Information on the 'Water For Elephants' US premiere

Mann Theaters website posted in their "Upcoming Premieres" section about a Los Angeles Water For Elephants taking place at Grauman’s Chinese Theater in Hollywood on April 14, 2011. Here what The Official Water for Elephants page on Facebook had to say:

The April 14Th premiere in LA is what we are trying to execute. Robert is still filming for Summit at that time so we have not locked it in.

We will have one U.S. Premiere. We have two theaters reserved but until we have everyone's schedules confirmed won't make a decision

@Hibbits tweeted about a NYC Premiere on April 17th, but it seems that nothing has been confirmed

A couple more updates about the NYC premiere

We were hoping to have NY premiere on the 17th, that was the tentative plan. Due to Summit's filming, Rob may not be able to be there so we have another event planned in LA since he may be able to make that. We are in limbo until we hear which he can make.

We still have both dates reserved. We won't know which we are able to do until Rob wraps up with Twilight.

There are currently NO confirmed premiere dates, and when the dates are confirmed, we will announce them here (on the official FB page) and on our Official Twitter account (@WaterElephants)

If you missed: the first questions he answered HERE

@ChrisWeitz:

@effie10 @chrisweitz 1Why weren't Edward's eyes black in Volterra?2Why didn't he break anything after the vote?3Why was the after-party drive deleted
1) I goofed, 2) ditto, 3) Only so much time in the movie!!!

@JodieO @chrisweitz Only so much time? You had plenty of time for Jacob, though, didn'tcha?!
Well, Jacob is imperfect, like me. Except I am not super hot.

@maricheq @Chrisweitz team edward or team jacob?
Please... I don't want to get in trouble

@TwiFans @chrisweitz do you feel slightly bad for selling out on the "silver" volvo? Would you change that if you could?
Not when I drive my bitchin' BLACK VOLVO! Just kidding, I drive a Honda accord.

@renesemma @chrisweitz are they really an item? robsten?
An item like a glass or a lamp? Certainly not. ;)

@Twihardfj65 "@renesemma: @chrisweitz are they really an item? robsten?
Lemme be very straight here, without trying to sound mean. Kristen is my friend. Rob is my friend. Their personal lives are their own.

@Twihardfj65 @chrisweitz "you are so right,i apologise and shouldn't have asked,:( sorry:
chrisweitz Ees okay!

@Naomi_Kane @chrisweitz what was it like working with Robert Pattinson ....any funny set stories? : ) x
He calls a somersault a "roly poly".

@Kstewcrush@chrisweitz Hey so youv worked with my 2 fav actresses, bein angie and kristen, do you think they are similar in ways?
To be honest, hard to say. I barely met Ms. Jolie.

@offline82@chrisweitz what's kristen's non serious side like? does she have fun too?
Of course! But she does not invite me

@_kstewfans@chrisweitz How was working with Kristen? Please, answer :D
Kristen is very committed, serious, incredibly hard on herself, natural and has teh world's best BS detector.

@EdwardsLove82 @chrisweitz What is your favorite thing about Rob Pattinson??
His sense of humor, and the fact that he remembers my name

Billy Burke talks Kristen, Breaking Dawn & more

People are comparing this movie to Twilight. Why do you think that is?
Here’s what my guess is. There is a love triangle. There’s a young girl and two gentlemen vying for her attention. That’s probably the biggest comparison. Other than that, there’s a wolf in it. [laughs] There’s sweeping shots across the mountains in the trailer and there were some in Twilight, so I think that’s what people are looking at.

Any update you can give me on Breaking Dawn?
I’m here in Vancouver right now filming. The stache is here in all its glory. After this film, I’m not sure the stache in this form will ever return to my face. This has been a great gig for me. I don’t think that there’s any relief at all, if there were more books and more movies, I’d probably keep coming back. It’s a fun role to play and I love the peeps involved. As far as being sad, I don’t know if that’s going to happen. I’m certainly not going to be glad, though.

