Back in 2009, when Taylor Swift only had one Grammy for Album of the Year, she really wanted to join the "Twilight" franchise — but the team behind the vampire saga apparently turned her down. Why? She was simply too famous, even then.
Ashley Greene — who plays Alice Cullen in the films — recently hosted Chris Weitz, director of "The Twilight Saga: New Moon," on her podcast "The Twilight Effect," and Weitz revealed that he had to fend off requests for Swift to appear in the film (per Entertainment Weekly). "Taylor Swift and I had the same agent at the time, and he said, 'Taylor would like to be in this movie — not because of you, but she's a Twi-hard,'" Weitz told Greene.
The director continued and said that because Swift was just a huge "Twilight" fan, she simply wanted to be present on set and appear in the back of a...

Taylor Lautner is known to many fans as the wolf boy Jacob Black from the Twilight Saga. It was a breakout role for Lautner into more mature films in Hollywood, despite the franchise garnering more critics than fans in later years. However, before his time as a werewolf, Lautner was Sharkboy in the superhero movie, The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl in 3-D.

Lautner was the first to be cast in the role in Robert Rodriguez’s children’s movie. The film received negative reviews upon release, with criticism targeted at the 3-D effects. However, many loved the film as kids and it went on to gain a cult following. But looking back, fans could see why critics weren’t happy with the film.

Recently, we explored the topic of superhero physiques, discussing how actors portraying these characters must maintain impressive bodies, often setting a standard for physical appearance, whether they like it or not. While superhero films are a prime example, many actors bulk up for various roles across genres.
Although some fans have expressed concerns about these standards, the majority of our readers seemed to disagree, believing these expectations are not harmful. At the time, we focused on actors like Hugh Jackman and Henry Cavill.
In this report, however, we’ll present the other side of the story, this time from the actors themselves. We’ve gathered several statements where they acknowledge that achieving such physiques can be a dangerous practice.
First up is Hugh Jackman, who shared this insight about his physique: “70% is diet, only 30% is training.” During his appearance on Stephen Colbert’s show, he further emphasized, advising fans with...

Not so long ago, we have discussed the issue of superhero physiques and how the actors portraying these characters also have to present such incredible bodies, and whether they like it or not, they are setting a standard with such appearances. Of course, superhero movies aren’t the only ones, as actors often bulk up for other roles as well.
And while some fans have voiced their concerns about this, most of our readers – as we could follow – did not agree with these concerns and they think that such standards are fine and not dangerous at all. At the time, we were talking about Hugh Jackman and Henry Cavill.

Rapper Kanye West provided quite the entry into pop culture history when he stepped onto the stage of the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards to interrupt pop star Taylor Swift's acceptance speech for Best Female Video. In the infamous moment, West spoke into the microphone with Swift still on stage next to him, "Yo, Taylor, I'm really happy for you, I'mma let you finish, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time! One of the best videos of all time!" It sparked outrage and memes, and it wouldn't even be the most ludicrous or rude thing West would do in his career. However, perhaps we shouldn't have been surprised -- because "Saturday Night Live" saw this coming nearly two years before the incident.

The upcoming Twilight reboot could happen with Robert Pattinson reprising his role as Edward, if the producers want it.
The last Twilight film was released in 2012, and for 10 long years, fans have been eager to return to the world of glittering vampires by any means necessary.
Of course, the ideal scenario would be if the original cast – which includes Robert, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner – were attached in some way.
Given that their supernatural characters are ageless, that seemed like a pipe dream.
But some new news about the future of the franchise has given fans hope, especially considering how eager the Og stars are to return to Forks!

Midnight Sun, a Twilight novel by Stephanie Meyer, is heading to the small screen at Netflix – in animated series form.
There was a time in the early 2010s when Twilight was just about the biggest film franchise around.
It comprises five films – 2008’s Twilight, directed by Catherine Hardwicke, 2009’s New Moon, directed by Chris Weitz, 2010’s Eclipse, directed by David Slade, and the two part finale Breaking Dawn, directed by Bill Condon and released in 2011 and 2012. Their success was such that two parody films were also released in quick succession, the much maligned Vampire’s Suck and Breaking Wind.
The films followed Kristen Stewart’s Bella Swan as she becomes romantically involved with vampire Edward Cullen, played by Robert Pattinson, and werewolf Jacob Black, played by Taylor Lautner. Which all leads to a battle with vampire coven The Volturi.
Adapted by future Jessica Jones creator Melissa Rosenberg, the large ensemble cast also included Billy Burke,...

