Nikki Reed Says Chris Weitz Has “Different Approach” to New Moon

in Chris Weitz, Nikki Reed

Nikki reed Nikki Reed has a new interview with MTV where she talks about the oddity of pretending to hate her good friend Kristen Stewart while acting in the Twilight Saga, and also how she thinks Chris Weitz is changing New Moon compared to Twilight—

Reed’s early discussions with Weitz have focused mainly on Rosalie’s hair, as well as the evolving look of the whole Cullen family. But keeping in line with Stewart’s recent revelation that the “New Moon” cliff-dive will be CGI, she said the new director seems determined to take the look of “Twilight” to a new level.

“Chris is great, and he’s got a different approach to this film,” she revealed. “I think there’s a progression with the special effects and stuff, with Jacob being introduced as a werewolf. I think everyone is walking into this knowing there is going to be a more heightened level of effects.”

But if you’re afraid that “New Moon” might lose some of the human element, don’t worry. Reed was quick to remind us that her character’s tumultuous relationship with Bella remains unchanged.

“Obviously, Rosalie hates her in ['New Moon'],” Reed smiled. “Hopefully, we don’t laugh too much while we are making it.”

    I think it will look like an actual movie with this.
    As in, well thought out and serious.
    For Twilight they experimented

    I think Chris will do a great job on New Moon...when the actors/actresses in the movie step out and say he's doing it well...then it's got to be an okay job at the least. He doesn't have an easy job, I agree there....but I think he's going to pull it off and I think we'll be shocked at the final outcome.
  • I must say that I enjoy Chris much more than I did Catherine. My fear of the flim adaptation isn't quite a high this time around, and New Moon is my favorite! I can't wait to see what Chris does with the effects. His job certainly isn't a simple one. I wouldn't want to be in his shoes.

    I am starting to like this director choice more and more. Sooooo EXCITED!

    I'm always glad to hear that NM will be much better and it's also good to know that they will stick to the conflicts in the book... even if it breaks my heart!!!
  • i cant wait for new moon i know it will be great and i cant wait too see the whole cast back together on the set working on new moon again i know it will be great
  • katty
    I believe that Chris'll do great job with New Moon. It's going to be a great movie. I just can't wait to see it. I think that NM will be much better than Twilight couse they have highest budget. I feel that Chris is collaborating with actors very well and this is really important thing in making movie.

    I saw a bit of the Golden Compass it was so beautiful and what I hear it's finally sounding like the epic that it is, I loved Catherine's work but what's coming needs that Epic touch.

    I think Chris is going to do a wonderful job with New Moon. I'ts already sounding MUCH better than Twilight! I can't wait to see the effects come to life on the big screen, and I think we'll all be pretty happy with what Chris does (Anything's got to be better than what Catherine did to Twilight! sorry,but true). Have faith in him!
    To bring up one of the terrible effects in Twilight...The one where Bella's piggy-back on Edward and he's running up the hill with her super-fast...I thought that looked absolutely ridiculous, to the point that I was actually rolling my eyes and shaking my head in embarassment for Cath.
    That said, I truly believe Chris is gonna do us proud! (Let's hope)
  • he has really a hard work to do and i hope they do a good job and don´t ruin it going far from the books
  • nomesters
    I agree. It's good to know his approach is different, that he is taking the effects and make-up more seriously, but we wont know it this will be better than Catherine's until some footage actually comes out. Chris has a lot on his plate, and I cant wait to see what he does.
  • IndiesR
    Well, that's good to know...but how will it portray on screen...I really have high expectations for NM, I really hope Chris can deliver, I dont want another let-down (Sorry Catherine, love u, but Twilight left alot to be desired)
  • i totally agree, and I hadn't even read the book before Twilight came out and I felt that there was something left wanting. The book is way better. I'm a Twinoob. :)
