BlackBook.com recently caught up with New Moon hottie Kellan Lutz (aka Emmet Cullen) to find out what its like being an up and coming actor thats part of one of the biggest franchises around.
So I hear you’re pretty cool with the Twilight fans, who I hear can be a little much. I am extremely blessed to be a part of this franchise. I didn’t know this series and I didn’t know it had such a following. I love going to conventions. That’s why I love Will Smith. He goes to every premiere in every country. I really admire that because his fans are the ones going to his movies, and it doesn’t take much to show your appreciation. The Twilight moms made dog tags and engraved really cool things on them.
But what happens when the fans get to a Robert Pattinson-level where it’s just insane? Well, it’s crazy because with all this attention, all of us are handling it extremely well. We still have our head on our shoulders and our feet on the ground. Rob’s handling it so well. I can’t fathom being in his shoes. I believe I could handle it, but being cooped up in Vancouver and not being able to leave the hotel room or the apartment without having a driver and having to hide out—especially when he was shooting Remember Me, I talked to him a lot in New York and those fans were just crazy. I can’t imagine trying to act when you have all these people yelling your name and you’re doing an emotional scene.
Do you like doing your own stunts? I love doing my own stunts. I try and fight the producers to allow me to do stuff and of course there’s insurance reasons why we can’t, but again, I want that to be my face on screen. I don’t want them to have to blur it out if there’s a cool fighting scene. And a lot of times I can do the stunt better than the stuntman. I once had to fall ten feet from a tree and I go the wind knocked out of me. The stuntmen were like, Let all the air out before you hit the ground. It’s a learning process but I just love doing all my own stunts and I’m an action junkie. I love anything action and being on rigs and falling from buildings. I kind of want to be a stunt man too.
What’d you do ove the Labor Day weeknd? Some Eclipse cast members took some time away from filming Eclipse in Vancouver to visit LA.
Eclipse hunk Kellan Lutz was gorgeous, shirtless and sexy in Los Angeles. Ashley Greene looked stunning in red at a pool party at the Roosevelt and also found some time to chat away on her white iPhone at Jamba Juice.
Check out the rest of the pics of Kellan and Ashley and JustJaredJr.
[thanks, everyone! hope all the tech issues on EM.org and NMM.org are fixed for you now--that's how I spent my holiday weekend!]
Some New Moon cast members have been lucky enough to attend a special screening of New Moon! We previously reported that Edi Gathegi tweeted that he had watched New Moon with Stephenie Meyer! Now there are pictures surfacing of various New Moon cast members in Vancouver, attending the screening on Saturday.
Finally, here’s some beef for Team Emmett fans like myself!
New Moon star Kellan Lutz was in the HBO war miniseries Generation Kill, and these pics show him grabbing some shut-eye with a rifle close by, nearly naked with just some boxers on. Click to enlarge the pic!
After the break, check out another similar picture!
A seat filler at the Teen Choice Awards wrote up an extremely detailed account of her experience at the Teen Choice Awards last night. Among the revelations were a list of things she learned at the Teen Choice Awards–
Robert Pattinson is hilarious. (technically, I already knew that, but I was proven correct)
Nothing impresses Kristen Stewart (except for Robert Pattinson)
Taylor Lautner is bigger and has whiter teeth in person.
Nikki Reed loves Ellen Degeneres
Kellan Lutz is so huge that it’s almost scary
The seat filler, Sara, was also quite impressed with Robert Pattinson last night, of course!–
Catherine wouldn’t keep her hands off of Rob! She always had a hand on him! Either on his chest of his arm or his leg! Ew! Rob would not stop talking! The guy wouldn’t shut up! The only reason I know this is because I was watching him instead of the show. It sounds creepy, but I don’t care. He kept talking and talking and talking! Not only that, he was making jokes! Kristen and Taylor were cracking up at things he said. He laughed with them and, let me tell you, the world becomes a better place every time that man smiles.
