Twilight Stars Promoting Third Film
from vancouver.24hrs.ca:If you hadn’t guessed from the dark bags under their eyes, the vampires of Twilight don’t sleep. (And you thought they were just being intense and mysterious.)
Good thing, too. The way the franchise is churning out sequels, there’s no time to nap.
Consider: Just seven months after The Twilight Saga: New Moon broke box-office records, amassing nearly $500 million worldwide in less than a month, the next instalment, Eclipse, arrives June 30. For some perspective, the cast had already wrapped the third movie in Vancouver before they kicked off their promotional tour for the second one.
This article also speculates that Breaking Dawn will, in fact, be two movies.

from thedeadbolt.com:
Since the release of the Twilight sequel New Moon, centering on the love triangle between the New Moon characters of Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner, millions of Twilight Saga fans have seen almost everything from the hit film. Although much ofNew Moon has appeared online, there are still a few deleted New Moon scenes floating around the Twilight web.
New Moon, the second film in the Twilight Saga, has been one of the biggest money makers of 2009 grossing over $660 million worldwide at the box office. Given the popularity ofNew Moon and all things Twilight, New Moon is still one of the most popular films as we head into 2010. Twilighters still have to wait until New Moon hits DVD and Blu-ray in 2010, but we have two still shots from New Moon deleted scenes that found their way online.
New Moon Look-Alike Getting Hit Up for Pix
from kansas.com:It’s hard to muster up too much sympathy for the plight of Austin Clay, a 21-year-old QuikTrip employee and WSU student who at the moment can’t get women to leave him alone.
Poor Austin. Born with an angular jaw, brooding eyes, superior bone structure and a striking resemblance to one of Hollywood’s most panted-over movie stars.
We learned about Austin from his mom, Dixie, who called The Eagle last week to report that her son bore such a striking resemblance to floppy-haired “Twilight” vampire Robert Pattinson that he wasn’t getting any peace these days.
You don’t understand, Dixie said. He doesn’t look just kind of like him. He looks just like him.
Remember Me Poster Released
Kristen Stewart to Possibly Play Opposite George Clooney
from entertainmentandshowbiz.com:Kristen Stewart is being rumored to play a computer hacker, starring opposite George Clooney for an upcoming adaptation of the Swedish film trilogy Millennium. The story will be adapted from Swedish author Stieg Larsson’s books.
Kristen would portray a highly intelligent but antisocial and violence-prone chick who is into computer hacking and stuff. Sounds sexy eh? However; Natalie Portman and Ellen Page have both expressed interest in the role, so life is going to be tough for Kristen if she wants the role too.
I am thrilled to hear more positive speculation about Breaking Dawn being split into two films! That really is the only way to bring that big ol’ book to the big screen with any justice.
I don’t doubt that there will be lots of babies named for Twilight characters in the next several years, nor the fact that it has already begun. Jacob was near the top of the list for 2009.
What do you think of the deleted images? If you have the movie companion that came out before the movie release, these won’t be new to you. Do you think that the images that they have released might be hints to what we’ll see in the deleted scenes of the DVD?
LOL @ the Robert Pattinson look-alike! I’ve heard that there’s one at a Walgreen’s in my hometown, but I have yet to see him.
Interesting rumor about Kristen Stewart and George Clooney, but I can’t help but wonder if it’s just gossip being created because of Anna Kendrick’s tremendous success in her film with him. I have this image of gossip mongers out there trying to create a feud between the two actresses…they are capable of anything.