“Midnight Sun,” the new animated “Twilight” series based on Stephenie Meyer’s novel of the same name, has landed at Netflix.
The streamer has granted a straight-to-series order for the animated show, which has officially begun development, Netflix announced Wednesday. The project, which hails from Lionsgate Television, is described as a “retelling of ‘Twilight’ from the perspective of Edward Cullen.”
The news comes months after Lionsgate vice chairman Michael Burns confirmed the company would be shopping around the series during a Morgan Stanley media conference in March, saying, “I think there’ll be a lot of interest in that.”
The series was first reported to be in development at Lionsgate TV in April 2023, with Meyer’s involvement expected.
Meyer will executive produce alongside Meghan Hibbett for Fickle Fish Films, while additional EPs include Wyck Godfrey and Marty Bowen for Temple Hill Entertainment and Erik Feig and Samie Kim Falvey for Picturestart.

This week’s episode of The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast found the former Saturday Night Live performers discussing the digital short “Iran So Far,” which involved Andy Samberg crooning about then-Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad — with some help from Maroon 5’s Adam Levine and an Aphex Twin sample that the show reportedly didn’t secure the rights to before air time. “It cost NBC, I think, $160,000,” Jorma Taccone confessed during the podcast.
Much of their discussion was devoted to the episode’s guests: host LeBron James and musical guest Ye (“Kanye West” back then). While Meyers called LeBron a “full delight” and a “genuine, fantastic human being to spend time with,” everyone’s feelings around Kanye were a tad more complicated.
Akiva Schaffer recalled that he and Meyers wrote a sketch about Kanye being a “poor loser” at award shows and “speaking out on behalf of others.” Keep in mind,...

When it comes to raking in the big bucks, Robert Pattinson’s net worth in 2024 is as stratospheric as his famously tousled hair ever could be. The British heartthrob made his mark in the Harry Potter film series and then took over the world by playing Edward Cullen in The Twilight Saga.
His foray into offbeat roles—a term he humorously embraces—has paid off handsomely, leading to his engagements in landmark films like Christopher Nolan’s mind-bending Tenet and donning the cape as Bruce Wayne in Matt Reeves’ The Batman. From dating tabloid darling Kristen Stewart—a relationship that spectacularly fizzled out—to tackling one spine-tingling role after another, Pattinson has climbed the ladder of success.

Kristen Stewart landed one of Hollywood’s biggest parts in recent memory when she was cast as Bella Swan in Twilight, but she faced stiff competition.

Now, she’s gearing up to return to the world of vampire dramas alongside Oscar Isaac in a thriller called Flesh of the Gods.
The new project is eagerly anticipated, but Twilight will always be the role that turned Kristen into a household name.
She’s so closely related to the part. However, like any other role in Hollywood, there was stiff competition with multiple stars in the running to play Bella.

When Robert Pattinson first sank his teeth into the role of Edward Cullen in Twilight, the world couldn’t get enough of him. Of course, we can’t blame them—who wouldn’t be swayed by a sparkly vampire who ended up winning over Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart)?
The acclaimed franchise didn’t just shoot Pattinson and his then-girlfriend Kristen Stewart to Hollywood stardom; it also cooked up the ‘Robsten’ phenomenon, serving up endless laughs and drama. Their off-screen drama was arguably as intense as their on-screen chemistry.

But while fans were busy swooning, Pattinson himself was far from starry-eyed about the cultural juggernaut. Since the franchise’s debut in 2008, the actor has been anything but a cheerleader for his vampiric alter ego, consistently expressing his distaste for both the role and the plotlines derived from Stephenie Meyer’s novels.

With its glittering vampires, werewolves and dramatic plot, Twilight has captivated fans for years. That’s thanks in large part to it’s talented (and quite wealthy) cast.
Based on author Stephenie Meyer‘s novels, the franchise helped to lay the groundwork for a new generation of fantasy blockbusters. It also set up its stars for a successful run in Hollywood.
Of course, some of the most recognizable stars from the franchise are the three main leads – Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner. However, the rest of the Cullen family and several other stars from the franchise have also enjoyed successful careers in Hollywood.
We decided to check out what sort of fortunes the stars have amassed, and you might be surprised by where some of the actors fall on the list. The top earner beats the closest competition by $20 million!

Taylor Lautner star lit up when he was cast as Jacob Black in the Twilight franchise. However, you might be shocked to learn that he actually had to fight for the part twice.
If you forgot, the 32-year-old actor played the young werewolf alongside Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson in 2008′s Twilight.
However, there were concerns that he wouldn’t be able to bring the character to life in 2009′s sequel New Moon since Jacob went through a massive body transformation and put on a significant amount of muscle and height after turning into a werewolf.
As a result, Taylor had to hit the gym and go through his own body transformation to keep the role. He reflected on almost being recast in a recent interview, crediting Kristen for helping him stay on with the franchise.
We were curious about who else could have brought Jacob to life and did some digging.

When the Twilight saga hit theaters with its first film in 2008, the whole world had already been carried away by the story and especially the characters. The vampire Edward Cullen, in particular, was one of the biggest crushes at the time, and not just among fans, but even among celebrities. Jennifer Lawrence was one of them.

