Edi Gathegi:New Moon, Stephenie Meyer and many more

The Twilight Examiner had an exclusive interview with Edi Gathegi where he talked about New Moon, Stephenie Meyer, coming back and many more. Here is an excerpt of his interview:

Are you excited for everyone to finally see New Moon?

Edi: I am! I’m very, very excited. I think it’s gonna be pretty awesome. I talked to Taylor the other day, and he’s actualy seeing the final cut right now as we speak. (Oct. 30th)

Have you seen that yet?

Edi: I saw it a month and a half ago, and now it’s the final cut. I didn’t see the final, final cut.

I spoke to Billy Burke a few days ago, and he said that the film came out beautifully.

Edi: Billy Burke is one of my favorite actors from that movie.

Billy also let me in on the secret of him and Rob having an affair going on. It has been amazing they’ve been able to keep it a secret.

Edi: [laughs] I knew about it! Yeah, I saw Rob trying to hypnotize Billy with his eyes. [laughs]

Had you ever heard of the series before auditioning?

Edi: No, I hadn’t. Before my audition, I didn’t know that the books existed. As a matter of fact, I was so thrown off by the material that I didn’t even really want to go to my audition. It was supernatural, so I really didn’t have any interest in that. But when I got the part and read the books, I was so glad that I went into my audition and did a good job. Because it’s more than just a supernatural story. It’s a romance, and it’s beautifully done, too.

Have you become a devoted fan of the books after getting the part?

Edi: I have, I have.
