Malicious Mandy has an awesome summary of Chaske Spencer’s Q&A during the Seattle Twilight Convention this past weekend -
- His Fave part of New Moon wasn’t a part he was in but when Rob & Daniel fight. Also, any part with Michael Sheen, who he idolizes. He said he was so psyched when he met Sheen and finds him to be so powerful an actor. When a fan clarified they wanted to know the fave scene in New Moon that HE was in, he said it was the cliff jumping scene, but credited Chris Weitz with making it look so cool adding, “I’m not that cool”
- When asked about a specific funny moment on set he recalled while rehearsing at the “wolf house” Dreamy Taylor comes to the door to see them all eating and Bella is there and he is supposed to have those sexy eyes… and as he walked up the screen door slammed into his face. Ha Ha.
- If he could trade places with anyone he picks Michael Sheen. He’s a huge fan and has seen all his stuff and appreciates his diversity, calling him an amazing actor with tons of knowledge… a class act.
- His reaction when he found out he had the part was to fall on his knees and thank god! He had been working but hadn’t landed a job and was wondering if he should give up or what.
- He said the audition was fast… often there are multiple call backs and auditions with studio and directors etc but this was quick and he had auditioned for Paul and Jared and when they told him Sam he thought “Who is Sam?” then he read it and was excited.
- He said it was such a secret and he was so excited he didn’t want to have it leak or get in trouble so he didn’t even tell his family. He would go to resturants with the guys in Vancouver and they’d whisper and be excited about it together. He was reading the books but secretly so he wouldn’t be seen with the books, he took the secret so seriously.

- To prepare for his role he had 6 meals a day plus protein shakes. He wanted to gain mass more than be “cut” He is still continuing to get bigger for Breaking Dawn. His daily cycle is protein shakes, eating, going to the gym resting, repeating. Even on weekends he will run or swim. It’s been hard having a month off he is is back at it again hard now. He says getting it off is easy, putting it on is hard…. to which he admitted “wrong crowd” (as all the women groaned, wishing that was their problem ha ha)
- He said he had started at about 175 lbs. got up to about 190 lbs. and hopes to reach 210 lbs
- His fave Cullen? He says they are all cool. It’s a great cast they are all humble. No one really knew most of them before Twilight and they are all great. He says Peter is a class act and a good guy who he admires because he balances his life, wife, kids, he’s a great family man who has been around a long time. He loves Tinsel she is like the mother – hen and they got along great and hung out a lot to build chemistry.
- He says kissing scenes are always awkward but he and Tinsel got along great and she is a beautiful and talented woman, musician, and she’s fun to hang out with. They went to coffee to get to know each other before filming and had to kiss a few times while the boys are goofing off, but after a few it was all good and during Eclipse they were like old pro’s.
- He compares New Moon and Eclipse filming saying he missed his boys in between and when they left for a few weeks he was lonely. He would walk Robson Street alone, and look forward to going to the gym with Tyson. When they were reunited for Eclipse he described it as going back to school after summer break… lot’s of high fives, going out for lunch, dinner, the club. They all keep in contact. He even talked about how they want to all go get a tattoo together after it’s all over.
