While his sci-fi flick Pandorum is currently playing in theaters, Cam Gigandet went right back to filming on the set of Priest. The actor is playing a good guy this time around on a mission to save the girl he loves with Paul Bettany as the title character. Speaking to MTV, Gigandet mentions that he has really taken to riding motorcycles:

“Then I finally got to ride my motorcycle on set, and it is a huge beast of a motorcycle. It’s one of the coolest motorcycles, and Priest [Bettany] is on a motorcycle as well, and we get to ride in the middle of the desert on salt flats—it [looks] like those Chevy commercials.”

“We get to ride in the open plains, just me and him in the middle of nowhere,” Gigandet said of his time with Bettany in the flick, which hits theaters next summer. “It’s probably one of the best feelings in the world.”

This film sounds great! A half-vampire sheriff riding a motorcycle to save the girl. Looking forward to this movie due out August 2010.

Cam Gigandet’s latest film is sci-fi thriller Pandorum, in theaters today, and our favorite Twilight villian gave CinemaBlend.com an interview with lots of good stuff in it.

He is happy to have been a part of the Twilight phenomenon, but is grateful it was only one movie, not all four. Gigandet said:

“…Me, myself, I wasn’t interested in doing that for the rest of my life. It was kind of the perfect balance for that movie.”

For his role in Pandorum, (which is being kept secret because of a plot twist at the end,) the actor was able to work with movie veteran Dennis Quaid and ends up covered in goo for a nude scene which was uncomfortable for Gigandet:

“That was, yeah, one of the worst experiences. It wasn’t just because of the apparent nudity. They had to put this stuff on my body that was similar to what you’d get at an ultrasound. But it’s freezing cold. I couldn’t put a coat on or anything like that, so I just had to stand in this stuff. They built this heater around me, because literally every breeze that would fly through, I would freeze to my very core.”

All in all a pretty good interview with Cam. Check it out in full at CinemaBlend.com.
