    LOL!!
    Now that the race is out of the way... I am still wondering how will he look as Aro.. I had always imagined Aro as someone like Saruman in his younger days....

    I really hope he gave me the uncertainty that I felt when I read the book... You could never expect what would be his next step.
  • IndiesR
    hahaha...status is always first!

    But I think he will have the look...I can picture it....I'm so excited right now, cant wait for November! I hope we get to see a sneak peek of the Volutri in the trailer...that would be awesome!
  • IHowl2 - The ONLY Samske Girl
    Ah! yes... I know they should make 'em scary enough that I feel the warmth when Jake comes on screen!

    LOL
  • IndiesR
    I'm sure you'll feel the warmth when Jake comes on screen, regardless. LOL

    But I hope they dont disappoint...the Volturi need to give me nightmares, so Rob can hold me tight and make it all better. hehehehe
  • IHowl2 - The ONLY Samske Girl
    Yes! I am going to feel the warmth anyway.. Hope you are also held tight by Rob!!!

    :-)
  • IndiesR
    LOL! Oh hale yes!!!
  • IHowl2 - The ONLY Samske Girl

  • 30yearoldtwifan "Team Slade"
    Another man with a sexy accent! I love hearing him and Rob speak. Yeah I'm a Twinutter LOL


    I think AliceinWonderland sounds really good!
  • ItsRobert_Effing_Pattinson
    When they showed him talking to the class about Aro's voice, I totally thought I was going to get to hear how he did it and I got really excited. Then the people that posted the interview must have sensed that and were like "Sike!! No impersonations for you!" LOL. *sadness*
  • Marti (Just Team Kristen. <3)
    he has interesting voice / accent..
  • OC
    I am absolutely ecstatic he's playing Aro. Just saw Frost Nixon and Underworld this weekend and I have fallen in love with his remarkable ability to portray his characters so honestly. What a fantastic actor! I've become a devoted fan of his and plan to watch all his upcoming films and past too.
  • Kassielovesthecullens
    I wish he would have talked more about his role as Aro.....ergh........
  • xxobsessedxx
    BBC is great but also so annoying at times. They get to the New Moon part - I know lets cut that part off no-one will be interested. On the plus side he seems like a really good bloke.
  • RobCakes
    OMG Welsh accents = LOVE!
    I adore the way he says New Moon.. "New Moohn" hahaha <3
  • RobismyRomeo (RIMR_)
    dang it, I hate when videos are posted (ok, not really). I don't have sound at work- someone give me a brief description of what he says, pretty please?

    :o)
  • TwilightRox
    He talk a bit about his upcoming films, but only very little about New Moon, he starts talking to the kids about his voice as Aro, but then they cut it short, so we never get to hear what he says =(
    Think he's gonna be awsome as Aro!!! =)
  • RobismyRomeo (RIMR_)
    awesome, you rock! Thanks!!!
  • LaPushbabyLaPush
    Cool...Can't wait to see him in Alice In Wonderland...........Tim Burton makes the CREEPIEST movies dude!!!...............
  • RobismyRomeo (RIMR_)
    I loved Tim Burton's take on "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory".
  • LaPushbabyLaPush
    Dude....that was a GREAT one!......I'm all about Nightmare Before Christmas!!!!! Try to tell me that wasn't bada**!!!! I loved it!!!!
  • RobismyRomeo (RIMR_)
    Or the Headless Horseman? One of my friend has a tattoo of the main character from Nightmare Before Christmas. Oh.. crazy idea... can you imagine what would happen to Breaking Dawn if Tim Burton directed it???
  • greta interview excited to see him as aro :D
  • M
    I really like Michael, he can throw himself into any role and do it well. I never knew what he looked like in real life when he did the Underworld movies. Then I saw him in the Queen. I know he'll do great in New Moon, too bad there isn't any fighting of the Volturi in the books, he would do so awesome.
    I definately can see him standing the test of time in this business. Looking forward to seeing him do more. Not really a Tim Burton kind of gal, but it does sound good. Did he say which chatacter he was playing? Hmmmm, Johnny Depp as the Madd Hatter, I can sooo see that.
  • Linny
    I'm definetly seeing how he would be a great Aro! The book describes him almost like a giddy-little-kid when he gets excited about bella's ability to block jane's power.
    He gave a slight glimps into that "giddiness" in that interview - and i love his accent!!!
  • bookobsessed
    WOW!!!! Is it just me or is every New Moon cast member we see and hear about soooo nice you just want to hug them......how often does that happen?......I wonder if they know how lucky they are not to be working with at least one dick on the set..........I wish everyone I worked with was that nice. :)
  • Manz_x
    ahhh i LOVE michael sheen! he's not ENGLISH, he's WELSH!! CYMRU AM BYTH!!!

