Interview with New Moon Star Jackson Rathbone – Jasper Hale

by Will on July 13, 2009 · Comments

There’s a new interview with Jackson Rathbone and his band 100 Monkeys, and while most of the interview is about the band there are a couple of mentions of the projects Jackson is currently working on–

To feed the elephant in the room, Jackson, can you tease anything about “New Moon” for the yearning “Twilight” fans out there?
Jackson: It’s gonna be raging…action-packed, more steamy romance. You get to see a lot more crazy stuff happening. We went deeper into the world now, and it’s gonna be a fun thrill ride for everyone.
Also, filming recently wrapped in Pennsylvania for M. Night Shyamalan’s “The Last Airbender.” What was that experience like, Jackson?
Jackson: It’s been incredible, a great set. I really believe we’re making a film that’s going to be epic. It’s gonna move people. I think the movie’s gonna turn out beautiful.

[thanks, Bean!]

CJean>Leader of Team Leg Hitch

RobismyRomeo (RIMR_)
Thank you! There are more-- like Lali_Whitlock-- curly533--Lady Hale

But I always think of our girl bean first!

:0)

bean... I neeeeeeed iiiittt!
Aw, shucks!

*blushes*

CJean>Leader of Team Leg Hitch
I know, I love them all! :)

agava CW4BD
DAMMIT!!!!!

Exclamation marks, huh??????

Congrats on first :))

RobismyRomeo (RIMR_)
I haven't had first in a LONG while-- it was just my time :0)

agava CW4BD
LoL

that's OK if it makes you happy, it makes me happy LOL

just enjoy your another first time **wink**

RobismyRomeo (RIMR_)
LOL!

we both know once we get the first out of the way, there are far and few in between!

Mr_Darcy
Jackson called Last Airbender epic

YES!!!!

*dances around in an entirely undignified manner*

And congratulations on first

*dances pleasantly in an entirely dignified manner*

RobismyRomeo (RIMR_)
thank you for switching your undignified-dignified dancing ways for me!

I like M. Night Shymalan films, and for jackson to call it epic is super exciting!

*attempts dancing in any kind of manner, but fails*

bean... I neeeeeeed iiiittt!
I hope by 'epic' he means that it's gonna be three hours long (2 hours and 59 minutes of which feature Jackson)...

Mr_Darcy
And I will be in that theatre opening night riveted to the screen for every second of it. Hale yes.

WolfPackChick (WPC)
It doesn't come out until NEXT JULY according to IMDB.com!! I was kind of hoping it was going to be at least a Christmas release. So sad!

<3 <3 <3

Mr_Darcy
I know. Its awful isn't it.

Filming is already complete. And they need a YEAR to do pickups and post-production.

All I'm going to say is that if we have to wait this long it better be the biggest trilogy since Lord of the Rings.

Patience Isn't My Specialty
Bye Mr. Darcy! Talk to you tomorrow.

Mr_Darcy
Talk to you later

Patience Isn't My Specialty
Morning Mr. Darcy!
I just wanted to let you know that today I won't come on as much as I usually do...Only if there is a wolf post, then screw work! lol
And 4tw will be out most of the day too! So watch out for vamps!
If you must, use your Darcy skillz to dazzle them so that you can get away without them attacking you :P

Have fun!

bean... I neeeeeeed iiiittt!
Woohoo! Congrats RIMR! Thanks for the shout-out.

Jeez, what have I got myself into?! That sounds like hard work!

*drifts off to think about perks of the job*

Lali [T. Jacksper in Uniform!]
YES!!
You're the official spokesperson of us, Jasper's lovers!! And you can be our leader too LOL
It seem we are talking about some sect, or something like that LOL

We are so proud of you! =)

CJean>Leader of Team Leg Hitch
Oh, there are many perks in store for you, I'm sure. hehe
And even though you might be the oldest, you are the wisest. lol :)

They're just picking themselves up from the floor. Jackson news is such a rare occurence, it takes a while to get over the shock.

