Interview with Xavier Samuel, mentions Rob


Australia’s Adelaide Now has a new interview with Xavier, whi will play Riley in Eclipse.
DRESSED in jeans and scuffed boots and climbing out of a beaten-up Ford Falcon, Xavier Samuel looked like any other young bloke when he turned up for his city hair appointment on Thursday.
That was only because the hordes of teenage girls who have been following his every move on the internet for the past few months were nowhere to be seen – they didn’t even know he was in town.
International paparazzi have hounded the former Adelaide drama student since he landed a role in the third Twilight movie, Eclipse, which completed filming in Canada two months ago.
Due to be released next June, the film, which also stars Twilight leads Kristen Stewart and heart-throb Robert Pattinson, is set to make Samuel, 25, a major Hollywood star.
This week he was enjoying some downtime in his home town, where he caught up with mates at Rundle St spots The Exeter and Sugar nightclub, before spending Christmas relaxing with his mum Maree and dad Clifford, brother Benedict, 21, and sister Bridget, 28.
“It’s a bizarre thing, the whole celebrity phenomenon,” Samuel told the Sunday Mail.
“But to see it in action is another thing. It’s a little strange having someone follow you to get a coffee.
“I wasn’t used to that sort of attention, so I just took it in my stride, I guess.
“I think Robert and Kristen do a really good job in dealing with fans.
“They seem to handle it really well, so if I can take a leaf out of their book I should be OK.

Life in the US has also given Samuel a chance to catch up with fellow Adelaide actor Teresa Palmer, a former castmate from the local indy film 2:37.
“Teresa and I actually spent Halloween in LA together,” he said.
“It was my first Halloween and I went as a Canadian because I just came back from Vancouver. It just involved me putting on a cap, I didn’t really put a lot of effort in. It was either that or go as a Playboy bunny.”
Samuel may have a celebrity lifestyle, but he certainly doesn’t have a car to match – he bought his canary yellow Falcon with Benedict for just $500.
After the New Year, the two are planning to drive it to Sydney, where Benedict is studying at the National Institute of Dramatic Arts.
“The car only has a tape deck, so that’s what we’ve been asking everyone for Christmas – car tapes,” he laughed.
“We were listening to a fair bit of ’50s rock and roll on the way here.”
Meanwhile, Samuel has an obvious tip for Twilight fans wanting the inside scoop on the new film: “If you want to know what happens in the movie, just read the book.”

Adelaide Now har en ny intervju med Xavier, kommer whi spela Riley i Eclipse.

Klädd i jeans och skråmat stövlar och klättrar ut ur en misshandlad-up Ford Falcon, såg Xavier Samuel som vilken annan ung kille när han dök upp för sin stad hår utnämningen på torsdag.

Det är endast för att horder av tonårsflickor som har följt hans varje rörelse på internet för de senaste månaderna har synts till - att de inte ens visste att han var i stan.

Internationella paparazzi har förföljts fd Adelaide drama student sedan han landade en roll i den tredje filmen Twilight, Eclipse, som slutförde inspelningen i Kanada för två månader sedan.

Kommer att släppas i juni nästa år, filmen, som också stars Twilight leder Kristen Stewart och hjärt-dunka Robert Pattinson, är satt att göra Samuel, 25, en stor Hollywood-stjärna.

Denna vecka var han uppvisar vissa driftstopp i sin hemstad, där han ikapp med kompisar på Rundle St fläckar Den Exeter och socker nattklubb, innan utgifterna avkopplande jul med sin mamma Maree och pappa Clifford, broder Benedict, 21, och syster Birgitta, 28 .

"Det är en bisarr sak, hela kändis fenomen, säger Samuel Sunday Mail.

Men för att se den i aktion är en annan sak. Det är lite konstigt att ha någon som följer dig att få en kopp kaffe.

"Jag var inte van vid den sortens uppmärksamhet, så jag bara tog den i mina steg, antar jag.

"Jag tror att Robert och Kristen göra ett riktigt bra jobb i hanteringen av fans.

