Bryce Dallas Howard on Victoria

48 Comments December 14, 2009 by TeamSpaceHeaters Filed Under: Bryce Dallas Howard

Bryce Dallas Howard gives an interview to MTV where she talks about getting the role of Victoria and the continuity of the character.

I had already read the books. I had actually seen ‘Twilight’ several times, much to my husband’s chagrin,” Howard told MTV News while promoting her upcoming release, “The Loss of a Teardrop Diamond.” “Whenever Robert Pattinson would come onscreen, I would grab my husband’s hands and start squeezing,and he’d be like, ‘Stop squeezing my hand!’

The visual continuity of the character of Victoria is really important because such a distinctive character had been created that the fans and the audience had really connected to,” Howard explained. “She’s really described perfectly in the book. So that’s what’s really important to everybody, that there’s an authenticity to bringing these characters to life. It’s not really an interpretation. It’s like a true representation of what’s written on the page, so that’s obviously incredibly important to preserve.

Good morning!! Rachelle did such a wonderful job in atwikight & New Moon. It's hard to p ture anyone else but I'm sure Bryce will be great.

am really excited to see her as victoria, if she was a fan of twilight before then am sure she feel very personate about the movie, and the story…

i love rachelle and her gorgeous hair…but am giving Bryce a chance!!..it wasnt her fault and she shouldn't pay for others mistake!..

I agree! I actually think BDH is a great actress. I understand her not wanting to do Twilight, the first movie, because it wasn't much of a role. I think what people need to understand is that these people are actors and this is a job. I doubt Rob, Kristen and the rest of the cast decided to be in Twilight because they love the books so much. Perhaps now they say they love the books, but the reality is they took the job because it was a job.
So, I don't fault her for making a professional decision the first time round. Though I will miss Rachelle, I think BDH will do just fine.

Im not judging BDH until I see Eclipse but we will miss Rachelle!

I'm really excited to see Bryce as Victoria.

Like I said before Victoria needs to be portrayed as scary. Rachelle did great in Twilight & New Moon, but I didn't find her intimidating or scary in the slightest.

I always thought of Victoria as uniquely beautiful but you get sort of a chill because underneath you know she'll tear you apart with a smile on her face.

lets give her a chance…i think she might be good…but we'll see i wont get too excited before its time…patience is a virtue…and so is caution…lol

I agree. Only Ashley knew the books and loved them before trying to get the role. I don't Bryce one bit for being selective – especially in Hollywood where everyone is doing an indie film which may never see the light of day.

another big whopper from CH and MR, Victoria does not speak until Eclipse, her voice sounds like a bumble gum type voice, Rachelle was Victoria but her voice would had not matched when she spoke. I too wish people would stop giving Bryce a hard time, she wasn't the one who fired Rachelle.

Have you seen Bryce in Lady in the Water? that movie makes no sense but she does seem to cross between scary and pretty.

I think she's going to be great. She has to be. She knows whatt she's dealing with, i mean, it's the twilight saga LOL!

I kind of feel bad for her. I mean, it must be difficult playing a role in the middle of the series. So, i won't judge her either. Rachelle was super great in New Moon, better than in Twilight, i think. I will miss her no matter what.

We should love the both of them.

BFF..your avi is looking smoking HOTT!!…i want it wrapped with a big red bow under my xmas tree!!..lol

am sure you want the same too!!…
http://twitter.com/fortheelove ForTheLove ~Team Mikash

Yeah I did. I like M.Night Shyamalan's movies. Bryce was also in The Village.

I think she will do a great job at looking beautiful yet coolly menacing at the same time.
http://twitter.com/fortheelove ForTheLove ~Team Mikash

I agree. She seems to grasp what fans want for Victoria – what's described in the book, not an interpretation of Victoria.

