BellaAndEdward.com: Besides Carlisle, who else would you like to portray in the movie? Peter Facinelli: I remember reading the book and connecting with Carlisle. I'm very happy to be playing him. I don't think there is another role I would rather play.
BAE: Twilight has been said to be the next Harry Potter, how do you feel
about being a part of this phenomenon? PF: The Twilight books have been very popular, and I can only hope the movie
is as successful as the novels. I am very excited at the possibility of
being a part of making all of the books in the series into movies, like
the Harry Potter franchise has done.
BAE: Where/how do you think this movie is going to differ from the book? PF: I think some of the story has been condensed, as it is hard to fit
500+ pages into a two hour movie, and some of the action sequences
in the book may go into more detail, adding some "action" elements, to
the beautiful love story.
BAE: I've heard that there's a new scene at a marina that's been added to
the movie. Can you tell us what that's about? PF: Edward and Bella go scuba diving.... Just kidding. I'm not sure how
much I can actually tell you as I wouldn't want to spoil any surprises.
BAE: What scene(s) are you most looking forward to being able to shoot
(from Twilight and/or its sequels)? PF: I really enjoyed playing "Vampire Baseball". And I hope if we get to do
the sequels, that they have some fun action sequences of us fighting
alongside the werewolves from Eclipse.
BAE: Are your daughters fans of Twilight? PF: My oldest is ten, and she has just begun to read Twilight. I tell her
tales from the books, or from Carlisle's backstory, as bedtime stories
and she loves it.
BAE: Are you enjoying your two weeks off? :D PF: It's always nice to get a little break, but I look forward to going back
and finishing up. I've been spending most of my time in the shade, hiding from the
California sun. Can't afford to get any color on my Forks pale skin.
PF: Thanks for all of your questions, and I hope you enjoy the movie.

About: I was skeptical at first about the series. All my friends were reading it in 9th grade and I just wasn't into it. I had been burned pretty bad by a relationship and I just wasn't believing the whole 'love story' thing. Then, on one fateful night, I was at a book sale and was desperately seeking a new read. Twilight seemed to be glowing on the shelf and I was drawn to buy it. I didn't know why, like I said, I didn't want to even think about love. I went home and cracked open the fresh book. I instantly related to Bella. Her feelings became my feelings. Her curiosity became my curiosity. I carried the book around with me everywhere I went. I found myself even slowing down in reading it because I didn't want it to end. I closed the back cover and took a deep breath, then I realized something. I had learned to believe in love again. A simple book and taught me to believe in what I thought just couldn't exist. I also learned that every girl deserves their very own Edward Cullen. No one should settle for just some guy. He needs to be your guy. Your dream guy. Well, let's say I am not a skeptic anymore. As a freshman in college, I find myself having a lot of free time to re-read the books... again. I have my own 59 song playlist for all the books on my i-Tunes and I love that it brings me back to the moments in the books. I have met so many people just by saying that I am a "Twilighter". It amazing how passionate you can become about a novel. I am so happy I bought Twilight on a whim. It has transformed my life and taught me so much about myself. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to share my Twilight story.

About: Recently, my youngest aunt died unexpectedly in her sleep.I was left in the most depressed mood that I've ever experienced. I felt like something inside my heart had fallen out, was missing, and would never come back. It was a physical condition that literally made me uncomfortable. I thought of New Moon, and how Bella feels throughout that book. She is always holding herself together with her crossed arms. I realized that this was the closest description to what I was feeling. My chest hurt, like it was falling apart inside. Then I thought of how Bella turns into a zombie for several months and decided that I didn't want to be like that. I didn't want to lose myself in grief, and I know my aunt wouldn't have wanted me to do that either. I know that this case is different, in that I will never get that piece of my heart back for good, but I don't want to be like Zombie Bella. I want to be strong, like Bella becomes after her loss. I will never forget how Twilight helped me straighten my thoughts and fix myself in the worst times of my life. It takes an amazing book to do something like that. And an amazing writer to portray such a real and painful emotion so realistically. From all of the ways that Twilight has changed my life, this is definitely the biggest. It helpled to support me when I thought nothing could, and gave me hope when everything in my world was bleak.
