTV caught up with Rathbone, who is in two big summer movies — “Eclipse” and M. Night Shyamalan’s “The Last Airbender” — he revealed he can’t wait to start work on “Breaking Dawn” with Oscar-winner Bill Condon at the helm. “I have not yet had a chance to meet Bill Condon, but I think it’s going to be an amazing experience to work with an Academy Award-winning director of his caliber,” he said. “Getting to work with these incredible directors that I’ve admired, ever since filming “The Last Airbender” with M. Night, even the first “Twilight” with Catherine Hardwicke. I really loved her directorial debut, [which] I think was ‘Thirteen.’ I thought that was incredible, and she co-wrote it with Nikki Reed, who’s a good friend of mine now.” Rathbone said he’s still trying to wrap his mind around it all and just wants to bask in the glow. “I find myself working with people I’ve dreamed of working with. It’s an amazing position to be in,” he said. “It’s a privilege, not a right. … I’m basking in it, loving it, because as an artist, you get those moments, you live ’em up.” As for “Breaking Dawn,” the musician/actor said he knows just as much as we do. Which is not a lot. “They’re keeping ‘Breaking Dawn’ under wraps,” he said. We’re all waiting on a script right now. It’s all up in the air — we don’t even know when we’re going to film.” Check out everything we’ve got on “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse” and “The Last Airbender.” For breaking news, celebrity columns, humor and more — updated around the clock — visit MTVMoviesBlog.com .

‘That’s a little secret out there to all the ladies,’ he tells MTV News. ‘Will y’all be Team Romeo?’ By Kara Warner Lil’ Romeo Photo: MTV News Percy “Romeo” Miller has been quite the jack-of-all-trades in the last couple years, juggling music and acting careers with playing basketball and being a student at the University of Southern California. When MTV News caught up to the multi-hyphenate to find out what film is his pick for Best Movie at the 2010 MTV Movie Awards , he revealed a bit of a bias — because he’s in talks for a part in “Breaking Dawn.” “The one thing is, I might be in the last ‘Twilight,’ so I’m going to have to go with [‘New Moon’ to win over ‘Avatar’],” he said, ready to give Team Edward and Team Jacob a fight. “That’s a little secret out there to all the ladies. Will y’all be Team Romeo?” Romeo said he’s talking about taking on a small role in the last of a possible two films being made out of Stephenie Meyer’s best-selling book. “We’re talking to some of the executive producers right now,” he said. “It’s a small [role], but you might see me in there.” The former Nickelodeon star said he’s ready to give muscled-up werewolf Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner) some competition. “I’ve been working on my physique, I’m getting ready,” he said proudly, lifting up his sleeve to show off a bicep. “Team Romeo is here, baby.” In the meantime, Romeo is busy promoting a new album due in July and the horror movie “The Pig People,” set in his native Louisiana. It’s a movie Romeo described as both “spooky and sexy” that revolves around creepy half-pig creatures that go on a murderous rampage in a small town. The film also stars Romeo’s dad, Master P.

Kristen Stewart To Shoot ‘On The Road’ In August

Jack Kerouac adaptation starring Garrett Hedlund will be filmed in Montreal, New Orleans and Mexico. By Eric Ditzian Kristen Stewart Photo: Steve Granitz/ WireImage/ Getty Images Kristen Stewart’s summer will be anything but relaxing. The 20-year-old actress is about to jump into globe-trotting publicity mode as the June 30 release of “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse” draws near. Now, her August is fully booked as well: KStew is set to being filming “On the Road” early that month in Montreal. According to the Montreal Gazette, the film will begin shooting on August 2 in Quebec’s largest city. Producers have already set up an office at Cite du Cinema, the city’s largest film production facility. After filming there for most of August, the shoot will shift to New Orleans for a month, then head to Mexico for a few weeks and finally return to Montreal before wrapping. Adapted from the iconic 1957 Beat generation novel by Jack Kerouac, “On the Road” stars Garrett Hedlund (“Tron Legacy”) as Dean Moriarty, the disaffected drifter at the center of the story. Stewart will play Marylou, Dean’s wife. Filling out the rest of the cast are Kirsten Dunst and British actor Sam Riley (“Control”). Francis Ford Coppola is producing, and Walter Salles (“The Motorcycle Diaries”) will direct. “I am very much attached to a movie that has been trying to get made forever,” Stewart said earlier this month. “Not that this is going to help it, but maybe I can just brag a little bit. I am super excited about it, too. I am about to play Marylou in ‘On the Road.’ So that’s a big deal.” The shoot should end well in advance of the start of “Breaking Dawn” filming this fall. The fourth film in the “Twilight” franchise will hit theaters on November 18, 2011. Do you think “On the Road” will make a good movie? Share your thoughts in the comments.

Elizabeth Reaser Has ‘No Idea’ If Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart Are Dating

‘I’m also, like, the clueless person on set,’ ‘Twilight’ co-star says. By Jocelyn Vena Elizabeth Reaser Photo: MTV News Are they? Aren’t they? It’s the question that has been plaguing Twilighters since Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart first auditioned on Catherine Hardwicke’s bed. When they spoke to Oprah Winfrey about it earlier this month, they laughed off the chatter about their relationship. And in an interview with USA Today the actors admitted we haven’t seen them out together because they’ve been deliberately hiding. But if you’re hoping their co-star Elizabeth Reaser, who plays vampire matriarch Esme Cullen, has any insight into their dating status, it seems she is the wrong girl to ask. “Oh! I don’t know!” she laughed when asked about the rumors when she stopped by the MTV Newsroom earlier this week. “I haven’t talked to Rob or Kristen in a while, so I have no idea. Like I said, you probably know way more than I do.” Reaser said she’s not really in tune with the personal lives of the people she works with. “I never know anything,” she admitted. “I’m also, like, the clueless person on set that has no idea what’s happening. And I think I like it that way.” She even joked that if she saw the pair making out on set, she would just assume, “Oh, they must be rehearsing!” Really, the actress has more important things on her mind. “I’m always just, like, looking for the peanut M&M’s, so I don’t know what’s going on,” If you were Elizabeth Reaser, would you spill the beans about RPattz and KStew? Discuss it in the comments! Check out everything we’ve got on “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.” For young Hollywood news, fashion and “Twilight” updates around the clock, visit HollywoodCrush.MTV.com .