    and he's gonna be an amazing aro!
  • stelle1818
    W00P!!!! Cymru Am Byth!!

    I've never heard someone call a welsh accent sexy lol and rarely in the uk do people say they actually like the accent.

    Ahh I was soo happy when I heard he was playing Aro cause he seems like a nice guy and a great actor. absolutely love him!
  • ilovemasochist
    WOW I never heard this guy speak
    What a voice its perfect for the part
    just perfect
    *rubs hands together*
    *******exited*********
  • Claire Danvers_Morganville
    Yay, I never realised Michael Sheen was Welsh before, come on the Taffs. Suppose he never speaks with his own accent in films, I love him all the more now - yes by the way unless you didn't guess I am Welsh too. Unfortunately this is all about Tony Blair, the Beeb wouldn't have a clue how much more popular he is going to be for his role in New Moon than if he played Tony Blair 50 times.
  • Hyper-nixs - Squeeeeeeee
    Oh i love this man :)

    He's gonna be a fantastic Aro :) He can do serious roles and silly ones :) He's so down to earth and talented :) Not stuck up like some serious actors :)

    And god you've got to love a hot welshman :) Any nation that can produce Christian Bale, Anthony Hopkins and Michael Sheen....well....god bless it :)

    He worries that no one will be interested in what he has to say................................talk to me Michael :) I'll listen :)

    LMAO
  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    I'm w/ ya missy!! I love Michael... he's such an amazing actor and a hot man... I've never had this big thing on older guys 'cause well, I'm 21 but like my momma says: "Men get hotter with age" So true, so very true!
    I can't wait to see him as Aro... woohoo!!
  • Hyper-nixs - Squeeeeeeee
    The thing i love about him is he is just so so sweet :)

    You don't get a lot of sweet guys who are still hot :) But a ALL of them seem to have ended up in this movie LOL :)

  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    Oh you got that right!! We've got to be the luckiest fans in the world!! Not only did we get the HOTTEST vamps/wolves but also the most polite, sweet, charming, charismatic, and caring cast... lol... they're awesome!!

    Oooh dont go there nic!! Picturing Rob as his older, sexier (can that even be possible) self makes me.... wooohoo dont go there... hehe!!

    =]
  • Hyper-nixs - Squeeeeeeee
    LOL

    It doesn't matter if we picture it or not....it's coming eventually :) He's gonna be unbearable in a few years lol

  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    Ok, I feel I must say this first before moving on to my comment... hehe: I have this weird thing for men's voices and accents!!! There, I said it!!

    I LOVE Michael's voice... ever since I've heard him in other interviews OME... great voice/accent... just plain awesome... I can't wait to see him as Aro and the voice... God the voice... I can't wait *jumps and claps like a little girl*
  • Mare
    I'd love to hear more of his convo with the kids..he's talking about Aro and his voice and how evil he is. I want that part of the film to be shown. Maybe we should ask him on Twitter to explain what he said.. LOL
  • EdwardsLullaby
    gah! he started talking about aro but then they cut away to some blair thingy! i wanna hear about aroooo!!
