Dakota Fanning, 15
Not many child actors are able to make the leap to adult-stardom. Dakota promises to be one of the few to pull it off. She gave us a glimpse of her grown-up bad-girl side in the Twilight sequel, New Moon, playing a member of vamp royalty. And her role as a teenage rock star in The Runaways promises to catapult her from freakishly-talented child prodigy to full-fledged Hollywood star.Anna Kendrick, 24
Anna had a great 2009. First, she graduated from playing Kristen Stewart’s sidekick in the Twilight movies to playing George Clooney’s sidekick in Up in the Air. As if working with George wasn’t enough, the part also earned her an Academy Award nod for Best Supporting Actress. (Anna already has some experience with award shows. At the age of 12, she scored a Tony nomination for her role in the Broadway musical High Society.) Her next project –- Scott Pilgrim vs. the World with Michael Cera in the title role -– isn’t exactly Oscar-bait, but we’re planning to line up for tickets anyway.Kristen Stewart, 19
Kristen specializes in playing girls who are brooding, enigmatic and tough to pin down. The same could be said of Kristen herself. She’s not the type of actress who opens up about her personal life (R-Patz: are they or aren’t they?) and she’s never seemed comfortable with the Twilight fan frenzy. So we’re looking forward to seeing her shift into edgier films, where she seems to belong. She’ll star as rocker Joan Jett in The Runaways and then play a hooker befriended by a grieving married man (James Gandolfini) in Welcome to the Rileys. But don’t worry, fellow Twihards. Eclipse and Breaking Dawn are also on the way.

“Harry Potter” star Tom Felton had only been in Berlin shooting “The Apparition” for a few days when MTV got a chance to chat with him last week. In that short time, though, Tom said his costars Ashley Greene and Sebastian Stan made a very distinct impression on him.
“The Apparition” is getting plenty of buzz because it will be a crossover of two of the biggest teen franchises around: “Harry Potter” and “The Twilight Saga.” Add that to the fact Sebastian Stan is from cult teen TV series “Gossip Girl” and you’ve got what seems to be a perfect cocktail for the teen demographic’s box office dollars, despite the fact “The Apparition” is described somewhere between a mystery and a thriller.
“It gives me great, great pleasure to not only be a part of a great project but also to be working with such exciting new talent,” Tom told MTV News. “It’s to be part of that, really, hopefully, to be featured among that young talent.”
“She seems like a very, really positive, very, very friendly young lady, in no way at all ‘Hollywood’,” Tom said. “You know, I didn’t have any expectations. In no way is she a diva or anything like that. She’s a lovely girl and clearly extremely talented, which excites me to be working with such great young talent.”

Anna Kendrick:
She shares a sharp intensity with the young Holly Hunter, but Kendrick, 24, took her inspiration for her role as George Clooney’s upstart downsizing colleague in Up in the Air from Faye Dunaway in Network. Kendrick decided her character, Natalie, would think she could be just like Dunaway’s ruthless Diana Christensen, with one twist: “Throughout the movie, she is finding out she can’t be.” It takes a while for the audience to fall for the driven, aggressive Natalie — thanks to lines like “Please, for the love of God, can I fire the next one?” — but Kendrick was always on her side. “Even if she’s going to fail, she wants to dive in and do it.” Kendrick took an ambitious dive from way up in the air and nailed it.

As we know, Robert Pattinson is on the cover of Details Magazin. Here is the interview and the video. You will see the photos soon in the Gallery! Stay Tuned
COFFEE
It’s the unseasonably cold November of 2008 when I go to New York’s Bowery Hotel. There’s a young man sitting in the garden, wrapped in about nine black sweaters and wearing a wool hat, smoking cigarettes, sipping a latte the size of his head, and furiously making notes on a script in the bitter cold. I have read about teenage girls lighting themselves on fire in front of his hotel, but at the moment Robert Pattinson is warming his hands on a coffee cup.Hello, I’m Jenny. I think I’m here so you can check me out.
“Okay. I’m Rob. Um . . . would you like some fries? With gravy?”Allen Coulter, the director of Hollywoodland and a creative force behind The Sopranos, has sent me. He was thinking about doing this movie—it wasn’t quite there yet, but I should “come meet Rob.”

Goodness knows that the first kiss been “Edward” (Robert Pattinson) and “Bella” (Kristen Stewart) in Twilight was a highly anticipated moment. Apparently, that kiss was one of the several moments from Twilight that made an impact on the general film community. It has been listed on The Los Angeles Times Magazine’s “50 Classic Movie Kisses.”
The Twilight kiss took 49th place (just above An Education) on the list, and it is joined by a great many classic love stories and dramatic films (including A Farewell To Arms, Gone With The Wind, A Streetcar Named Desire, Beauty And The Beast, Lady And The Tramp, Breakfast At Tiffany’s, The Sound Of Music, Romeo And Juliet, Love Story, Sixteen Candles, Top Gun, Titanic, Ghost, The Notebook, and Brokeback Mountain).

Kristen Stewart was photographed a million times while she had the mullet she got to play Joan Jett in The Runaways. (The last time she was shot before she chopped it? For her Allure cover.) Now, the movie itself is finally here—it played at the Sundance Festival and it will be released in mid-March—and it turns out the dirty-sexy makeup is just as noteworthy as the hair. We talked to makeup department head for the film, Robin Mathews, about the looks she created on Stewart and Dakota Fanning, who plays Jett’s bandmate Cherie Currie. “Joan Jett and Cherie Currie weren’t really into lipstick because it was such a pain in the ass to keep on,” says Mathews, “so the look of The Runaways is all about the eyes.” And though Stewart and Fanning aren’t big makeup girls themselves—“neither of them needs a stitch of makeup” says Mathews—they got so into the characters that they even did what they needed to get the look right. “Sometimes we’d apply Kristen’s eyeliner at night, then she’d sleep in it, and it was in all the right creases in the morning when she came to the set,” says Mathews, who used Make Up For Ever products. “When she’d come in after sleeping in black kohl liner, I’d blend and smudge it out with a brown eye shadow and a small stiff eye shadow brush on the top lid and under the eye.”

Reports everywhere this evening claim “Breaking Dawn” is going to be adapted into two movies.
The official word given to Gossip Cop from a rep for Summit is, “No decision has been made and as we have said all along we are continuing to work with Stephenie Meyer to bring Breaking Dawn to the big screen.”
HOWEVER, a well-placed source tells Gossip Cop dividing Breaking Dawn into two pictures “is the direction that it’s going in.” We’re told that from a practical standpoint, separating the story into two parts and shooting back-to-back is what makes most sense.
Earlier reports seem to be fairly accurate when it comes to timing, specifically, that filming may begin in October.
Gossip Cop will keep you posted when plans are officially finalized.
Thank you GossipCop for the info!
