Interview with the Humans
Anna Kendrick, Michael Welch, Christian Serratos and Justin Chon talk New Moon with the ‘Twilight Examiner’.
Q: In New Moon you have a kind of love triangle going on. I’m curious to see how that ended up playing out for you.
Michael: There are a couple of different love triangles there. There’s obviously the one between Bella and Jacob and Edward that Mike is trying to squeeze into. More of a love rectangle. And I guess there’s the one between Mike and Jessica and Bella. You know, Jessica likes Mike. Mike likes Bella. Everybody likes Bella. And it sort of doesn’t turn out great for Mike or Jessica. A lot of this is very indicative of high school heart ache in general, but it’s sort of heightened with these supernatural characters.
Q: What was your favorite scene to shoot?
Mike: My favorite scene by far was the kind of three way date that happened between Mike and Bella and Jacob. That horribly awkward moment when Mike asks Bella out to the movies and she tries to turn it into a group thing and then it ends up being the worst case scenario which is that three way thing. You know, I’m sure it was certainly not a lot of fun for Mike to go through. I mean I can relate, as I’m sure a lot of us can, but it was a
lot of fun to do.Anna: And I would have to say that there is a scene where Jessica and Bella go to the movies. That was fun because Jessica really likes to talk about herself and Bella is really depressed. She’s not saying much. We were just kind of trying to do it all in one take, and Chris told me to just keep talking until we came to a natural stop. So I stopped and just kind of monologued as flighty, silly Jessica which was a blast.
Q: What do you think the fans will be most surprised by in New Moon?
Justin: They will be very surprised when they see how amazing Taylor looks without his shirt on.
[Justin & Christian Laugh]
Christian: Each film is definitely growing, and getting slightly darker as each movie/book goes on. So I think it’s going to be the same but better… a little edgier.
