EW.COM: ‘NEW MOON’ MOVIE TIE-IN BOOK COVER REVEALED

Posted June 23rd, 2009 By: Evie 79 Comments »

Entertainment Weekly has some super exciting news to share with us! The New Moon cover has been released for the movie tie-in cover. So we have some never before seen artwork to share with you:

See it full size in our gallery, here.

Attention Team Jacob: Little, Brown has revealed their cover for the movie tie-in edition of New Moon, which features an exclusive image from the Twilight franchise’s second film. Taylor Lautner fans should certainly pick up more than a few copies (Those arms! That smoldering stare! Remember, he’s only 17!). As for Team Edward…well, at least the image proves that the moon is not, in fact, made of green cheese.

I am so excited about this cover, I cannot stop staring at it. At first I was totally shocked, I think my draw dropped open. As a proud Team Edward member, I can’t believe how Jacob is holding Bella. After that first reaction though, I do like it. I like how you see Edward’s face, as it is always present in Bella’s mind. I like too, the wolf pack in the background.

What do you think of the cover? Does it surprise you? Was it what you expected?

It angers me too, because i’m Team Edward all the way, but the thing is we need to be fair, Bella needed Jacob when Edward left, he picked the pieces and put her back together, and that is what both the book and the movie are about.
I hate that Edward seems to be an angry ghost here, but look at how Broken Bella seems.
it truly is painful to see. and I must admit taylor nailed down the Jacob bit.. he looks everything Jacob should at this point of the story..
but I wanted to see more Edward just the same.

btw, what is a tie-in book?

This cover is amazing!!
It really shows the fans that have not read the book what New Moon is about! Its exciting stuff!!
I love how Jacob is holding Bella, and how she is holding onto Jacob and holding herself together… ( like she holds herself together in the book ) Clever!!
I love how they have portrayed Jacob as the protector which is what he is supposed to do wolfe form and human form as he is in the book…
Bella looks really lost and you can tell that she is seeking comfort and is kinda looking for Edward, and for those of you who have not read the book… it shows them what to expect… more jacob!
Edward looks scary… but if you think about it, if he doesn’t feed much when he leaves her hes not supposed to look healthy is he? Plus he is supposed to be angry in Bella’s mind when she does dangerous stuff to hear his voice… so yeah it makes sense!
The eerie background totally works, as New Moon is more about secrets unveiling and is all about the loss of Edward from Bella’s life.. as she says in the book its like she died, they portrayed this really well.
The people in the background… so mysterious which totally works because it leaves us hanging… are they werevolves? or are they vampires?
Cannot wait for New Moon to come out… its going to be on a totally new level to twilight!!
WOOO!

LOVE ITTTTT. I love the way Jacob has his arms protectively around Bella. With Edward’s “presence” looming in the background…not to be forgotten. And Bella looking sad with her arms around herself, leaning on Jacob. Just love it. Nice job. Can’t wait til November.

I love the cover! It’s absolutely perfect! I’m definitely going to get me a copy of it!
HOlly

OMG OMG!! THIS cover is perfect!!! absolutely incredible. It really fits the book from beginning to end. I actually thought we would see a cover of her laying in the woods with Edward walking away after he had left her. BUT THIS!! OMG THIS is amazingly beautiful! NOT in shock at all. I love Edwards look of anger (if that is what you want to call it) In the moon and the pack behind Jacob and Bella.. I Love the look on Bella’s face as if she is not ready to be without Edward, so is keeps Jacob close to help her through. Let me say it again. I LOVE THIS COVER!

I think this is a perfect visual to accompany the book. Everything that New Moon is, is in this poster. At least the majority of the book. Bella and Jacob, Edward in the background. Perfect.

I am continually thrown for a loop on how awesome Taylor is as Jacob. I supported him in a letter to Summit, and I would imagine they are plenty happy they recast him. He absolutely SMOLDERS in this poster. What a good place for Bella to be. He looks more than capable to be offering comfort!

Your all going to hate me but i prefer this book cover to the actual movie poster. To me, this shows much more about the relationship between bella and jacob and you can see how vunerable bella is. you can also see edward which is obv amazing. and i like the way the pack are sort of ‘crawling’ up the cliff thing.
i really like this, better than the movie poster me thinks.
bring on november!
bri

um, this angers me a little, this is more like a book cover for Eclipse Bella IS NOT all over Jacob in New Moon!!! wtf!!
Laural

My first thought was WOW. Even thought I am totally Team Edward.

My second thought was… Hey. Isn’t this similar to Stephanie Meyer’s chosen cover for Eclipse? I mean, before it was published??
Shay

I LOVE IT TO PIECES!!!!! This represents the book so much better than the current poster. Remember…Bella fell in live with Jacob in NM-of course she didn’t want to and didn’t realize that she had- but she revealed those feelings in Eclipse. In my opinion, the current poster should have been the Eclipse poster with Edward and Jacobs positions reversed. Think about it…Bella in Edwards arms and Jacob looking back wishing that things were back to the way they were before Edward returns.

