Calgary Herald Interviews Cameron Bright
Calgary Herald posted this:
It's all roses, electric sunshine and eye-popping paydays at the beginning. But growing up can be a particularly challenging process for those statistically high-risk human beings called "child actors."
Once the dimples turn to pimples, one's entire relationship to the universe reverses polarity, leaving some pint-sized thespians in a state of perpetual existential angst.
Cameron Bright is 17, which means he's currently floating above the abyss, but the Victoria native who made significant waves with his bathtub scene opposite Nicole Kidman in Birth, and donned amber contacts as vampire aristocracy in New Moon, is decidedly grounded.
"I'm at home on Vancouver Island, doing what any other 17-year-old kid would be doing: hanging out with friends, watching TV, going out. . . . I'm no different than anyone else my age."
Bright says the only thing that really sets him apart from his peers is his job, and the fact he doesn't attend a bricks-and-mortar high school.
"I guess I could look at my life and think I don't have to go to high school. Technically, I could drop out. But I don't see school as a backup plan. . . . It's not like I like high school or anything. I'm normal that way. It's just that I don't want to be a high-school dropout."
Bright says if he continues with his education after graduation, and he has every faith he will, he'll pursue auto mechanics.
"I don't want to pay someone else to fix my Nissan," he says. "Besides, it would be nice to work with something that doesn't talk back."
As a member of the Twilight saga cast, and its pack of high-profile post-pubescent talent, Bright's been able to bear witness to what's become a pop-culture phenomenon.
"I have to say, it was kind of funny to be working on New Moon and heading out to set, listening to the The Beat, and hearing (local Vancouver DJ) Nira Aurora talk about trying to get on (the set). It was hilarious," he says.
"In the end, it was just another set. . . . It's like a clock. It moves forward, and if someone shows up and having a bad day, everyone else is probably going to have a bad day, too."
Bright says New Moon, which hits DVD and Blu-ray this week, was a project like any other. As a 10-year veteran, Bright says just because the job came with an entire belief system and a galaxy of ravenous girl fans, it didn't change the actual task at hand: acting.
"Look, I'm not a vampire, but I can be one. Every time I do a role, it's me making myself an interesting person and pretending to be someone else. It doesn't really matter what the actual part is. . . . It's all the same process. You're making fun of yourself in a way," he says.
"But you're also gaining control. My whole school of acting has taken place on set. That's where you're working, and that's where you have to show up. I always show up ready," he says.
Though he's been in Birth, Thank You For Smoking, X-Men: The Last Stand, and the forthcoming Eclipse, Bright says he's never really been recognized and, fortunately, has skipped out on the mind-bending celebrity voyage.
"I think stardom comes along with the rest of it, but that hasn't really affected me. The only time it came close was when my mother went shopping, and the lady at the checkout said she had eyes like a kid she just saw in a movie. . . . That was kind of freaky," he says.
"But really, what's more important to me is that people recognize the work. I hope people are rating my talent, not my name."
At this particularly vulnerable stage of professional and physical metamorphosis, Bright says he's focused on the work and hopes the rest falls into place.
"I'm 17. I have half a beard. I fall in an age group where I'm going to be up for roles with 30-year-olds who read young. People are suddenly telling me to watch my back," he says.
"I'm not a child actor anymore. . . . It's going to be a challenge, but I'm not intimidated. I'm going to keep doing what I've always done: the best job I can."

Bryce Dallas Howard at Losers Premiere
Actress Bryce Dallas Howard arrives at "The Losers" Premiere at Grauman's Chinese Theatre on April 20, 2010 in Hollywood, California. She wore a red Doo.Ri Fall 2010 dress which complimented her light skintone and fiery hair.

