Eclipse cast member Billy Burke (aka Charlie Swan) recently did an interview with Laura Saltman from Access Hollywood.In the video he says that there will be a cameo in Eclipse. Someone from an 80′s rock band, and they play a Vampire in a flashback sequence? hmmmm
UPDATE: An awesome EclipseMovie.org reader Lucia, has figured out who Billy was referring to! His name is Peter Murphy from the band Bauhaus. Ironically their first single was called Bella Lugosi’s Dead, and Lead singer Peter Murphy was known for performing upside down in a bat costume!Here is confirmation that this is indeed the person making the cameo. And is taken directly from his site PeterMurphy.info

[Thanks, Tia!]

First?
Second!!!
3rd
Ok already saw this, but I love Billy!
Like someone already wrote on the comments section on the NewMoon page, the singer from Bauhaus is called Peter Murphy (one of my all time favourites). Billy Burke gave ALL the info and the lady doing the interview didn't even understand, lol
*pats u on the back*
don't feel bad i probably won't know him either.
Wonder who's doing the cameo??!!
Thanks. I'm just moody because July is so far away. But I haven't even seen New Moon yet, so I can't be complaining.
yes I think almost everybody saw this but he is the other Daddy C
isn't he so we love him
yep, it's really really silent in here! weird.
Someone from the 80 Rock band??????
* thinking Had!!!! *
Wham!!! HAH!
Rob, George Mihael in white short ” wake me up before you go go ” LMAO!!
Hmm.. exciting! I wonder who it is.
Always like to hear from Billy. He's cool!
I have never ever heard of this Peter Murphy guy…
But it's cool, Billy seems to be very excited LOL
I lovelovelove Bauhaus' Bela Lugosi's Dead.
Great song- interesting cameo!
No coffee yet. Can't really talk *Big YAWN*
RESPECT YOUR ELDERS!
“someone from the 80's in a band?! yea i def. won't kno who he is talking about so i won't even try to guess.”
But I don't know who the heck he's talking about either. LOL
*shuffles off to see if the coffee pot is finished yet*
*smacks Gaby on the back of the head*
You're too chipper first thing in the morning!
Yeah, I'm a grump when I first wake up with no coffee yet.
it is i guess everyone's hopping all over the place b/c there has been so many posts.
lol.
hey i'm just keeping it real & i respect all u old…i mean i respect my elders.
& i don't have a witty comeback this time, i'm too tired
NM! it's almost here! *squeal*
Ouch!!! my head
Wake me up before you go go … LOL
* starts dancing and snaping fingers *
C'mon girl you know you love it , good morning, on my way to work too
that's kind of awesome!!!!! can't wait to see it!
Thanks God Tom Cruise will not appear in Eclipse yay!!! Don´t like him…
Damn, I was hoping that it would be Joan Jett..
Love Billy….but, ahhhh…..can we talk Break Dawn now?! eheheheheh
LOL….Ok I am a child from the 80's and I dont even know who this Peter Murphy is nor the band Bauhaus is so no worries children…..LOL
Bauhaus was like a goth band from the 80s They are pretty awesome. I love um! I listened to them all the time in my 'goth' phase when I was younger. Im pretty excited about him makin a cameo though, that is pretty awesome!
I wonder WHY he would be doing a cameo as a vampire…. *thinks*
I hope its not a slow news day!
but this is cool.
I am not sure who this man is! But what vamp do you think he will be? It says from a flashback scene. Hmm….
Yes, I cannot wait for breakingdawnmovie.org! And let's just say for whatever reason they do not make BD (I know, it is horrible to even think like that!!), can you still make a bd.org for us. You know, so we have somewhere to go!!
He's a pretty well known unknown……meaning he's one of those guys that you instantly know the song when you hear it, but don't know who sings it. LOL! He's kind of punk/goth/alternative. His band, Bauhaus, was in the opening of the movie 'The Hunger' with David Bowie and Catherine Deneuve. 'Bella Lugosi's Dead' is a great song, but 'Cuts You Up' is my favorite. He toured with Nine Inch Nails a few years back….2006 I think. I wonder if he's playing a known character or some random unnamed character in the flashback?
