“Twilight” fans must be having a blast right now, what with the many details coming their way on the much-anticipated sequel “New Moon.” Following the release of the official poster (more or less the way Summit wanted it to take place) and several interviews on the plot of the film, just released on-set photos from Italy show main stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart sharing their first passionate kiss and embrace, as Twilight Source can confirm.

As it’s already known, lovers Bella and Edward spend most of “New Moon” apart – which only makes the prospect of their reunion all the more appealing. In this sense, the photos that have just made their way on the Internet seem to prove, beyond any trace of doubt that, when Edward gets to hold Bella again, there will be few dry eyes left in the house. Add to this that Pattinson is also revealing his six-pack and strong arms in the same scene, and anyone can understand why he’s so popular with a certain segment (a very large one as well) of the population.

The photos also show Pattinson with black dots on his face and arms, which are CGI markers that will be used in post-production for several enhancements, the same source says. Still, from what the photos reveal, this scene will probably turn to be a major tearjerker even without anything added in the editing room afterwards, several fan-run e-zines point out, including TS and Twilight Lexicon, two of the biggest communities dedicated exclusively to “Twilight.”

As we also wrote the other day, the entire “New Moon” cast moved to Italy to continue shooting scenes for the film. At the same time, reports in the media have it that many of the actors have concluded their parts for the film, which means the highly anticipated sequel is nearing completion, just in time to go in the studio for post-production work ahead of the November release.

Speaking of release, fans should keep an eye out for this year’s MTV Movie Awards ceremony, since sources claim that it is then that they will be shown the first footage from “New Moon” – one minute of completed footage, special effects and music included. What’s more, Robert Pattinson himself is said to take the stage with co-stars Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner to introduce the short – but much welcome – clip, so stay tuned here for more details on this, perhaps even an official announcement from MTV or Summit Entertainment.
