"TWILIGHT" CAST VISIT "THE ELLEN DEGENERES SHOW"

The Cast of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Pt. 1 on The Ellen DeGeneres Show

The Cast of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Pt. 1 visited The Ellen DeGeneres Show today and revealed some antics that we might not always see in the more serious Romance/Drama Franchise.

Robert Pattinson revealed that in Edward's much-talked about "Babymaking Scene" with Bella (Kristen Stewart) that his "buttcrack" had to be edited-out, drawing some laughs from the Crowd. "You can show cheek, but no crack", Pattinson clarifies.

Taylor Lautner (Jacob), visiting the Show for the first time, also revealed his secret talent of being able to catch flying bits of food with his mouth and Stewart demonstrated by throwing Grapes at him which he v. successfully caught with his mouth.

"SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN": FIRST TRAILER

Still from Snow White and The Huntsman

Wow!  I had high expectations for Rupert Sanders' Snow White and the Huntsman, but I never expected it to look this good.  Although we don't really see much here of Kristen Stewart as Snow White, Charlize Theron as The Evil Queen gives us plenty and them some, making us remember why it is that she won that Oscar back in 2004 with Monster.  Perhaps that bit of a break that she took a couple years back paid off as she's showing that fire again that we haven't seen in her last handful of Films.

The Premise of Snow White and the Huntsman is that The Evil Queen hires The Huntsman (Chris Hemsworth) to take Snow White into the Woods to be killed.  He however, winds-up protecting her from The Queen, causing all sorts of Drama.  Rule of Thumb: don't piss-off The Queen.

ROBERT PATTINSON: FAREWELL, TORONTO!

Robert Pattinson departs Toronto - September 29, 2011

Why, that was quick... wasn't it?  Less than 48 hours after arriving in Toronto to do Automated Dialogue Replacement (Over-dubbing) for David Cronenberg's Cosmopolis, Mr. Eric Packer himself, Robert Pattinson, departs the City.  

Arriving at Toronto Pearson International Airport right around Dinner Time in his SUV, Pattinson sporting some of the scruff we saw the other day, showed his support for the Baltimore Orioles in one of his many Ballcaps and a The Cave Bar (La Cueva) T-Shirt.  Many are speculating that he is headed back to his Hometown of London, where Partner Kristen Stewart not only has been busy at work on Snow White and The Huntsman, but also partaking in London Fashion Week festivities recently.

Thanks once again to Tyrone Kerr for this amazing Photo.  Enjoy, my RPatz Enthusiasts!

NEW PHOTOS FROM "SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN"

Kristen Stewart as Snow White

Although Director Rupert Sanders has yet to begin filming for this eagerly-awaited Snow White and the Huntsman, one of two Snow White movies to hit theatres in 2012, he took to Comic-Con in San Diego with his Principal Cast to create a little bit of buzz. 

With filming slated to begin next week in the UK, Sanders brought three days' worth of test footage to show the audience, giving them an idea what the 3-D Film will be like, in addition to revealing some new photos of Cast members Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron, Sam Claflin and Chris Hemsworth in-costume.

Right at the start of the Conference, Academy Award winner Theron (who just might be appearing at TIFF in September with Jason Reitman's Young Adult), told Stewart "I’m ready for it bitch, let’s go.".  Theron of course will be playing Stewart's (Snow White) nemesis The Queen.  This sure ain't Disney. 

Take a look at the Photos below:

"THE TWILIGHT SAGA" CAST APPEAR AT COMIC-CON 2011

Robert Pattinson in Toronto - July 2011

With Comic-Con 2011 festivities now underway in San Diego, mania has already reached a feverish pitch with the Cast of The Twilight Saga fielding questions about the next installment, Breaking Dawn. Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner all showed-up along with Director Bill Condon who told those in attendance, "There's no bigger fan of Twilight than Kristen. She would always say, 'I know what I felt like when I read this in the book.' She was always pushing, pushing, pushing to make sure she was capturing that feeling.".  Consummate professional!

Because those surrounding the Film wanted to keep as many details under wraps as possible, it is said that Security was extra tight during filming with no E-mails or Cellphones allowed on-set.  Also, a cloak was used to mask any clues to Bella's (Stewart) Wedding Gown for the eagerly-awaited Wedding.

