Today the Los Angeles Times gives us an interview with Edi Gathegi for the countdown. 22 Days left....nbspAt first Edi Gathegi wasnt jonesing to play a vampire. The 29yearold actor portraying Laurent tells us that in fact it wasnt clear to him that he was auditioning to play one of the nomad vampires in the bigscreen adaption of Stephenie Meyers hit novel Twilight. I just remember having to read some very strange things to director Catherine Hardwicke he says. I wasnt sold until I read the book itself. But now Gathegi is hooked. He talks to us about channeling his inner bloodsucker getting to meet Meyer and which of the Twilight books is his favorite. Yes its true. Hes read all four! Howd you get involved with the movie?A casting director who Ive worked with suggested I audition but I didnt know what the story was or that I was a vampire.
