Twilight Lexicon Interview: Part 1

Christopher Heyerdahl, who portrays "Marcus" in The Twilight Saga: New Moon, has just signed on for the Official Twiiight Convention tour, and his first stop on the tour was in Miami, Florida.

Twilight Lexicon, one of the oldest and most esteemed fansites of the franchise, has been on board for Creation Entertainment's events as well.

During Heyerdahl's appearance at the show, the Lexicon was able to nab an exclusive two-part video interview with Heyerdahl, and they asked some of the most interesting questions about his involvement with the Twilight saga, including some about how being a part of this franchise compares to his past in other science fiction franchises like Supernatural, Stargate: Atlantis, and Smallville.

In the interview, Heyerdahl also revealed his opinions on the importance of the Volturi in the New Moon world and his "great honor" of being a part of the series. It was his niece, he reveals, who inspired him to join the cast, and he found that translating a character from book to film was a very interesting and unique experience - particularly within the Volturi guard in New Moon.
