Kristen discusses ‘Wanted 2’ rumors with Alicia Malone
Alicia here,
This morning I had the absolute pleasure of talking to adorable "Twilight" twosome Taylor Lautner and Kristen Stewart, who are in town to promote the upcoming "The Twilight Saga : Eclipse". I was absolutely blown away by just how sweet, funny and down-to-earth these two were. They truly and totally surpassed all expectations.
In addition to discussing "Eclipse" and the upcoming "Breaking Dawn" ("I can't wait to see Renesmee!", said Kristen; "We have a very good director behind us who can help with that" added Taylor), I also had the opportunity to quiz Stewart on those "Wanted 2" rumours and get a "Stretch Armstrong" update out of the wonderfully-ribbed Lautner.
Stewart was rumoured to be replacing Angelina Jolie in "Wanted 2" a few weeks back. One almost expected her to laugh off the rumours - but funnily enough, she didn't.
"Right now, I have two projects lined up", Stewart, coyly, responded. "I'm doing On the Road this Summer and then I'm doing Breaking Dawn. So other than that I have nothing 'nailed down'."
Doesn't sound like a denial to me!
Of his future projects, Lautner said "Stretch Armstrong", based on the toy line, is happening but "it's not happening for a while though, about a year from now. I'm doing a movie called Abduction which starts in about a month. Then Breaking Dawn. And hopefully Stretch after that".
Wow, "Stretch Armstrong" is a long ways off - let's hope it doesn't fall by the wayside (like the "Max Steel" movie that Lautner was going to do, did!).
Look out for my interview with this "hot" duo shortly!
Kristen Stewart takes off for a run and Taylor Lautners so impressed, he applauds
EXCITED Twilight star Kristen Stewart goes for a run, claps, let’s out a “whoop!” and gets a huge laugh and an applause from co-star Taylor Lautner moments after they enjoyed a thrilling one-hour jet boat ride around Sydney Harbour.
The pair headed out into the world famous bay just five hours after landing in Australia for the spectacular adrenalin ride, which is hugely popular with tourists.
As they got off the boat after the one-hour ride, Kristen and Taylor shook themselves to get rid of some of the water.
Kristen then took off on a run, taking off on foot along one of Sydney’s picturesque wharfs.
At one point she jumped in the air, clapped, yelled “whoop! C’mon!” then ran off around a corner followed by her concerned entourage.
Taylor found it all incredibly funny and burst out laughing, and applauded his friend Kristen as she took off on foot.
He then said he found the whole boat experience: “Very good.”
Kristen, wearing a black hoodie and black jeans, and Taylor, in a plaid shirt and grey slacks, plus their entourage left their exclusive hotel at lunchtime on Sunday (May 30) to board the boat, called Hammer, run by Oz Jet Boating.
The fiery-red boat has a huge shark’s eyes and teeth painted at its front and flames shooting out of the rear.
It can travel at 85km/h and can perform 270-degree spins and the boat has more than 700 horsepower Cummins Diesel engines with Hamilton jet units on it for extra power.
After climbing on board, Kristen, who had also put on a large beanie hat and shades, let out a “Whoo yeah!”
Taylor, also hiding behind some Ray Bans, looked down at his feet and smiled.
From Circular Quay, they headed out into the bay for a thrilling ride, with views of the Harbour Bridge and Opera House.
Then – soaking wet from the sea spray – they departed the boat at Walsh Bay, an upmarket area with fancy bars and restaurants.
Other stars to recently enjoy the ride include singer Pink, actor Paul Walker and George Michael.
Kristen, who plays Bella Swan, and Taylor, who plays Jacob Black, are in Australia to promote their new movie, Twilight: Eclipse.
