It’s no secret that Breaking Dawn, the final installment of the Twilight Saga, has been filming in Squamish, BC for the past few weeks and apparently, its causing quite a stir in tourism.
According to The Chief, “The hotels are full and the restaurants are busier than ever. Their presence in town has spurred interest in Squamish and has been economically beneficial for the community — you can’t buy advertising like this.”
Of course, the Twilight fans who have flocked to town aren’t just there for the scenery, they’re hoping to get some face time with the movie’s stars, which is fine with Kellen Lutz, as long as the don’t disturb him in the middle of a workout, or call all their friends and have them rush down to meet him too. “I’m a people person, so I love meeting the fans that are so passionate about the movie,” he said. “Let’s just say you have a better chance of getting personal time if you don’t text all your friends and there’s a group of 30 people outside a movie theater versus two or three.”
As for those of us still in the U.S., we might have one more chance to catch a glimpse of filming too. According to Mandy’s Mind, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart might be filming re-shoots in Florida later this month.
“It SEEMS there may be a day or two shoot right before Easter weekend in Florida…. No one mentioned a city, and I can’t confirm 100% this is correct, but for now it seems likely just based on the number of separate people saying it.”
