• Filming Wraps for New Moon Cast

  Principal filming for New Moon is over for many of the movie's actors, including Jamie Campbell Bower (Caius), Nikki Reed (Rosalie), and Ashley Greene (Alice).

  In a recent tweet, Bower said "Cannot believe its over have had the best time and will miss the New Moon crew. Homeward bound tomorrow." Lainey Gossip also has pictures of Greene arriving at LAX, along with news that Robert Pattinson (Edward) is done filming until his Volterra scenes in Italy, having just finished shooting a dream sequence in the meadow. Kristen Stewart (Bella), Taylor Lautner (Jacob), and the other members of the Wolf Pack are presumably still hard at work, and were last seen holed up in Bella's house.

• Party Time for New Moon

  Rumor has it filming of New Moon's Cullen-house scenes wrapped yesterday, ending with what looks like Bella's birthday party.

  Peter Facinelli (Carlisle), Nikki Reed (Rosalie), Jackson Rathbone (Jasper), Kristen Stewart (Bella) , and Robert Pattinson (Edward) were all spotted wearing birthday party attire, in order to film what is one of the most important scenes in the book -- the scene where everything goes wrong.

  We're happy to see that Reed's blonde wig looks more realistic than previous efforts, and this time we hope Rosalie's hair will stop changing in every scene (Twilight, anyone?). Even she isn't clever enough to change her hair whilst running from a murderous vampire. Continuity, people. It's important.

• Robert Pattinson Shoots First New Moon Scenes

  Rumor has it Robert Pattinson shot his first New Moon scenes on Tuesday, with on-screen love interest Kristen Stewart.

  The pair were spotted filming unknown scenes, in what was Pattinson's first time on set. Prior to this he'd been busy sorting out his still-too-short hair, spending a lot of time with co-star Nikki Reed, and appearing in a state of undress on hundreds of websites. What a busy week.

• Twilight BFF's to Play Men

  Twilight stars Nikki Reed and Kristen Stewart can next be seen playing men in upcoming movie K-11. Said Reed, "K-11 is where they basically put people who wouldn't survive in the general population [in prison]. I'm playing a man who has become a woman.... I was born a man, but I never felt like a man -- I always knew that I was a woman. I just was born with the wrong body parts."

  K-11 will shoot during a break between New Moon and Eclipse, and it's written and directed by Stewart's mom, Jules Mann-Stewart. It also stars Jason Mewes. No points for guessing how Stewart and best pal Reed ended up with starring roles. Hmmmm ... maybe they're hoping to give Robert Pattinson's controversial role in Little Ashes a run for its money.

• New Moon Rehearsals Done, Kristen Stewart Tells Naibe

  

  Naibe Reynoso is a correspondent for ReelzChannel TV's Movie News, and occasionally shares stories from the field.

  Just days before the DVD release of Twilight, Kristen Stewart made an appearance last night at the Mann Chinese Theatre in Hollywood to promote her latest movie Adventureland, a romantic comedy starring Jesse Eisenberg. Actress Nikki Reed, who plays vampire Rosalie in the franchise, was also there as a guest, as well as plenty of Twilight fans ready to get a glimpse of Bella.

  I talked to Stewart, who looked stunning in her bright-orange mini dress. She says rehearsals for New Moon are done, and she is now excited about filming. The young actress also commented on Taylor Lautner, telling me he is "just amazing." And when I asked about her new director, Chris Weitz, she said, "He is compassionate, generous, and down to earth."

  I also interviewed Adventureland director Greg Mottola about Stewart, who he cast before she signed on to Twilight. Mottola said that one day on the set Kristen told him in a nonchalant way that she got a part in a vampire movie. It turned out to be Twilight. "Lucky for me it has a huge following, and maybe we will get some of her fans to see Adventureland, too!" said Mottola.

• Being A Twilight Starlet Is Hard

  Don't be jealous of Twilight's Nikki Reed as she traipses around Vancouver with Taylor Lautner and Kristen Stewart preparing to shoot New Moon. It's not easy being (playing) Rosalie Hale. It's hard, very hard. Reed tells MTV that it was excruciating to get her hair blond for the first film. "My hair fell out," she says. "It took 36 hours initially to make me blond, and every other day, I was bleaching my head and my skin."

  For New Moon, Reed won't be bleaching (and possibly balding) again. "This time around, we are testing out different wigs and stuff," she says, as part of a larger extreme makeover (and bigger budget) plan by director Chris Weitz. "The goal is for something better, just better, all around better," she says of Weitz's plans, not exactly sounding like the biggest Catherine Hardwicke supporter.

  Reed has other reasons (not just possible balding and dark roots), for not wanting to bleach this time. She's hoping to squeeze in shooting a non-Twilight flick, K-11 (also with Kristen Stewart), in between New Moon and Eclipse.

• New Moon Cast Lands in Vancouver

  Last week, Twilight's Taylor Lautner was spotted out and about in Vancouver. Now, as New Moon gets ready to start shooting, other cast members have been seen around the city. Kristen Stewart (Bella Swan) and Nikki Reed (Rosalie Cullen) were photographed in the Canadian city with Lautner. Stewart and Reed appear quite close in the snaps, holding hands and sharing a cig. No sign of Robert Pattinson or newly confirmed cast member Dakota Fanning in Vancouver just yet, though perhaps she won't join the gang until they're shooting in the town of Volterra in Italy.

• It's Official: Dakota Fanning and New Moon!

  Contain yourself. It's finally official. A Summit Entertainment rep has confirmed that Dakota Fanning will star as Jane in New Moon. The Twilight sequel is set to start shooting later this month in Vancouver. Nikki Reed, the actress playing Rosalie Hale in the film, says they've just received a script for the film.

  As we mentioned last week, Fanning is also in talks to star with Kristen Stewart in the '70s biopic The Runaways.

• Twilight Starlets Nikki Reed and Kristen Stewart Discuss Reteaming as Men in Prison Story K-11

  

  Now that Twilight is out and on its way to likely box office glory, how will stars Kristen Stewart and Nikki Reed follow their respective performances as Bella and Rosalie? Well by playing men in prison, of course.

  “I play a 30 year-old man,” Reed told ReelzChannel. “I’m going to be covered head-to-toe in tattoos. I’m going to be aged. I have scruff, I have [thicker] eyebrows and I’m a meth addict. Everything about my physical being right now will not be a part of that character.”

  “K-11 takes place in a dorm of the L.A. County jail,” Stewart adds. “It’s where you go if you can’t be put into the general population. It’s full of really eccentric, crazy characters. Nikki and I play two of them. Jason Mewes wakes up in this place, doesn’t know where he is and tries to get out for two weeks to see if he can integrate himself into the community. It’s this really, really sweet but really screwed up little family going on in there.”

  The ambitious project will be directed by Stewart’s mother, Jules Stewart. More to come as we hear it on this intriguing movie.

• Interview with Twilight's Rosalie, Nikki Reed

  Nikki Reed wants the world to know she isn't really like the bad girls she always winds up playing on screen. "It's so not me," the young actress told ReelzChannel during a spirited exclusive interview.

  In person, Reed made a strong case for the statement. Friendly, jokey and even a little silly, Reed was all smiles during our chat despite the exhaustion of a long day of Twilight press.

  To help her blow off some steam, we took a different approach, going for a walk while conducting our Exclusive Interview with Twilight's Nikki Reed.
