Taylor Lautner New Moon!

Posted on January 8th, 2009 in Taylor Lautner, Twilight by lalate

Taylor Lautner New Moon


Taylor Lautner CONFIRMED for New Moon! Taylor Lautner is IN for New Moon says Summit Entertainment today.

Taylor Lautner was made official today by Stephanie Meyer who put on her website the following message from Chris Weitz :

I’m very happy to announce that Taylor Lautner will be playing Jacob Black in New Moon and that he’s doing so with the enthusiastic support of Summit Entertainment, the producers, and Stephenie Meyer.

The characters in Stephenie’s books go through extraordinary changes of circumstance and also appearance; so it is not surprising that there has been speculation about whether the same actor would portray a character who changes in so many surprising ways throughout the series. But it was my first instinct that Taylor was, is, and should be Jacob, and that the books would be best served by the actor who is emotionally right for the part. I think that fans of Twilight the book and the movie will be surprised by the Jacob Black that Taylor will bring to the screen in New Moon; and I’m looking forward to working with him and the rest of the cast in realizing the film.

very best

Chris Weitz

Meyer added she was part of the decision to keep Taylor, but that Taylor had “proved” (apparently he had to prove something?) to “the director, to Summit, and to me” that he was best Jacob.

Congrats to Taylor.

AnnaLynne McCord Kellan Lutz

9021-0H! AnnaLynne McCord and Kellan Lutz?! AnnaLynne McCord (90210) and Kellan Lutz (Twilight) are reportedly dating. McCord and Lutz were a couple on New Years Eve, but that didn’t stop Lutz from kissing another woman, says reports.

One report says the pair hit up Shore Club in Miami, but after midnight, the report claims:

“McCord caught her drunken beau smooching another woman. “AnnaLynne was speechless,” our spy said. “She was noticeably upset and stormed off. Kellan followed her and was seen groveling and begging for her forgiveness and they made up.” “

No comment by either.

Robert Pattinson Contact Lenses!

Robert Pattinson Contact Lenses

Robert Pattinson hates contact lenses. Robert Pattinson reveals wearing contact lenses is the worse part about doing Twilight. Paterson has to wear topaz-colored contacts.

Pattinson dishes his dislike for contacts:

“Wearing colored contact lenses… It was like I constantly had sand in my eyes. I was wearing them for three months constantly and my eyes never ever accepted them!

“It took me 20 minutes per eye every single day and I ended up having to literally fold it into my eyeball.

“It was frustrating as well because normally your eyes are saying something, but if you’ve got two orange blobs in your face it’s so annoying!

“The director [Catherine Hardwicke] would say, ‘Look at her [Kristen Stewart] like you love her,’ and I’d be like, ‘I’m trying!’ I’m going to have to do it again because we’re making the sequel next year.”

Do you hate contacts also? LALATE really hates them!

Each collector figure posseses multiple points of articulated joints for maximum posing ability. 15″ Bella Swan features a new teenage female body sculpt (with interchangeable shoes and limited clothing interchangeability with the 16″ Tyler Wentworth body sculpt), and Edward Cullen features the 17″ Matt O’Neill body sculpt.”

Chris Weitz New Moon!

Chris Weitz New Moon


Chris Weitz for New Moon? Chris Weitz may direct Twilight’s sequels New Moon and Eclipse.

Chris Weitz will replace on New Moon the exiting Catherine Hardwicke who Santa Monica based Summit Entertainment confirmed days ago is in fact off for the Twilight sequel.

While no confirmation from Weitz or Summit to the new report, this would mark a stark change from Twilight that gave Catherine the highest boxoffice opener ever by a female director.

Catherine Hardwicke Twilight OUT!

Posted on December 8th, 2008 in Catherine Hardwicke, Twilight by lalate

Catherine Hardwicke Twilight OUT

Catherine Hardwicke is OUT for Twilight’s sequel NEW MOON! Catherine Hardwicke will NOT do Twilight’s sequel New Moon as its director. Catherine Hardwicke on Twilight brought the highest weekend box office opener for a female director ever, as LALATE first reported to you.

Now LALATE’s neighbor, Santa Monica based Summit Entertainment, has issued a press release late Sunday about Catherine’s exit.

“Summit Entertainment and director Catherine Hardwicke jointly announced today that the filmmaker will not be directing the next installment in the newly minted TWILIGHT film franchise. Summit’s targeted end of 2009 or early 2010 release of the film, NEW MOON, does not work with Ms. Hardwicke’s required prep time to bring her vision of the film to the big screen. Thus as has been done before with many successful film franchises, the studio will employ a new director for NEW MOON.

” “I am sorry that due to timing I will not have the opportunity to direct NEW MOON,” said Hardwicke. “Directing TWILIGHT has been one of the great experiences of my life, and I am grateful to the fans for their passionate support of the film. I wish everyone at Summit the best with the sequel– it is a great story.”

” “Catherine did an incredible job in helping us to launch the TWILIGHT franchise and we thank her for all of her efforts and we very much hope to work with her on future Summit projects,” said Erik Feig, Summit’s President of Production. “We as a studio have a mandate to bring the next installment in the franchise to the big screen in a timely fashion so that fans can get more of Edward, Bella and all of the characters that Stephenie Meyer has created. We are able to pursue an aggressive time frame as we have the luxury of only adapting the novels into screenplays as opposed to having to create a storyline from scratch.”

So who was the one who came up with the stunning look of Twilight?

Sources claim to Nikki Finke it was the DP, not Hardwicke: “Summit didn’t like her. They’re saying the DP [director of photography] Elliot Davis is the one responsible for the film’s sumptuous visual look, that the editor Nancy Richardson had to save the film in post-production, and Summit thought Hardwicke’s [CAA] agent Beth Swofford was alternately ineffectual and hysterical.”
