Back in May, the first official trailer of “New Moon,” the follow-up to the highly successful “Twilight,” was premiered at the MTV Movie Awards. More material has been released since then, but that’s not to say there is no longer room for surprises anymore. A new, extended trailer for the film will be aired on September 13 during the MTV Video Music Awards, with Pattinson, Stewart and Lautner doing the honors, as MTV confirms.

The awards ceremony will be packed full of surprises, from Beyonce and Lady Gaga performances to appearances that will be kept under wraps until the very day it airs live on MTV. However, for “Twilight” fans, the most welcome and pleasant surprise is that unseen footage from the film will air on the occasion. And, if that’s not enough to send fans into a frenzy, the film’s trio, Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner, will also grace the stage with their presence to present the video / trailer.

“‘Twilight’ stars Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner will appear on the show to debut an exclusive expanded trailer for ‘New Moon,’ the second film in Summit Entertainment’s vampire saga. We’ll repeat that slowly for you: Fresh ‘New Moon’ footage. Pattinson. Stewart. Lautner. Boom!” MTV proudly announces. Given the soaring popularity of these three actors and of the film franchise in general, it’s no wonder the statement is made with whistles and horns.

There’s even more: the VMAs being a music-related event, MTV will also represent just the venue to premiere the first song off the “New Moon” music score. “The 26th annual VMAs are shaping up to be another bonanza for devoted Twilighters. On the day of the show, MTV.com will debut the first single off the ‘New Moon’ soundtrack, the Death Cab for Cutie tune ‘Meet Me on the Equinox.’ Based the second book in Stephenie Meyer's supernatural series, ‘New Moon’ is set for release on November 20, while the soundtrack drops on October 20.” MTV says.

As the release date is drawing near, more and more details and goodies are bound to come the way of the fans. In the meanwhile, though, they’re to brace themselves for an over-a-week-long wait until the MTV Video Music Awards. For more details on this, do keep an eye on this space.
