Justin Chon is excited about meeting the rest of the cast in the New Moon premeire!

On November 20, millions of Twilighters will pack movie theaters worldwide, eager to see “New Moon” and meet the actors who will portray Volturi vampires, werewolves and other newcomers to the franchise. And, in a cast as huge as the “Twilight Saga,” some of the actors are looking forward to those introductions as well.

“The cast is so big now,” said Justin Chon, who plays “human” Eric Yorkie. “Seriously, it’s like an army. You really don’t get to meet everyone.”The premiere is going to be wild; it’s gonna be a zoo,” he laughed, sounding for a minute like a super-fan. “I want to meet Michael Sheen!” … (Billy Burke interview too)

In a recent interview with the mortals of New Moon, Bella’s high school friends answered some questions

Sure, New Moon’s vampires and werewolves may get all the attention, but it’s Bella’s gang of high school friends who keep the movie centered in reality. Anna Kendrick, Michael Welch, Justin Chon and Christian Serratos (who play Jessica, Mike, Eric and Angela, respectively) talk about providing the franchise’s comic relief and keeping it real as mortals amongst all the supernatural shenanigans.

Unlike Twilight, which was shot in Portland, you shot New Moon in Vancouver. What was that like?

Justin: The weather’s actually been better here. Portland was very, very, very cold and rainy. It’s a little bit nicer here.

Anna: One of the freaky things about shooting New Moon in a different location than Portland was the re-creation of things, like the high school parking lot. It was like déjà vu because we were in a different country but they completely recreated the parking lot from the school we shot at before.

You also got a new director. What was it like working with Chris Weisz?

Michael: Chris was really …

Twilight Examiner got an exclusive interview with Edi Gathegi, Gil Birmingham and Justin Chon, in which they talk about what motivates them to go to fan conventions, “New Moon”, how it is promoting it and much more.

Q: With New Moon, you guys are doing promotionals that seem to be ten times more than with Twilight .. So how does it feel that this time around you guys as individuals are so much more important with the fans for the promotional aspects. So, how is that for you? Is it exciting, is it trying, or is it a part of you at this point …

Edi: I’d say it’s become a part of the job description now.

Justin: Yeah … but you know, you don’t really think about it too much. You just do it kind of … They ask you do to something and you just do it… It’s not that big of a deal.

Edi: Our whole lives are like you have an appointment on Thursday at two o’clock, you have an audition at x time, and you have press on this day …

Justin: Yeah …

“Twilight”-human Justin Chon talks to E! Online about how “Eclipse” will be different from previous “Twilight” movies and how the security around the cast has increased a lot.

Twilight star Justin Chon tells me that director David Slade’s Eclipse isn’t exactly taking his lead from Catherine Hardwick or Chris Weitz.
“He’s done pretty dark films so that’s where I see [Eclipse] really gravitating towards—more of a dark kind of moody film,” Chon said yesterday at BAFTA’s pre-Emmy tea party. “Just shooting the scenes that I’m in, the mood is definitely different.”
“David is very set on how he wants this movie to be portrayed,” Chon said. “It’s a lot more refined and maybe not as loose as the last two—at least for us humans. I can only imagine what he’s doing with everyone else.”
Chon also confirmed reports that Robert Pattinson has been living in a house rather than the usual hotel during filming in Vancouver, Canada.
“Security has been increased a lot,” Chon said. “They’re a lot more protective…If Rob was to go out in public without anybody, I think it could be pretty dangerous.”

J-14 has a new interview with Justin Chon, who plays Eric Yorkie in the Twilight Saga.

J-14: In Twilight, did you draw from your own high school experience to flirt with Bella Swan in the cafeteria?
Justin Chon: Of course. As an actor you’re always trying to draw from real stuff to make it real, but I would say in acting terms, you use like substitutions and you think back to the moment. I just tried to make him as awkward as possible and just overly excited about everything.