I sent this in though so was better prepared than my teammates!

CJean>Leader of Team Leg Hitch
LMAO!! At least you are always so happy for the Jackson news. With all the Rob news lately, I've been losing my enthusiasm. I know...what the hell is wrong witth me?!!?

Lali [T. Jacksper in Uniform!]
I think my dear, that everybody is tired of all those news about Rob in Remember me Set day 1454 and stuff LOL

And of course, nothing is wrong with you besides the fact that you're a freak, you know? LOL

ForTheLove
Haha I know what you mean. I love Rob, but lately it's:

Rob on set of Remember Me in Suit

Rob on set of Remember Me in Plaid shirt

Rob on set of Remember Me Smiling

...eating ice cream

...all beat up

..walking

..breathing

..looking at the clouds

I can only handle so much. I feel like I've seen the whole movie already.

Lali [T. Jacksper in Uniform!]
ROFLMAO!

Exactly! The movie will have no surprises LOL

ForTheLove
I know. During the film - he'll walk down the street and fans will lean over and whisper "Hey this was shot July 7th at 3:47 pm."

Lali [T. Jacksper in Uniform!]
OMJ! I'm laughing like a lunatic!! hahahahahahahaha

I bet that this will happen! ROFLMAO!

CJean>Leader of Team Leg Hitch
**pouts**
I am not a freak! You are, so there.
**sticks tongue out at Lali like a five-year old** ;)
LMAO
No, but seriously I want to see some Rob interviews or something like that...not him holding a coffee cup. Well, beggars can't be choosers. At least we have some news. :)

Lali [T. Jacksper in Uniform!]
Yes, I just wake up... because I fainted after see the headline LOL

CJean>Leader of Team Leg Hitch
Ha!! Enjoy your spoils! :)

I would say it looks a little on the small side.... but I don't want that to be misconstrued! ;)

Sparks_TeamPellan
LOL
Your looking at it the wrong way...just adjust the position of the guitar!

Too bad that star in the pic is where it is.....

bean... I neeeeeeed iiiittt!
LMAO! That sure is a big star.... ;)

OhHowiWishiCouldSing

lol!! i really wanna see what he looks like as Sokka!!!

bean... I neeeeeeed iiiittt!
Me too! There's been a couple of pics of him out and about with his Sokka hairstyle but I wanna see the full costume!

Mr_Darcy
I know. I check imdb for Avatar news almost as often as I check this place.......nothing. We've got Noah Ringer and Dev Patel, but where is Jackson.

I think they're saving him for later b/c he's going to be such a blockbuster the moment the shot is revealed.

bean... I neeeeeeed iiiittt!
I do the same, but.... still nothing! All we're asking for is one little picture... just one!

Ok, I would prefer 50, but one will do.

*smiles sweetly*

Majnona (H.N)
ok, you wished for one, and your wish just came true..!

Woo a Jackson post, I have missed his crazy a**! Which reminds me *must go and watch headbutting Westwick clip again* ;) lol

"To feed the elephant in the room, Jackson, can you tease anything about “New Moon” for the yearning “Twilight” fans out there?"

Jackson: "It’s gonna be raging…action-packed, more steamy romance"

Ding Ding Ding... I'd say that is the correct answer!!!

lol

bean... I neeeeeeed iiiittt!
Oh Kim, the headbutt! Haven't watched that in a while....

*skips off to watch The Headbutt for 100 times in a row*

Patience Isn't My Specialty

That's what the trains are for! Take a field trip. The worst it could be is maybe a 2 hour trip one way. Go with a friend and make a day of it.

JTSTeam Swiss
it's not the train ride. the city is only ~45 mins away; it's about not being able to go bc of a crazy word schedule...grrrrrrrrrrrrr

Speaking of Jackson, I found out that all the episodes of Beautiful People, the TV drama that he starred in are now on YouTube!! I loved the show years ago when it was on and LOVED jackson on it...he's so cute with his curly brown hair around his face :) Everyone check it out...he was great in the series!!
