Jackson Interview with Red Eye
Mega-squeal! Or shrug, depending on your devotion to Team Edward, Team Jacob, or Team WhoReallyCares.
On Tuesday night “The Twiilght Saga: Breaking Dawn—Part 1” stars Ashley Greene, Nikki Reed, Peter Facinelli, Jackson Rathbone and Charlie Bewley, plus soundtrack contributor Christina Perri walked a red carpet inside the House of Blues. Read below for my interviews with each of them, and check back next week for more with Reed, who I’m talking to at greater length tomorrow.
Jackson Rathbone, who plays Jasper Hale
This movie actually has some scenes in which the characters are happy. How different was that to film?
It was insane for me, I gotta say. I have spent the last three movies trying to control the vampire instincts. And finally in the opening of “Breaking Dawn—Part 1” we get to see Jasper smiling and having a good time and taking his lady on the dance floor.
What happens at a vampire wedding when someone says, “I’ll have the steak.”?
Then they have the steak I suppose. I guess they ask for it raw. Or actually still moving. [Ed. Note: I should have confirmed that I also meant “stake.”]
If you could change one thing about “The Last Airbender,” what would it be?
You know, I wanted to see a little bit more comedy within the character that I played. I’ve always been a little bit of a comedic character actor all through my life, and so to put a little more comedy back in the show would have been fun, but you know M. Night had a very specific vision for the film being more dramatic and dealing with the themes of death and abandonment … so for me, it’s going with the director’s vision.