"De verkar hantera det riktigt bra, så om jag kan ta ett blad ur sin bok Jag skulle vara OK."

Livet i USA har också gett Samuel en chans att komma ikapp med andra Adelaide skådespelare Teresa Palmer, en före detta castmate från den lokala Indy filmen 2:37.

"Teresa och jag verkligen varit Halloween i LA tillsammans, sade han.

"Det var min första Halloween och jag gick som en kanadensisk eftersom jag just kommit tillbaka från Vancouver. Det bara är involverade jag sätta på en mössa, jag har inte riktigt lagt ner mycket arbete i. Det var antingen det eller gå som en Playboy bunny. "

Samuel kan ha en kändis livsstil, men han säkerligen inte har en bil till match - han köpte sin kanariefågel gula Falcon med Benedict för bara $ 500.

Efter nyår är de två planerar att köra det till Sydney, där Benedikt studerar vid National Institute of Dramatic Arts.

"Bilen har bara en bandspelare, så det är vad vi har frågat alla för julen - bil band, skrattar han.

"Vi fick lyssna till en rättvis lite '50s rock and roll på vägen hit."

Samtidigt har Samuel en uppenbar tips för Twilight fans vill insidan nyheterna om den nya filmen: "Om du vill veta vad som händer i filmen, bara läst boken."

Nikki Reed Talks About Rob and Eclipse


SNMag: What do you think about the Rob Pat­tin­son craze?
NR: I get it. Rob is a totally fas­ci­nat­ing, amaz­ing, won­der­ful guy. I get why all these girls are so in love with him. He’s super intel­li­gent, mys­te­ri­ous, musi­cal and intel­lec­tual. I get it.


SNMag: How do you guys spend your free time when you’re shoot­ing?
NR: We get cre­ative and make silly mini movies and do awe­some stuff like that. Other times we just lay around and watch tele­vi­sion. There are a lot of music nights because Xavier [Samuel], Rob and Jack­son [Rath­bone] are very musi­cal. We eat a lot of Thai food. There’s a Thai food place close by. We hang out with each other because we’re very isolated.

Teen Vogue: Xavier Samuel: Twilight's New Vampire



















When Xavier Samuel arrived in Vancouver last summer, he didn't make it far past baggage claim before he started making headlines. With just a few offbeat Australian flicks under his belt, the sandy-haired 26-year-old had been chosen to play newborn vampire Riley, the latest heartthrob in The Twilight Saga. Almost instantaneously he was being hailed as Robert Pattinson's doppelgänger and couldn't get coffee without seeing flashbulbs.

"It was all very sudden, not just with the paparazzi but also with being cast in general," says Xavier, who's been acting since high school. "I did an audition from Sydney on tape. Then I got word that it was down to four guys—and that I was one of them." (Rumor has it he beat out Channing Tatum and Harry Potter's Tom Felton for the part.)

But the role of Riley was a perfect fit—and Xavier had a blast hanging out on the set of Eclipse. An indie-rock aficionado who has recently been digging The Magnetic Fields and The xx, Xavier joined in on periodic jam sessions with fellow guitarists Robert and Jackson Rathbone. (Xavier travels everywhere with his old Yamaha C-40.) And he bonded with Bryce Dallas Howard—his on-screen love interest, vampire trainer Victoria—who thought she was helping him get acclimated with stateside pop culture when she bought him a DVD box set of Lost. "People think that there's, like, one public phone in Australia and that we all ride kangaroos to work," the Adelaide native jokes. "They're surprised we do actually get American TV and things there."

After a few months of couch surfing in Los Angeles post-Eclipse, Xavier took off for Berlin, where he's been filming the Roland Emmerich–directed Anonymous, an Elizabethan thriller that contests the authorship of Shakespeare's plays. "It's been lots of tights, pantaloons, and riding around on horses—definitely a change of speed," he says. "To go from Stephenie Meyer to Shakespeare? You can't really make a bigger jump than that."
