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: When I first heard about the Twilight series, I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical about reading them. As any other skeptic, I didn't believe the story would be able to affect my life at all. Wow, was I wrong. My friend Erin starting reading Twilight and told me how amazing it was, so I decided that I would read them for myself. When she finished with Twilight, I immediately immersed myself in reading, and after the first sentence, I could NOT put the book down. I had never realized that a story could make me feel SO differently about life, but this book honestly did. I wanted to start reading New Moon right away, but my friend was still reading it and taking FOREVER (in my opinion), so I decided to leave my school's campus and buy the books for myself so that I wouldn't have to wait. It took me four days to finish the books. When I was finished, I wanted MORE. I could hardly wait for the movie to come out, and all of my daydreams and fantasies were concerning Edward and his silent perfection. Before reading the books, I always thought romance novels and love were pointless, there's no such thing as love, right? Well, after reading Twilight my mind has been extremely changed. Because I was raised in a small town, I never believed that I would ever be able to find love, especially the intense love like Edward and Bella's. I know now that everyone deserves to experience love like this. Every girl out there is just looking to be someone's Bella, and to find their own Edward. I have hope that someone for me is out there, and I will continue to re-read the books and enjoy the movies. Although my friends tell me I'm slightly obsessed, (maybe I am hehe) but I will always hold a special place in my heart for everything about the series.
