They talk about whether they would want their vampire powers in real life, how much they like they enjoyed the hospitality of Montepulciano, what the bad parts of playing the Volturi are, and more. You can listen to the interviews in English using audio players, as well as read the rough Google translation here.
Check out these amazing pictures of Dakota Fanning and Ashley Greene all dressed up as Alice Cullen and Jane of the Volturi while they were filming in Italy! Look–it’s Jane’s dress! Woah! Check out the rest of the story over at the Eagle Pictures Twilight blog including pics of the underground wine cellar location to be used for the Volturi that we first reported on a couple of weeks ago.
Is this Dakota Fanning in full Jane makeup for New Moon? It sure looks like it. Thoughts?
Three of the lovely ladies from New Moon–Kristen Stewart, Dakota Fanning and Ashley Greene–had what appears to be lunch in Italy. The pics are pretty uninteresting but enough people have sent them in that I’m going to bow to peer pressure and post them.

Volturi vamps Charlie Bewley and Daniel Cudmore are set to star in New Moon and were spotted in Italy where filming is taking place. Newcomer Charlie Bewley is looking particularly dashing in the Italian sunlight!
Check out the rest of the pics at the Insider, as well as a new interview with Charlie at the TwiLex.
Check out this amazing account from an extra on the set of New Moon on their experience so far on the set–
The crew was very quick and organized, and divided all the extras into groups: “the drivers”, “the reds”, and “the blacks”. We felt like the prey of the production company. They then offered us breakfast, which I was grateful for since my stomach was complaining more than Rosalie. Me and all the other drivers (there were about a hundred of us), were then told to park in the front of the main entrance of the town, where a yellow Porsche was also parked! My God, what a beautiful car! The rest of the extras were taken inside the city wall, where they would be shooting the reunion between Edward and Bella later in the week.
The wait was unnerving. And extremely long. In the meantime, we learned the shooting schedule: Monday is rehearsals, Tuesday inside the city again, Wednesday and Thursday in the city square (Where there is expected to be 1000 extras), and Friday was for any needed reshoots. While I was waiting, I saw a really pretty girl with brown hair in jeans and t-shirt. For a second I thought it was Kristen Stewart, but then I realized it was her stunt double. The similarities between the two was striking, especially from behind.
At around 10pm, it’s our turn. When arrived in front of the door, Chris Weitz’s assistant, Bill, arranged the order of all the cars. Every time he looked at me and my car, he smiled. They then began tests with the Porsche, with Bella’s and Alice’s stunt doubles. And here’s the funny part: Alice had a stunt MAN, instead of a woman. He was wearing a headscarf, sunglasses, a red leather glove and a long grey coat with big silver buttons. Bella’s stunt double, instead, was dressed very simply, wearing only a green sweater and jeans.
The tests of the Porsche were seemingly never-ending, they really wanted it to be perfect. They did not overlook even the smallest detail: everything -from the placement of the car to all the car sounds- had to be just right. They even were overly careful with all the red flags placed around Montepulciano. The crew was sweaty and shouting us to get in our places, to which we obliged. Bill (Weitz’s assistant) was always calm and smiling, every once in a while stopping to talk to us on set.

There aren’t any official New Moon posters for the Voltur yeti, so NMM.org reader TalieX decided to give it a go. I think it’s a fresh and unique approach–what do you guys think? Talie also sent in her mashup of the official New Moon posters with Bella, Edward, Jacob and the wolf pack joined together similar to the desktop wallpaper we saw a few days ago. Read on to see the poster.
Check out these new pictures from inside the New Moon cast party that took place last Friday at the Blue Water Cafe in Vancouver. Is that Charlie Bewley (Demetri) sitting between Michael Sheen (Aro) and Cameron Bright (Alec)?
