“You’ve got a little bit of a love triangle going on in this one,” Facinelli said earlier this week at the premiere of his new Showtime series, Nurse Jackie. “You’ve got werewolves, you’ve got vampires, CGI. Stir it up all together, you’ve got New Moon.”

Facinelli also revealed to me at the MTV Movie Awards that New Moon director Chris Weitz seems to be really gettin’ into the flick.

“I always tell him, ‘You remind me of Dr. Cullen,’ because he’s very thoughtful and always thinking and always calming,” he said. “If there’s any chaos going on, you can look to him and it’s all calm, so he really is Dr. Carlisle Cullen.”

Peter Facinelli: “Well, nothing’s shot in order but we’ve shot the…let’s see…the birthday scene. We’ve shot that. And we’ve the voting scene. I’m not going to tell you what we all voted, but read the book. What else did we shoot? I shot stitching up Bella which was a lovely little scene. I pretty much mostly almost finished. I have a couple other shots to do in May and then we’re done.”

I think we’re… There’s always going to be creative interpretations of stuff. But as far as adding stuff, there’s so much in it already, it’s hard to add. You have a 500 page book that you’ve got to squeeze down to two hours.”
