Site update!
By Twilight_News | January 25, 2009
We’ve finished Bella’s bio and made it current with Breaking Dawn. She will continue to be listed under Bella Swan even though her married last name has changed. We figure that since she was Bella Swan for three books and two chapters that she can stay Bella Swan on the character list.
We also have another chapter update for you tonight. The wonderful Malaz stepped in and provided us with the summary of Chapter Five: Isle Esme as well as the discussion questions that can be found on the message board.

By Twilight_News | January 24, 2009
Chris Weitz took a recent trip to Kalama High School in Oregon to see if it might be used for New Moon. Kalama was used for several Twilight scenes such as the parking lot crash, the volleyball game, and their weight room was transformed into Bella’s hospital room. You can see a bunch of Kalama and later Madison HS in the candid photos taken last year by one of the film’s films extras, Kiz.

Dakota Fanning In Her Own Words
By Twilight_News | January 24, 2009
Access Hollywod has a quote from Dakota:
“I don’t think they’ll have to put a lot of makeup on me,” she joked. “I’m pretty white already.”
A couple of months back, MTV asked Dakota Fanning what she thought about the Twilight craze.
Dakota had experienced a bit of the Twilight craze first hand because she was at Comic Con in July 2008 in connection with her upcoming film Push. She actually had to be escorted in past the screaming Twilight fans because a major traffic snarl had her late for her scheduled appearance. The fans definitely made an impression.
Entertainment Tonight actually talked directly to Dakota in an exclusive:
"Dakota tells ET that although contracts haven’t been signed, she does hope to join the cast of ‘New Moon.’ She tells us she’s a big fan of the movie ‘Twilight’ and would really like to play a vampire, namely the sadistic bloodsucker Jane."
IESB has also spoken with Dakota who is confirming that she is in talks for New Moon.
Granted, it doesn’t seem like the ink is dry on the contracts, but in general stars don’t talk about an upcoming project unless they are really interested in doing it, and it’s almost a done deal. It’s considered bad form otherwise.

Convention News
By Twilight_News | January 23, 2009
There’s been a change of actors appearing at the Chicago Convention. Justin Chon is making an appearance while Kellan Lutz drops out. Keep in mind this is typical at most cons because actors’ schedules change. ( Jackson Rathbone recently had to cancel an appearance with his band due to an episode of Criminal Minds that he picked up.) Make sure when you are signing up for a multi-day con there are other activities besides actor appearances, because those appearances are always subject to change. Alphie and Pel will be at this con doing several panel discussions.
Creation Entertainment, that currently has the San Fransisco convention planned, is looking to do events in a variety of other cities. They have several events planned for their San Fransisco con including special private meals with the actors. Check out their new cities here including Los Angeles, Parsippany, New Jersey, and Minneapolis.
The Summer school in Forks Convention has John Granger added to the speakers list. They have also added a promotion where fans can win an IPOD Nano by signing up. Check out their site
