Hey everybody,

Just wanted to let everyone know that I am in Oregon filming TWILIGHT, the highly anticipated film based on Stephenie Meyer's NY Times best selling novel. Twilight is the first in a series. I highly recommend the book and I hope you will come check out the movie.The film is being directed by Catherine Hardwicke and comes out in December.  I am playing Dr. Carlisle Cullen, the head of the Cullen Family, a coven a vampires living among humans in a small rural town, trying to fit in. Don't worry, it's not a gory vampire movie, but more of a beautiful love story set in a vampire tale. Let me know if you have any questions, and I'd be happy to answer them.

Peter

All of us over at Twilight Moms are THRILLED to have you in this role! You'll make the perfect vampire "dad". I can't wait to see our beloved Twilight (and hopefully the sequels) come to life on the big screen!

Thanks for being awesome! Good luck with the role!

I agree with Twilight Moms. I'm sure everyone can agree that we are absolutely ecstatic to see this movie finally come together with such an amazing cast.

To say that I am impatient for this movie to come out is putting it lightly.

Break-a-leg filming!!! We love you and support you 100%

Hello Mr. Facinelli,

I hope you have a rewarding experience on this movie and with your character. Personally, Carlisle is one of my favourite characters in the book series. I like how he lives out a pacifist ideal -by his protection of human life- even against his nature. Also, how he has reflected on his own existence: what are they -vampires-? Are they -or not- part of God´s work? (as read in the New Moon book), among others.

Were you personally attracted to these traits?

Thanks for taking the time out to read our questions and have a good day.

Estefania.

Twilight Series Theories

 
We are so glad that you are Carlisle! There are always questions with us! We do a podcast about the Twilight Series each week! It would be great if you could answer some questions...we get so many from fans asking if we have heard anything from the actors! If you have time to check out twilightseriestheories.com, that would be great! And, if you love it, then you are always invited to join us for an episode!

1. Did you read Twilight before you got the part as Carlisle, or had you even heard of the series?

2. What scene are looking forward to acting out most from the book?

3. What do you think will be the biggest challenge playing the character Carlisle?

4. Will you acting with a British accent in the movie at all?

Thanks again! You are GREAT!

Congratulations! My daughter thinks you look like Tom Cruise in some of the pictures she has seen on Twilight sites. One question: how does it all work getting the role of Carlile in a movie like Twilight? I'm not too savy about the processes.

I'm so glad you said that about Twilight. So many people that haven't read the book, think it's just another vampire book, but it's so much more than that, it's a love story. So glad you're playing Carlisle. Have you read the other 2 books? How are you liking Oregon?

I'm so excited to see you in the role of Carlisle!! I know there is a lot out there with some people not happy about the casting choices - but to so many of us you are all wonderful and we (especially at Twilightmoms.com) are SO excited. They also told us how nice you are when they met you which makes it even better knowing that we have great people playing the parts. Please let everyone you are working with know how much we love them and we're excited to see the movie!!

I am very excited to see you in the role of Carlisle, he is one of my favorite characters in the books... Oh, who am I kidding, everyone is one of my favorites! But really... I think you are perfect for the role. And how lucky were you to be able to meet the Author??? Steph is so kind, and gracious. She is really a wonderful person :)

Well, best of luck in the filming :) I can't wait to see what you look like all vamped out!

Congratulations on landing a role in a movie that is sure to be a blockbuster! Well done!
The character of Carlisle Cullen has such depth. He's seen centuries pass, has a rock steady moral compass that defies logic, an abiding and unmoving love for Esme... What about this character most intrigues you? And what will you do personally to help you prepare for the character?

