14 DAY TRIAL // “Twilight” fans experiencing a bad case of déjà-vu should not worry: replicating the move at last year’s MTV Movie Awards, the three main stars of the movie will present a brand-new, never-before-seen scene from the upcoming “Eclipse” at this year’s awards ceremony. Not only that, but Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner will walk on the stage together to do so, E! Online can confirm.
Let the screaming begin and the counting down start. As we were also telling you in May 2009, including an exclusive clip from the film in the MTV awards ceremony is very smart marketing from Summit Entertainment, which thus ensures that interest in the film remains at the highest quotas possible. Moreover, getting the three stars on stage to introduce the footage is even better promotion, especially since they’re only seen together when putting in this kind of appearances.
“It’s official. Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner will be at the upcoming MTV Movie Awards in L.A. Not only will they be showing their faces, but... The trio will once again hit the stage together to introduce a never-before-seen scene from Eclipse. They did the same for New Moon at last year’s Movie Awards and MTV’s Video Music Awards in September. The first Twilight flick swept last year’s Movie Awards with wins for best movie, best female performance, breakthrough performance (male), best kiss and best fight, and this year New Moon is nominated in five categories,” E! writes.
“No word yet if they’ll be walking the red carpet or sitting together in the audience. Hosted by funnyman Aziz Ansari, MTV’s golden popcorn trophies will be handed out during a live telecast on June 6 from the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City, Calif. Previously announced presenters include Tom Cruise, Cameron Diaz, Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens, Jonah Hill, Jessica Biel, Anna Kendrick, Olympian Shaun White and Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs,” the same media outlet reports.
With the ceremony taking place on June 6 and confirmation of the premiere of a new “Eclipse” clip out there, fans should expect to see said clip online on sites like YouTube within minutes. Of course, those who can exercise a bit more patience can wait to see the film in its entirety: “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse” is scheduled for theatrical release on June 30.
