Justin Chon says get ready for “darker” Eclipse

Justin Chon (The Twilight Saga’s Eric Yorkie) chatted with E! Online’s Marc Malkin about David Slade, the Eclipse set, and the increased security on the set (especially when it comes to Rob Pattinson).

Twilight star Justin Chon tells me that director David Slade’s Eclipse isn’t exactly taking his lead from Catherine Hardwick or Chris Weitz.

“He’s done pretty dark films so that’s where I see [Eclipse] really gravitating towards—more of a dark kind of moody film,” Chon said yesterday at BAFTA’s pre-Emmy tea party. “Just shooting the scenes that I’m in, the mood is definitely different.”

How so? Read on for more…

“David is very set on how he wants this movie to be portrayed,” Chon said. “It’s a lot more refined and maybe not as loose as the last two—at least for us humans. I can only imagine what he’s doing with everyone else.”

Chon also confirmed reports that Robert Pattinson has been living in a house rather than the usual hotel during filming in Vancouver, Canada.

“Security has been increased a lot,” Chon said. “They’re a lot more protective…If Rob was to go out in public without anybody, I think it could be pretty dangerous.”

Even so, Pattz is dealing with the attention well. “It takes him a lot more time to get in and out of places,” Chon said. “But he doesn’t get angry. He’s handling things great.”

    I just new that this would happen. Ever since I heard David Slade was going to direct Eclipse, I new he would try to make it one of "his" films. Okay it's nice that he twitters us all these updates, and I understand that Eclipse is a darker book, than the previous two...but please do NOT ruin our beloved saga by trying to make it too dark! Maybe he wants to attract more boys or something....but I really really really hope he does not try to make it into another Thirty Days of Night! I don't want my Eclipse to be dark and depressing!!!! It's about a love triangle for crying out loud!
