Kellan Lutz Talks ‘New Moon’

Jul 2, 2009 at 7:00pm

Kellan Lutz—or Emmett Cullen as the Twilight faithful know him—recently posed for a photo-shoot with heiress Lydia Hearst for Social Life Magazine, and it gave him a chance to divulge more information about the highly anticipated Twilight sequel New Moon.

As it turns out, there’s nothing but good news to report.

“New Moon was a very relaxed film to work on and it all starts with how easy-going director Chris Weitz is,” Lutz notes, echoing the sentiment of several of his co-stars. “That vibe rolls down to the crew and actors. It makes it so easy when we’ve all worked together before. Everything was so well organized, making it easy for the actors to do our job. We had more time to just laugh and make jokes and hang out; it’s important to have a cast that gels the way we do and you’ll see that more in the second film.”

From all accounts, the cast is becoming more like a clique.

“It’s a dream come true!” Lutz raves. “We are all very close and stay close on set as well as off. We play board games, go out to dinner and just hang out. It’s amazing to be able to work with such a talented group of actors.”
