Ashley Greene on Skateland, The Twilight Saga directors & more
Posted on 07. Apr, 2010 by Amanda31 in News
IESB talked with Ashley last week about her film Skateland, working with different directors on New Moon and Eclipse, and her interest in doing a comedy, musical or action film.
Q: For The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, did David Slade give you a syllabus or mission statement, the way that Chris Weitz did for The Twilight Saga: New Moon?
Ashley: No, he definitely didn’t give us that. But, each of the cast did sit down and have hour-long, sit-down conversations with him, probably two or three times, going over the whole script and us highlighting anything that we wanted to talk about. He went about it a different way, but he was also very open about forming some type of collaboration. The directors have their own vision. They don’t want to change our characters, but their vision may be a little different. Obviously, David Slade has a little darker spin on it than Chris Weitz may have had, so we had to find a way to mold them together.
Q: Have you read the new novella that Stephenie Meyer has coming out?
Ashley: Are you talking about the fifth book (Midnight Sun), that didn’t come out? I read some of it, probably during Twilight, before that whole thing happened and it got out.
Q: Not that book, but the novella that she’s coming out with, The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner, before the release of Eclipse?
Ashley: No, that I haven’t read.
