The Twilight Saga: Eclipse The Movie

You’ve all heard the rumors about the possibility of “Breaking Dawn” splitting into two movies, a la Harry Potter.  And from the exclusive Kellan Lutz scoop, it sounds like it may very well be true.  It’ll be interesting to see how it works, what with the huge Jacob perspective part of that book.  Surely Team Jacob is rooting for two movies.

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.”