The more i look at it the more his name is really familiar but then again Peter Murphy its a pretty standard name here so that could be it LOL!!
i'll have to download those songs to see if i recognise them
Yeah i wonder who he's gonna play if its a cameo *strokes chin in contemplation*
So, is this like… Jasper flashback scene?
Or… is there any other vamp flashback bits?
I don't know.
This should be interesting!
I know!
“Cos that's the rumour going round.”
Is it? O.o
I didn't hear that one.
Everyones over on NMM.org except me *tears up*
Me too, Chel, me too
I cannot wait until all of the new, exciting news is over here, then we can be included!!
does anyone know who he is talking about?
holy shit! i love that freakin' song!!!!! way to go David Slade! kickassery!
hey thats me mentioned yay! glad to see the e-mail tip line works
Hey Luvr!!! I thought i was gonna lose my mind earlier all those new posts today and we got NADA!!!! I hate my work computer
Yeah, it sucks big time. I want to hurry up and go home so I can comment on all of the new stuff at nmm.org. A lot happened today!!
i'm home and trying to catch up but i don't think i'm gonna be able to damn my less than perfect typing skills!!!!
I like Billy !!!! He's cool!!!
mmmm starting to sound odd to myself these days mmmmm ………….
oops I don't know who he is either! and on the other hand I'm trying to think of flash back scene, and maybe it could be when Bella is at the bonfire and they talk about how to these two vamps came and killed lots of natives, one was a guy and the other was a girl, but the guy was killed and the woman came to get revenged and then the whole 'third wife' story comes up! I think that maybe it could be that, or it could be Peter (Jasper's friend), although I really think the other one is most likely!
Hi, yeah umh? I was commenting above about the story of the 'third wife' that came up at the bonfire, in that story two vamps are mentioned, one guy (who is killed) and the woman that was with him, that later comes and tries to get revenge! hope it helps, 'cause the other one flashback vamp I can think of is Peter, but Billy said in the video that it was a dream/flashback scene and so I think that the former is more likely since Bella also has a dream about the third wife, what do you think? …. gosh this just makes me more desperate for Eclipse and I haven't seen NM yet, I'm going to need psychiatric help very soon! : ) and sorry for the long comment!
Wow, I feel old. None of you know who Peter Murphy is.
This will be cool to see. I've seen him live a few times. I have several Bauhaus and Peter Murphy solo CDs. Sexy creepy guy.
You might be right. All I know is that his picture kinda scares me, so he would probably make a good “bad vamp”.
Edit to add:
Billy said the name of the band right in the interview and you still didn't know who he was talking about? That means that I am definitely old and irrelevant at 35. **sniff**
i forget to check on here!!..yaya cameo..i dont know who peter whatever his name is..
I didn't hear that rumor either.. but that would be odd.. even though he played a good Lestat i can't see him in the Twilight world.
yeah his pics gave the chills! I was like wow he is going to be a bad a** vamp he he : )
That would prob fit.. either that or Jasper's flashback and he's just a random vamp.
Oh yeah that could be it,well we have to wait and see, but OMG the wait will be painful! ; )
that's sad that so many people here don't know who Peter Murphy is. I love Bauhaus
Wow this is so cool, I only heard of that band and song a few weeks ago!! Never heard of the guy though lol And theres one l in that Bela.
Our Bella has 2 l's XD Can't wait for Eclipse!!
I know it; I know it; I know it.
It's Peter Murphy! Wooooooo Hoooooooooooo!

Yipes, yipes, yipes! So Excited: HUGE BAUHAUS AND PETER MURPHY FAN!
Haha, I just noticed after I posted that they gave away it's Peter Murphy.
But………….. I really knew it before that.
Love Peter – Love Bauhaus
It's going to be so great! Can't wait!
Bauhaus's big hits were a remake of Bowie's Ziggy Stardust, Bela Lugosi's Dead, She's in Parties. I love In the Flat Field, The Passion of Lovers, and the remake of T Rex's Telegram Sam.
This video is where the vampire imagery comes from.

Been out of the loop for a day – and Peter Murphy is in Eclipse.
