200903301222.jpg EntertainmentWise has a new interview with Ashley Greene where she says that she is looking forward to the expanded role she plays in New Moon compared to Twilight–

“You see the relationship between Bella and Alice and the relationship between Edward and Alice strengthen as well.

“Compared to the first film it’s a much larger part for me, so yeah I’m excited.”

Ashley also reveals that there is a strong bond between the actors off screen as well as on, with the cast regularly participating in group hang-outs to take the edge off work.

She adds, “We work long, long days and then get off and go out to eat, or go shopping together, or play music. We all kind of became this close knit family.”

The Alice Cullen-actress also talks about dance lessons she’s taken for Twilight!

    She's the only actress that they casted correct. She fits the role perfectly and always has a smile on her face. She is very friendly and much nicer than all the other actors *cough* Kristin * cough.*
  • lol i agree, she radiates alice doesn't she? and she is so friendly. i wonder about the dance lessons tho...alice is graceful and almost every movement she does it looks like she dancing so i guess it makes sense that she's trying to work on that. i think she did great tho. im sooooooooo looking forward to see more of the friendship between her and bella cause u cant see it on twilight.

    That was one of the major disappointments for me in Twilight, the lack of relationship between Bella and Alice. The bond b/w those two was one of the best parts of that book and the movie did not capture that AT ALL. I know they were tight on money, but seriously, how much extra would it have cost to shoot the pre-prom scene at the Cullen's (the way it is in the book), on an already made set, than it was to just show her walking down the stairs at her house? I was really bummed out that they didn't play up the relationship b/w them, but glad to hear it will be visible in New Moon :) .

    That's so true Rose, there were so many instances in the first book that could of been. She should have had a "Much Larger Part" already in Twilight. But oh well, At least we'll see her more as it should be in New Moon

    What's sweet is how they are bonding more and more in realty just like a family.
  • mickey_lamb
    she is a beautiful girl and i am happy for her!
  • KINALuvzWolves
    I was disappointed too! In the book when Bella meets Alice at the house she says how friendly Alice is and how she makes her feel so happy and welcome. In the movie, KStew looked creeped out and borderline annoyed by Alice. I was so confused. I can't wait to see more of Ashley! She's one of my faves!
  • Majnona (H.N)
    OMG now that's something to look forward to. I thought they'd never did justice to Alice/Bella , Alice/Edward relationship in Twilight. They didn't even bother to give us hints whatsoever.

    I love Ashley. She alwayes has this positive, enthusiastic vibe to her just like Alice :)
  • dani
    i can't wait for her larger part in New Moon! she's going to be great!

  • Maryann
    Can I just say I think Ashley Green is just adorable? She seems like such a cutie lol. She is perfect for Alice who's one of my fave Twilight characters! I look fwd to see her in a bigger role in New Moon!
  • twifan

  • WetDishRag (AKA deedee81)
    Ashley is beezer!

    I love how down to earth she is. I can't wait to see the bigger bond that starts to happen in New Moon and other films, especially since Bella always refers to her as "Edwards favourite sister"
  • Karla_Cullen