It was also learned via Pattinson who still is rocking the asymmetrical hair he had sported in his final days of filming Cosmopolis in Toronto, that Girlfriend Stewart actually is a huge Fan of The Cooking Channel.  He revealed that she constantly leaves the television on that particular channel. She however was quick to snap back, "And you all reap the benefits!".  Who would've guessed?

Stewart also will be doing a Conference for Snow White and the Huntsman on Saturday along with Co-stars Charlize Theron, Chris Hemsworth and Sam Claflin.

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 hits theatres November 18, 2011.

Watch the Conference in full below:

MORE ROBERT PATTINSON GREETING FANS ON "COSMOPOLIS" SET | KRISTEN STEWART CONFIRMED SIGHTINGS

Robert Pattinson in Toronto - July 2011

You Robert Pattinson Fans are just so wonderful and vocal, so why not give you back even more RPattz? The Cosmopolis star greeted hoards of Toronto Fans on the final outdoor shoot for the Film. The session lasted approximately ten minutes as he made his way through every single Fan  (under 100) in-waiting ensuring they received an Autograph.  It is said that the remainder of filming for the David Cronenberg Film is scheduled til July 19th in Toronto - all interior.  Early reports indicated that some Production would take place in New York City although it is unclear whether this still is on the agenda.

And yes, there were multiple confirmed accounts of his Partner Kristen Stewart accompanying Pattinson to the Set with their Dog Bear.  Our dear Friend Photographer Stephen Fernandez was the only one to snap a shot of her quickly dashing out of their Vehicle into their Trailer.  Click here to see it - it was a blink and miss moment we hear. One Fan tells us that amidst all the frenzy for Pattinson, she had approached their Vehicle, discreetly asking Stewart for an Autograph which she quietly declined with a nod trying to remain under the radar.

Pattinson who normally wears a Baseball Cap when greeting Fans, gave them a peek at his asymmetrical Hipster-esque Hair for the final part of the Film.  What do you think of it?

Why, of course you need to see the Photos!....

ROBERT PATTINSON GREETS FANS ON SET OF "COSMOPOLIS" AND FILMS GUN SCENE

Robert Pattinson greets Fans on set of Cosmopolis

Burning the midnight oil tonight on the set of David Cronenberg's Cosmopolis, Robert Pattinson conserved his energies for an intense scene involving him firing a Gun.  With the Crew being extra cautious on-set this evening in purposefully blocking shots for those looking to take Photographs, opportunities were reduced to seeing Pattinson perform through gaps between shoulders of Crew Members ahead.

Those lucky Fans were patient enough to wait on Pattinson, were rewarded at the 4:15 AM Wrap Time with Autographs being signed generously and one lucky Fan, Deb, who runs both the Cosmopolis Film Blog and also the Twitter account CosmopolisFilm, was wished a Happy Birthday by Pattinson himself, with him taking a Photo with the Birthday Girl!

Despite various rumours floating about that Pattinson's Partner Kristen Stewart was present on-set today after Photos surfaced of her flying out of Los Angeles earlier in the week, these appear to have amounted to hearsay. If she was in fact present as some reports might suggest, she could well have slipped away discreetly before midnight as many watchful eyes were on Pattinson's Trailer during shooting.

Just like the first time I met him, he was just as wonderful today to Fans and it was a delight seeing Pattinson express his gratitude to his loyal supporters.  

Watch a Clip I got of him interacting with Fans below:

ROBERT PATTINSON & TAYLOR LAUTNER SHARE KISS AT 2011 MTV MOVIE AWARDS

Taylor Lautner & Robert Pattinson kiss at 2011 MTV Movie Awards

In what will be remembered as the most shockingly defining moment of the 2011 MTV Movie Awards, Robert Pattinson went into the audience where The Twilight Saga Co-star Taylor Lautner was sitting... and kissed him!  After much speculation that tonight would be the first time in which Pattinson and Girlfriend/Co-Star Kristen Stewart would be kissing publicly upon receiving their award for Best Kiss, Pattinson managed to break the tension successfully with his surprise move.  Pattinson also won Best Male Performance for The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.

Jason Sudeikis of NBC's Saturday Night Live hosted for the first-time ever providing for several awkward moments, including making reference to Blake Lively's recent Nude Photo Scandal when introducing her and  Green Lantern Co-star Ryan Reynolds on-stage as Presenters.

