About.com posted an article about Kellan Lutz. Here he talked about his new movie ‘A Nightmare On Elm Street’.

Although the LA press day for New Moon was focused 99.9% of the time on all things Twilight, A Nightmare on Elm Street came up during the press conference Lutz was a part of. When asked about the dream sequences and what audiences can expect from the 2010 film, Lutz joked that his character actually becomes the steel-gloved killer.

“It’s great. I kill Jackie Earle Haley and take away his glove and sweater — the sweater itches,” said Lutz, laughing. “No. You know what? It’s such a blessing to be a part of something that for me, I grew up with. And a lot of things scared me growing up – mainly my brothers picking on me. But as far as Jason or Chucky, I had a Chucky doll, like those things didn’t scare me. But Freddy Krueger, there’s something… It’s this psychological thriller that can take you in your dreams, you know? It’s something that you can’t physically take care of on your own.

Taylor Lautner struggled to bulk up for the forthcoming Twilight sequel – because he hated having to eat every couple of hours.

Taylor Lautner has revealed that he struggled to bulk up for the forthcoming Twilight sequel.

The actor was forced to alter his diet and embark on an intense exercise regime to transform himself for his role in New Moon.

He told Star: “Most people were like, that sounds amazing, to be able to eat all the time, and it is at first. But after a year and a half of it, I mean, I have to put something in my mouth every two hours, so it becomes kind of annoying!”

The Skinny posted a little bit of the interview from the Nylon Magazine article.

Kellan Lutz wears wigs so he can go out in public unrecognised.

The actor, who shot to fame in vampire film franchise Twilight, decided to don fake hair so he could continue watching American football matches without attracting attention to himself.

“I used to love going to my local high school football games near my house. And I can’t really go there anymore, without being wise – I do have a few wigs, actually,” he revealed.

Kellan added he didn’t shave and wore scruffy clothes so he could go to a comic book convention in San Diego this year. However, his cunning disguise failed to stop him getting noticed at the world-famous event.

Two HITS are coming out this November that will thrill you out! 2012 and the Twilight Saga: New Moon. Both movies will pull a huge audience, but just one of them will win at the end! Read the following article to find out.

Due to a surprising increase in male interest, New Moon may be biting off some of 2012’s audience.

Two big movie releases in the same month in two totally different genres shouldn’t cause much trouble right? That may not be the case when Summit Entertainment’s “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” hits theaters just a week after Sony Pictures’ 2012. Despite one’s specific audience of younger women and the other’s broad appeal, pre-release polling show that “New Moon” may very well leave “2012” in the dark.

All numbers point to “New Moon” building off “Twilight’s” success with poll numbers of 40% among younger women plus first choice and 15% of older women (25 and up). While these numbers are impressive, the shocker is that the same number of older men as older women showed interest. The poll has yet to release numbers on what percentage will afterwards deny ever seeing the soppy love story between a teenage girl and a 100-year-old vampire. …

**Of course it’s just an article, we’ll have to wait and see, I really hope that 2012 will make a huge success which will!

Michael Sheen the actor who plays the Volturi vampire Aro in New Moon has played another character as a werewolf in the Underworld series, but which side would he fall on in the battle between the supernatural creatures: vampire or werewolf?

We were all stunned when we got a chance to see Michael Sheen (finally!) in character as Aro. The new “New Moon” TV spot featuring the Volturi gave us a chance to see the bad vamps in action.

But Michael is one of the few actors around (the only one I can think of offhand) who has had the opportunity to play both a vampire and a werewolf. Anyone looking to see a darker modern take on vampire mythology should check out the “Underworld” series, in which Michael plays the werewolf, Lucian.

When we got a chance to talk with “New Moon” director Chris Weitz, we asked him what side Michael would fall on in the battle between the supernatural creatures: vampire or werewolf? …

From “The Who’s News Blog”:

What does Pattinson retreat to at the end of the day after leaving the Eclipse set, swooning fans and the ever-present paparazzi behind? Creating music in his hotel room. “It’s nice to have a bit of artistic or creative endeavor that isn’t so pressurized,” he explains. “So many people have an opinion, especially when you’re doing the Twilight movies. Making this movie, it’s almost as if people have become more concerned with what the fans want the more successful it becomes. The first one seemed more relaxed than this one, and that one wasn’t particularly relaxed. But it’s nice to do music where no one’s too concerned with what I’m doing with it. It’s kind of a relief.”
