Twilighters, ask yourself this: If you can't yet have Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart living and breathing up on the big screen in "New Moon," would you take some larger-than-life stills from their November 20 sequel?
Summit Entertainment is betting you will, which is why the studio released three brand-new outdoor banners that feature Pattinson's Edward Cullen, Stewart's Bella Swan, Taylor Lautner's Jacob Black and other key players from the "Twilight" universe.
One poster focuses on an embrace between Edward and Bella. In the background are other vampires from the Forks, Washington, area, including Alice Cullen (Ashley Greene), Rosalie Hale (Nikki Reed), Jasper Hale (Jackson Rathbone), Emmett Cullen (Kellan Lutz), Dr. Carlisle Cullen (Peter Facinelli) and Esme Cullen (Elizabeth Reaser).
The Volturi, those ruthless bloodsuckers who have become something of a royal governing authority in the vampire world and who make their big-screen debut in "New Moon," get their own poster. Standing front and center is Jane (Dakota Fanning), innocent-looking yet absolutely deadly. Her special ability is to inflict devastating pain on others using only her thoughts. Behind Jane stands Aro (Michael Sheen), the founder of the Volturi, who can read a person's thoughts simply by touching them. Encircling these two are Caius (Jamie Campbell Bower), Marcus (Christopher Heyerdahl) and Jane's brother Alec (Cameron Bright). The background calls to mind the ancient Italian city of Volterra, where the coven resides.
The third poster presents the wolf pack of Northwest Native Americans. The focus, obviously, is on Lautner, showing off his shoulder tattoo and jacked-up musculature. Hovering in the hazy woods behind him are Sam Uley (Chaske Spencer), Embry Call (Kiowa Gordon), Paul (Alex Meraz) and Jared (Bronson Pelletier).
We're told the posters will primarily be used for outdoor bus shelters and other spots, primarily in New York and Los Angeles, that feature outdoor posters. There's no word on the exact locations of the posters, so for now you'll just have to soak it all in on the Web.
