Twilight star Ashley Greene was on the verge of heading back to Florida until she landed the Alice Cullen role and her life has changed dramatically. Her New Moon costar Michael Sheen (Aro Volturri) quizzed her for Interview Magazine on what it’s like to be part of this huge franchise:

SHEEN: Now there’s so much more to this whole Twilight thing than just the films, isn’t there? There’s everything that goes with it—it’s a huge sort of phenomenon. What’s it like being right at the epicenter of that whole thing?

GREENE: [sighs] It’s a really hard thing to wrap your head around. I was working at a restaurant, I booked the role in Twilight, put in my two weeks’ notice, got fitted, flew to Portland, filmed, and then it started getting hype. That helped me get my foot into certain doors before the movie even came out. I did four independent films during the break between Twilight [2008] and New Moon. I haven’t even really had time to sit back and process it all. But when you do finally sit back and think about it, it’s incredible.

The actress has lots of movies coming up: Skateland will show at the Sundance Film Festival in January and she has just found her leading man, Sebastian Stan, for the upcoming flick Apparition. Check out the rest of the interview - Sheen is quite funny with his questions.

Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene were in San Fransisco at Nordstrom & Hot Topic stores to sign autographs and meet fans. The Twilight Saga: New Moon stars were all smiles as they faced the crowds and looked fabulous too! As if either of those two hotties would look anything but gorgeous.

Being a part of The Twilight Saga movies, Ashley Greene standouts as the quirky and fun Alice Cullen. With the second installment New Moon, releasing in November, Greene’s character will have more to do and more chances to shine. In her first cover shoot ever, Greene sits down with Saturday Night Magazine and talks about the fans of Twilight, the long process of getting the role of Alice, and what she does to relax.

When you’re not filming, what do you do for fun?
I definitely try to make it home. I actually have my family fly out, and I have a couple of Florida friends fly out sometimes, and then I have a best friend or two in L.A. I just try hanging out and spending time with my friends – I try and live a normal lifestyle.

What would be your ideal Saturday night?
Me and my friends are really big on doing game nights. We just grab a couple of games and sometimes we order in or sometimes we just get a bunch of cheese and crackers and stuff like that or cook dinner, and just hang out and play games.

The actress talks about reuniting with her cast mates in Vancouver and how she became closer to Kristen Stewart while filming New Moon as their schedules were similar, allowing the two to get to know each other better. Read the rest of the interview and see all the great photos here.

In the upcoming release of the second film in The Twilight Saga, some characters with limited screen time will see their roles expanded. One fan favorite from the books was Jasper Hale, played by Jackson Rathbone, and he had a very small part in the first movie. That’s about to change. In New Moon and the now-filming third installment, Eclipse, Rathbone will have a chance to give depth to his Civil War Era human-turned-mood-altering-vampire.

“I’ve been studying up a lot on the Civil War and that era; it really was a crazy time, it was all-out war on our own turf and between countrymen,” Jackson told MTV News. “It’s an interesting time to see when Jasper was actually human, and what his human form was, and when he gets turned how intense and how dark he is. Then [we'll see] his realization of what he’s become, him finding Alice and being redeemed by love.”

In Eclipse, the Cullen family needs a leader and Jasper steps up to the plate to deliver the fighting techniques they’ll need to defeat Victoria’s army of blood thirsty newborns. Rathbone is given more substance to work with in the coming films and says that fans will get to see Jasper work his emotion calming magic in a school scene in New Moon. Jasper happens to be the character I like most and I’m looking forward to Jackson having more scenes in the next two flicks.

New pictures are surfacing of Kristen Stewart and her co-star Billy Burke (who plays her dad, Chief Swan) as they film the graduation scene in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. This is the pivotal point in the books where Bella (Stewart) figures out that Victoria (now played by Bryce Dallas Howard) is the one behind the newborn vampire army and is aiming for her. In the book, Edward and Alice Cullen (Robert Pattinson and Ashley Greene) are also part of the ceremonies. As of yet no photos of Pattinson or Greene working this scene. I hope we get to see a shot or two of Edward (Robert) in the back of Chief Swan’s squad car - funny!

Kristen is back with her Bella-length hair. The actress needed extentions after she cut her hair for her film The Runaways (with Dakota Fanning) where she portrayed Joan Jett. I kinda miss her mullet-y ‘do. It really did look good on her.

Actress Ashley Greene (Alice) confessed to have a secret crush on her on-screen lover Jackson Rathbone, who plays Jasper Hale in the Twilight Saga.

Ashley said, “I’m glad I don’t have a boyfriend. It’d be hard to tell him, ‘I have a crush on Jackson Rathbone!’”

Can Ashley and Jackson be the new Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart? We doubt it, but Alice and Jasper do make a super cute vampire couple.

Ashley Greene appeared on MTV’s new show It’s On With Alexa Chung and wore a cute pair of high-waisted leather shorts to the interview. The Twilight & New Moon star was in New York City rockin’ the short shorts with seriously sexy shoes. What do you think of her look?

With ‘The Twilight Saga: New Moon’  hitting theaters November 20th, is it any wonder there hasn’t been a complete make-up introduced yet? Well, wait no more. Twilight Beauty is the creation of Cristina Bartolucci, founder of DuWop Brand cosmetics and the formulas to be sold, will also be worn on screen by the cast.

Two collections will be available LunaTwilight and Volturi. For Luna - the color palettes will be Bella, Rosalie, Alice and Victoria (why Victoria? why not Esme?) Volturi will have Immortal Body Shimmer and Deity Body Lotion.

The collection will be sold exclusively thru TwilightBeauty.com (which is not live as of yet,) and no exact date on when you can purchase the products. We will keep you up to date! It’s marketing genius!
