New Moon finally got an official website! Summit updated the Twilight Saga Website, so now it reflects New Moon. It does not contain much, so it is pretty plain.. However, you can download some New Moon extras there. I’m sure they put the teasers up as soon as possible, too!

The yello porsche Alice that will drive in Italy is finally discovered!
TwilightersItalia got this as a report:

Today our forum mods were in Montepulciano and look what they’ve found:

Alice’s Yellow Posche!

At the beginning our loved racing car was covered by a grey robe, but our
indefatigable facilitator/ moderator, suspicious of the dimensions and by
the chromed wheels, have began questioning people around.

Mauro Pellegrini the owner of the tow truck, had orders by the production
not to uncover the car, but after explaining him who they were to his boss,
our heroines have even been invited to remain till the end of the
shooting!!

The big man youcan see in some pictures is one of the stuntmen. He had an
Alice wig, a bandana, a couple of elbow high red gloves, and seemingly from
far he actually looked like our loved little vampire/pixie

Mauro secretly told us that there are two yellow porsche in Montepulciano,
placed in different places of the town. As they were not exactly identical,
one had yellow brake pad cover and another had them red, Production was
willing to spend to the incredible amount of €5800 PER PIECE to have them
all red!!!

Luckily they found out a way to paint them, but this episode says a lot on
how high is this movie’s budget!!!

The helicopter we told you about ealier, has kept low-flying whole day long
filming aerial of the main square.. The fountain is not finished yet, so
probably this was a rehearsal or shooting for the DVD’s extra-contents .

It also flown over where the porsche was, so probably we’ll see some
Twilighters on the big screen : our Marghe’s car has been filmed by Alice’s
car!!

We are honoured!!

Don’t forget to check out the rest of the pics over at TwilightersItalia!

New Moon’s Jackson Rathbone has landed a lead role in the movie Lords of Chaos by Japanese director Sion Sono. The film will be about Norway’s black metal music scene–

Based on Michael Moynihan and Didrik Soderlind’s book of the same name, the film depicts true events and revolves around the black metal sub-culture that spawned a wave of murders and Church arsons across Norway in the early 1990s.

Rathbone will play the lead role of The Count, often referred to as Norway’s Charles Manson, who brutally stabbed a black metal musician to death in 1993.

Go Jackson!

Risky Biz has an interview with Robert Pattinson, and here it is:
[NB, it's pretty long]

THR: Have you been to Cannes before?

Pattinson: I came here on holiday once when I was 12 but not since. I wouldn’t appreciate it (here) as a holiday now.

THR: Let’s talk about “Twilight.” There are four books. Is the plan for you to do them all?

Pattinson: I have committed to the fourth one, “Breaking Dawn.” But I don’t know quite when Summit is going to shoot it because of my schedule.

THR: How is the script for “New Moon” different from the second book?

Pattinson: It kind of plays relatively close to it. I would still describe it as being a sort of supporting role (to Bella’s story). I think it would have been a bit cheesy if it had just stayed as a voiceover part as my character is a voice in her head in the second book. They’ve shot these hallucination bits of the film. You’re playing a figment of Bella’s imagination and I was trying to do it in a really 2-D kind of way. I hope it doesn’t come out flat and boring (laughs).

THR: What’s the schedule for “New Moon”?

Pattinson: We’ve got four days left on the shoot for this. I’m going to Italy for the remaining days of the shoot.

THR: And then?

Pattinson: Then I’m going straight into filming (the relationship drama) “Remember Me,” then have just three days off before going back to finishing up the third instalment in the “Twilight” series, “Eclipse.” After that I am doing a film “Unbound Captives.” I can’t say much about that but I know the script needs me to learn Comanche! Maybe it’ll be like in “Dances With Wolves!” My part is entirely in Comanche, ha ha.

THR: You’ve been shooting sequences from the second and third in the “Twilight” franchise at the same time. Is that harder for an actor than doing separate films?

Pattinson: Not really. We will just shoot the Vancouver bits (for ‘Eclipse`’) and then “Moon” is out later this year.

THR: How did “Remember Me” come about?

Pattinson: I read the script last summer and then met with (director) Allen Coulter and really liked it. It’s quite a simple story but there was something about the character and way he spoke that was very similar to the way I speak. There is a naturalism to the writing and I really felt a connection to it.

THR: What’s the script about?

Pattinson: I read somewhere it was being described as the modern day “Love Story.” It isn’t anything like “Love Story.” It (“Remember Me”) is really hard to describe. It about a 23-year-old guy and knowing someone for six weeks. You don’t just fall in love and say, I’m in love, after six weeks. It’s really a relationship story. It’s very natural and the characters are incredibly real and well scripted. It’s one of the few scripts I’ve read where you finish and realize you didn’t really want it to end. I have no qualms in saying that (writer) Jenny (Lumet) is a genius.

THR: How so?

Pattinson: I went up to her house one weekend and we all hung out there and just chatted about the script and asked me what I wanted from it. She worked on the draft and about a week later she delivered this script. She’d captured little bits of my voice and all the inflections and mannerisms I have. The character in the script is quite similar to me.

THR: Playing yourself?

Pattinson: You can only really play yourself in a role once every 15 years I think (laughs). And you can only do it if its a good script and captures you properly. It is very therapeutic actually.

THR: Where and when?

Pattinson: It is set in NYC and will shoot there for eight weeks.

THR: You sound like you enjoyed helping with the writing of “Remember Me.” A frustrated writer?

Pattinson: No, it’s great when someone else is doing the writing for you.

THR: How do you see your career to date?

Pattinson: I didn’t go to acting school, I fell into it. I don’t really have conventional taste, and I want to only do films that I feel will be beneficial to my life. What we’ve molded with “Remember Me” is a very exciting and subtle work. I don’t really understand acting as acting. I’m definitely not one of those people who can just look scared when they’re told to by a director.

THR: How do you select projects?

Pattinson: If there’s a good script I don’t care who the director is that is attached. I like the most random scripts and I am really close friends with my agent. She really gets me and knows my taste. Occasionally she’ll say, “I’ve got this really awful script but maybe you should read it anyway,” and I look at a page and agree with her. I barely ever like scripts actually. After I did “Twilight,” I really wanted to work but just didn’t see a script I liked. I ended up doing nothing for a whole year. It was frustrating.

THR: Did the huge global success of “Twilight” affect you as an actor?

Pattinson: I prefer to do nothing than something stupid. I feel there’s so much pressure because of this idea of career. It’s a little worrying. It made so much money that now you get judged not by how good the film is but how much money the film your in is making. That’s the scary thing now.

THR: Presumably there will is the hope that people who like you from “Twilight” will go and see “Remember Me”?

Pattinson: It’s going to be helped by that. I just hope when people go and see it, they don’t say, “Edward wouldn’t do that.” That’s not going to be good!

THR: Do you still have a place in London?

Pattinson: I gave up my flat a year ago. I’m not really living anywhere at the moment because basically I am constantly working and on the road.

THR: Nothing to ground you?

Pattinson: I don’t even remember where I left my car (in Los Angeles). It’s probably been towed away by now. that’s my only immovable possession and now I don’t know where it is! (Laughs.) It was important to me because it was the first car I ever bought. Made me feel like a man, buying a car.
