Before joining the cast of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, Xavier Samuel was certainly no stranger to the film world, and he’d completed a handful of other films – including one (The Loved Ones) which debuted at the Toronto International Film Festival this September.

According to a recent feature in his local newspaper, though, his Twilight-related celebrity status has thrown him for a bit of a loop.

“I wasn’t used to that sort of attention, so I just took it in my stride, I guess,” he told Adelaide Now. “I think Robert [Pattinson] and Kristen [Stewart] do a really good job in dealing with fans. They seem to handle it really well, so if I can take a leaf out of their book I should be OK.” Good rule of thumb?As for Eclipse, Samuel (who portrays “Riley”) gave a few intelligent words of insight as well. “If you want to know what happens in the movie, just read the book.” Well, yeah. On the other hand, particularly where Samuel is concerned, there’ve been some notable deviations in the storyline of Eclipse for the film – ones which, so far, have been well received. For instance, there was some speculation offered up this October about a scene with “Riley” being the first of the film – a scene which, thanks to the first-person perspective of “Bella” in the books, was as-yet-unseen for readers. Should be interesting, no?
