New Faces Fridays: Rami Malek discusses special effects and Stephenie Meyer in exclusive fansites interview
pagetopremiere Meet Rami Malek in today’s edition of New Faces Fridays. Rami plays the element manipulating and always quite affable, Benjamin of the Egyptian coven in “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 2.”
Q: Have you gotten to see any of your scenes on film yet- and if so what you thought of the special effects?
Rami Malek: Great question! I had an ADR* session. I’m sure you guys are familiar with that right? (ADR stands for Automated Dialog Replacement) So I got to see some of the temporary effects they weren’t quite done, but as far as I was concerned they were good enough for me. They really looked brilliant, vibrant and felt very real. I was happy to see that because there were points that I was concerned about. I’m always concerned watching a movie – when something looks as if it was developed from a computer and you can see when it looks generated by a computer it really takes one out of the film; so I was happy to see that it really just looks as if I was doing these in reality.
Q: Stephenie has recently released the “The Twilight Saga: The Official Illustrated Guide,” which had a huge backstory between the Egyptian coven, and I know we’ve already sampled a little bit of what we are going to see from you – did we get any of that feud with the Volturi history from you guys?
Rami: Well after reading the novel I came to the conclusion that there was going to be a lot of work I had to do because there wasn’t that much said in her novel. So I came up with a lot of ideas, and Angela, who plays Tia, came up with a lot of ideas and we shared them over the course of filming, and when we met Stephenie she was able to give us a real concrete backstory, which wasn’t far off from the things that we had created on our own. It was a very special feeling to have that acknowledgement from her that we were on the right track with her story from things that we were coming up with from our own crazy imagination.

Has the Twilight Star-Makin' Machine Malfunctioned?
If you recall, we thought that when smoldering newcomer Xavier Samuel joined the cast of Eclipse last year, all hell would break loose when he became the next hot thing to infringe of Rob's precious territory.
Well, that was then. Zero tabloid drama and one Kate Gosselin haircut later, nobody's talking about Samuel—not even us.
So now that new guy Rami Malek—who we'll admit is quite the exotic-lookin' looker—is signed on for Breaking Dawn: Part II, is it too early to start swooning? Or is it just about time to start yawning?
We thought Twilight makes a star out of everyone, but that clearly wasn't the case with Samuel, or even with Bryce Dallas Howard (who was already a star, but no thanks to the vamp franchise). Fans just didn't embrace them with the cult following that they did for the main cast in the first few movies.
Rob, Kristen, Taylor, Nikki, Kellan and Ashley got the benefits of the Twilight star-making machine launching their careers, but has the engine since sputtered out?
Don't get us wrong—Twi is absolutely huge, and people will clamor for the autograph of the guy who was an extra behind Edward and Bella in chemistry class.
But if the rise-and-fall of potential heartthrob Samuel was any indication, we have to admit, we made a mistake by thinking too far ahead.
So Malek, we're not gonna even say a peep about you.
For one thing, it's too damn early, since the dude's not even in the first Breaking Dawn flick. But more importantly, we don't want to set up too high of expectations.
Because then we'll just be devastated when we're left with our mouths open, our tongues hanging, and our loins still burning for some hunky Twilight messy stuff

Breaking Dawn Casting Announcement: Meet Benjamin
ET got the scoop at their post Emmy Awards party. Rami Malek (no doubt his IMDB ranking is going through the roof as we speak) will be playing Benjamin. He is probably best known for his roles in 24, The Pacific, and Night at the Museum.
Benjamin, who is mated with Tia, was created by Amun knowing that the boy would be special. Amun has since been trying to turn Benjamin’s ability to manipulate earth, air, fire, and water into a weapon, but Benjamin is very independent and won’t be used. He bonds quickly with many of the covens and nomads gathered at the Cullen’s house and declares that he will stand with them if the Volturi attack. They are all members of the Egyptian coven.
