Live Blog Patrick Brennan, Bill Tangradi, and Guri Weinburg Boston Q& A

Thanks to our Elite Affiliate Twilight Lexicon for this tip!

Initial reactions to auditioning/getting cast:

Bill was bar tending in Brooklyn Heights in a gay bar in and any audition was welcome. He was super excited a week later to land the role.

Guri didn’t know what it was and then his manager’s assistant gave him Twilight 101 and she was a rabid fan and he got it was big

Patrick was literally down to being a Romano’s pizza delivery guy and was grateful to get the gig. He hadn’t gotten a gig in a year.

Jobs they would never want Guri working in a morgue Pat deliver pizza Bill can’t think of one

Fav Food Bill—sushi Pat—–chocolate Guri—-anything break fast If they can be immortal a day what would they do

Guri jokes I’d deliver pizza Bill..that sucks that I’d be back to being mortal again the next day

Special talents Pat—great dancer Bill–roll tongue and juggle and can do puppets play drums

Fears Pats’ ironically is heights Guri is snakes Bill people with blank stares…what do they really want If they could be any age: Pat—6 Guri—30, you’re young enough to do things but old enough for people to take you seriously Bill—not sure

YouTube video favs Pat—”Charlie You Bit My finger” and the fainting dog

The guys seriously are totally bouncing off each other and way off topic, they are on this whole Lady Gaga googoo thing

Pet peeve Bill–condescending people Guri—loud talkers in restaurant Pat-people who lie

Weirdest Fan Experiences: Guri—having a girl on hotel balcony opposite his in Eclipse gear staring at him Bill-during a private Q&A some guy starts telling him about his time in as a storm trooper and he wasn’t all there and the guy had to be removed Pat—-wow I am so happy I don’t have these problems!

If they could be a Cullen which one Pat—-Emmett, Kellan is the baddest dude around Guri —jokes Bella Bill—laughs and starts singing little mermaid song with different lyrics about who would I be….now he says I wouldn’t be one

Weirdest place fan has asked for photo or autograph Bill went to his Moms daycamp and they were very excited he was in ICarley. Bill’s mom is here and just got huge applause.

Guri just gave Children of the Night ( a charity he works with) a plus

What do they think or what was first impression of Twilight Fans:

Guri—they were really intense and he was intimidated Pat—just thrilled that they had such love of a project because actors get so much rejection Bill–scared before his first convention, but now thinks they are great

Patrick Brennan Talks with Twilight Lexicon About Breaking Dawn, Casting, and Fandom

Thanks to @TwilightLexicon

Here is what Lexicon said about the interview.

While at the Creation Entertainment Official Twilight Convention in Nashville in March we had the chance to sit down and talk with Patrick Brennan, who plays Liam in Breaking Dawn.  This was Patrick’s first ever convention and he was overwhelmed by the love and support he felt from the Twilight fandom!  As the son of Eileen Brennan (Clue, Private Benjamin) Patrick grew up around Hollywood.  He even told us a story while we were setting up about being taken out of school to go to the set for Clue and hanging out with some of the cast members.  But none of that put any kind of damper on his humility and gratitude for being a part of the Twilight Saga as you will see in this interview.

You will need to turn the volume up all the way for this one.  We had limited space and time for the interview.  This took place while everyone was getting ready for their photo ops in the next room so there is quite a bit of background noise that we apologize for!  Still, we feel this is a great introduction for the fans to get to know Patrick.  He is going to be at several stops of the Official Twilight Convention along the way.  Your next chance to see him is at the Arlington convention April 15 – 17.

Our thanks go to Creation Entertainment for allowing us to film the interview and to Patrick Brennan for taking the time to talk to us.  You can follow Patrick on Twitter at @thePatBrennan.
