Twilight premiere
See the stars light the red carpet for the premiere of teen vampire flick: Twilight
Teenage vampire love drama Twilight premieres at the Odeon Cinema in Leicester
Square on Friday 12th December 2008.
We all know the story: Sweet troubled girl meets hot troubled boy as she starts high school and they fall in love. This time though, he's a vampire and hasn't aged since 1918 so he's, like, over a hundred years old.
Kristen Stuart (presented MTV Video Music Awards 2008) is Bella Star who falls for blood starved Edward Cullen played by Robert Pattinson (Cedric Diggory in the Harry Potter films). Billy Burke (who plays Gary Matheson in the 24 series and Alex Lesman in three Gilmore Girls episodes) is the not-so-nice Charlie Swan who comes between them.
The tag line: Forever. Begins. Now.
Unless you have a ticket for the premiere, you will be watching those who do walk the red carpet. It's a chance to see any of the cast and crew that you like and gawp at their outfits. Nobody knows who will turn up, so it's a bit of a lottery. The film is out on general release on December 19th.
You're advised to arrive in the afternoon to secure a spot, but if you find you
have time on your hands then there's plenty of free stuff to do in the
area such as The National Gallery and Covent Garden.
