Rachelle Lefevre looks absolutely gorgeous in this photo shoot from the November 2009 issue of Gotham magazine. We all know she’s cool because she’s Canadian just like me…and we just roll like that. And to prove how cool she is here is proof…
“When I first got to LA, everybody said I was too ‘girl-next-door’ for edgier roles,” she says. “I ended up playing a stripper, an escort, a vampire and an off-her-rocker troubled poet. I keep playing roles that are not even close to the girl next door.”
Rachelle has two film projects coming up and is going to be very busy. But we already knew that she was amazing.
Truth be told, I really just wanted a reason to post a picture of Kellan Lutz and have a reason to talk about him. I have been having major discussions about Kellan and his acting skills in Facebook for the last couple of days, so I had to prove that yes, Kellan is amazing beyond the two lines that everyone says he only has.
So look at this behind the scenes footage of Kellan for Self magazine and tell me if he is not adorable. (Side note: Kellan if you are reading this…I need your sweater. ASAP. Thank you.)
This photo shoot for Self magazine with Kellan Lutz, Ashley Greene and Rachelle Lefevre reminds me of one thing, back in my early 20’s I was at a party in the woods at a cottage. Seeing Kellan dressed like this reminds me of the good times I had.
I am loving Kellan with the blond hair…Okay I love Kellan period…
I figured for this post, a quote directly from the book “Eclipse” written by the incomparable Stephenie Meyer was fitting.
I’m a voracious reader, but I prefer classic literature, however, when Twilight Fever hit, I thought perhaps I should read it for myself, see what I thought about it. Surely, I rationalized with my adult mind, it can’t be THAT good, but I was wrong.
I adore the saga, I truly do.
Now, mind you, when I heard it was going to be turned into a movie, I didn’t know whether to be excited or appalled. It turns out, I’ve been a little bit of both, more than once, over the course of the last solid year and some change.
First, the cast is absolutely stunning, they’re all beautiful, but if I was to say I thought that casting was perfect for each role, I’d be lying.
However, now that they are set in those roles, they have become the faces of those beloved characters, the world over, and we all like them just where they are. The ONE role that was filled, I had no doubts about? Victoria/Rachelle … because she looked and sounded EXACTLY how I pictured she would.
It seems, though, that Summit Entertainment doesn’t seem to find themselves feeling that way.
They will be re-casting Victoria, (played by Rachelle Lefevre),her replacement? Bryce Dallas Howard.
You’re not alone if you just said “WHO?!” Okay, so she was in Spiderman..3 was it? Oh,yay. And, apparently, she writes? Have you checked out Rachelle’s list of accomplishments? Now, I’m not saying that Bryce isn’t talented, but no offense, I can write, (see! look I’m doing it now), I have also been in a commercial, so hey Summit, I’m waiting on my call for Breaking Dawn.
All of this was brought on because they cite scheduling differences, but it’s awfully funny that Bryce was cast immediately. I have my conspiracy theories, that I will spare you, because I’m sure you house your own. My advice? Email Summit, and tell them that changing cast mid saga is shooting themselves in the foot.
Will I go to the theatre to see any of the other movies? Nah, I think I’ll pass. Originally I thought, I’d purchase the rest of them, and leave them un-opened on my shelf, to complete my set. Now, I think I may not, because to do so, would be an injustice to Rachelle, on my part.
She’s hurt, you can read all about it here: UGH!, but I am livid.
This is absolutely ridiculous, and honestly, if the movie flops, (Which it probably won’t,due to the popularity of the books, and the phenomenal following they have) they would deserve it. Rachelle darling, we still love you.
UPDATE: Summit has released their counter statement to Rachelle, and personally, I think, I’m even more irritated with them, if that is possible. You can read it here BS. This isn’t the first time that Summit has made a poor decision, think back to the almost re-cast of Jacob Black. That sparked outrage, and hopefully their underhanded, back peddling actions in both cases will continue to do the same. If you want to be a reputable, respected company, you have to come harder than that, with something more mature, and intelligent than THAT statement guys. Honestly, you expect us to believe you JUST found out there may have been schedule conflicts on the 20th but she had been replaced by yesterday, which was the 28th by MY calendar, and yet you guys are the “woe is me” victims? Ha. Don’t make me laugh.
After all the mayhem at the Twilight release parties, Kellan Lutz and Rachelle Lefevre, hit the Kitson store on Robertson Blvd in West Hollywood today to make an appearance. Where was I for all this Twilight hype?
I am on a mission to write more about Kellan, I have mentioned this before but it stands to be repeated. He is the one that seems to never be mentioned. Well I will mention him. Okay, rant over.
Last night was the DVD release of the Twilight movie. Although, I didn’t get to go to any of the release parties I did see this on YouTube and had to share. This was the video that Borders showed last night at their release party. It has some of the cast Taylor Lautner, Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Ashley Green and Rachelle Lefevre. They say they are getting ready for New Moon to start filming on Monday. But the best part comes at the end when Robert says goodbye. Wait for it…it’s good!
