First On Set Photos from 'New Moon'
Sunday, March 15, 2009 at 12:44AM
New Moon, the Twilight follow-up that's destined to be one of the bigger sequels of the year, is currently in production in Vancouver. The Second Vowel in the Alphabet snagged some photos on the set of Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Nikki Reed, and Taylor Lautner.

"Don't worry about containing your excitement," writes the website's Peter Gicas upon seeing the photos. "We certainly aren't!" Gicas is presumably a grown man, though it's a little hard to tell after reading that. One thing stands out to me in the pictures: How big a cliche is Robert Pattinson in this shot? The sunglasses, the cigarette, the hand in the pocket...yep, he must be an actor, all right.
There are also reports that Lautner (Team Jacob) has been working out for the sequel to try to look less like a high school kid and more like someone who can transform into a beastly werewolf. You can kind of see that in his picture, taken from a good distance away. I mean, if not for the baby face, he could pass for a member of the security detail here.


New Moon will be out on November 20th, and just as a reminder, Twilight hit DVD next Saturday at midnight.

I say go for it Rob, alot of people smoke and its not like he is underage. The sunnies are on prob beacuse its sunny or people r taking photos and he is trying to hide the tired bags like most of us. He is Human. Alot of Aussies do the same thing
I do not see how it is a cliche,loads of people smoke...it isnt exactly stereotyped for actors....and what does it matter? Sunglasses....Well perhaps its sunny .....nooo thats too obvious (sheeeeesh)
Looks as though Kristin has a cigarette aswell..but no dont criticise her...just rob...god people leave him alone
(Rant over, people keep whinging about his hair choice and everything .....leave him alone you creeps!! :P)
Robert is so FIT, but there's better good looking britz, I always thought he was really good looking when I saw him in Harry Potter 4, People only recognised his beauty after Twilight came out.
I think people are just jealous because there are millions of women (and men) that think Robert is sexxxyyyy! Let him smoke, Let him drink, who really gives a..... It only makes him hotter when people start to hate on him
People need to stop hating on the New Moon cast for smoking! Thats what actors do, Taylor would be to if he was old enough. But I hope they stop. No one wants to see Rob or Kirsten get Lung Cancer.
Colin, you should know better than to say anything that could even remotely be construed as a bash against Robert Pattinson. Fangirls will immediately jump down your throat. He's pretty much God in most of their eyes. :D
shrug The cast are aware of the causes of long-term smoking. I am sure they have taken it into consideration (for their health, their loved ones & families, and their fans) to monitor their smoking habit. Like I have said in previous comments and many agree, it is their lives. Rob...sooo much knew what was going on and wanted to have that "fun-loving, full-of-life" kind of appearance to show all his fans! You go Pattz! Taylor is Nikki's and Kristen's bodyguard! Do Not Mess With The Beast! Go Team Twilight!
Wow...I was kind of half-joking. I just thought it was odd that the only photo they had was of Pattinson doing what we always think actors do - smoke and wear sunglasses. Not trying to start a riot.
aqui en latinoamerica encontramos a rob muy sexy fume o no......y mejor si tiene lentes....!!!
RIOT RIOT RIOT!! Now all the chickens are in a fluster.
Is Kristen smoking too? Man cancer city on that set huh? "
i cant belive kristine she ist to pretty to smoke crack and i cant belive rob how could u like megan fox i thought u loved kritine dirint u propose to her i mean common rob seriously
*kristine* he was just kidding when he praposed to kristin on set.
oh and who cares if they smoke its there decision, i mean rob your still sexxy when you smoke!
Is it just me, or besides the glasses and cigarette, does Rob look like he's freezing his a$$ off? I mean, think about it. Its March. They're in Vancouver, Canada, which isn't especially known for its early (or warm) springs. Maybe he's really trying to cool his skin down for scene authenticity. Who knows? Maybe he should worry about catching his death from a cold or pneumonia. But, as a smoker myself, (I at least wear a JACKET!!!) I say more power to him and Kristin.
SMOKERS OF THE WORLD UNITE!!!
I love Twilight and am counting down the days til the next one :-) But i really dont think the mentioning of the cigarette in the article was to criticize Rob for smoking. I think the author was just making a point that he looked like a stereotypical actor already .. it's ok, he looks great doing it!!
rob & kristen smoking yeah it's great lung cancer, yellow teeth, stinky breath, clothes and hair yeah "the new thing"
