Q: What was your most memorable experience working on the film? - Keenan Noel
A: Meeting the townspeople. I grew up in the Midwest, and I’ve encountered situations that occur in this movie. A small town – if your main economic resources get hit and go on a decline, the whole town gets hit. People have to outsource for work and drive hundreds of miles for jobs, and that happened in Iowa with the farming. The prices for corn and wheat were dropped, and you had to outbid and lower your bid to keep farming and farm more land. It really affects the community. But the community sticks together. They really have a lot of hope, and that’s what I saw in these towns. And when you meet the townspeople and things like this have happened, you really feel for them. They’re just like anyone else, but they really have a lot of hope. It’s really cool to be around them and hear their stories. You really learn a lot.
Q: Did you do anything to prepare for the role, to get yourself into character? - pete
A: Yeah, I mean we worked with the director a lot. He’s different from Emmett Cullen, who has everything. Superpower strength. Eddie is a kid. He’s scared, and he really looks up to Shane, who’s played by Jonathan Tucker, who’s an amazing guy, amazing actor. I’m a pretty confident guy; I grew up pretty worldly, quickly, have a good head on my shoulders, so to really play the vulnerable character who doesn’t have everything together, who has to rely on a big brother type of person that Shane plays is really different. So really going into shooting, and having the knowledge that I’ve encountered and seen first hand, with the decline in farming, I really had an understanding of what these people, the town of Meskada, have gone through, and it’s really great.
Q: You had a few fight scenes in the movie. What’s the difference between being a vampire fighting and being a mere mortal? - Doni Tom too
A: Ha! I hate being the kid who gets his butt kicked. I haven’t lost too many real-life fights in my life. I’ve been boxing for a while now. And even street fights, I’ve won quite a few of those.
Q: Are you filming 'Breaking Dawn' now? - mikeyp
A: We are. I’m back home in L.A. because of the holidays, but I had my first day [of shooting] just a couple of weeks ago.
Q: How do find being the Calvin Klein underwear model now? - sarfdstgfr
A: I love it. I’ve been so blessed. Even falling into acting and having this be my new career. I’m just so thankful. To be a face of an iconic brand – you know, I started out modeling and I loved Calvin Klein
Q: What’s going on on the set for 'Twilight?' - tanya n
A: Man, if I knew any stories, ha! These movies, it’s weird because we do block shooting, so all my scenes are mainly with the Cullens, and this’ll be the fourth and fifth movie that I’ve done with these actors, so we know each other inside and out. But you don’t really get a chance to work with the werewolves because those shoots have different scenes that you’re not in, so you don’t have to go to set that day, and that’s the only time you really get to hang out with the cast members. Maybe cast dinners. So a lot of the time you don’t even get to work with a lot of the actors that are in the movie, and it’s kind of a tease. Like people will ask, “How was it like working with Dakota Fanning or Michael Sheen?” and I’m like, “I had one day.” These movies keep on adding new characters, like Lee Pace had a cast dinner, and I’ve been a fan of his, and we barely have any scenes together, so everyone’s kind of in and out. I try and get back to L.A. as much as I can, but Baton Rouge is where we’re shooting right now, and I love that town -- great to go to work and go out and play afterward.
