Catherine Hardwicke wants Robert & Kristen back
Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke has been hard at work promoting her new flick,Red Riding Hood, with Amanda Seyfried. But that doesn’t mean she’s forgotten past stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.
“I’d love to [work with them again], if the right project comes up at the right time, that would be awesome,” Cath dished at the RRH premiere Monday.
“I think they’re wonderful; they’re super close to my heart.”
Know why?
Because she takes credit for getting them together, duh! Although she proceeded with caution at the time.
“I was exactly right there when they first met, so I saw it all from the beginning,” Hardwicke told us years ago about Robsten’s romance. “I saw that they both had that wonderful fascination with each other, and that’s why I cast Rob.”
Would you all like to see a Catherine, Rob, and Kristen reunion on screen? We would!
Just last summer there were rumors that Pattinson and Stewart were going to star in Summit’s adaptation of Men are From Mars, Women are From Venus.
While Kristen told us that was not true, she did say she would want to work with Rob in a non-sparkly vampire project.
“Yeah, we talk about it all the time,” beamed K.Stew.
Obviously we want this to happen! But what should the family reunion be, exactly?
Catherine Hardwicke says Kristen is “Perfect” for the role of Snow White
Don’t mess with Snow White.
Especially if Kristen Stewart is playing her…
As you may have heard, the Twilight starlet is in final negotiations to take on the fairest of them all role in Snow White and the Huntsman.
“I love it,” Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke told us last night at the Hollywood premiere of her new flick, Red Riding Hood. “She’s going to be a bad ass, learning how to hunt. That is perfect for Kristen!
“She’s an athlete,” Hardwicke continued. “She’s a kick-ass chick. She’s going to do good in that.”
Charlize Theron is also in final talks for the Rupert Sanders-directed movie to play the Evil Queen along with Viggo Mortensen as the Huntsman, according to Deadline.

Max Irons says Rob has "been gifted and cursed"
The son of acting couple Jeremy Irons and Sinead Cusack hit the red carpet in Hollywood to premiere the new thriller in which he plays Amanda Seyfried’s love interest.
Having been cast and directed in the movie by Twilight’s Catherine Hardwicke, Max confessed he takes any Pattinson comparisons as a compliment.
“Well Robert’s a lovely actor, [but] this is a different beast to the film that shall not be named!” he joked, before adding: “You know, I think he’s been gifted and cursed.”
The 25-year-old explained: “All you want to be able to do as an actor is work and to be able to focus on the work. For lack of a better term, the celebrity is consequential and all you should be doing is focusing on the quality of your work and kind of, I think, ignoring the rest of it.
“If I can do that and have a long, long career and not a short, short career that’s all I want.
“Robert by the way is going to have a long, long career,” Max added. “I have a feeling about that… because he’s English!”
Robert Pattinson sings the blues + NEW Vanity Fair photo
On the landmark birthday, Jaffe says he and the rest of the band are humbled: “It’s really momentous for us to reach this moment in our history, considering everything New Orleans has been through in the last five years,” he says. “It’s really a testament to the strength of the people of this city.” Preservation Hall endured a several-month hiatus post-Katrina and reopened in May 2006, structure miraculously intact. We say miraculously, because the hall’s charm is that it looks as though it might collapse at any moment—it’s one big happy jalopy of a 350-year-old structure, with all the glorious paint-peel-y, rusty-hinged patina of a Clementine Hunter painting. It strains at the seams with ambiance. And we hope, lack of air conditioning and all, that it never changes.
Lee Pace talks about Rob, Kristen and Bill Condon

It's not every day that actors like Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson become as big as they have without changing at least a tiny bit.
But it's true. As I've always said, these two are the same today as they were when they first signed up for Twilight.
And one of their newest Twi-costars couldn't agree more...
"Kristen hasn't lost any of that stuff that makes her special," Lee Pace, who is playing Edward's vampire BFF Garrett in the Breaking Dawn flicks, tells me. "People say it's quirky, but I think it is authentic.
"She doesn't march down these red carpets like a show monster," the former Pushing Daisies star continued. "You see these girls and they're all just like, 'I'm living the fantasy. I'm wearing $10,000 worth of clothes and jewelry.' Kristen's just not like that. Kristen is just her."
The same for Mr. Pattinson. "The thing about him that is so charming is what you see is what you get," Pace said. "He is as charming and humble and handsome as he presents himself. Totally what you see is what you get with him."
Pace also said that director Bill Condon's take on the movies is a bit more "dark" than the previous three movies. "Bill Condon is cooling up these movies," he said. "I hope that doesn't get me in trouble with anyone, but he's cool...He really is killing it with this one. He's making it cool. Bill is finding that stuff and letting it be as shocking as it can be, but stylish, too."
Pace returns to filming Breaking Dawn this week after taking a three-week vacation to India. "I wear bright red contacts," he said. "I feel so plain and boring when I take them out."