LOVE The series... I am a Twilight Mom... Wanted to say Good-luck.. am a big fan ever since Can't Hardle Wait... saw your wife on Chelsea Lately, big fan of hers too... Can't wait for the movie! As far as questions go, are you a fan of vampire movies in general or did you just see this as a great oppertunity? I honestly believe this movie is going to skyrocket and this could do for the the stars what Lord of The Rings did for Orlando Bloom. Good luck

Hy!!I just wanted to say that i'm a big fan of Twilight and i can't wait to see the movie!!You being in it is a big plus, because i'm sure you will do a great job!!
Please keep in mind that Twilight fans pay close atention to every little detail regarding this subject, even if it's hair color, the way you move or your accent(please tell that to cast, as well)!!So if you want to make the fans happy just follow what the book says!!:D :D
I just wanted to ask if have read all three books and what do you think about the rest of the cast?Do they fit the part and how are they as persons?
Thanks
Good luck
Can't wait for news

p.s I hope i didn't upset you with the details thing!!It's just an advice:)

HI Peter! I am a TwilightMom, and thought it was so sweet of you guys to take some pics with the fans earlier this week! I also happen to be one of the hosts of Twilight Series Theories! We have a ton of questions, mainly due to our fans constantly email them to us, and not any opportunity to ask them...until now! So, take your pick...

How do you like being a blonde?

Are you all getting along on the set? Who do you find yourself clicking with?

When you met Stephenie last week, did she give you any tips about Carlisle's character? Anything you can share?

If you have read all of the books, are you personally pulling for Edward or Jacob?

Has your wife read the books? And does she love it that you are playing Carlisle?

OK, this is just a few questions, we don't want to bombard you! You must be busy! If you have the time, come check us out, and listen, at twilightseriestheories.com

Thank you!

You are BEYOND adorable and I can't wait to see the whole "coven" in the film. Enjoy your time in Oregon/Washington. I am one of the "Twilight Moms" who wishes I lived close enough to check everything out while this is being filmed. Will you be MY doctor???? I probably would actually GO if you were!

Here is a question: Is Jasper really going to wear that horrid wig?

Thanks!

1.Do you know if there are any characters that won't be making their way into the film?
2.Have you or the other actors involved signed multiple picture deals or would you be willing to come back if the whole franchise is filmed?
3. Were you a fan of the books previous to accepting the role?
4. Do you currently have a favorite character or scene that you look forward to filming in either Twilight or it's sequels?
5. Other than her on set visit do you know if Stephenie Meyer will be collaborating in any other ways with the director or with any other part of the film?
6. Will we possibly be able to hear at least one song in the film that Stephenie Meyer chose for her own personal soundtrack to the novel?

Good luck! I wish you all the best during filming :)

Peter,

Thank you for being part of Twilight. I was honestly scared at first that the actors cast might be "B" actors and you are definitely an "A". This, along with the knowledge of the rest of the cast, makes me very happy. I think you are going to do a great job, the way you supported Jenny on Dancing with the Stars is exactly a Carlisle trait, family first. She is a very lucky girl!

Please fell free to ask your fans questions, most of us know the books perhaps too well. I'm glad that you have read them, it does make a difference to us fans, we want you to be a fan too and knowing you have read and recommend them is great!

All the best,
Charise (a Twilight Mom)

Hi Peter
Another Twilight Mom here. You all are awesome for allowing the girls photo ops the other day. So kind. I hope filming goes well for everyone and is not too tiring, I can only imagine how long the days can be. In the end the fans will be happy with everyone involved. I have to thank my niece for involving me in the Twilight hoopla otherwise I'd have no idea. She and I want to see the movie together but she and I live in diffirent states so it's not possible but I told her I'd be thinking of her and she could be thinking of me. How is the preparation going. Filming begins soon doesn't it? Well I wish you all the best of luck and I'm glad you'll be Carlisle. I pictured him very handsome and distinguished and you definately have that quality about you. Best wishes to you and the whole cast. Maybe in Breaking Dawn Bella and Edward will go to Dartmouth and filming can be done in New England. Wow! Some real exctement on the East Coast. How exciting. I won't hold my breath. LOL
