New video interview with Eclipse villain Bryce Dallas Howard (aka Victoria II) on ABC News Radio.

In the interview she discusses her role in The Loss of a Teardrop Diamond. If you skip to 4:00 mins she talks about Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, and Stephenie Meyer. She also discusses her character Victoria, and how much she loves Eclipse.

She admits in the interview she wore a wig while playing the part of Victoria. Once again with the craptastic wigs! WTHale!

The problem is that this kind of thing happens all the time in the movie industry. Production schedules change and Rachelle was allegedly told by Summit that it would all work out.

There are three sides to this story – Rachelle's, Summit's, and the truth. We'll never know the whole story, but if Summit was (and this is speculative) the real villian here, they wouldn't be the first movie company to do something unethical and then mislead the public to cover their reputation.

They hired MR for God's sake – how much integrity do you think they have?

GUESS WHAT I LEARNED IN SCHOOL….

I LIKE BDH IN ONLY MOVIE ALL THE REST SHE REALLY SUCKS. I HOPE SHE DOESNT RUIN ECLIPSE. I WATCH BOTH HERS AND RACHELLE'S FILM FOR A FILM CLASS PROJECT. RACHELLE IS BY FAR A BETTER ACTRESS AND MORE EXPERIENCE. MY PROFESSOR REALLY OPENED MY AND MY CLASSMATES' EYES ON WHAT HE FOUND PROOF AND MAKES ME REALLY NOT LIKE THE HOLLYWOOD LIFESTYLE ESP. HOLLYWOOD ROYALTY AKA THE HOWARDS. AT FIRST I WAS MAD AT RACHELLE FOR TAKING ANOTHER ROLE. THEN MY PROFESSOR SHOWS US A COUPLE OF INTERVIEWS AND OTHER EVIDENCE AND I NOW I AM REALLY PISSED AT SCUMITT. ONE INTERVIEW WAS IN EARLY/MID JUNE WITH RACHELLE STATING SHE HAD SIGNED FOR A SHORT PROJECT IN AUGUST BEFORE SHOOTING ECLIPSE- FIRST SHE ISNT ALLOW TO SAYING ANYTHING UNTIL EVERYTHING IS PAN OUT (SCHEDULING ETC. FOR ECLIPSE) ITS IN 99% OF ALL CONTRACTS THAT THEY TALK ABOUT A ROLE OR A POSSIBLE ROLE UNTIL GIVEN THE OKAY BY ALL PARTIES (RL TEAM, STUDIOS, DIRECTOR, AND ETC). SO SCUMITT WAS INDEED NOTIFIED TO GET PERIMISSION TO GET START NEGOTATIONS.MID JULY PRODUCTION MOVED UP A WEEK OR TWO AS STATED BY SCUMIT . THEN AN INTERVIEW IN JULY RIGHT BEFORE OR AT COM CON FROM CAST MEMBERS STATING THEY WERE MOVING PRODUCTION UP AND CHANGING THE SCHEDULE AROUND. MY PROFESSOR IS A RETIRED STUDIO LAWYER HE BELIEVES IT’S THE SWITCH A UNKOWN/ LOW-KEY ACTRESS WITH SOMEONE WITH A NAME. HE SAID HE SAW IT HAPPENS A LOT AND HE SAID IT MUST BE CAREFULLY DONE FOR LEGAL AND PUBLIC REASONS. WHAT MORE HE TOLD US MADE ME HATE BDH EVEN MORE BECAUSE SHE HAD A BIG PART IN IT. IN A RECENT INTERVIEW SHE SAID SHE WAS A FAN OF THE SERIES (SOMETHING SHE HAS SAID SO MANY TIMES IN HER OTHER REPLACEMENT MOVIE ROLES) WELL SHE COULD TAKEN THE ROLE WHEN OFFER FOR TWILIGHT. SHE SURE DID MOVIE ROLES WHILE PREGANT AND CARING FOR HER CHILD. OTHER ACTRESSES HAVE DONE SO WHEN THEY EITHER LOVE A SCRIPT OR SERIES. YES I AM AND MOST OF MY SCHOOL ARE BOYCOTTING ECLIPSE AND BDH MOVIES AS WELL AS OTHER MOVIES WHERE KNOWN ACTORS HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO DO THIS. I AM LOOKING FOR LINKS BUT MOST HAVE DISPEARED DUE TO LEGAL REASONS (SCUMITT).

I'm sorry to say that I don't believe that she can sell herself as Victoria to me any way. To me Victoria is Rachelle and I'm so disappointed to Summit for what they did. My hope just is that they will cut Victoria's appearances in the movie to minim. Eclipse is possible to make so that she actually is seen only in that last battle. I have seen only one series where the replacement was as good as the original and it was in Harry Potter where they really didn't have any choice with that, because the original Dumpledore died before they started to shoot that third movie. But like others had said, there is nothing we can do about it.

I really hope that they find a way to shoot that Breaking Dawn so that SM is happy how Renesmee is done so that this is not going to be last movie from Twilight saga.
*PB*DontShakeYourGF@Me*

…. Just looking at that gave me a headache… LMAO
*PB*DontShakeYourGF@Me*

I've said it before… I will say it again… I think she will blow us all away with her performance.

That is all.
CHEESEBURGERS!!!

I like her, and, I like Rachelle!
It's possible for both of them to be awesome people, and they are, with great personalities and outlooks. I know Rachelle was hurt with what happened with Eclipse, alot of people were, but things happen for a reason. And I'm sure the movie she was in at the time will do great. Kristen said Bryce was 'scary', so you know she had to have done a great job.