Twitter time with Chris Weitz - Part 3
Breakdown scene with Kristen. Cold, tough night.
Bellla saying I love you to Edward. Then the studio got me to replace it, then R and K talked me back into it.
I'm matchmaker to the stars?
YES especially in 1 day. scuba gear, safety, green screen underwater, wtaer alteruing depth of field and lens quality, then cg fixes..
EdwardsLove82@chrisweitz uh oh ...always ignore the Robsten questions!! ... that's going to blow up twitter for sure haha :)
Uh.. Lessee... Rob likes sushi?
vegetarianvamp_ @chrisweitz He likes sushi? Really? Huh.
Okay okay desperately trying to retain followers... Um... ROB is an ANDROID! You heard it here first. ROB-OT. Don;t you SEEE??
LeMuffinMama @chrisweitz Do you feel good about the direction of NM and whether or not your specific style will be received well by fans?
Nice avatar. Yes, I feel good, it was a clasic widescreen romance, Javier Aguirresarobe (DP) is a genius
MsChopsy @chrisweitz Does it haunt u when peeps pick up on things like Edward's eyes being the wrong colour in Voltura or can u let it go and move on.
I think of Mandela's 21 years in jail and move on.
TwiSingapore@chrisweitz We're hoping to see all 4 directors of the Twilight Saga series receive a standing ovation from fans all over the world someday.
It is a noble dream.
@AngelAtTwilight: @chrisweitz We know the scene was filmed, we saw stills of it. Just wondering where did it go and why it wasn't in an outtake at least?
chrisweitz Basically, it was cut for narrative smoothness. I don't control the DVD extras! :(
chrisweitzfan@chrisweitz Okay. No lying. Who's better looking up close. Rob or Taylor?
On the molecular level they are almost identical. Love the avatar.
vitoriabet@chrisweitz if you were a Volturi would you book a battle without fighting -like in the last book- ?
Mmmmmm....no. Cf. Chekhov: if a gun is brought on stage, it must be fired. The Volturi should always lay smack downs.
FC_RTPattinson@chrisweitz WHAT YOU THOUGHT OF THE PERFORMANCE OF ROBERT PATTINSON?
HE WAS QUIETER THAN THIS
misskrista18@chrisweitz what were your thoughts when Peter gave you the card on the New Moon set?
Hello! Btw P Fac gave me a lovely card from all the Cullens welcoming me, saying take care of the, plus I got a free massage.
bubbly_i_am@chrisweitz Considering there were a lot of girls on set...where there any PMS problems? :) Any drama between hormonal women haha?
Nope. Wolf pack very catty though ;)
@chrisweitz SO in every Twilight movie the thing that everyone has got wrong is that they really can't fight Edward.. if you follow the book he is always able to hear what their next move is gonna be so they never get near him.. but in the 3 movies theres a fight with edward and people almost killing him... were u aawere of that stuff while filming and just changed it cause it works better that way for the movies?
Yes. "action sequences" for the boys.
tinkrbe1l3@chrisweitz OH MY GOSH! cant believe i havent asked you this. What happened to the RKT commentary on NM??? not that u werent exciting....
They were veeeeeeery tired, long press tour. I hadn't gone out as late the night before rec
ShinyVolvoLove@chrisweitz What's you opinion on sparkly glitter dicks?
I never knew they existed. I assume you are imagining a vampire phallus? Well -- I.... what can I say.
tinkrbe1l3 @chrisweitz Fact: Rob said he loves hobnobs so those are better automatically ;)
Rob and I will talk.
RobsessedBex@chrisweitz did you ever touch Rob's hair?
Did I ever NOT touch his hair? He told me to stop but I wouldn't. Why do you think I didn't direct Eclipse?
emilytaylor_3@chrisweitz is robert pattinson really as hot in real person ?
He's actually physically repugnant. It's something about the camera. Weird.
RobMozDean@chrisweitz won't respond to my Rob, Morrissey & James Dean question :( ~heaven knows I'm miserable now~
What unites them is a quiff. Never met Mr.Dean. met Mr. Morrissey and ADORE him.
Video, caps & info on Rob and Kristen out in Vancouver Saturday night
Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart jetted off to Spain – well, a little piece of Spain amid the wintry gloom of Vancouver – for date night on Saturday.
The couple, who are filming the Twilight movie Breaking Dawn in town, were spotted enjoying a late dinner at one of Pattinson's favorite small restaurants, the Spanish tapas bar La Bodega, downtown on Howe Street.
The pair, who were joined by costar Kellan Lutz, as well as Stewart's bodyguard and his date and three other friends, sat at a large table in the loft of the restaurant, tucked away in a corner.
After sharing a number of plates of tapas, they left around midnight and strolled back to their hotel about three blocks away – with Pattinson and Stewart splitting off into one small group, and Lutz in another.
Pattinson and Stewart were both decked out almost all in black, clearly trying to keep a low profile – but were in high spirits and being warmly affectionate with one another, swinging their hands back and forth and laughing.
Filming is expected to continue in Vancouver until mid-April.

Peter Facinelli talks Breaking Dawn and other Twilight scenes
"Did anyone know that Peter laid on top of Kristen during the audition and shouted at Rob to get the venom out? Peter thought it would look weird if anyone walked in on that scene. Lol"
"Peter said if he wad younger he would have loved to play Edward. It was Peter's idea to drop Edward during the eclipse fight training. He thought Csrlisle should one up edward cause he's older."
"Peter says the family scenes are like one big party. And loves those scenes in every twilight movie."
About Breaking Dawn
"Peter has filmed one day in Vancouver fot breaking dawn and it was cold and rainy.
Peter says bill condon is enjoyable and very nice. Very communicative and receptive to ideas but hasnt seen any finished product. Breaking Dawn script is Peter's fav script. He says follows the book but has variations that we will like.Peter thinks it is more exciting because we wouldnt want to see 2 hours of Bella on the couch. Peter says he likes surprises cause everyone already knows the books and it adds some excitement for fans."
