Sneak Peak at New Moon

EW.com has some new pictures from New Moon and some exclusive on-the-set-scoop from behind the scenes of New Moon.


''Of course it's different,'' says Kristen Stewart. Okay, maybe it was silly to ask if things had changed since she filmed Twilight a year ago. New Moon, the second movie adapted from Stephenie Meyer's novels, is shooting in Vancouver, Canada, instead of Oregon; fans are now showing up in droves; and director Chris Weitz (The Golden Compass) has taken the reins. In the movie, Bella (Stewart) has been abandoned by her vampire love, Edward (Robert Pattinson), but she hears his voice in her thoughts, even as she finds herself drawn to her friend Jacob (Taylor Lautner). ''When you get broken up with, it really is the worst thing in the world,'' says Weitz. ''Meyer gives a kind of supernatural context to people's real feelings, which sums up what we all go through.''
Happy birthday, Bella! In this EW exclusive photo, the movie's newly 18-year-old heroine has been thrown against a rose-covered table by her beloved, Edward. Readers will know his intentions were honorable: He was trying to protect Bella (and her paper cut!) from the vampire Jasper. ''The whole cast is reading the book and wanting to get it right,'' says Weitz (center, with Stewart, assistant director Mike Topoozian, and makeup artist Robin Mathews). ''They want to deliver on the promise these books make to the readers.''


''I'm telling Bella not to be fearful of death. It's inevitable and painless,'' says Edi Gathegi, who returns in New Moon as the somewhat mysterious vampire Laurent, in this EW exclusive photo. ''He was bad in Twilight, but still had some compassion. Let's just say he's not conflicted anymore.''
One of director Weitz's creative challenges is Edward's long absence in the novel: ''Rob was the first guy to say to me, 'You know, you don't really need to have too much of me in this film.' I don't want him too present, so his apparition will be a subtle, flitting effect — clearly a reflection of Bella's will and desire to see him.''

Now, I understand that this movie is a fiction and it is about vampires and werewolves. So I'm not going to question anything in relation to the story itself.

The only thing I liked about New Moon is Jacob's and his friend's transformation into wolves..