Aaron Carter’s twin sister, Angel Carter, recently opened up about her brother’s struggles and how she prepared for his death years before it happened.
Angel stopped by Taylor Lautner and wife Taylor Dome’s podcast The Squeeze, where she got candid about Aaron’s death in 2022 and the family dynamics that likely played a part in it. Of the five Carter siblings, Angel and Backstreet Boys’ Nick Carter are the only ones who are still alive.

The news shouldn’t be surprising because Ariana was announced as the new Love Island USA host in March.
Ariana made a few guest appearances on the show during Season 5, so the transition from Sarah to the Vanerpump Rules star made sense.
What isn’t making sense to some Love Island USA fans is why Sarah isn’t the host of the reality TV show anymore.

The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl is one of those movies that’s so bad it’s good, holding a special place in the hearts of 2000s kids despite being trashed by critics at the time. Its comeback story is nothing short of miraculous. Like many masterpieces, it didn’t initially win over audiences, with its disappointing box office performance and a measly 19% score on Rotten Tomatoes.

Kristen Stewart is gearing up to star in another vampire project, but for us we’ll always remember her as Bella Swan from Twilight.
It’s been more than a decade since the 34-year-old star last shared the screen with the likes of Taylor Lautner and Robert Pattinson in the massively popular young adult series. Now, she’s gearing up to return to the world alongside Oscar Isaac in a new thriller called Flesh of the Gods.
The new project is shaping up to be a hit, but Twilight will always be the role that turned Kristen into a household name.
She’s so closely related to the part at this point in her career. However, like any other role in Hollywood, there was stiff competition with multiple stars in the running to play Bella.
Twilight was already a successful book series by the time that the first movie was being made.

The Twilight film franchise left behind a legacy that still lives on today, and it introduced us to a talented (and very wealthy) cast of stars.
Based on author Stephenie Meyer‘s novels, the franchise helped to lay the groundwork for a new generation of teen fantasy blockbusters. It also set up its stars for a successful run in Hollywood.
Of course, some of the most recognizable stars from the franchise are the three main leads – Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner. However, the rest of the Cullen family and several other stars from the franchise have also enjoyed successful careers in Hollywood.
The franchise is on our minds again thanks to a recent cast reunion and a prominent star welcoming their first child. We decided to check out what sort of fortunes the stars have amassed, and you might be surprised by where some of the actors fall on the list.

Loving Adam Sandler means making your peace with the actor's wildly inconsistent output. It's not like The Sandman has ever been a critical darling; even during his rise to superstardom in the '90s, "Happy Gilmore" and "The Wedding Singer" were the only movies of his that you could reasonably call well-reviewed (and that's coming from an ardent "Billy Madison" defender). But the films that he's churned out under his Happy Madison Productions, which was founded in 1999, have been all over the place quality-wise. Even most die-hard Sandlites probably wouldn't go to the mattresses over stinkers like "Jack and Jill" and "Grown Ups 2."
That's only become doubly true since Sandler entered his alliance with Netflix in the 2010s. Sometimes, you end up with little more than "content" for viewers to stream and immediately forget, but you can also get remarkably good stuff like "The Meyerowitz Stories (New and Selected...

You might have watched them hundreds of time, but we bet that there are still secrets you are not aware of. After all, all this time later we are still learning new secrets about the franchise.
For instance, did you know that a very famous Harry Potter star was in the running for a role? A High School Musical actor also auditioned for a popular part. In fact, one popular actress was in the running to play three different parts and never got cast.
Several actresses had to wear wigs, a key role was almost recast after the first...

While Kristen Stewart has had her moments in indie movies as well as blockbusters, the actress revealed that she will “likely never” star in a Marvel film unless one specific person asked her.
The Love Lies Bleeding star said on a recent episode of the Not Skinny but Not Fat podcast that making a superhero movie “sounds like a fucking nightmare, actually.”
When host Amanda Hirsch told Stewart that she could see her playing Mary Jane “Mj” Watson from the Spider-Man comic, the actress clarified that she does “like big movies because I like people to watch them when I’m in them.”
But she added that the “system would have to change. You would have to put so much money and so much trust into one person…and it doesn’t happen. And so therefore what ends up happening is this algorithmic, weird experience where you can’t feel personal at all about it.

Joey King has nothing against method acting – it’s just not for her.
Especially for projects like her latest, the Holocaust series “We Were the Lucky Ones.”
Based on Georgia Hunter’s best-selling novel of her family’s fight to survive the Holocaust, Logan Lerman stars as Hunter’s grandfather Addy alongside King as his younger sister Halina. Rounding out the cast are Sam Woolf, Robin Weigart, Lior Ashkenazi, Hadas Yaron, Amit Rahav and Eva Feiler.
“I think anyone who is a method actor is truly so brave and amazing, but I’m personally not a method actor,” King tells me on this week’s episode of the “Just for Variety” podcast. “And when shooting a show like this, I just don’t know how I could be because having those moments of release in between setups and in between takes with your friends [is needed].”
