Call it the Invasion of the (Wrist)Band-Snatchers.
All those hundreds of people camping outside the Nokia Theatre in downtown Los Angeles aren’t out-of-work victims of the ongoing economic Recession.
Instead, they’re Twilight aficionados, waiting for the chance to get one of 9,000 wristbands allowing them into the fan area for the world premiere of David Slade’s The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, starring Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner. The Eclipse premiere will take place on Thursday evening.
Also in the Eclipse cast: Bryce Dallas Howard, Kellan Lutz, Xavier Samuel, Dakota Fanning, Peter Facinelli, Nikki Reed, Jackson Rathbone, Ashley Greene, Elizabeth Reaser, Billy Burke, Daniel Cudmore, Anna Kendrick, and Jodelle Ferland.
In addition to: Charlie Bewley, Gil Birmingham, Kirsten Prout, Sarah Clarke, Christian Serratos, Chaske Spencer, Booboo Stewart, Julia Jones, Michael Welch, Kiowa Gordon, Bronson Pelletier, Alex Meraz, Tyson Houseman, Cameron Bright, and Catalina Sandino Moreno.
Melissa Rosenberg adapted Stephenie Meyer’s bestselling novel.
The third installment in the Twilight franchise, a Summit Entertainment release, will open in the United States and a number of other countries on June 30.
