iD Gum Launch Event in NYC: Kellan Lutz Interviews On Tarzan & BD2 Premiere (Photos)
eonline Twilight may have made Kellan Lutz a household name, but that doesn't mean he isn't looking forward to the end of the blockbuster franchise.
As you all know, the last Twi-flick, Breaking Dawn: Part 2, will finally hit theaters on Nov. 16.
"It's bittersweet," the hunky actor, 27, told me yesterday while he was in New York hosting the launch of iD gum. "I'm really excited for it and I always enjoy doing the premieres and the press junket.
"We worked our butts off, but it's great to close a chapter on one franchise and hopefully I can start a new franchise with Tarzan," Lutz added.
Lutz stars in an upcoming motion capture 3-D reboot of the classic tale of a boy raised by apes in the African jungle. Spencer Locke, best known for playing K-Mart in the Resident Evil franchise, costars as Jane.
And while we've long admired Lutz for his muscly bod (can't wait to see him in the loincloth!), he may not be in as fine form these days as he usually is. Paparazzi have regularly snapped him shirtless near his L.A.-area home. "I live at the beach and I go to the beach so I'm going to be topless," Lutz said. "But if anything now, I haven't worked out in months. I'm the skinniest I've been in years.
Hollywood.com was assured by the star that his previously announced Tarzan movie is on track — and that he's having a ball playing the classic jungle hero.
Unlike his Twilight character Emmett Cullen,Lutz's Tarzan will be brought to life with performance capture, the same CG technology used to realize Lord of the Rings' Gollum and fully animated films like Polar Express and The Adventures of Tintin. "It’s kind of like acting in live theater, so you have to be expressive," says Lutz. "Normal acting, you can be somewhat expressionless, [but] that won’t register. You have to be bigger. You have to take your beats. If I’m wrestling an alligator… 'Grab the knife!' — STAB! Versus like doing something so quick and fluid." 3D animated performance capture also speeds up the acting process. According to Lutz, the experience is "like having 60 cameras at one time, so when you do a scene, you only do a scene twice because they have every angle.”
While Lutz loves the technology-infused style of acting, he didn't audition for Tarzan knowing he'd end up in a one-piece, swinging from vines that would only be created after the fact. "When I auditioned, I wore my Conan wig, because I was testing for Conan the Narbarian at the time," says Lutz. "So I had this wig that I made for that so I wore that and then I walked into the audition in my underwear." (Remember his 2010 Calvin Klein X underwear campaign?) Only after his audition was he told the film would be animated. Unfortunately, his beefed up physical presence — what you might expect from a Tarzan — wouldn't work. "They’re like, ‘No can you actually slim down so you can fit in the suit,’"Lutz explained.
Lutz has moved on to his next project, but he'll always be game to talk about his time on Twilight. Like most of the cast, he's tight-lipped on what we'll see in Breaking Dawn — Part 2's grand finale, but he didn't reveal how he passed the time on set. Inspired by a scene in Part 2 where Emmett arm wrestles a newly-vampiric Bella, Lutz held a few strength competitions of his own. "When you are on set, you kind of get bored easily and I arm wrestled everyone, even Ashley [Greene]. She’ll kick me in the shin to beat me. We have fun. It’s a really tight-knit family.” From the sound of it, Lutz didn't have a problem besting his costars (sorry, Mr. Lautner).
As with most young stars, Lutz is already looking ahead to the future. With a vampire and a classic literary figure under his belt, the actor dreams of playing a superhero. “There’s Aquaman. There’s Flash," says Lutz. "Honestly, He-Man. I just grew up with my He-Man tighty whities. Or Aquaman because I love being in the water.” Any could be a perfect match for the physical star — just as long as he remembers to check if they're animated before beefing up.

(Video) Kellan Lutz Confirms 'BD 2' Credits Scene
TheInsider caught up with Kellan Lutz in New York City last night at the launch event for iD gum, a new gum from Stride made just for teens. The gum comes in a magnetic closing folding pack, each pack featuring one of 18 pieces of original artwork from young emerging artists.
Of course, Kellan was also happy to talk about the highly anticipated final film of the Twilight franchise, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2, where he confirmed that there will definitely be a bonus scene for fans following the credits of the movie!
"They're gonna love it, and Bill [Bill Condon, the director] even told me that, stay for the credits -- there's a really special thing happening."
He also dished that Condon took some liberties with the original book written by Stephenie Meyer.
"Every film's been building and building, and Bill Condon really had a great idea with ending the series with Breaking Dawn 2, and just adding a little more flavor to parts of the book that weren't there, but he elaborated more on," he says. "I think the fans are really going to enjoy it."
Clearly, he could only be talking about Breaking Dawn's original ending -- i.e. the most anti-climactic battle in the history of literature.
Check out the video to hear which Twilight cast-members Kellan still remains close to, nearly two years after filming has wrapped.
