E! Online talks a bit about how the songs for the Twilight soundtrack were chosen–and the process for the New Moon soundtrack one. Basically, anything is up in the air to be included, and it could even turn out to be a bit more adventerous.

The songs for New Moon haven’t been nailed down yet—the flick is still in preproduction after all—but do I have some gossip on the movie anyway? You bet.

First, some background. When it comes to Twilight’s soundtrack, you may credit legendary music supervisor Alexandra Patsavas, who has also curated the music for TV shows The OC, Roswell, Chuck, Mad Men and Without a Trace. Patsavas is also on board to supervise the sound for New Moon. Now the gossip…

The new director, Chris Weitz, has been sending out signals that he may be open to a more experimental soundtrack than his predecessor. That could mean songs that sparkle even more than the movie’s vampires when they get caught in the sun.

“I think that might be the way it’s going,” says Marisa Baldi, West Coast partner for Zync, a music brokerage that funneled two songs onto the Twilight soundtrack. “I get the vibe that the guy is a little more into being surprised…everything is really open, and he wants to hear a lot of cool music.”

I’m all for a more experimental soundtrack–the Twilight soundtrack was great, but with the higher profile of New Moon it needn’t rely on big names, what matters is how it fits the mood of the movie. Speaking of the soundtrack, coming soon will be a huge new soundtrack poll, with a runoff between the winners of our free-for-all poll from last month. Plus, you might so a couple of suggestions for what we’d like to see on the soundtrack as well!

What’s the Scoop on the Next Twilight Soundtrack?

So many TwiHunks, so little time. This time, we have the shaggy-haired rocker Jackson Rathbone who will re-vamp (see what I did there?) his role as the inimitable Jasper Hale in New Moon. Drool over the rest of the pics at Jackson-Rathbone.com.

With all the Jane casting rumors, and the heated debate over who would be right for the part in yesterday’s post about Lucy Hale, we thought it’d be fun to run a poll about who should play Jane. If you picked “Someone else”, be sure to list who in the comments!

An update to the casting call that was posted on Craiglist–the three-city casting call for Native American/Aboriginal actors for a “major motion picture” is also taking place in two other Canadian cities besides Vancouver–

JJJ Reports the Lucy Hale tried for the role of Jane but didn’t get the part–

Privileged’s Lucy Hale just dished to Twist magazine that not only did Dakota Fanning audition for Jane in New Moon, but she did too!

The 19-year-old actress shared with the mag, “Well, I did read [for the role of Jane]. We had some talks about it. But I think they just offered it to Dakota Fanning, the role I was interested in. Which is great – I’m a huge fan of her! So, I think she’ll probably take that. And I mean, as of right now, I’m not sure if it’s going to work out. But I’m definitely still going to see it!”

Thank god. I don’t know about you, but can you say not right for the part?

Ok, so we’ve seen the $16 Edward Cullen Action Figure from NECA, and the $140 Edward and Bella Dolls from Tonner. Well, now it looks like NECA is making an action figure of Bella that will go for the lower price as well. Cheesy jokes, fortunately, are not included.