More wigs huh? Is Edward's hair his own??? lol j/k (he's probably the only one besides Charlie…hahaha)
CHEESEBURGERS!!!

lol – I felt like I was looking for an image in a 3D picture – my eyes are trying to focus back to normal. All CAPS always does that to me. :O)

but, I can understand what she's saying, that sh!t happens sometimes…
*PB*DontShakeYourGF@Me*

LoL, I didn't even read it but you got me interested… now that I did… I disagree with about 95% of what she screamed!

*snickers then points up to Display Name*
Twilight In My Eyes

did you not read & watch the countless interviews with anna kendrick??? she flew between cities during the filming of eclipse and up in the air. so, she was OBVIOUSLY signed on to do 2 movies at the same time. rachelle was c*ck blocked big time. and you know what…?

I MISS RACHELLE!!!!!!!! so take that. ha!
dazzledbyhim

I'm sorry but I have to say that I think the 1st Victoria should have stayed on to finish the role. I heard that Bryce Dallas Howard didnt want the role as Victoria long ago because it wasnt a big enough role and now that the Twilight Saga is a success she has it. Look who her dad is and I'm sure there is something going out that we do not know about on how she got this role. Just look how Rachelle was totally shocked by this. I think she is the best one to play Victoria according to the books description.

What’s with all the CAPS? LOL. Yes, I read it (out of respect to madison21 and his/her thoughts and education) took like 5 minutes and 3 breaks and headache later but I understand what was stated. I know something was fishy about the situation. After reading OP, I remember some of these interviews. But what is done is done and can’t be changed. Then it could in post production, Madison21, I also took a film course in college, I remember learning about Eyes Wide Open and Romeo and Juliet switches in actors had taken place in post production. But I believe it will not happenin this case for many reasons. Sorry as much as I loved and enjoy Rachelle as Victoria. She is the one and only true Victoria in my eyes. I admit it will be very hard to image Bryce as Victoria. And yes I to pray she doesn’t ruin it.

Until June….
CHEESEBURGERS!!!

LOL – I got lost in the message, but forced myself to try to understand – and I agree with your disagreeing. *snickering and pointing with you*

I guess everyone has a 'soap-box'…
CHEESEBURGERS!!!

I wish Rachelle could have stayed on too. And I think I heard the same thing about Bryce passing on the role. But, such are things in this business, she changed her mind when it got big, it happens. Right, having Ron as her dad doesn't hurt, well, it hasn't hurt at all. lol She may have used her name to help her out, but who knows all the behind the scene stuff she does on her own??? Too late to change anything for the film, and I think she'll be fine. She is a nice person. So, I won't judge for now…let's wait for the movie and see how she does. I'm so curious… :O)

They hired MR not one, not two, but THREE times!

hopefully only three times, and a new script-writer will be brought in for BD, if it ever gets confirmed.
OhEdward (The Original)

I have wishful thinking too. I can't imagine that they would jump ship from her now. Boo!
woahitsedward!

in most of the first comments, everyone is saying not to hate bdh…. i thnks shes just being selfish!!!!!!!!!!!! i mean, wasnt she originally chosen to be victoria in twilight??? but she turned the role down because she wouldnt get enough money!!!!!!!!!!! and now that its this HUGE thing, of couse shes now victoria… she irks me. lol

Honestly, if I was Rachelle, I would be kind of pissed about not having a single line in New Moon. I left the theatre the first time thinking “Did she even say anything?” and have really tried to pay attention to her in subsequent viewings and I don't see that she ever uttered a word. Please feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

And before anyone starts yelling, yes I get that she didn't have any lines in the book. But how much would that suck? Being a kind of big deal actor relegated to a non-speaking role? No wonder she accepted that other job. She was probably dying to actually get a chance to talk in a movie.

She seemed to like the way Victoria was made a significant manace in New Moon when she spoke in interviews during that time. She was included in the group and seemed very happy to be there. It was such a shock when she was replaced. I took it as a message to the rest of the cast “Don't mess with us. We're the boss”.
EnglishRock

I even started wondering if she had lines at one time and then, when she was replaced in Eclipse, they edited them out of New Moon. That would go with the whole making-an-example-out-her thing.

No doubt she wanted to be a part of the movies. She was under contract for the biggest role of her career and working with a great cast. She did seem very happy. And then so quickly she was really unhappy. It stunk.
breesmom

I've heard there was a scene with her in a car, driving and snacking on some tourists, but it was cut for time reasons. I don't see that particular scene as being necessary to the plot, just an “extra”.

I thought something was a little off when she wasn't included on the panel at ComiCon but Ashley was…might have been a coincidence but…a day or two after that, it was announced that she had been replaced. I doubt she even knew about it either, at the time–she looked all excited to be there and happy in interviews. I think she thought they were going to work around her schedule, in the end and was shocked when they replaced her.
EnglishRock

Thanks for the heads up on that scene. I'll look for it on the DVD extras. Like I've always said (or just thought of now to make my new slogan) – “It never hurts to watch a tourist getting chomped up like an after dinner mint”

Come to think of it. That might hurt the tourist a bit.
breesmom

LOL

Nice slogan!

I MISS RACHELLE!!
So there…
AND Bryce is growing on me. I'm not the type of person to judge people or talk about them w/o knowing them AND I had stated that I would give her the benefit of the doubt until I saw her performance in Eclipse!! She's beautiful and SEEMS really sweet.. even our beloved KStew says that she IS! I, honestly, just cant wait to see how she portrays Vicky… Rachelle was MY perfect Vicky and I <3 and MISS her.. always will, BUT we want our movies, right guys!? We gotta go w/the flow and hope for accuracy and beauty =0)
