Wooh, another interview!

Watch out Robert Pattinson — there’s another musical talent in the “Twilight” family. Jackson Rathbone—a.k.a vampire Jasper Cullen — is making a name for himself on the music scene with his band 100 Monkeys, and there’s a chance they might make an appearance on the “New Moon” soundtrack.

“We’d love it,” Rathbone told MTV News from the Philadelphia set of his upcoming fantasy film project, M. Night Shyamalan’s “The Last Airbender.” “[But] we’re not really pushing for it,” he said. “It’s one of those things where if they want to put our song on the album, I’m not going to complain.” The 24-year-old describes his band’s sound as “old school rock and roll,” that is heavily influenced by blues and funk. “It’s not whiney music,” he added.

After the jump, the actor talks about his now-famous scene in the “New Moon” trailer and working with director Chris Weitz.

Rathbone doesn’t let his music get in the way of his acting, though. “Whenever I’m working on the ‘Twilight’ movies, I work all day on the film and then I go and rehearse with my band at night,” said the Texas-born actor.

Yay! New interview with Jackson!

ComingSoon.net/ShockTillYouDrop.com recently had a chance to talk to actor Jackson Rathbone, who has already finished shooting his return as Jasper Cullen in New Moon, the sequel to last year’s mega-hit Twilight.

Before trying to get more details about the sequel, we asked Rathbone to talk about the experience of making the first film before things got so crazy. “The first film, it was one of Summit’s first films. I think it was actually the second films they produced, the first being ‘Never Back Down.’ It felt like a bigger budget indie film. We were all kind of making this movie together, and the way Catherine Hardwicke directs, it’s really a fun vibe that was on set. It was a little stressful because as we kept filming, the press kept getting more of it and the fans kept being more into it. All these websites started popping up, and all these things. It was amazing. It was like, ‘Oh, wow, this is going to be something else!’ We started making this movie and people are already loving it and it’s not even out yet. It has six months to come out and they’re already lining up in the movie theaters. That was an experience in and of itself. I wasn’t really prepared for it, but I was really thankful for it, because they’re so supportive of what we do. As an actor, you need an audience.”

He then talked about the major differences with the production on the sequel. “We have a bigger budget, we have a little more pressure to keep that feeling going, but the nice thing is that you’re delving more into the story now with ‘New Moon,” he said. “As the films progress, you get deeper into the lore and they mythical world you’re establishing with the werewolves and get more into what the werewolf society and legacy is. It keeps getting deeper.”

Here are the Jasper/Alice bits:

The immensely popular “New Moon” trailer gives us a peek at Lautner’s athleticism. It also gives us our first look at the infamous birthday scene — a moment that actor Jackson Rathbone had been eager to shoot ever since he landed the role of anguished vampire Jasper Hale.

“He unleashed the madness; it was crazy,” Peter Facinelli remembered of the day when Rathbone finally got to display his inner animal and attack Kristen Stewart’s Bella. “It took me and Kellan — non-acting — to hold him back.”

Elizabeth Reaser also got knocked over during the violent take. “Jasper, played by Jackson Rathbone, kinda loses it when Bella cuts herself,” Kellan Lutz recalled. “It’s fun to work with your friends and see a side of them that you really don’t expect. That’s where the acting comes into play. Jackson did an amazing job portraying that scene, and it was fun being my character to try and stop him.”

Speaking of favorite scenes, Greene also got to shoot hers — a high-octane moment where Alice Cullen steals a yellow Porsche in Italy. “It was really fun. I worked with a stuntman before actually driving it and learned how to do a bunch of unnecessary things that were fun, like fishtailing, and he was gonna teach me drifting,” Greene laughed. “I drove it in a scene and came about 2 inches from the wall!”

“I hate you,” a jealous Lutz joked.

“I know,” Greene said. “Oh, my gosh — everyone does right now!”
