Peter Facinelli stopped by at PopEater’s offices for an interview, check the video out below.

New Moon director, Chris Weitz is a very popular man. We got another interview this one from New York Magazineto share.

How did you convince Stephenie Meyer to pick you as the director?
Her first reservation was that I’m a man. She had liked About a Boy [which Weitz helped adapt], so that helped a lot. It also helped to talk about the book and Bella’s feelings, and how I would see it realized. We became thick as thieves. I could always e-mail her and ask if it was okay to do something. She’s the pope and I’m the cardinal.
Had you always had a thing for vampires?
A week before [I was offered the Twilight job] — I’m friends with David Benioff, and he had said you should see this movie, Let the Right One In. And I said, “I don’t understand why everybody’s doing so many movies and TV shows about vampires. I just don’t get it. You have Buffy the Vampire Slayer and you’re through.” Then I got offered Twilight and became the world’s biggest hypocrite. But I don’t think it’s about vampires at all. Part of the appeal for adults is it’s a guilty pleasure going back to your teenage emotions, like your first love and first heartbreak and obsession.
But as a 39-year-old married man, how do you relate to the emotional state of a teenage girl?
I’m a teenage girl at heart, really. I could show you the doctor’s report. I have a very high estrogen count. My wife is here to confirm it. But I never thought the story was gender specific. It’s just the degree to which everyone wants to be seen letting [their emotions] all hang out watching it; guys don’t want to do that necessarily, and girls are willing to go there. But it’s in all of us.

Empire Online sat down with the stars of New Moon recently for the inside scoop from the set and more.

Robert Pattinson’s Interview:

Kristen Stewart’s Interview:

Taylor Lautner’s Interview:

Rolling Stone Magazine recently sat down with New Moon’s director, Chris Weitz.

RS: You said everyone’s been asking you about the pressures of taking on such a successful franchise, and they also want to know why vampires are so popular.

Chris: Honestly, there weren’t really any pressures for me because there was a guaranteed audience which meant that even if I made a terrible movie people would still watch it. So once you got that reassurance [laughs], you just set out to make the best movie possible, which is what we aimed to do. And I’ve felt nothing but support from the fans since day one — actually day one there was a little doubt because I have a Y chromosome, but ever since then I’ve felt a lot of love from the fans.

RS: And why vampires?

Chris: I’ve actually realized that Stephenie Meyer’s vampires aren’t really vampires — you really don’t see many crosses, there’s not much garlic, they don’t sleep in coffins, they can go out in the day time — they just look more beautiful. It’s just more like Greek gods. So, in some ways it’s about this girl who falls in love with this demi-god. I think that symbolizes your first love — the person you’ve fallen for who you think will never never possibly return your affections.

Continuing their New Moon countdown, J-14 gives us another interview. This time with Nikki Reed.

J-14: Rosalie Cullen is all about beauty — is that a lot of pressure to play?

Nikki: I feel incredible insecure. I feel embarrassed. At times flattered and at times, I just want to apologize to everybody. You know, I’m really appreciative to have that role, but in order for me to not just like fall apart because of the pressure of playing that character with that description is just sort of unbearable at times.

J-14: Do you try to turn the focus away from her looks?

Nikki: I just tried to look at her as every other aspect aside from her being the most beautiful. When you have like 30 million people reading a book, everyone’s going to picture in their minds who the most beautiful person in the world is — it’s not me and I know that. But I’m really grateful to all those people that think that I fit that — thank you.

Reelz Channel interviewed Robert Pattinson on the red carpet of New Moon’s premiere Monday night.

Robert Pattinson cut short Ryan Seacrest’s “New Moon” premiere interview because he asked Rob how he handles the rumors regarding Kristen Stewart!

**When will people ever learn?!! It’s their PERSONAL lives!! Stop interfering with it!!

Directors are always responsible for taking care of all the movies’ scenes, but when it comes to New Moon’s kissing scene, director Chris Weitz just sits back and let the stars do their work.

How exactly does a person direct two of the biggest movie stars in the world during a make-out scene? How do you approach the task if one’s playing a vampire and the other is still in her teens? For Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart’s “New Moon” lip-lock, director Chris Weitz just sat back and shut up.

“Capturing those [scenes] is really a question of just allowing the actors to do their work,” Weitz told MTV News in a recent interview. “They know their characters. They know the tone they’re supposed to hit.” …
