Ashley Greene talks Alice Cullen and team Jacob vs. team Edward

This is an exciting time to be a fan of the Twilight Saga. One of the stars of the upcoming film, 'New Moon,' Ashley Greene - in a new interview with Twilight-Review, discusses her role as Alice Cullen, her favorite scenes, and if she is team Jacob or team Edward.

The following is an excerpt from the interview that she did while taking a break from filming scenes for 'Eclipse':

TSR.com: What was your first impression of Twilight when you auditioned?

AG: I never thought is would be something as big, as huge at it is. Twilight is like WOW. I thought it was going to be great and everything, I thought it was going to be something like Scary Movie-famous, but I never thought it was going to be this big, like… don’t know… Harry Potter-famous. Transformers… don’t know. I don’t know if you get my idea, but is awesome being part of something like Twilight and the Saga.

TSR.com: What’s your favorite book in the series?

AG: I’m between New Moon and Eclipse. But I love them all.

TSR.com: Are you Team Edward or team Jacob?

AG: Ughhhh… harsh. I really really adore Rob and Edward’s awesome, but I’m Team Jacob. Is just… You gotta love Taylor, he plays an amazing Jacob, so… my heart belongs to him. Hahaha!

TSR.com: Once you had the role of Alice Cullen, how did you prepare for the role?

AG: I read the book, read my script and talked to Stephenie. She helped me to create the current Alice.

TSR.com: In New Moon Alice plays a larger than in Twilight and a new style. Are you happy with how Alice is evolving in the saga?

AG: Of course! That’s why I like NM and Eclipse more than Twilight and BD! Hahahaha! Kidding. Is awesome, but that also means I have more lines to learn! But I love it, I love my job so, everything’s great.

TSR.com: Are there any traits or similarities between yourself and Alice?

AG: We’re both tiny. Hahaha! Well, Alice’s one happy kid, and I’m a happy person too. I’m like smiling all the time and I really don’t like to see people sad so, I make them laugh and everything. I’m really into fashion, but Alice kick my butt x10 times. She’s a fashionista and I love it. I love her fashion sense and, I want her closet!

TSR.com: Do you think you can relate to Alice? What do you admire most about Alice? Where are you most different?

AG: We really look alike. She’s a loyal girl and she loves her family and friends and I’m like that. I would do everything for them. Now… different… hmmm. She has a boyfriend, I don’t. Hahahaha!

Kristen Stewart Rescues Robert Pattinson In New ‘New Moon’ Photo

Newmoonmovie.org posted a couple of new “Twilight Saga : New Moon” photos from the “New Moon” Illustrated Companion. This one (above) features Twilight,New Moon,and Eclipse movie stars, Ashley Greene,Kristen Stewart,and Robert Pattinson.

This picture is a still from the scene where Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) has rushed back to Italy with Alice Cullen (Ashley Greene) to stop Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) from killing himself because he thinks Bella is dead. She’s seen walking with him,here,shortly after she stopped him.

“New Moon” has a lot of excitement and drama which includes : great fight scenes with the Volturi clan,the introduction of Dakota Fanning as vampire Jane,Bella Swan being rescued by Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner),and the introduction of the wolf pack. I’m definitely looking forward to seeing it.

The cast are currently in Vancouver,Canada at the moment,filming “Twilight Saga : Eclipse,” which is the third installment of the “Twilight Saga” movie series.

