'New Moon' turns Michael Sheen into a vampire

Michael Sheen plays Italian vampire Aro in Twilight: New Moon.


By Susan Wloszczyna, USA TODAY

If Michael Sheen isn't doing something biographical, chances are it's supernatural.
He has left his mark on the horror genre as Lucian, the leader of the werewolf rebellion against the aristocratic vampires in the Underworld trilogy.

But now he's switching teams as Aro, the head of the Italian vampire cult known as the Volturi in New Moon, the latest big-screen chapter of the Twilight saga that opens Nov. 20.

Why join the bloodsuckers?

"I wanted to see how the other half lived," Sheen explains with a grin. "Or unlived."

Actually, Lily, his 10-year-old daughter with Underworld actress Kate Beckinsale, had something to do with his decision. "She is very, very into the books. I know how obsessive she was about them, so I was already predisposed wanting to be in it."

After he read the first two books himself, Sheen realized why the literary phenom causes teen girls to swoon. "What it has tapped into, at least in the first book, is how it feels to fall in love for the first time. I don't think you have to be a girl to relate to that.

"The second book captures the utter desolation of losing that first love. I went through that myself, and Stephenie Meyer invokes that brilliantly."

So what kind of vamp is Aro? "I suppose the Volturi are like the royal family of vampires, and while he is more their spokesperson in the books, he is their leader in the film. He's got a sort of regality about him.

"I like the way director Chris Weitz describes him. On the surface, he is very charming and very warm, sort of likable and soft. But underneath, you get the sense he is a psychopathic killer. I love playing with that idea."

Chapter 16: With You, Not Against you.

I will now be staying in renesmee's POV until further notice. (: This is taking off of where it left in chapter 15 (Her phone ringing)

"Nessie?" I heard jacob ask, i looked up into his urgent eyes. I carefully slipped out the phone, yet his hands restricted me from pressing anything.

"Jacob, it's just Kalvin" I said lightly "He's no harm, promise".

I felt him hesitate, but then he carefully retracted his hands, freeing my fingers to answer;

"Kalvin?" I took a step away from Jacob, out of habit with a phone call. He immideitly followed, one arm around my waist,...

Thanks so much for the reviews! Here's the long-awaited chapter that I really hope you like, most of the dialogue is from Twilight.



1. New World


MY MOTHER WALKED WITH ME TO THE OUTER WALLS OF THE SANCTUARY. The place that served as my home ever since I was born.

The sanctuary held only one climate -- spring. Always sunny weather, green grass and wildflowers with a crystal clear blue sky. This was what I was accustomed to.

I was wearing my favorite shirt -- sleeveless, white eyelet lace with a carry-on item, a simple parka.

The entrance (and exit) of the sanctuary opened up to a small town called...

As our honeymoon was going on, I decided that I have to make it as a full time entertainment. As I knew for sure, Bella was stubborn and she wasn’t going to give up so easily. But for the first few days I succeeded. We snorkeled we explored the small jungle that ringed the rocky little peak, we visited the parrots that lived in the
canopy on the south end of the island, we watched the sunset from the rocky western cove, we swam with the porpoises. I was glad that we were alone on an island big enough to have some interesting activity every day. But Bella didn’t give that up. When I was kissing...

!!!!!!!!!WARNING!!!!! ONLY FOR ADULTS!!!!!!


She was silent for a long moment. I calmed down. I was acting in the worst way I could - she wasn't the one who ruined everything. That was me.
“I didn’t know what to expect—but I definitely did not expect how… how… just wonderful and perfect it was.” Her voice dropped to a whisper, she looked down on my hands, looking embarrassed. “I mean, I don’t know how it was for you, but it was like that for me.”
She cared about me more, than I deserved. I lifted her chin with my finger and wanted her to meet my gaze. How could she use word ‘perfect’...

I could hear Alice talking to Renesmee up stairs. "You and Jake are the only one's in white."
I waited at the foot of the stairs ringing my hands. I wanted to see her so badly. I fixed my black tie giving myself something to do.
Alice pranced down the stairs ruffling my hair before she walked off. I turned to look at the Cullens when everything got quiet. I turned and looked up at Renesmee.
I couldn't believe what I saw. I closed my eyes for a moment and opened them again to make sure I was seeing right. She looked like Bella. Only she made my heart flutter and chest rise differently.
She...

The Nightmare

I carried Rensemee, we ran to a hill and watched the castle being swallowed up by the flames… Renesmee woke up, “What’s going on?” she whispered, she was still very weak. I felt even closer to her now, now that MY blood ran through her veins, I was literally part of her. “We’re burning the Volturi, go back to sleep.” I whispered, she looked confused, but then sank back to asleep again. Bella came over to stroke her hair,
“She’s been through so much, even more than I, in one month, I think. I don’t remember much of my human life.” Bella murmured , I agree....

This is our take on what happens after breaking dawn! Hope you enjoy! If you have any ideas, we would be very happy for you to tell us about them.

Confessions.

“I have to tell them.” I thought “Today’s the day.” Hesitantly I approached my family, hoping my father, Edward, wouldn’t read my thoughts. My father shifted his eyes and met mine, they turned cold and dark and after a few moments, he grimaced. He did it. “I told you not to.” I thought angrily. My mother, Bella, noticed my expression. She looked at us several times and finally asked, “What is it?” No one answered and...

I'm sure most of you have heard, Stephenie Meyer is publishing a new book, or as she says, novella. You guys are probably asking yourselves why I would want to write an article about this and share the same information. However, the news has caused so much of a hype, not everyone is reading what Stephenie Meyer had said and the complaints from alot of fans encouraged me to write this article and I would like to address some of those issues. So, another semi-rant. Haha

Since 2008, us Twilight fans thought the door to the Twilight world would be sealed, or at least be shut for a very long time,...

I step back into the shower, thoughts racing through my head. I suddenly notice the water is freezing cold. I scream and leap out of the shower, soaking wet.

I can her Jake running up the stairs. He suddenly punds on the door.

"Ness you okay?" He asks.

"I'm fine, I forgot the water heater was broken. Just go back to cleaning the kitchen." I tell him. As soon as he is gone, I grab my towel and dart to our bedroom. I slip on my sweat pants and a big tee-shirt.

The door opens and Jake walks into the room.

"Hey." I say as I flop down onto the bed.

"You really should pay more...
