Kristen Stewart’s Stronger Bella In Eclipse

Kristen Stewart that Bella is stronger and less tortured in latest movie Eclipse.

Eclipse is the third movie in the Twilight Saga series to be adapted for the big screen, coming just eight months after the release of New Moon.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly the actress said: “I wasn’t as tortured as I was on New Moon. Bella really knows what she wants in Eclipse. She’s not just a dumb kid talking because she’s in love.”

The movie follows a string of mysterious killings which is gripping Seattle. Bella, whose high school graduation is fast approaching, is forced to choose between her love for vampire Edward and her friendship with werewolf Jacob.

And Stewart admits that her first kiss with co-star Taylor Lautner, who plays Jacob. was a little awkward.

“It felt really weird kissing someone else as Bella. I was like, ‘What the hell are you doing?’ It was a really strange experience – as it should have been.”

Despite not doing well when release New Moon was one of the biggest grossing movies of 2009, going on to take over $709 million at the global box office. SOURCE

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse’ Soundtrack: Who Will Make The Cut


When it comes to the “Twilight Saga,” the soudtracks are almost as anticipated as the films themselves. And with the “Eclipse” soundtrack set for release on June 8, many fans are wondering which artists made the cut.

Adam Lambert had hoped that his song “Suburban Decay” could find a home on the soundtrack. He told MTV News that it could be the perfect tune to further elaborate the love story between Bella and Jacob. “It’s a great song and I hope to perform it someday, and I think it will find a home on a soundtrack or something … maybe ‘Twilight,’ ” he said. “It just didn’t quite fit [in my album]. It’s very theatrical. … It’s very campy, and it was just a bit too campy for the album as a big picture.”

Like Lambert, Brooklyn, New York, band Care Bears on Fire would love to get their song on the soundtrack. “Oh my God! It would sound awesome,” bandmate Izzy said. “[It would sound] vampire-y, duh — or werewolf-y, depending. I’d kind of like to be vampire. I feel like that’s more our sound.”

And while these artists are hoping they’ll have their shot, Muse have already hinted that after appearances on the first two films’ soundtracks, they may take up space on the third installment as well. “It’s great to have the feeling of being a new band again in so many people’s eyes or minds … we might even do something for the third one,” drummer Dominic Howard said.

Latest Twilight Eclipse Trailer reveals Kristen Stewart has a wig on: real hair chopped for another film

The shot of Kristen Stewart in one of the first trailers for the movie Twilight Eclipse has got her character Bella in a wig. You can’t help but notice how unnatural her hair looks. Instead of laying around her face, it almost looks pushed and framed.

Recently it was admitted that Kristen Stewart was using wigs as she was filming two movies back to back and wanted to chop her hair short for the Joan Jett film. So she is wearing a wig for the multi-million dollar film, Twilight Eclipse and the independent – that one is all natural.

The shot in the trailer, you can’t see the forehead or the roots as it is fluffed up and pulled too tight in the camera shot. However, it is a disappointment as her hair is definitely part of the character and was a reason people enjoyed looking at the style. SOURCE

‘The Twilight Saga: Eclipse’ clothing merchandise coming soon

Beginning May 15, Nordstrom will again sell exclusive lace trim tops, miniskirts, striped and floral dresses, skinny jeans, cardigans and plaid jackets, in the style of protagonists Bella and Alice, and priced from $30 to $58, on nordstrom.com/eclipse.
