Twilight Lexicon has a two-part interview with Twilight: New Moon’s blood-thirsty Volturi vampire Marcus. They caught up with him at the Creation Entertainment Official Twilight Convention, and this is what they have to say:

We had the chance to interview Chris Heyerdahl at the Creation Entertainment Official Twilight Convention in Miami. Chris was nursing a hoarse voice in a really chilly room as you can see from his down vest and cup of tea…

L: Had you read Twilight before you got the offer?

C: I’d read Twilight. I hadn’t read New Moon.

L: So what drew you to take this part? To take a part in this series?

C: Being asked! My niece is a big fan and still is a big fan. Actually we went – I took her and her sister and my mother to see New Moon on her birthday. My birthday gift to my eldest niece.
