Dueling Naked Chests…
Call it battle of the dueling naked chests!
When New Moon debuts Nov. 20, the debates about Team Edward and Team Jacob will only intensify. After all, this is the installment in the saga where Jacob gets to stretch his muscles as a friend, as a potential love interest and as a supernatural creature himself with 25 extra pounds of muscle!
But not so fast. Don’t rule out the vampire who owns Bella’s heart. Because Rob Pattinson looks like he might have hit the gym too – gotta keep up with the wolves after all – in this photo montage shot by paparazzi in Italy. The scene is when Edward is about to reveal himself to the Volturi by taking his shirt all the way off in the sun.
So the question now is which side do you fall on in the battle of the dueling chests now that you’ve seen the New Moon trailer showing off Jacob’s build and this photo sequence with Edward?
The Volturi are Coming, the Volturi Are Coming
Watch out, Vancouver. The Canadian town known for being home to virtually every single film and TV production under the sun is hosting the Volturi now. The actors playing “vampire royalty” – ha, I scoff at that term – are ready to shoot their interior scenes, according to Hello Magazine. For those of you just getting to know the characters in Stephenie Meyer’s second book in the series, the Volturi are kind of like the mafia of the vampire world. They lay down the law, they uphold the law, they break the law. You know what I mean – they’re in charge and you don’t want to cross them.
Supposedly.
Because let me just use this opportunity to say something that has always struck me as a little odd about the Volturi. We don’t know how they’d really fare in a fight. Sure, they have Jane, played by Dakota Fanning in New Moon, who can inflict bone-crunching pain with her mind. But why are other vamps so scared of the Volturi? Because the coven has been around, skin getting all withery and immortal eyes all glassy, for 3,000 years? Hmm…I’m not convinced the Volturi are really so tough. We all know they never really put up a fight.
What do you think?

Once a Wolf, Now a Vampire: Michael Sheen Cast as Volturi
First we wanted to know if Taylor Lautner was big enough to be a wolf. Now, an actor best known for playing a wolf is going to play the wolf’s mortal enemy — a bloodsucker. “Underworld’s” Michael Sheen has been cast as one of the Volturi Vampires in Twilight’s sequel “New Moon,” according to the LA Times.
In New Moon, he’ll play Aro, the Volturi leader who can read your mind, including any thought you ever had in your whole life, just by touching you with his hand.
Of course he also played Tony Blair in “The Queen” too.
Michael Sheen — wolf, vampire or world leader? Which role suits him best?
