Exclusive: 'Twilight's' Kellan Lutz wants to do two 'Breaking Dawn' movies
If you're psyched about the prospect of a two-part "Breaking Dawn," you're not alone.
"They haven't told the rest of us actors yet," he confided exclusively to The Dish Rag at the Hollywood Foreign Press Young Hollywood party last night at Nobu.
"I have read that they are talking to Rob, Taylor and Kristen to negotiate to make 'Dawn' into two movies. I'd love for it to be two films," he added.

How about that "Twilight" TV series rumor? "I just heard that too.
I don't know how. You already have the books and the story's been told
so beautifully. And there's already 'True Blood' and 'Vampire Diaries,'
and they're both great. I don't know how it would work. Twenty two
episodes?
And are you listening, Matt Damon? Because Kellan Lutz seriously wants to bro up with you in your "Bourne" action film franchise.

"I'm making this checklist as an actor," he confided. "Right now I just really want to be part of the Bourne franchise and the more I say that, maybe Matt Damon will read it and it and maybe I can play his brother."
We could totally see that. They even look a bit alike.
And on the heels of his co-star Taylor Lautner's move into the teen superhero flick, "Max Steel," Kellan wouldn't mind some super powers himself very soon. "I'd love to be 'Captain America' someday."
He's not sure exactly what his next project will be yet. And its too early to talk specifics. But it's definitely going to in the action or romantic comedy genre. And what else did we learn during our chat with Kellan:
Broad strokes about his upcoming projects
"They're are going to studios to get the funding, and there's one I will produce. Most are action films and a couple of romantic comedies and I'm just thrilled with all the scripts."
On "Twilight" being his Golden Ticket
"People work 20 years to get what we have," Kellan admits. "We really are so lucky. Its like you get a headstart and its all because of the fans. And it's not just about money or getting offers, it's that we can mold our careers."

On attributing "Twilight" franchise success to Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart
"The rest of us, we could suck probably," Kellan says. "It's Rob and Kristen who have the amazing chemistry. Without those two keystones, "Twilight" could have flopped. It really could have."
What do you think? Is it all Rob and Kristen?

Kellan looks nothing like Damon. Kellan is attractive.
I doubt Matt Damon dosent hear
of the young guy.
Yes, It is absolutely Rob and Kristen. Twilight wasn't even a good movie. The reason so many of us liked it is because of their chemistry. It got me to read the books and I truly believe the only reason this has become a phenomenon is because of these two actor's chemistry.
Because when I think, "What franchise is like Kill Bill?" I think, "Yup, Twilight."
Kristen is most of the franchise other then the horrible screeming/moaning in the poor me sequence. I would have been more then happy if they had replaced Rob. He has no chemistry with Kristen and is a wet rag of the worst kind. And then they wanted to replace Taylor...give me break. I am hoping to get lucky with Rob getting greedy or something and not being in the next movie. That would be perfect since his acting sucks.
Rob is the #1 reason why Twilight is a success! He has a raw talant that you don't see come along very often. He's the total package!
He's got it right! Don't really care for the books, but Rob & Kristen got me into the saga. Twilight was a teeny bopper movie, but those two on-screen drew me in and kept me wanting more.
It's not just Rob & Kristen's chemistry; it's also the story of Twilight - its originality. And you can say whatever you want about Catherine Hardwicke & her movie Twilight, but remember that if it wasn't for her, twilight as we know it would not have been made, & Rob Pattinson would not have been rediscovered.
Yes, it's definitely their chemistry that makes the series. That's what makes it watchable, because they are incredible together. Doesn't hurt that hardly anyone else has any lines, especially the Cullen family! So of course it rests on Robsten :)
well said KELLAN!!! The main reason we got into it in the 1st place even w/out reading the book beforehand is the Chemistry between rob and kristen..Otherwise if it was just some random guy who looks hotter than rob but no chemistry with kristen it wouldn't be the biggest teeny bopper movie of all time.