I couldn't be happier – I too am a fan of Cuts you Up. I listened to that album to death and could sing every word of every song.
I've attached this little darling which is a treasured favorite.
Vampire much? LOL
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXh4diT8VsE
Awesome, great, fantastic, stroke of genius – love it!
So is purple! LOL
Peter Murphy is going to be so fantastic! Love him and Bauhaus music – favorites of mine for a VERY long time!
That's awesome!
billy burke said in the video that it was bauhaus.
i don't know that band, but he said it clearly in the interview…
Agreed agreed agreed! SO friggin awesome! Peter will make a PERFECT vampire!
Honestly, he'll be awesome whoever he ends up being, but I'm hoping that DS worked in a–long overdue–flashback scene for Alice since CH skipped it entirely & it appears that the rest of the Cullens have their respective flashback scenes (this is based on conjecture from interviews). Considering Alice wasn't brought over by Daddy C they would need a male to portray her 'maker' (unless they're covering Victoria or someone else's past in a flashback).
I also agree w/the others that mentioned him as possibly being one of the 'Cold Ones'. That's very very feasible. Either or works for me!
Hello Lovely
I don't know if I know their music but I will have a look on youtube to see what they sound like
Hey hon!! I haven't seen you around much lately… How are you?? How was your weekend with Nicky??
Thanks i'm gonna download them and have a listen i prob do know the songs but my robsessed brain isn't letting me think rationally lately
mmmm rob *drifts off again*
I thougt so too although the name sounds familiar I can't picture him.
Hi x]
The Third Wife… Wow I never thought about that.
You're absolutely right. It does mention vampires in that. Hm.. I wonder if that's where the cameo will be.
Yes!
That is exactly what I was thinking.
Because CH didn't do anything about Aice's flashback (which I'm not happy about >:( ) and it doesn't appear that CW has done anything about it either. SO maybe Eclipse will?
I really hope so. ^ ^
I've been up to Scotland and then coming back I was catching up on all the posts we missed while we were chatting until 6am in the morning lol not to mention trying to get my suitcase back since an old lady decide to take it off the train instead of hers…. should be delivered to me on Monday fingers (and everything else crossed) I just want my stuff back
Nics and Sax are Superb!!! Edinburgh is soo pretty and I was lucky to get 2 days of hot sun (doesn't usually happen) so I could see the city at it's finest… I want to go back
How are you? xxx
Bauhaus. BAUHAUS?!
I WANT IT!
Oh awesome!! So cool you girls had the chance to meet up and talk all night long… I wish I could have been there! I am talking about going to Scotland for so long now, we are planning on making long hiking trips but everything's still on hold with our lovely doggy around. So glad you girls had such a wonderful time! And a sunny Scotland too!! You know how Nicky always jokes about that…
But losing your suitcase like that, god that's not funny!! So stupid that having similar suitcases on the same train can lead to that! Or the lady was just blind…
don't think they were that similar I just think she was in a hurry and dint pay attention ….. I hope my mind is going top sinister places lol
…. welll I'll get it back oin monday hopefully
Cool! What a coincidence!
Keeping my fingers crossed for you! I would just freak out if something like that happened to me. I need my own stuff!! To be without so much as my own hairbrush or a pair of socks would totally get me out of my element!
Hm… I guess I am kind of finicky when it comes to my stuff…
Sae here hon!
That's why I'm so angry about it it's my stuff I probably have to boil it
in the washing machine to make sure it's ok….
I'm pretty OCD when it comes to my stuff xxx
Hi Becki, sorry that it took me forever to answer, but school had me tied up! anyway my friend and I were talking about this possibility and we agreed that this is probably were it might take place : ) and hey 12 days to NM how awesome is that?! yupeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!
Peter Murphy has one of the greatest singing voices. And definitely a face befitting a vampire flashback.
OH, and just an FYI (sorry if someone else already posted this) Peter Murphy has had quite a successful, long term career outside of Bauhaus and Bauhaus just had a new release in 2008 – so to refer to them as artists from the 80's is not really accurate.
How funny it is that I have seen Peter Murphy in concert before so many Twilight fans where even born. I'm old.
