Interview by J.Bennett
Fourteen-year-old girls everywhere know him as Jasper Hale from the Twilight films, butJACKSON RATHBONE will not be satisfied with a single franchise. This month, the 25-year-old actor and musician stars as Sokka in The Last Airbender, the first of a planned trilogy based on the popular Nickelodeon animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender. Directed by M. Night Shyamalan (The Sixth Sense), the film is an eye-singeing 3D fantasy-headache featuring dragon oracles, sprawling martial arts battles and small children who can move oceans with their minds. AP recently spoke with Rathbone about stick-fighting, the Who and his own band, 100 Monkeys.
Was working with M. Night Shyamalan different than you expected?
I don’t know what my expectations were, necessarily. I was just excited to be a part of this film. Getting to work with Night was very exciting—I’ve always been in admiration of the kind of longer shots he uses in his films. It’s a very Kubrickian style that seems kind of lost in mainstream films these days. But with Night’s films, it’s very prevalent. One of the scenes I was most excited about was this scene with two cameras that was just one long take. And that to me is incredible. I love doing long scenes where the cameras just roll and the actors can go with it.