I'm wholeheartedly giving Bryce a chance. Plus it's not like she's gonna be in BD. Eclipse is Victoria's last stop on the Twi-train.
http://twitter.com/fortheelove ForTheLove ~Team Mikash

That's true about her voice. But WOW, can you imagine the end of Eclipse with Edward rips off Victoria's head. He fights some on Twilight and New Moon, but for Eclipse I think he's gonna look the most dangerous and violent he's ever looked.
lutz_of_love

BFF I haven't talked to you in forever!

Thanks he's in the Christmas spirit with the hat! Oh if Santa would bring us Kellan we would never ask for anything else!
http://twitter.com/fortheelove ForTheLove ~Team Mikash

Can't wait until Edward rips off Victoria's head in the end!!

He fights some on Twilight and New Moon, but for Eclipse I think he's gonna be the most violent he's ever been!

And of course idiot Bella standing up by the boulder with a sharp rock in her hand….silly girl, let Edward and Seth handle it.
Wolfi ♥(TEAM LEAH & swirl)♥

I guess we'll never know how good she is until we see the movie. The one thing I will say though is if she has read the books and is a supposed big fan then why did she turn it down when she was offered it?
lutz_of_love

Because she was a big after the Twilight made all that money and Rachelle got the pink slip. And an even bigger fan when they started casting for Victoria again.
sarah9932

damnit, wish MTV in the states would allow viewers who aren't from there to view it, tis annoying

see if we had gotten a screen writer who got the story, we would had let the non-readers how dangerous Edward really is, screw the fact that he sparkles, anyone who has the read the Saga a dozen times, especially Twilight, could tell that Bella's greatest danger came from her own boyfriend, not Jasper not James, Victoria or the Volturi, if MR had focused on that aspect in Twilight, seeing Edward's past, the time away from Carlisle, showing him killing those who were outside the law, imagine him violent and not the swav, sophiscated guy, Bella sees.

Example Stephenie explain a very scary Edward planning on massacring the entire class than getting rid of Bella, or the many ways he wanted to kill her. Why oh why didn't they show that, I bet you no one would be making fun of Edward in the vampire world, and I have faith in David Slade, that Edward Masen Cullen is a vampire in a truest sense of the word you want a pu$$y a$$ vampire, look at Stefan Salvatore. There is someone who does not deserve to wear the name vampire
http://twitter.com/fortheelove ForTheLove ~Team Mikash

I agree. I'm a person overcome by too many mushy lines – even in the books, I was like, ” Really Edward, you're killing me with poetry!”

In the original meadow scene, Bella is supposed to be afraid inside when she leans in to kiss Edward and he flips out. When he asks if he scared her, she said no, but inside she was a bit shaken up.

I think David is great director for Eclipse. I have faith in him that he will show the more dangerous side of Edward and the other Cullens. Jasper is also supposed to be the most intimating to Bella with his scars. So I hope that is portrayed as well.

Anything other than Edward fighting Victoria with a perfect bouffant and ironed suit. Or Carlisle's scarf perfectly in place as a newborn vampire is trying to rip off his head.

Gosh…I haven't been on here in a few days….I was going through SERIOUS withdraws!!!

SO! I think Bryce has just become a gal I have something in common with….I TOO grab my husbands hand when Robert comes on screen!!…LMAO!!!

I'm actually getting a little excited to see her work in Eclipse….We'll see….I'm excited and a bit nervous….
stopdbreathn

Sorry, can't possibly feel bad for a girl who would (at some stage) had rpatz climbing all over her, and giving her the “kiss of death” on the back of her neck.
kerbear585

that is too funny that she had seen Twilight quit a few times and was already a big fan of the saga. and that she was obviously Team Edward. lol. i bet her husband was like ohhhhh mannnnn jeeezzz once she got the part. lol
chloe25

I'm gonna really miss Rachelle I loved her and she was so nice. I am glad that Bryce seems to understand the story and seems to be a twilight fan as well.
Twilight In My Eyes

Wow this post totally affected me in a diff way than everyone else ….

I am really open about her being Victoria.

But that rob comment rubbed me the wring way entirely. I like her a little less now.
