Vancouver Prepares for Vampires Return

The Vancouver Sun seems to be smitten with the idea of the vampires trek back to their area to film the the third installment in the Twilight Saga. According to their story, the cast will be back in town, and begin shooting August, 17th. Ofcourse, the first thing to enter my mind was,"This gives me 7 days to get there and stalk my favorite brit before school starts." While that may not have been my exact thoughts I am sure it is the thoughts of many fangirls residing on the west coast that can get there in a moments time.

I am very excited to start receiving spoilers from the set and hear about the diehards that are living the, err my, dream of stalking out the Cullen family whilest the rest of us are living our responsible adult like lives.

Here is the story from the Sun:

Twilight stars set to eclipse Vancouver
Canwest News ServiceJuly 31, 2009

Twihards around the world are turning their gazes back to Vancouver as Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and the Twilight team return to Vancouver on Aug. 17 to shoot Eclipse.

Pattinson spent the summer on the French Riviera at Cannes, then in New York City shooting the teary romance Remember Me with Lost hottie Emilie de Ravin. Meanwhile Stewart shot the Joan Jett biopic, The Runaways, in Los Angeles this summer.

But the moody climes of southwest British Columbia are beckoning the duo back to roam the rainforests and urban alleys to shoot the third of Stephenie Meyers' wildly popular Twilight series. (The second in the series, New Moon, opens this fall.)

Twifans want to know: Where in and around Vancouver are the stars going to land? What locations will host the vampires' lusty adventures and his prey's tremulous urges?

Naturally, location managers shy away from revealing to the media, as well as devotees, where they will shoot scenes in public places.

Eclipse locales will be guarded as closely as the Crown Jewels, because once word gets out, those sites will be swarmed with you know who.

It's a lot easier to find out where they WON'T be shooting when production begins.

Someone tweeting under the name of director David Slade has posted a couple of messages on Twitter.

One stated: "A long day of scouting, found Newborn hideout and battlefield finally." And another contained images of two sites allegedly rejected by Slade.