    Hi! I am here posting for the first time. Sorry for my English - I'm not an American or an English (I'm Czech:-), so I still do grammar mistakes, but here is one thing I really want to share. I think it's really great, that we will see the bond between Bella-Edward-Alice. I just got one cool idea - I think - and I have to post it and know your opinions:-) What came on my mind isn't in the book and I guess it won't be in the movie this way, but it's a thought I can't get of my head:-) ... I heard many fans had complained, that in Twilight we didn't see the tenderness of the Bella and Edward's relationship (I think it was displayed quite well, but that doesn't belong here:-D), and those fans hope, that in the beginning of the New Moon, we will see this tenderness etc, before the cruel break-up... Here's my idea, how to show the tenderness in the movie:-) I imagine a scene, where Edward is in Bella's room, like waiting for her before they go to school or something (it's a while since I've read the book, so I'm not sure where exactly put this scene;-), and in the Twilight movie there was like huge wooden noticeboard with paintings above the Bella's desk in her room. But this time, the board is filled with hundreds of photos of Edward and Bella together, than like Edward and his family, Bella with Alice and Emmett and Jasper, Carlisle etc. Maybe there might be something like small piece of score with notes written by Edward for Bella (the lullaby, of course:-D). Edward is just waiting in the room for Bella, so he's looking at these pictures, smiling and remembering the moments. Then Bella comes in and she realize, what Edward is doing, she smiles for herself. Then they smile at each other, Bella walks to Edward, he hugs her and kiss her gently on the forehead. "I like this one," says Bella and point at one picture of Edward (of course, some really cute one;-). "Mmm, I like this one more," Edward responses and point at another picture, where is Bella smiling sitting in the meadow... And after the break-up, when Bella comes back to her room, all these pictures would be gone - only message left "It will be as if I'd never existed"... ooo, I'm cruel:-D I know according to the book, that Bella gets her own camera on her birthday, but I'm sure that Cullens are wealthy enough to have their own (:-D), so that Bella and Edward could take pictures. ... Well, so that's the idea. I know, that in the movie, it definitely wouldn't be like this, that they will stick by the book, but... I had to write it here:-D So, what do you think?:-D
  • Rose
    I like it! I think it sounds cute....and yes very cruel!
  • IndiesR
    Not bad, very imaginative. :)

    Also, in the beginning of NM, before the breakup, Bella did mention that she had the happiest summer anyone in the world ever had, so they could use some of that too to emphasize Bella and Edwards relationship. :)
  • Majnona (H.N)
    Nice :)
  • mlj (Team Pea Coat)
    Makes me more ezxcited for the movie to come out.....
  • dana
    I really really love ashely greene. I can't wait to see her in a bigger part, she's perfect as alice.
  • hannah
    ashley rocks!!!aliceis my MOST favourite female character, and she got TOO little part of movie in twilight, they haven't show bella and alice as friends at all. she, alongside with robert THE BEST in cast.can't wait for new moon!!!!
  • sassy
    Everytime I see Ashley I feel good..She is such a positive person... We are so lucky to have her in Twilight... She, Kellan, peter and Rob are my favorite twilight stars...
  • IndiesR
    Yeah Ashley, looking forward to seeing you too, and the yellow porche, bring on NM! :)
  • Ms.hotforKellan
    woohoo ashley!! i feel good too whenever i see her pic or something. shes just great. so happy right now.
  • Love her! Can't wait to see more of her in New Moon.
  • noemi
    i really love her and i think she was cast perfectly. im really looking forward to seeing her have more of a part in this movie. although im just wondering about it just because the cullens r gone for so long, they r only in the begining and pretty much the end of the book. it is assumed that bella will have fluttering images of edward so they can keep him more active in the movie. so i'm wondering how they plan to make the bond betwwen bella and alice stronger so the fans can see how strong a friendship they have. oh well i guess we shouldn't worry right..... i just want nov.20 to come already so i dont have to think about all these little questions.... im sure it's gonna be great.
  • nomesters
    Well this is nice to know. I was worried about this, the lack of development in their relationship. Hopefully some time will be dedicated in the beginning of the movie to show their relationship, maybe some scenes at school? I just love it when Alice comes back to Forks, and how incredibly happy it makes Bella. I always cry at that part of the book, when Bella walks into her house and Alice is there waiting for her, and then the conversations they have there, and on the plane, in Italy, etc.

    im sure they have all of this well thought out. we just have to wait of course. but i agree that they will show the friendship get stronger throughout the movie. and it will help for eclipse. i cant wait. and i loved it to when alice comes back it was like seeing an old friend.....
  • bebe
    ashley is fit to alice characters.

    why they can't replace rosalie to someone that really have beuty by nature, i mean the studio making joke of rosalie with taking nikki reed.

    i love ashley, she seem so friendly with media and fans, she is really understand that she is doing it while all the cast like forgotten who feed them, i am sorry i am soo rude..

    but ashley is the best with jackson and kellan, they were really friendly...
