'The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner' - Hatchette Books
Ever since the news came out that Stephenie Meyer was releasing a new Twilight series book, The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner: An Eclipse Novella, a lot of fans have been dying to know more details about what the story will contain.
Unfortunately, Jodelle Ferland (who portrays "Bree Tanner" in the film)'s recent interview with Urban Rush didn't reveal those sort of details precisely, but she did talk about how the book affected her relationship with the set of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.
"I was allowed to read it because obviously I was playing Bree Tanner, so they wanted me to have sort of you know background for me to be able to play her better. So, I was allowed to read the story, but I actually had to go to set to read it. I couldn’t have a copy . . . I had to sit in a trailer with somebody there with me at all times," she said.
Ferland also talked about how the photograph of herself with the burnt ashes from the Bree Tanner novella came to be.
"After I read the story, we were supposed to destroy, get rid of it. But since we were filming on location, we didn’t have a shredder or anything . . . we could just burn it . . . It was really fun. We sent it to Stephenie.”
Ferland went on to talk about how even after she was cast for the picture she was not allowed to reveal the name of the character she was slated to portray, even despite the fact that most fans had already put two and two together about that piece of information.
Finally, Ferland discussed the possibility that the Bree Tanner story could become its own film, saying “That would be pretty amazing. I don’t know exactly what their plans are."

nooooooo! do not make a movie!!!! that's just milking absolutely everything from the cow. I love the Twilight Saga, but this would be too much :P Stick with Bella, Edward, and Jacob :D
THT WOULD BE TOTALLY GAY A MOVIE OF BREE TANNER REALLY,, SHE IS A NOBODY IN THIS SAGA WOW 10-15 MINUTE PART, NO IF WE WANNA MAKE MOVIES ABOUT INDIVIDUAL CHARACTERS WHY NOT OF THE CHARACTERS THT INTRIQUE US LIKE ALICE, ROSALIE, CARLISLE, THE CULLENS PERIOD AND THERE JOURNEYS TO THE VAMP WORLD, OR EVEN THE QUILETE PACK AND THE CHANGES THEY ENDURED BUT BREE TANNER....REALLY NOT I DONT THINK SOOOO ... STICK TO THE 4 BOOKS AND THE MAIN CHARACTERS...
I think that it could be kind of fun, in a more horror-ish sort of way. David Slade could direct that since he likes horror flicks!
I really, truly hope that they turn Twilight into a television series after it's all said and done. Then the episodes could be about half an hour to an hour long, kind of like True Blood, and focus on one chapter per episode. That would really help people realize how good the books really are. I do like the movies, but I think the writing and crunching books that are at least 500 pages (497, whatever)into a two hour film leave something more to be desired. I guess I'm like any other Twi-hard, I think I'd pretty much buy anything that Twilight peddles.
Got something to say?
