Robert Pattinson Headed to Vancouver to Begin Work on New Moon

200903040900.jpg Celebuzz spotted Robert Pattinson at The Bar in Hollywood, CA on Monday night sipping on champagne with friends. The always respectable RPatz got a ride home from a designated driver, but the exciting news is this-

Hopefully the star got some shut eye, as Pattinson told the group he’s headed to Vancouver, BC today to begin production on New Moon, the sequel to the blockbuster Twilight.

That means that Pattinson should be in Vancouver any day now–if not already–to begin work on New Moon. It’s really starting to feel official now!

Robert Pattinson Doesn’t Drink and Drive [thanks for the tip, Barbara L.]

    SOOOOO HOT!!!!!!!!!

    They aren't filming in Oregon because Harrison Ford is in a movie that was already committed to being filmed in the same vicinity..and there are so many "crew" people being used up for that-that they don't have enough to film both. I'm sure certain scenes that have identifiable backdrops (the high school, the Cullens house, Charlie's house) are all still going to be used...and don't worry about the movie being "rushed" --most movies only take 2-3 months to film...it's those with tons of special effects (aka Harry Potter) that take much much longer. New Moon really only has the werewolves effects to deal with...so that shouldn't take them THAT much longer. If the filming ends mid-June/early July...that leaves PLENTY of time to edit/fix/re-shoot whatever what missed for a November release date. Same theory applies to Eclipse..if they start filming in the fall--there's more than enough time to have it ready for next summer. Everyone is SOOO worried about these movies being rushed...but in reality--Edward doesn't ever age!! None of the vampires do--so they cannoit exactly sit back and slowly process these movies. On top of which--they need to strike while they can with getting the actors to commit. Kristen and Rob (and whoever else) will only be getting busier and busier with now being in "demand".

    Above: I mean film not file in my first sentence.
  • karenann
    I wish they would file in original locations also. But hopefully they found a good location for the La Push scenes. Almost half the book seems to be located there. I'm 60 years old and saw Twilight 12 times. Hope New Moon is also great.. Time and Money, I hope it dosn't interfere with the store. Rather they take the time and money to do it right.

  • nomesters
    am I the only one that is happy they are moving to Vancouver? I dunno, it will be cheaper to film there and stuff, and it has the right landscape and stuff too. It's a beautiful place. Why is he headed there now though, don't they start in like three weeks? (Not that I am complaining)

    I KNEW IT! I saw it in my dream and now it's actually starting! Weet Weet! lol
    I'm so excited i can barely contain myself. It's hard to feel bad about Solomon when the movie is starting to film!
  • gracen

    oh my gosh..robert looks soo cute!! hehe..i am also very excited on the upcoming movie..and also for eclipse! really can't wait...i hope they're going to make breaking dawn into a movie though...with the original casts.
  • I think I read somewhere the other day that Stephenie sold the rights to summit for Breaking Dawn so there it will definately be made into a film-whoop whoop!
  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    That's my Vamp/Man!!
    Oh gosh I just can't wait anymore... the closer they get to shooting, the more anxious I get... damn this OCD lol!!
    I agree about the rushing thing... all I want is a good movie even if that would mean a little more waiting on my part... I hope the movie is GREAT!!!

  • mljhasOCD
    Yay! I am so excited for this movie!
  • Wow...it really is starting to feel more official. I wasn't a fan this time last year (boy I didnt know what I was missing)...so I missed all the excitement following the first one. So I am so excited to be a part of it this time around. Just the thought of them working on the film gets me hyped up all over again.
  • I'm in the same boat as you Elaine I only got sucked into the Twilight world in January this year so I miss out on everything the last time. But now this time I'm searching web everyday for news on whats happening, I think I have OCD! lmao
  • Irial
    I'm usually not one for swooning over rob, unless he is in his EC character, but this picture makes me want to run up and give him a hug, he looks he looks so cuddleable here!

    and yes it is about time they started filming, let New Moon begin!

  • Me too! tho technically Im form Belfast but still British, He's a diamond in the rough from the uk, so down to earth and laid back and anyone should be proud that he is in "part "representing the uk! I think he's a brilliant actor and I can't wait to see what he does in the future!

    Go Rob for not drinking and driving. :) I am so excited that they'll start filming soon.... I'm gunna miss the parts where Edward isn't in it, but when Bella and Alice go get him in Volterra.... all my sadness will be gone. :) I don't mind them rushing on the next two movies, as long as they keep it close to the book as possible, and hopefully with Steph there that'll happen. Oh, and they need to take their time on Breaking Dawn!!!! That's the best!!!
  • Susie
    I'm ok with the rushing on New Moon and Eclipse just as long as they take their time on Breaking Dawn and make it a 3 hour movie
  • Happy Days, I am so excited, I mean look at the direction job Chris done on "The Golden Compass" I really do believe that New Mon will be Better than Twilight, bigger budget and better director, I will miss Edward when he's not in it *sniffle sniffle* LMAO

  • Lainaaa
    about freaking time! stop promoting and start shooting!
    I agree about the rushing thing.. I really want New Moon but if you're going to only be shooting from April til what end of summer? maybe earlier? What's the point in that?
  • anne
    ahh finally! i hope they get it nicely done, given the short time they have. (making the film in less than a year, which some great movies just use for planning) ughhh why they heck are they rushing .. :(