Kellan Lutz in Hinder's new music video "Without You"
Thoughts?
For me, Hinder's music is a lot deeper than this video, not that a sexy but crappy boyfriend causing you to have bad grades isn't a serious problem but I feel like the actual lyrics to this song are a bit BIGGER than this.... either way, it's nice to see sexy Kellan Lutz rawr!
Upcoming Projects for Twilight Cast
I have often compiled upcoming projects for twilight cast (especially after New Moon it took a lot of time researching) but here is a complete list courtesy of Tracy who is an awesome gal.
---------------------
Tracy [wait a second, that's Tracy, Tracy!!!]over at Hollywood News has an extensive rundown of the upcoming projects of each cast member. They all have very full schedules, Taylor Lautner’s and Robert Pattinson’s alone are impressive.
Robert Pattinson
Breaking Dawn: Timing TBD.
Water for Elephants: Though this movie will film in 2010, it won’t hit theaters until 2011.
Bel Ami: If you’re an RPattz fan, you’ve undoubtedly seen recent pictures and videos of Rob dressed in lovely Parisian garb. Again, though filming will be completed in 2010, this film is set to debut in 2011.
Unbound Captives: Though Rob is attached to this film, with his current schedule, the studio likely won’t be able to start filming until 2011, particularly if/when Breaking Dawn gets greenlit. However, Rob Pattinson and Hugh Jackman is a whole lotta pretty for one film!
Taylor Lautner
Breaking Dawn: Timing TBD.
Abduction: This timing looks much more realistic – 2012 release.
Cancun: Not much to add to this film. It’s in development and Taylor Lautner is supposedly attached to the film, which is releasing in 2011.
Stretch Armstrong: Taylor Lautner will play Hasbros’ Superhero, Stretch Armstrong. There was a bit of controversy when Taylor took this part, as it came at the same time that he pulled out of playing the lead in Mattel’s “Max Steel”. This film is in pre-production and had a release date of 2012.
Kristen Stewart
K-11: Though this movie is receiving funding, it might not start filming this year between Kristen’s schedule and the loss of Nikki Reed (who is no longer a part of the picture).
Breaking Dawn: “Timing TBD”.
Despite only these two projects on the radar, we have no doubt that Kristen will have PLENTY of projects to keep her busy. In 2010 alone, she’s debuting “The Yellow Handkerchief” (technically debuted in 2008), “The Runaways”, “Welcome to the Rileys” and “Eclipse”.
Kellan Lutz
Meskada: Filming's completed and it should be out later this year.
A Nightmare on Elm Street: With a release date of April 30th, it will be interesting to see happy-go-lucky (but loves-a-good-fight) Emmett Cullen try to fight Freddy Kreuger. Although, since vampires never sleep, Emmett may have a leg up
Warrior (co-starring with Ashley Greene)
War of the Gods: Currently filming, this movie is set to release in 2011.
Love, Wedding, Marriage: Co-starring with Mandy Moore and currently filming, this movie is set to release in 2010.
Breaking Dawn: Timing TBD.
Death Games: Though not yet signed for this film, Kellan Lutz is in negotiations to star along side Samuel L. Jackson. Filming starts in May in Louisiana.
Anna Kendrick
Untitled Seth Rogen Project: Currently filming, Anna Kendrick plays a lead character where she’ll get to stretch her comedic chops. This film is set to release in 2010.
Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: If you try to narrow down the genre of this film, it doesn’t look possible – adventure, action, fantasy, etc. The film is set to release in August of this year.
Breaking Dawn: Timing TBD.
Dakota Fanning
Betsy and the Emperor: This film was originally set to star Dakota Fanning, then moved to Emily Watson, and is now supposedly back with Dakota Fanning. The film is in development, so stay tuned for details.
Breaking Dawn: Timing TBD.
Much like Kristen Stewart, though her schedule isn’t jam-packed with upcoming films, there is no doubt she is receiving so many scripts she doesn’t have time to go through them all.
Billy Burke
Fresh off his band’s new single, Billy is burning the candle at both ends! Where does he find the time?
Drive Angry: Starring Nicholas Cage, the film is set to release in 2011.
Highland Park: Starring Danny Glover, this film will release in 2010.
Luster: Playing the lead, this film will debut in 2010.
Ticket Out : Starring Ray Liota, this film is set to release in 2010.
Baby O: Starring Eric Roberts and Billy Burke, this film is also set to release in 2010.
Removal: As the star of the film, this movie should come out in 2010.
Breaking Dawn: Timing TBD.
Ashley Greene
Butter: There’s been a lot of press surrounding this film. Ashley stars with Hugh Jackman, Alicia Silverstone and Olivia Wilde in this 2012 film.
Breaking Dawn: Timing TBD.
Warrior: (Co-starring with Kellan Lutz).
The Apparition : This horror film casts Ashley Greene in the lead and is set to release this year.
Radio Free Albemuth : This film has already hit the festival circuit.
Skateland: Though this film has already hit the festival circuit, it doesn’t have mainstream distribution yet.
Jackson Rathbone
Truckstop : Rumored to be in this 2011 film, we won’t know if Jackson’s in it until he signs on the dotted line.
The Last Airbender: This is M. Night. Shyamalan’s latest effort. Need I say more? Go see it!
Girlfriend : In a starring role, Jackson will appear in this 2010 movie which is currently in post-production.
DaZe: Vol. Too (sic) – NonSeNse: I really couldn’t tell you what this film is about. Try yourself. Here is the synopsis: “A post modern avant guard dramedy musical non-musical told nonlinearly.”
Breaking Dawn: Timing TBD.
Nikki Reed
Privileged: This film is completed and should be out in 2010.
Chain Letter: Though the film had trouble getting off the ground, it will release in August in about 400 theaters nationwide.
Breaking Dawn: Timing TBD.
Xavier Samuel

A note about Xavier: He is quite popular now and on a lot of people’s radars. Watch for him to start appearing in more films in 2010 and beyond.

Being Sick is Exhausting
Wow, Let me just say, being sick is exhausting!
I haven't had much of a break from work and when I am not busy with that I have been trying to sleep or relax with my PVR.
I have a cold of some sort and my doctor has rescheduled my appointment twice (because he had to deliver babies) so I am feeling pretty sick and blah!
That being said, I am still posting a few items a day and appreciate your patience :)
Doctor Appointment tomorrow should get me some more meds to conquer this bug and get me back to normal :)
Thanks again for reading, I really appreciate that there are people who check my blog and comment and care about what I have to say!! Very flattering :)

Nikki Reed says Eclipse stunts were tough
Nikki Reed (Rosalie) has said that the Eclipse stunts became "so emotionally and physically draining" that she wanted to "die" while shooting them.
We're always standing out in like 30-degree weather, with pouring rain, trying to keep our vampire makeup intact. It's hectic, it's crazy, it's very jam-packed full of emotion."
"We were doing a lot of stunts, too much in too little time," Reed, 21, said, calling life on set "tough." "The hardest part is trying to fly around on cables in the woods at 6 o'clock, fighting the sunset and stuff. And looking like we're not cold and super powerful, when we just want to die."
But filming with her "lovely" pal Kristen Stewart made those hard times bearable. "She's my buddy," Reed said. "We love each other. We had fun shooting together."

If you colour any of the pics they tweeted and bring it to the merch table at a show you will get a free sticker <3
