'Breaking Dawn' Cast Answers Important Questions In The Yes/No Show

Posted 11/8/11 4:41 pm EST by in After Hours


Do Taylor Lautner's friends call him "Sharkboy"? Is Robert Pattinson keeping up with the Kardashians? Has Peter Facinelli ever killed a man? These are the burning questions that MTV News has bravely asked the cast of "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn -- Part 1" in the latest edition of the universally beloved worldwide phenomenon known as The Yes/No Show.

Cast favorites like Pattinson, Lautner, Elizabeth Reaser, Facinelli, Nikki Reed, Jackson Rathbone, Julia Jones and Booboo Stewart all participated in what has got to be our biggest contestant pool to date. So does Lautner only eat Slim Jims and drink Fanta? Has Pattinson seen Kristen Stewart's early film "Zathura"? Can Rathbone name two Justin Bieber songs? Find out by watching the above video, and let us know what you think of the "Breaking Dawn" special in the comments section below or on Twitter!

Comic-Con Celebrities: Are They Geeks Or Posers?

Posted 7/28/11 4:00 pm EST by in After Hours


FROM MTV SPLASH PAGE: Forget booth babes, could it be that the celebrities are the real posers at Comic-Con? MTV News decided to get to the bottom of this curious dilemma in the special SDCC installment of After Hours: "Geeks or Posers?"

With nerdy stars like Patrick Stewart and Jon Favreau flocking to the convention center, we figured that the five-question quiz would be easy picking for actors of their caliber. Little did we know how few Hollywood leading men and ladies had any idea what manga was, or how most of the world has forgotten the full title of "Superman IV."

Johnny Depp Beats Out 'Twilight' Stars To Top IMDb's List Of Most Searched Celebs Of 2010

Posted 12/30/10 10:41 am EST by in Commentary


Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger TidesThe Internet Movie Database has compiled its list of the top 25 (and top 100) most searched stars in 2010, and if there's anything that it shows it's that the "Twilight Saga" stars might actually be going out of style. While Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson still sit happily at the #2 and #3 spots (respectively), Taylor Lautner tumbled from the #5 spot in 2009 down to the #14 spot this year, Dakota Fanning went from #8 to #18, and Ashley Greene and Nikki Reed fell off the list entirely. (Greene dropped to #52 in the top 100 while Reed joined co-stars Kellan Lutz and Peter Facinelli somewhere outside the top hundy.)

But does that really mean anything for the series? Probably not, considering Daniel Radcliffe is nowhere to be see on the list, Emma Watson dropped from #53 to #64, and Rupert Grint was never on it at all, yet "Harry Potter" continues to dominate in the box office. Maybe the reason why the "Twilight" stars were searched less is because 90 percent of the global movie-loving audience can now recite their filmographies from memory, but you never know.

Unsurprisingly, the top spot on IMDb's list goes to Johnny Depp, taking that honor for the sixth time. Considering Depp's won in the past without having any movies come out that year, the release of "Alice in Wonderland," "The Tourist" and the new "Pirates of the Caribbean" trailer made this one Depp's to lose. Find out who else made the cut after the jump. Read More...

Hayden Panettiere, Nikki Reed Go Chicago-Suburb Psycho In Bret Easton Ellis's 'Downers Grove'

Posted 11/8/10 11:33 am EST by in News


Hayden PanettiereHayden Panettiere is 21 and Nikki Reed is 22, but they just can't seem to get enough of high school. According to Variety, the actresses are set to star in the thriller "Downers Grove," based on the Michael Hornburg novel about a cursed high school in a Chicago suburb where each year one senior dies a bizarre death right before graduation.

Here's the truly interesting part: "Less Than Zero," "American Psycho" and "Rules of Attraction" novelist Bret Easton Ellis has adapted the screenplay for the film. Judging by the aforementioned log-line, the movie would seem to be along the lines of the "Final Destination" flicks -- a strange fit for a man like Ellis, who's know for novels generously laden with social commentary, violence, perversity and satire.

There we chatted with Katherine Heigl and Ashton Kutcher, who popped off a hilarious monologue about why Robert Pattinson should win every single award...ever! We also sat down for a chat with Pattinson's "Eclipse" co-star Nikki Reed, who dished about scenes from their upcoming vampire flick. And in a few hours, we'll venture off for a conversation with "New Moon" director Chris Weitz, whose film is nominated for five Movie Awards this year.

'New Moon' Director Chris Weitz And Star Nikki Reed Come Out To Celebrate The Home Video Release

Posted 3/22/10 11:30 am EST by in News


FROM MTV.COM: While there were midnight parties for the "New Moon" DVD and Blu-ray release taking place across the country Friday night, only those living in the Los Angeles area were treated to the company of both the director and a main star. Director Chris Weitz and actress Nikki Reed traveled to the Wal-Mart in Santa Clarita to celebrate the release.

"I like to go to Wal-Mart to hold press conferences just at odd moments, so this is not my first time," Weitz joked when he spoke with MTV News at the event. "But usually people don't show up with cameras. I'm just talking to an imaginary microphone."

Kristen Stewart Still Hopes To Play A Transsexual Prison Inmate With Nikki Reed And Jason Mewes In 'K-11'

Posted 3/17/10 12:00 pm EST by in News


Back in March, we learned of a plan for "Twilight" players Kristen Stewart and Nikki Reed to appear together "in a fact-based drama/comedy that would have them playing men." The movie, called "K-11," would mark the directorial debut of Stewart's mother, Jules. And it would place the two ladies-as-men in an LA prison with co-star Jason Mewes. Wacky.

We caught up with Kristen this week as she was promoting the Friday release of her latest effort, "The Runaways," and she shared a little bit of what's been going on with "K-11" since we last heard about it.

"It's just one of those things where you try and get a movie off the ground that's small," Kristen said of the non-movement. Read More...

Checking In With Kellan Lutz And Nikki Reed At The New York City Stop On The 'Twilight' Mall Tour

Posted 11/20/09 1:30 pm EST by in News, Photos


FROM HOLLYWOOD CRUSH: After months of filming in rain-drenched Portland, Oregon and Vancouver, "New Moon" stars Nikki Reed and Kellan Lutz must have felt right at home in Manhattan as a persistent drizzle lingered over the city. But unlike shoots for their vampire romance, the onscreen duo stayed toasty and dry inside the Times Square Toys "R" Us greeting fans and signing autographs for the final leg of the "Twilight" mall tour.

About 500 lovely ladies and a few fellows (not a surprising ratio by now) waited for hours in a line that snaked around the block, with some like Julianne Castillo and Vanesa Rayes, both 18 from Jamaica, Queens, having been outside since before 6 a.m.

"We got up at four o'clock in the morning. We were outside by 5:30 in the morning," Julianne said. "We want to be the first ones on line. That's when all the excitement is there from the actors. We want to have the energy on that paper."
