Interview About Breaking Dawn Filming From The Press Conference in Rio With Wyck Godfrey & Bill Condon

“In the mid­dle of the shoot­ing of Break­ing Dawn, the fourth movie of the Twi­light Saga, the direc­tor, Bill Con­don, went to a press con­fer­ence this mon­day on Cine Roxy, in Copaca­bana.

The direc­tor told ‘R7’ that Robert Pat­tin­son and Kris­ten Stew­art are lov­ing the fans.

As much as they love it,I am too. By the way, I wanna tell this to all of them. We are lov­ing the fans and the city.

The direc­tor said that the choice of the city as loca­tion was stim­u­lated by Rio Filmes, that decided to included Rio de Janeiro in the movie’s screen­play.

Rio is a excit­ing place, thats why we decided that the city should be a part in the movie. We wanted this to be excit­ing because it’s Break­ing Dawn. We did a scene at Lapa with Edward [Pat­tin­son] and Bella [Kris­ten] to show the authen­tic side of the city.

Con­don said the order to the pro­duc­tion was to find less stereo­typed place for the shoot­ing. So that’s why there was the option of film at Lapa and at Saco de Maman­guá Isle, in Paraty, where the cast will go today.

The pro­ducer, Wyck God­frey revealed that the shoot­ing with the actors in Rio are already fin­ished. Ser­gio Sá Leitão, Rio Filmes pres­i­dent, added that Break­ing Dawn staff will be back to Rio to make ate­r­ial images of the city.

When he was asked if the cou­ple had time to enjoy the city, the direc­tor said that the sched­ule was planned just for the shoot­ing.

The sched­ule is very tight, but we love what we have seen. I loved bossa nova, for exam­ple.

On the press con­fer­ence, the direc­tor crit­i­cised the star Sylvester Stal­lone, that filmed some scenes of The Expend­ables in Brazil, in 2009. The actor said bad things about the city.

For­get about Stal­lone. We loved the city and we are not going to leave and then say­ing bad things about it. I have an open invi­ta­tion to join the Rio Fes­ti­val in 2011 and I will cer­tainly be here.

The Rio Filmes reported that the film team Will be here for 10 days in Rio de Janeiro – they arrived on Fri­day (5) – but only 5 days Will be for the shoot­ing. The other days will be for DISPLACEMENT OF EQUIPMENTS AND OF THE PRODUCTION.

In Rio de Janeiro for Break­ing Dawn Shoot­ing, the pro­ducer and direc­tor of the movie said that they feel safe in Rio and aren’t afraid of the vio­lence in the city.

“We felt safe here. The writer thought Rio as the local to the story, and we are sat­is­fied being here”, said Wyck God­fredy, pro­ducer of the movie.

In the last book of the Stephanie Meyer’s saga there is scenes that hap­pen in Brazil, so that’s why they wished to film in Rio. How­ever, a gun­fire hap­pened in august in Rio and shud­dered the nego­ci­a­tions. In the time, the for­eign pro­ducer claimed the secu­rity lack.

“Its easy and funny to be in Rio. We had all the nec­es­sary incen­tives. We were wait­ing for this a long time ago”, told Bill Con­dom, the direc­tor.

Kris­ten Stew­art and Robert Pat­tin­son arrived in Rio in the last Fri­day for the Break­ing Dawn shoot­ing. On Sun­day, they filmed in Lapa. Some res­i­dents com­plained about the shoot­ing but, accord­ing to Ser­gio Sá Leitão, from Rio Filmes, the pro­duc­tion didn’t have complaints”
