Jodelle Ferland Interview

The Vancouver Sun has one of the first interviews with newly cast Jodelle Ferland who will be playing a certain newborn vamp in Eclipse. She talks about her role, Twitter, and more.

Since Twittering the news about being cast in the film, Ferland has been gaining about 100 new Twitter followers an hour.

“I got about 2,000 new followers on the first day,” she said. From young actor to global phenomenon with the flick of a switch.

“I got Twitter just a couple of weeks ago and I had 136 followers and I was like ‘Wow, I have 136 followers,’” she said. “And then the Twilight news came out and we checked and it was 800 and something right away.”

“I started freaking out, I couldn’t believe it.” . . .

The Internet rumour mill has Ferland cast as newly turned vampire Bree, a vampire soldier in a ravenous army bent on avenging the death of Victoria’s partner James.

“I’m not allowed to say, but I can tell you I am playing a newborn vampire,” she confirmed.

“But I’m not a newborn, I’m newly turned; some people don’t get that.”

So not only will Ferland meet the stars of Twilight, she will likely have to fight some of them.

“I don’t know, but that would be fun,” she said.
