Kellan talks about Breaking Dawn and a desire to work with Matt Damon
May I remind you the news accuracy is dependant on the news source... please remember that with all posts :
If you're psyched about the prospect of a two-part "Breaking Dawn," you're not alone.
"Twilight" hottie Kellan Lutz is also into it.
"They haven't told the rest of us actors yet," he confided exclusively to The Dish Rag at the Hollywood Foreign Press Young Hollywood party last night at Nobu.
"I have read that they are talking to Rob, Taylor and Kristen to negotiate to make 'Dawn' into two movies. I'd love for it to be two films," he added.
How about that "Twilight" TV series rumor? "I just heard that too. I don't know how. You already have the books and the story's been told so beautifully. And there's already 'True Blood' and 'Vampire Diaries,' and they're both great. I don't know how it would work. Twenty two episodes?
And are you listening, Matt Damon? Because Kellan Lutz seriously wants to bro up with you in your "Bourne" action film franchise.
"I'm making this checklist as an actor," he confided. "Right now I just really want to be part of the Bourne franchise and the more I say that, maybe Matt Damon will read it and it and maybe I can play his brother."
We could totally see that. They even look a bit alike.
And on the heels of his co-star Taylor Lautner's move into the teen superhero flick, "Max Steel," Kellan wouldn't mind some super powers himself very soon. "I'd love to be 'Captain America' someday."
He's not sure exactly what his next project will be yet. And its too early to talk specifics. But it's definitely going to in the action or romantic comedy genre. And what else did we learn during our chat with Kellan:
Broad strokes about his upcoming projects
"They're are going to studios to get the funding, and there's one I will produce. Most are action films and a couple of romantic comedies and I'm just thrilled with all the scripts."
On "Twilight" being his Golden Ticket
"People work 20 years to get what we have," Kellan admits. "We really are so lucky. Its like you get a headstart and its all because of the fans. And it's not just about money or getting offers, it's that we can mold our careers."
On attributing "Twilight" franchise success to Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart
"The rest of us, we could suck probably," Kellan says. "It's Rob and Kristen who have the amazing chemistry. Without those two keystones, "Twilight" could have flopped. It really could have."

Taylor Lautner working for Armani?
In Touch Weekly magazine is reporting today that Giorgio Armani is planning to make Taylor Lautner, who will be hosting Saturday Night Live this coming weekend, the new face of his budget fashion line for Armani Exchange. According to the mag, Lautner’s people are denying that any offer has been made … officially … but the mag cites sources that say a deal is on the table. Could Lautner really become the new face and, well, body, of Armani Exchange?
Taylor Lautner is poised to become the next face of Giorgio Armani. According to a fashion insider, the Italian designer is trying to sign the Twilight hunk for a new ad campaign for fragrances, as well as for his more affordable line of clothing, A/X Armani Exchange. “Giorgio has offered Taylor a deal rumored to be worth millions for the ads,” the insider reveals. And although a rep for Taylor denies the story, the insider adds, “Taylor is flattered and really considering it.” If he does take the job, he’ll have some big briefs to fill. Soccer star David Beckham sent huge crowds into hysterics when he turned up at Selfridges & Co. in London to unveil his underwear ad. Taylor completely bulked up to play the werewolf Jacob in New Moon. “I went from a men’s small to a men’s large,” he says.
He'd be a great model for this campaign.... rawr!
Life after Harry Potter
Tom Felton, the villianous Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter movies, can't avoid it.
All anyone wants to know about these days is what was it was like to work with Robert Pattinson when he played Cedric Diggory in two Potter flicks.
"Obviously, we met a few times and had the old chat, but I don't recall going that deep with him," Felton admits from New York City, where he's promoting the DVD release of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. "He was tremendously professional on-set and a great laugh."
But best of all, Felton says, Pattinson's Twilight success is "proof that there's life after Harry Potter."
