More from Stephenie Meyer's The Twilight Saga: Eclipse fansite junket with four sites - Twilight Series Theories, Twilight Source, Twifans, and Letters To Twilight - has been revealed, and this time she's talked to them about The Twilight Saga: Eclipse and The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner: An Eclipse Novella.
Twilight Series Theories has posted a portion including the new Bree Tanner information . . . one part of which a lot of you have expressed interest in: does "Freaky Fred" ever meet the Cullens?
"If I were to go ahead with it, he would definitely come up again. After his character sort of warmed he would fit into a rightly place. I don’t see Edward actively seeking him out. Having the knowledge he had gotten from Bree he realizes that Fred probably wouldn’t appreciate that pretty much, but I do see them crossing paths," she explained.
She went on to discuss Fred's backstory and the logisitics of his special power, and you can read all about that here at Twilight Series Theories!
Twifans asked a really interesting question about Eclipse and the "Angry Edward" sequence outside of Bella's house.
Many Twilight fans were on the fence about the scene. Some found Robert Pattinson's performance to be great, while others thought that the progression of that moment strayed too far from the cool, collected Edward Cullen they'd grown to know with the book.
Stephenie Meyer, it seems, sided with the latter during shooting.
"That’s the one I walked out on, on the dailies because in my head that scene was so much different. In the movie Edward is quite separate motivation-ally from the book Edward. At this point in the film in the story for me he’s gotten past this. Like he’s realized 'I can’t act like a teenage boy anymore. I have to give her space. I have to be the mature one here.' And in that scene in the book, he has, icy calm control. He is very gentle. He is very soft spoken. He is very mature . . . They had already filmed that day, so we couldn’t redo it but, people have responded really well to it," she explained.
Read and listen to the rest here at Twifans!
Finally, Letters to Twilight has three bits of audio where Stephenie Meyer talks about whether she's a fan of other vampire series like True Blood and how perfectly she finds Riley to have been cast in Xavier Samuel. She also reveals a quite interesting story about Xavier Samuel's first experience with the paparazzi.

Not to be a pain, but I think you mean that Stephenie Meyer sided with the latter on the Angry Edward scene. Former would be the first group in your statement, those who liked the movie scene, and the latter would be those who thought the cool calm Edward from the book would have been better. :-)
@IrishGirl Haha, thanks for pointing that out. Fixing . . . :)
Hmmm, could Stephenie talk about Midnight Sun, please? Preferably saying she's about to release it. ;)
I'm interested in knowing more about the Short Life of Bree story... "spoiler here if you haven't read it"... How the Volturi (Jane) doesn't like the Cullen's so much and would like to see them destroyed. Sounds like a movie to me ;)
I just finished reading the "bree tanner" novella last week, I wanted to read it after I saw Eclipse...I am fascinated with "Freaky Fred" and in addition, I know that Bree had formulated in her mind what happened to Diego. But...what if he didn't die, what if he survived Riley and he has formed his own coven??? Would he be a "good vamp? or would he be a "evil vamp?"
Would he be another James? I don't see Freaky Fred that way, I see him more as a "civil vampire" and maybe even hooking up at some point, with the Cullens or another "vegetarian" vampire clan.
Hmmmm?
I can understand why SM didn't like the Angry Edward scene because it didn't fit the book... BUT... I LOVE angry-edward. It was yummy even though it wasn't book-cannon.
And on a completely different note... NOBODY WANTS TO READ MIDNIGHT SUN... EVER!!! Move on Stephenie, move on!!!
Got something to say?