The new and improved look for Ashley Greene as Alice Cullen from 'Twilight' to 'New Moon'

 

Of course, Twilight star Ashley Greene is incredibly gorgeous. The twenty-two year old actress could easily traipse around town in a paper sack and still be a thing of significant beauty.
Her character, Alice Cullen, is quite the same, according to the books. Graceful, sweet, beautiful, and charming, Alice is a character that embodies the Shakespearian notion of life as a stage.
Another important feature about Alice Cullen is the fact that she has an impeccable sense of style and glamour. Throughout the novels, her interest in fashion becomes more and more explored, and we get to know Alice Cullen as the fashionista that she is by the time Breaking Dawn rolls around.
In Stephenie Meyer's original Chapter 20 for Twilight entitled "Flight," an outtaken sequence involving Alice and Bella would have revealed, early on, that aspect of her character. Said Meyer about the deletion, "This chapter slowed down the page of the "hunt" part of the story, but I feel like I cut out a lot of Alice's personality when I sacrificed it."
In later books, to be sure, that part of her personality was clearly revealed, even to the extent of Edward explaining that his entire family's wardrobe is compliments of Alice's handiwork.
In Twilight, though, Alice's style might've been a little underplayed. The Twilight Saga: New Moon, on the other hand, seems to be vamping up that presentation.

This photograph, thanks to Twilighters Anonymous and the Lion Lamb Community, shows a much more fashionable Ashley Greene as Alice Cullen.
Trimmed with all of the accessories and extras known to be regarded by Greene's character, it is clear from this photo that the spotlight on Alice's clothing prowess is coinciding nicely with the development of that factor in the book series.


OMG! Ashley Green is so damn gorgeous! And her looks as Alice is indeed better here in New Moon photo than Twilight!

Ashley Greene hits the gym for Eclipse!

Twilight star Ashley Greene has been hitting the gym recently to prepare for the grueling fight sequences in Twi sequel Eclipse, which will begin production Aug. 17 through Oct. 31 in Vancouver.
Greene, 22, plays the pixie-ish vampire Alice Cullen in Twilight and its sequels New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn, which are being filmed back-to-back. Because the sequels are more action-oriented than the original film, several members of the ensemble cast have been feverishly working out for their roles.
Ashley told RadarOnline that she has been working out with a personal trainer, doing yoga, kayaking and lots of cardio.
"I usually do Pilates," she said. "But I worked with an amazing trainer who really catered my workouts to what I like to do. He'd say, 'you like to go kayaking? Let's go kayaking."

Similarly, Greene's co-star, Taylor Lautner, has also had to step up his workouts to play the hulking shape-shifting werewolf Jacob Black in the Twilight sequels. Lautner, 17, has gained 30 lbs. of muscle over the past few months by working out constantly and eating around the clock.
The unexpected mainstream popularity of the Twilight franchise will keep its young cast busy (and buff!) until at least 2010. Production on New Moon has just wrapped, and its sequel, Eclipse, is set to begin shooting soon. After that, Breaking Dawn, the fourth and final installment in the best-selling Twilight book series, will begin shooting.

All the Twilight sequels are scheduled to be released back-to-back, with New Moon slated for release in November 2009; Eclipse set for June 2010 and Breaking Dawn the following fall.

Robert Pattinson and the Cast of Twilight Didn't Play in Italy

While filming New Moon in Italy, the Twilight stars didn't get to explore and play in the beautiful country. Was it Robert Pattinson's fault?

There's a lot to see in Italy, but Robert Pattinson, Ashley Greene, Kristen Stewart, and the rest of the Twlight cast didn't really get to enjoy it while filming New Moon. According to Ashley Greene, "We literally all had two bodyguards and drivers, and we couldn't walk and had to be driven around the set. It was because there were thousands of girls that came in from everywhere in the world to see (Robert Pattinson)."

So it's Robert Pattinson's fault for being so good looking, girls were coming from everywhere to see him. The fans would even sleep outside the gates just waiting for a glimpse of Robert and the cast. While the cast was filming the first Twilight movie, they were able to do as they pleased in Vancouver because the world wasn't yet obsessed with them.

Kellan Lutz confirms this and says, "Every second of Rob's life is watched now," while Cam Gigandet says, "(His fame) is always growing, but Rob is still Rob - which is a good thing."

We can't imagine being in Italy and not even getting to see the sites, but it sounds like Robert Pattinson was a tourist attraction himself!
