We know ours. Here LimeLife wraps up a two-week series with the gorgeous Julia Jones, who will make her debut in the Twilight saga as Leah Clearwater in Eclipse. Over the last two weeks Jones has filled us in on answers that Twilight fans can only hope for the chance to ask: on-set and cast secrets, how an actor lands a highly-coveted role in the series and how Twilight, as she said, changes lives.
For the final part of our series, Julia was gracious to answer one question for us about what it's really like to work with her co-star Robert Pattinson...and she even opened up about working with Kristen Stewart. We were also so curious whether Robert Pattinson was like some other actors we have heard about about who don't break characters, even when filming has stopped. Is he a hard-core method actor, only responding to people when they call him Edward? Check it out!
LimeLife: Okay Julia Jones, if we could ask you anything about one of your co-stars, it would be this: Does Robert Pattinson speak with an American or a British accent between takes?
Julia Jones: (laughs) Yes, Rob is British, he has a British accent, and he speaks like that when he's not acting! His [American] accent is so good, actually. Sometimes hearing him speak in his normal British accent, I get a little thrown off, because his American accent is just perfect.
LimeLife: Can you tell us whether he is actually a pleasure to work with?
Julia Jones: Oh, he's an absolute pleasure to work with. He's great. He's thoughtful and he's generous and he's laid-back. He's got all the qualities that you'd look for in somebody you'd be working with.
LimeLife: Would you say the same for Kristen Stewart too? We love her.
Julia Jones: I have a lot of respect for [Kristen] because she's just sort of got this balance of being cool and doing her own thing, and then also being very professional and really pushing herself in front of the camera. It's a hard talent to have, especially as a young actor. I was really impressed with her.
Kirsten will play the vampire Lucy whose character figures prominently into the history of Jasper Hale (Jackson Rathbone) that reaches back to the Civil War. How much screen time her character will score is currently unknown.
Eclipse is currently in production in Vancouver, Canada with Kirsten Stewart, Taylor Lautner and Robert Pattinson reprising their roles. David Slade takes the directing reins for the first time in the series.
“It was just really fantastic to get to delve in there and to get to don all the Civil War regalia and whatnot. That was a pleasure,” he said. “I had to wear this wool suit of a major, cavalry major. “I got the big hat and everything. Hop off the horse, bow to these ladies, and then I get eaten. And then I get turned!”
There will also be flashbacks of Jasper training newborn vampires while he’s still “a bad dude, a bad vampire,” Rathbone said. He added that training from another film, “The Last Airbender,” including wrestling, hand-to-hand combat and weapon play, was useful since there wasn’t much time to prepare for the fight scenes in “Eclipse.”
Maria Full Of Grace star, Catalina Sandino Moreno, is the latest fresh face to join the cast of the Twilight sequel, Eclipse. The Colombian actress, 28, will play a vampire – coincidentally called Maria – who builds an undead army in the third film of the Twilight series – The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.
Moreno will join established Twilight stars Robert Pattinson, Peter Facinelli and Kristen Stewart in the movie, which is currently being filmed and is due for a 2010 release.

You all just saw the trailer for the next installment in the Twilight saga, New Moon. So is it too early to start talking about the third movie, Eclipse? We don't think so. And we want to know who will be joining Robert Pattinson to star in it.
Wait, you mean there are going to be more actors and actresses for us to be crazy obsessed with? One thing that's for sure is that Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart will remain a member of the Twilight cast. Phew. But there are still a few roles that need to be filled for Eclipse and we can't wait to find out who is chosen!
The three major roles that need to be filled starting with brother and sister werewolves Seth and Leah Clearwater. These characters live in La Push like fellow werewolf Jacob, played by Taylor Lautner. We hear that the production is looking for First Nations actors to fill both roles.
The third role to be filled is Riley, a clean-cut, blonde college boy who falls for Victoria.
Sounds like we are all in for at least another crush. Seth's character in the book is absolutely adorable and we are sure we will love him. As for Riley, we are also sure they will cast someone extra hot. Rumor had is that Channing Tatum was up for the role. Interesting. We'll definitely keep you posted!
Eclipse is set to start filming at the end of the summer so we are hoping to have news on the cast soon!
So, more Twilight hunks to compete with Robert Pattinson. Do you think they could cast someone even hotter than him? Take a look at our favorite Robert P pics and then decide.
With the first trailer for The Twilight Saga: New Moon barely 24 hours old, news has already leaked of casting breakdowns for three characters in the third Twilight film, Eclipse. Casting directors are looking for actors to take on at least three roles for the film, to be directed by David Slade (30 Days of Night):
* Riley "a handsome, blond, clean-cut college boy who falls victim to Victoria [and] plays an integral role in Victoria's attempt to murder Bella Swan."
* Seth Clearwater, a member of the La Push werewolf clan and a "tall, gangly-limbed boy with a huge, happy grin [who] idolizes Jacob."
* Leah Clearwater, Seth's big sister, and the only woman in La Push, who is "tall and slender with beautiful skin and short cropped black hair. She would be considered gorgeous if not for the perpetual scowl she carries due to a broken heart and her anger issues."
Casting directors are reportedly looking to cast the Clearwater siblings with Native American or First Nation actors. (E! Online first reported these casting details.) The film is due in theaters in June 2010.