I love it!!! To top it off…Taylor looks Hott in this pic!! If only Nov. 20th was next week. I can’t wait!!!!!!
PrincessJen

I agree with the lot of you; the cover IS indeed gorgeous. But I’m looking at it from the eyes of the newbie, the one who hasn’t read New Moon or any books in the saga for that matter, and knows next to nothing about the story. This cover gives away too much. Will it stop me from picking up a copy, no, but I hope it doesn’t spoil things for the Twilight virgins.
creamy

PrincessJen: I will accept the role of the cynical old crone for this purpose; There are no virgins. With the exception of inside the world of Twilight. This would include someone who has an interest in the movie and has not read the book(s). I just can’t see it.
shea

i think this is better than the poster itself, personally.
exactly what new moons about!
my favorite part of the poster has to be edward, where they actually made it for robert pattinson – mysterious vampire.
the new moon poster is great, but he looks more, i dont know, in this poster more..edwardishh. haha
grace

why in the heck would she be wearing that shirt in forks, i know its just a picture, and it adds to the effect, but seriously, kristen, SLEEVES! (and, btw, taylor looks AMAZING!)
Amanda

When does it come out ?I want it!!!
Ashlee

Very surprised…but good surprised, i think it looks fantastic!!! I want one…now! lol

This would have made a great poster for the movie, ok finaly calmed down, excitement was getting my neves all worked up…i can’t wait to see it in stores, love it!
jen-girl

I love it and would gladly buy it.
Miranda

I hate this cover! Sorry…I really do want to like it though!

JACOB AND BELLA ARE NOT ROMANTIC AT ALL IN NEW MOON!!!!!!! Wrong impression for those who haven’t read New Moon yet!

Edward looks tooooo different up in the moon…and it makes it look like Bella is hiding from him!

I am in between on the wolf pack being in the back…it’s ok but ehh..

I love the color of the sky and the hills being in the background.

I like the huge rocky end on the bottom of the cover.

Over all though…I’m really disappointed with this cover!
angie

yaaakkk!!!! plzz…like they say.. always take the first choice!! i like the first wtv..poster!! the other 1s is just trying to muchhh….we GET IT!! IS JACOBS TIME NOW!! but …is still edward and bella. thats it!!
Gabby

OMG! I looked at this and i was all WTF?! I’m sorry, i was just shocked.
But then i looked at it closer and I really like it. It has Jacob hugging Bella protectevly and Bella is like trying to push him away. And Edward in the back. I LOVE IT! Especially the pack in the background!
Cullen_Crest

I have to say I am 100000% Team Jasper fan, I would like Jacob but as you point out ( and I am so glad I am reminded) he is only 17 and I am 28 so that wouldnt work out for me. I love it! I am sick and I had a cough drop in, I was so shocked my cough drop fell out onto the floor!!! lol Bravo! it makes requesting Novem 2oth and 21 off from work all that much sweeter! I even ordered a Team Jasper long sleeve shirt so I am ready for the Pennslyvania cold in November!
kariZ

At first i hated this cover (only b/c new moon is painful for me), but then I see Edward’s face dominating in the cover…strategically placed on the moon… yeahhhh…
JACOBisMINE

OMJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i luv jacob fureva!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
renae

YAYA
mum’s buying me the book with that cover on it, so i already have the one with the rose, now ill have that one too. yay. jacob looks hot.

but im still team edward!
#1twilighter08

personally i hate it. i agree with wat one of u guys sed(soz u were like way up top and i cant b bothered to scroll up and check) taylor looks like her little bro. and edward is meant to look like he’s in pain-not like he’s the bad guy! yeah yeah he leaves and all but it was to protect her!!! but the rest of it looks ok-for new moon. but the main characters-the thing that matters- is all out of whack!
Willow

I love this!! This should be the New Moon movie poster! It’s perfect!
~Me~ ;]

LOVE IT!!!! XD

OMiGezze it took my breath away!!! its amazing im team edward (60%) and team jacob (40%)But I love this!! I love taylor though hes such a great actor and he deserves this!! This poster is amazing!!! I give it two thumps up!! I do agree however about how little clothes bella’s has on I’m a little upset about that In the book it didnt seem like she would wear something like that!!
CullenWannabe

I absolutely HATE this cover. It makes it look like Bella has forgotten all about Edward and has moved on & is dating Jacob. (Which could not be further from the truth.) Thankfully I have my hardback NM which is still in great condition & I won’t be needing to buy a new copy. If I needed a new one I would be extremely angry if this was the only copy available.
