Cast of New Moon sends message to Volterra
Seems like they taped the message when they were taping the birthday scene for The Twilight Saga: New Moon.

Yummy New Moon Poster!!
Although it's only a manip, we found this New Moon poster on ROBsessed and decided it's just too yummy not to pass it on to our readers. Nom-Nom-Nom!!
Thanks, ROBsessed for stopping our hearts! It just reminds us that sitting through all that Bella/Jacob crap will be soooo worth the scene in Volterra. LOL...J/K! Not really though... ;o)

No Volterra?
I found this interesting update on newmoonmovie.org and wanted to pass it along to our readers.
Filming in Volterra Not Confirmed Yet?
February 26, 2009
A while ago, we reported on a Variety article in which New Moon was seemingly confirmed to be shooting in Volterra, Italy–the place in the New Moon book where the Volturi reside. However, the Tourism Commission of Volterra seems to have heard different news, and just today Luciano from their group shares this with us–
"Municipality of Volterra has written many letters to Summit Entertainment with only one short answer (we read it..and sounds like: "oh, thank you..we are thinking about it…") but has no more been contacted by New Moon production.
I know that Variety.com wrote "Volterra, two weeks in may". But, the day after, "Eagle Pictures" (Italian distribution) said to italian press that everything was misunderstood by the columnist Nick Vivarelli."
If you visit the website they have set up–they being the group of the Municipality of Volterra, Tourist Office, Bank of Volterra and Fondazione CRV, you can read a heartfelt letter (in Italian) that was sent to Summit, and more news concerning their attempts to have New Moon filmed in their lovely home city.
If you’d like to help them, they’ve set up a petition for you to sign that is fairly easy to understand whether you speak Italian or English if you believe New Moon should be filmed in Volterra. Hhopefully we’ll be hearing more insight into this situation!
What are your thoughts? Will it make it more authentic when watching New Moon KNOWING it was filmed in Volterra, Italy, vs. a soundstage? Let’s just hope that if Summit bypasses filming in Volterra to save a buck that they step it up with a realistic set. I’m not sure I care as long as Rob (er…Edward) is shirtless when Bella reaches him!
