Xavier Samuel On MTV Australia

195 Comments April 21, 2010 by TeamSpaceHeaters Filed Under: Xavier Samuel

MTV Australia has an article on their Twilight Saga: Eclipse ozzie hunk Xavier Samuel aka Riley.

Move over Taylor Lautner , there’s a new ‘ It Boy’ in town.

Aussie hottie Xavier Samuel, who’s starring in the ‘The Twilight Saga: Eclipse’ has been labelled one of Hollywood’s hottest new men.

In an upcoming issue of VMAN, the actor, who judged the OPTUS ONE80PROJECT last week, reveals he’s still getting used to his new found fame.

Talking about the drawbacks of being a rising actor he says, “Living out of a suitcase and your comfort zone, it’s a bit of a challenge.”

And the hunk, who starred in the award-winning Oz horror flick ‘The Loved Ones’ says he can’t wait to work on his home turf again.

“I want to get back to Australia and do a film there. It’s important to remember your roots.”

But despite his success, the 26-year-old admits he almost followed a different career path altogether.

When asked if he’d always wanted to be on the big screen he said,

“Not at all, really. I mean, the usual response is, you know, “I’ve been acting since I was three, and I used to perform plays for my Mom and Dad.” But I never really did that sort of stuff.

“I kind of followed a friend of mine into auditioning for drama schools and sort of landed in a drama course as a result of that. And it wasn’t kind of ’til halfway through that first year that I thought, “Actually, this is something that is a craft, and it’s not just a hobby.”

same time…they cause a lot of accidents

Okay, okay, if you promise to keep quiet, I will take you with me.

Matthew would make a better Peter, since he too is from Texas.

Garrett being from the time of the Revoluntiary war would require a Brit, so maybe Rob's friend Tom? or like I mentioned Sam Worthington

well folks at least Riley is in the book, I didn't mind a little insight to what Victoria, James and Laurent were doing until they got to the baseball game. Same thing is one thing in the books Bella reading the paper, would seeing Bella read the paper on screen be exicting? or would you rather see Riley and company doing their thang?

Books and movies are too different creatures, movies are the visual.

I could so picture Matthew as Peter more than Garrett. I don't know Sam
Worthington.

I have to say this boy does things to me.

Good choice Victoria.

I didn't realise he was 26 either, I thought he was younger than that!

And yep I don't mind a bit of Riley as long it is not in place of Edward.
EAD_Twist-Ta-ArmpitHair

I-4 is horrific enough….then to see people doing that turns into a death trap and 1/2.

Robvier….Oh, the creative juices flowing on this site…..

received the flowers.

Not so sure that I agree with the “Move over Taylor Lautner…” line.

as long we don't get another Waylon Ford? I'm okay that characters of the book get expanded some what. Like I said, it will what Edward does to Victoria, be justice because he is not only saving Bella but he is saving other families, the pain that Riley and Bree's family are going through.

After all didn't Edward kill serial killers?

The part made perfect sense because Jacob wanted to escape the pain that was going on in that house and he did that by trying to imprint.

Benjamin sounds more like a boy than a man.
TeamGreyT-Shirt

yep, that's her.
SmallTownCullenGirlSpoilerFree

I guess I never thought of Benjamin as a boy. Who do you see playing
Benjamin?
LionLamb

Notice how they ONLY said 'move over Taylor Lautner'
And they didn't say ti about Rob
It ain't never gonna happen
ya can't replace him
*throws hands in the air and shrugs*
EAD_Twist-Ta-ArmpitHair

Hey, this is a place we are able to express ourselves, no matter how lame we are. And we are lame sometimes. LOL
EAD_Twist-Ta-ArmpitHair

I know, right? What was the point? Reading more of how tortured Jake is that he can't imprint on Bella? Hasn't the poor kid gone thru enough, as well as the readers? *gag*
EAD_Twist-Ta-ArmpitHair

*pouts* NO! I swear they called to verify the address and that they were being delivered to Erin. I'm the only Erin out of almost 200 employees. *whining* WHERE ARE THEY??? lol
Newborn_Leia

Sure~it made sense..but I didn't care for it.

He's definitely easy on the eyes..I wouldn't kick him outta bed for eating
crackers… Maybe Eclipse can be rewritten as a love fest involving
Edward, Bella, Jake, & Riley. MR, if you're gonna screw with our favorite
books, you might as well make it good!!
SmallTownCullenGirlSpoilerFree

They are prob delayed as they text on the I-4…lol

Don't worry, I will wait for you.
leahreallyitis

Oprah should have not only interviewed Stephenie but also the cast as well all on the same day O_O she needs to get with the program I really hope she has done her research and if she thinks MR is a great writer I will never watch her show again I swear to budda and beyond that I will not watch her show again if she said that and I was out in the audience I would say HAH! LOL
PieceOfForeverRPatz

im sure he'll get water…and gatorade…and redbull etc.
leahreallyitis

he just needed some time to process it all and just be alone and do some thinking of what he wants to do I thought for sure that he would just up and travel and not come back to Forks that is what I thought he would do… until he got one look at Renesmee and that was it he stays in Forks after all LOL
EAD_Twist-Ta-ArmpitHair

Hmmpphhh!!!!! I have to usually wait until I get home. I can't see YouTube at work. Hopefully it will be somewhere else before I leave. Or it's going to become a very painful hour drive home!!!
EAD_Twist-Ta-ArmpitHair

Hee. It is Administrative Assistant's Day and that usually includes Receptionist, as well. The employer usually buys something nice for them. I got a really nice card and g/c and I just got my flowers about five minutes ago. So pretty.
