Nikki Talks Eclipse Fight Scenes
The actress, who plays Rosalie Cullen, had to participate in fight training six days a week for the epic battle scenes in the flick.
“It was very physically demanding – I remember getting off the airplane and getting my schedule and on my schedule it said, ”I hope the cast brought sneakers and tomorrow you will be picked up for training”, and no one told us about this, we weren”t prepared for this,” the Mirror quoted her as saying.
“Every single day if we weren”t shooting, we were in fight training for two or three hours a day and then we were in personal training,” she added.

He revealed that he doesn’t mind sitting through two hours of make-up for Twilight just yet. He stated, I really am. I haven’t really sensed an ending coming up for the Twilight saga. I don’t want it to end because I love my character. I don’t mind going through two hours of makeup and putting in those annoying contacts just to be my character, because I have this happiness when I transform into him. And to get to do two more premieres, two more press junkets and have twice as long to travel around the world to meet fans is awesome. It’s just so easy. The movies don’t take too long to shoot and it’s a nice reunion with the rest of the cast.

Robert Pattinson Tops the 10 Best Screen Vampires
Yo topping lists by our endearing Twilight movies & cast will never end right?! RIGHT!! Robert Pattinson tops Guardian‘s 10 best screen vampires!!
Robert Pattinson, The Twilight Saga (2008-)
Hard to credit, perhaps, but Stephenie Meyer’s blockbusting gothic romances have made R-Patz the most successful screen vampire of all time, outselling previous title holders Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt in the Anne Rice adaptation Interview With the Vampire. Hardened horror aficionados may balk, but hordes of Twi-hard fans have swooned to Edward Cullen’s otherworldly charms, marvelling at the way his skin glitters in the sunlight, and dreaming of dying (and being reborn) in his sensitively pallid arms. Chastity never seemed so attractive.
Click here to see who made the list!

Orange Film interviews the cast about Eclipse
Ashley Greene and Nikki Reed talk about some of their experiences of shooting the Twilight franchise. Hunky stars Kellan Lutz and Alex Meraz talk about Eclipse – and some of their craziest fan experiences. Newcomers Booboo Stewart and Xavier Samuel talk about some of their experiences of shooting Eclipse… and Booboo confesses his weirdest fan experience. Director David Slade talks about some of the challenges of bringing the third Twilight movie, Eclipse, to the big screen.
Can you believe, looking back to the first film, that this franchise has become what it’s now become?
Ashley Greene: No, I don’t think any of could have predicted how big this would become. I certainly understand why it has, because the book series is incredible, and it kind of takes you into this while other world. But I think at the time we were doing Twilight, it really had this independent feel to it and we were just really happy to be working on a project. I think each time we’re very pleasantly surprised at just how passionate the fans are and how excited they get over this.How did you get involved in Eclipse?
Booboo Stewart: I was actually involved with the Walt Disney Group a long time ago and had some friends from that. A friend called me and said there was thing on MySpace about the casting of the character Seth in the next book, so we talked about it a bit. Luckily, I got in for an audition and I was the last to be seen in the country for the call-backs. So, thank God I got the part. Everyone always asks if I had to act like a wolf, but I didn’t. I don’t think I would have gotten the part if I did.

Popsugar interviews Melissa Rosenberg about Breaking Dawn
Now that Eclipse has hit theaters and broken box office records, Twilight fans are already anxiously awaiting the next onscreen chapter in Bella and Edward’s love story: Breaking Dawn. We talked exclusively to Melissa Rosenberg, the screenwriter behind all of the Twilight films, to find out what we can expect from the final two installments. She weighed in on whether or not Bella’s childbirth scene will make it to the screen, shared her most surprising fan moment, and dished on her creative relationship with Stephenie Meyer.
PopSugar: How did you feel about the decision to split Breaking Dawn into two movies?
Melissa Rosenberg: Relief, actually, because it was going to be quite a challenge to condense such a large book into one movie. That’s always the challenge with all of these and, more so, Breaking Dawn. Having a little more room to breathe is nice . . . on the other hand, there’s also the challenge of making sure there’s enough to fill two movies.PS: We’ve heard there are some scenes you want to avoid showing on screen in Breaking Dawn. For example, Bella giving birth. Can you tell us why?
MR: That was a misquote. The childbirth — all the scenes, I feel — should be on screen. I think perhaps what I was referring to was, would we actually see Edward’s teeth through the placenta? I don’t think so. I don’t think we need to see that, and if someone needs to see that, I think they should take a look at that. [Laughs.] I believe it will be implied, but I don’t think we’ll see teeth in the placenta.
