Hi Gil: Thanks for making the role of Billy so genuine especially for fans of the books.
My question is: Have you thought to write, whether it’s poetry, screenplay, short story? Would you ever like to produce or direct a film at any level or genre?
Question :- Who did you get on with or hung around with most onset when you were filming Twilight?
Question :- If you didn’t play Billy, what other character would you like to play (gender aside and age aside)???
Question :- Favourite book? (just in general)
Question :- As the werewolves are actually shapeshifters; if the shapeshifters didn’t turn in wolves, what animal would you most like them to turn into instead? (can be any animal - from catfish to eagles to hedgehogs
)
Question :- Who is the most famous person you have met and when?
Hope these questions make sense and Gil answers them! When are you interviewing him?

Hiy Gil!
I think you play Billy so amazing! My questions to you are:
1) I hear that on set its like your all one big family, have you ever had that bond before “Twilight” or is this the first time?
2) As one of the older cast members along with Billy Burke, how does that effect your presence on set? Do the younger cast members look up to you? Do they see you as a father figure?
3) Are you glad that you have had the opportunity to take part in the twilight saga? If so what has been the most outstanding moment so far?
Thank you so much !
Renathy (England, UK)
(P.s - TA thank you for the opportunity to do this your awesome!)
Aani, Gil!
As an Anishnabik qwe I’m really aware of the sub-text of the Wolves as protectors of the people in the Twilight Saga. I’m wondering how you feel about the way that this really powerful image is being handled in the movies.
Also, how do you want to see Billy Black’s character evolve?
Love what you bring to the movie, can’t wait for more and thanks for taking the time to do this!
Baamaapii!
Will you be back for New moon?
What do you think of all the New moon casting rumours?
How does all the cast behave off set?
How have you prepared yourself for the role of Billy Black?
