EXCLUSIVE FANSITE INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRES
Friday we brought you exclusive interviews from Justin Chon, Christian Serratos, Anna Kendrick, and Michael Welch, while yesterday we brought you an exclusive with Edi Gathegi and Alex Meraz. Well, moving forward today, we have an exclusive interview for you from three of the New Moon vampires: Kellan Lutz (Emmett), Nikki Reed (Rosalie), and Jackson Rathbone. The questions in the interview are from the following websites: Twilighters Anonymous, Twilight Lexicon, Twilight Examiner, Twilight Series Theories, Twilight Facebook, Twilight Moms, His Golden Eyes, Twilighters.org, MSN Twilight Superfan, Twilight Source, and Bella and Edward. Check out a preview of the interviews below.
These movies have been made and put out pretty quickly so far, and have you guys been able to just really step back and enjoy it all of the hype that’s going along with it, or do you feel that you’re kind of just caught up in a whirlwind?Nikki: Wow that’s very, that’s very loaded, that question. I guess a little bit of both. We’ve certainly felt, I think, you know the push and the exposure from the series and I think we’re all really grateful to be a part of it, but I guess things are moving quite quickly. We’re turning around and pumping these, I mean it’s only like four months ago that we wrapped ‘New Moon’ or less than that actually three months ago. We’re already here training and getting ready for the next, two weeks into the next. So there isn’t a lot of time to reflect I would say. I spent a lot of this year traveling and the end of last year just because I grew up really fast and I spent most of my childhood being really concerned about like what the next job was going to be and working and working and working. And so when I sort of recognized that that’s what was going to happen with this series, we were going to have just a few months in-between to do whatever we wanted, whether that be like work and focus on another project or take a break, I chose to take a break. So I did a lot of traveling and writing and stuff.
Kellan: I think it’s very cool. It’s kind of a happy medium. I couldn’t imagine being you know, the guys on say ‘Lord of the Rings’ spend a couple of years in New Zealand you know pumping those bad boys out, that’s a whole other life. Where we’re blessed enough to be a part of this magic carpet ride in this fantastic roller coaster thanks to the fans with all the love and support. But that we do, we are allowed to have breaks in-between and you know really do other films or take a break and go see family or travel the world and then come back and do the next one. And you know it’s kind of sad knowing that there is an end, unlike, you know, ‘Harry Potter’ in which I mean there was an end but they had so many books to look forward to and to grow with. I mean we are pumping these out quite quickly and to know that ‘Breaking Dawn’. (Call is interrupted) But yeah again to reiterate, just knowing and praying that we get to do ‘Breaking Dawn’. And we all you know would wish that she would make more books because this is a part of our lives as actors and us as individuals being a part of this. It will be sad when that day comes to close a chapter on it, and it’s not really closing a chapter because we’ll still have the memories and friendships. But you know it’s tough and I really compare it to my football years when your coach says this is your last football game for most of you guys who played high school football and you kind of laugh at it and just want to do it, but then you look back at all the good times that you spent with those other, those players and those friends that you made and it’s never the same.