Reese Witherspoon who received the MTV Generation Award for her body of work, gave younger Actresses a bit of advice, "If you're gonna take nude photos of yourself, cover your face!".  Calling, Blake Lively....

ROBSTENMANIA HITS TORONTO

Photo of Robert Pattinson by Cynthia Oh

With a few reported Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart sightings having circulated on Twitter, it is safe to say that Robstenmania has begun in Toronto.

Paparazzi and Fans alike staked-out the Hotel where the low-key Couple are alleged to be staying from as early as 5:00 AM Sunday morning through 11:00 PM, without a trace of the Couple and their beloved Rescue Dog, Bear in sight. Undeterred and determined to get that first Toronto Robsten Shot, some Paparazzi were out again early this morning ready and armed with their SLRs.  Without a confirmed sighting from a credible source, the question is bring raised, "Are Robsten nocturnal?" - as in like real Vampires?

As many of you Twihards know, Pattinson arrived in Toronto Saturday night getting ready to begin production on David Cronenberg's Cosmopolis, as confirmed via a Tweet from Twitter User Cynthia Oh (Sojinski).  Oh spotted Pattinson carrying his Guitar and a Duffle Bag at Pearson International Airport. He was wearing an outfit identical to the one he was seeing in, while leaving Sydney Airport earlier in the day.

Stewart, as confirmed only a couple days prior via Thor Actress Jaimie Alexander, was spotted in town.  Stay tuned....  I'm on this, Twihards.

KRISTEN STEWART SPOTTED IN TORONTO

Jaimie Alexander's Tweets

Your first evidence that Robert Pattinson will soon be arriving in Toronto!  Actress Jaimie Alexander who currently stars in Thor, just arrived in Toronto on Thursday and Tweeted earlier this evening that she met none other than Kristen Stewart ....and also Pattinson's Dog, Bear.  Stewart was spotted just earlier this week in New York with Bear as Pattinson was busy doing promotional duties for his latest title Water for Elephants. Rejoice, Twihards and Fangirls!

Alexander however isn't listed as a Cast member for Pattinson's Cosmopolis, which begins filming May 25, 2011.  Sony Pictures' Total Recall starring Colin Farrell however, begins filming in just over one week (May 16, 2011), so the timing seems right...  Hmm.  We'll soon know!

THE 37TH ANNUAL PEOPLE'S CHOICE AWARDS

Natalie Portman and Ashton Kutcher

Only at the People's Choice Awards would these results ever fly! The Twilight Saga: Eclipse won top honours tonight at the 37th annual People's Choice Awards winning awards for Favourite Movie and Favourite Drama Movie. Among other Winners this evening were Katy Perry for Favourite Internet Sensation and Female Artist, Taylor Swift for Favourite Country Artist, Rihanna for Favourite Pop Artist and Glee for Favourite TV Comedy.

Click here to read a full list of Winners.

Other than Host Queen Latifah always being wonderful, the highlight of the show came late with a visibly pregnant Natalie Portman and her No Strings Attached co-star Ashton Kutcher, stepping-out to present the award for Favourite Movie to the principal cast members of Eclipse, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and Robert Pattinson. Portman looked radiant, although a bit like a fish out of water from the overwhelming fanfare.

And seriously, what was Kutcher thinking wearing an ensemble more suited for doing Groceries: a Pea Coat, Jeans and T-Shirt?  If this is any indication of their on-screen chemistry in upcoming Sex Comedy No Strings Attached, I think I'll just have to skip it.

REVIEW: THE RUNAWAYS

The Runaways is every bit as fearless as a rock 'n' roll film should be.  Music Video-turned-Film director Floria Sigismondi has directed some of the most influencial icons of our time: Christina Aguilera, Björk, David Bowie, The Cure, Sheryl Crow and Marilyn Manson, to name a few.  The Toronto-based director's signature shaky camera work has won her accolades, setting an artistic precedent.  Her latest effort centers around the rise of '70s teen all-girl rock band The Runaways, headed by sex kitten Cherie Currie (Dakota Fanning) and now-rock icon Joan Jett (Kristen Stewart).  