Fans are dying to know if the scene between Charlie and Bella after the wedding be kept in the movie?
I do have a scene with Kristen directly after the wedding, before they take off for the honeymoon.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SunTimes Billy Burke knows he might be the most clueless father in history. As Bella’s pop in the “Twilight” saga, he never really has noticed that his daughter is, oh, dating a vampire.

“I know, I know,” says actor Billy Burke. “He doesn’t know. My character Charlie does have to resign himself to being oblivious.”

Especially now. In the two upcoming “Breaking Dawn” movies, Bella and Edward will make it all public. The “Twilight’ers” now are filming the last installment of the hit franchise. “He finds out and his entire world gets cranked upside down,” says Burke.

As for a vampire son-in-law, he opines, “The way Charlie explains it away is that he understands his daughter is her own person. She will do what she wants to do. She will go after what she loves. He respects that.”

Filming will conclude in April. “This is it,” Burke says. “There are no more books. I’m not sad. It’s been a good ride. It can’t go on forever, even though I’m sure in the hearts of the ‘Twi’ fans it will. I’m just proud of be part of Hollywood history.”

The Twilight Saga: New Moon director, @ChrisWeitz, recently joined Twitter and answered some fan questions.

@heyitsdani@chrisweitz what do you think about water for elephants' trailer, new Robert pattinson movie?
That's my boy right there. Looks lovely. I'm in line 1st weekend.

@momsenstew@chrisweitz What did you think of Welcome To The Riley's with KStew? :)
As I've said, I think Kristen is one of the best actresses of her generation. She can do no wrong in my book. But the mouth on that kid ;)

Twi Ass rhymes with "My Ass"! Don't hate on the Kstew.

@JodieO@chrisweitz When you agreed to direct New Moon did you realize you would be answering Rob and Kristen questions for the next 45 years?
If that guarantees me 45 more years of life, sure.

@mystyna@chrisweitz Favorite song from new moon soundtrack?
The Bon Iver... or the Tom Yorke...

@lolaknown@chrisweitz Which cuss word did Kristen utter when she had to put on the vampire laura ingles dress on NM? Do tell!
It should have been, "Chris, this is a f-cking stupid idea for a scene".

@NikiMarieR@chrisweitz Umm... did Taylor Lautner diss you? Why aren't you talking about him? :p ...or are you trying to help promote current movies?
Taylor and I are v. cool -- just texted him a restaurant recommendation. He only eats charred meat at the moment.

@AmandaNicolette@chrisweitz Most difficult scene to shoot in New Moon? :)
What we liked to call "The roundy-round scene" (depression cgi change of seasons)

@liSita80@chrisweitz What was the funniest thing that happened on the set of New Moon?
When I tried to prove to Kristen that it would be easy to shoot her underwater scene by going 10 feet underwater with wights on my wetsuit and panicked.

@Browneyedgirl_68 @chrisweitz Which wld u say is easier, 2 b screenwriter or Director? Was there anything in NM that you wish could've changed in hindsight?
Directing is more fun because you get to stride around acting important, but everyone asks you questions all the time. Writing is more relaxing, but I get tired of my own company.

@tinkrbe1l3@chrisweitz what happened to that kissing scene Chris...the one OUTSIDE in Montepulciano? (still love what u did with NM :))
Oh. Well, even with R+K, too much of a good thing...

@and78@chrisweitz Anyone ever baked you a loquat pie?
Are you kidding? When do people NOT bake me loquat pies? Love'em.

@caitlin71Ann@chrisweitz were you sad that you got stuck with the most depressing twilight saga book to direct?
No! I love gloomy! See About a Boy!

@robzsinger1@chrisweitz Is Rob even more dreamy in person? do tell. ;)
He is so dreamy that I am sometimes asleep while talking to him.

@fridiuks@chrisweitz Which twilight charater would you play in a Twilight movie???
I'm sort of a Mike. Or a Gran. Or maybe Jane. Yeah, she's badass.