The band was guided under the tutelage of record producer Kim Crowley (Michael Shannon) whose relentless drive to capitalize from the rock 'n' roll angst he instilled in the girls  brought them to meteoric success around the world, while at the same time tearing the girls apart.  He encourages them to "think with their cocks".  Currie is hand-picked by Crowley as The Runaways' lead singer based on her Brigitte Bardot-like looks.  Jett is the true heart and soul of the group with her sheer talent and no-nonsense dedication to the band's credibility in a time where sexism was much more magnified in rock music than today.  Fanning and Stewart lend their vocals to the film's soundtrack doing credible jobs, while the music is incorporated seamlessly into the storyline.

THE RUNAWAYS: MORE THAN JUST A KISS

I love it when Film and Music come together, especially when it's done right. Apparition/River Road Entertainment's first collaboration The Runaways is a biopic based on the popular mid-70s punk band of the same name.  The film stars teen heavyweights Kristen Stewart (Panic Room, Twilight) and Dakota Fanning (I Am Sam, The Twilight Saga: A New Moon) and has already received rave reviews at Sundance Film Festival this past January, where it premiered.  

The Runaways follows the teen years of Joan Jett and Cherie Currie, both Valley Girls, who transform into punk-rock legends in defining an era of teenage angst.  Together they opened the doors for many women in rock music today.

In addition to acting in the film, both Stewart and Fanning who play Jett and Currie respectively, actually sing in the film.  Fanning performs two solo numbers on the soundtrack including covers of Cherry Bomb and California Paradise.  The two collaborated on four remakes for the film's soundtrack, which will be released March 23, 2010 via Warner Music.  Joan Jett jumped aboard the project as Executive Producer, so that any authenticity concerns can be alleviated.

The film features a much heralded girl-on-girl kissing scene between its two lead actresses.  Intriguing, yet absolutely Pervalicious.  "It wasn't that big of a deal. It's just another part of the story. This kiss was passionate - Joan and Cherie were just as close as two could get", said Fanning at the Sundance Film Festival Q&A. 

VANITY FAIR - HOLLYWOOD'S NEW "IT GIRLS"

.... and a warm welcome goes to Hollywood's newest batch of "It Girls".  These photos above, taken by Annie Leibowitz will be appearing in the March 2010 issue of Vanity Fair and Evgenia Peretz does a brief profile on each of these talented young actresses.

Sasha Stone at one of my favourite blogs Awards Daily, really nailed it on the head though - there are no minorities in this group of actresses.  The Huffington Post made a similar observation.  Is Hollywood really progressing enough to cast actors who are truly indicative of America's social reality?  Or has a wider ethnic spectrum of talent been excluded in this photo shoot?

Included in the group are:

• Carey Mulligan who is getting a lot of Oscar buzz for her breakthrough performance in An Education. I did have the opportunity to meet her last fall at TIFF and she is absolutely delightful.
• Kristen Stewart, star of Twilight and A New Moon.  Her next film in theatres this March is The Runaways, which has her playing rock legend Joan Jett.
• Amanda Seyfried, best known perhaps for her ability to predict weather with her boobs in Mean Girls and for starring alongside Meryl Streep in Mamma Mia.  I also got to meet her a TIFF this past September and she's another sweetheart. Her latest tear-jerker Dear John is also poised to debut big at the Box Office.
• Abbie Cornish, who is getting a bit of Oscar buzz for her turn in Bright Star.
• Rebecca Hall who gave us a wow one-two punch with strong performances in Woody Allen's Vicky Christina Barcelona and then Frost/Nixon.  Love her.
• Emma Stone who was hilarious in The House Bunny as a "sacrificed virgin" and also in Box Office champ Zombieland.
• Anna Kendrick, star of Twilight and Best Supporting Actress contender for her role alongside George Clooney in Up in the Air.  I was inches away from her at TIFF, but had no idea who she was at that point :(
• Evan Rachel Wood, who hasn't quite exceeded the promise she showed in Catherine Hardwicke's Thirteen, but is still undeniably one of the best in her generation.
• Mia Wasikowska, whom I have seen only briefly in failed Amelia Earheart biopic Amelia, but her upcoming starring role in Alice in Wonderland almost guarantees that she will be a big star.

Click here to read the rest of Peretz's write-up.  What I'm really excited to see though is Leibowitz's annual Oscar contender portraits, which will also be featured in the issue.
