Robert Pattinson was surely not let down by his fans as he recently topped Glamour’s 50 Sexiest Men of 2010 poll, marking his second year in a row landing the number one spot on the list. The 24-year-old heartthrob was accompanied by his “Twilight” co-stars, Taylor Lautner and Kellan Lutz, who landed on number two and five respectively.
And blood-sucking hunks were apparently dominating ladies this year as “The Vampire Diaries” star, Ian Somerhalder, ranked in number three, beating out vampire contender Lutz. Another blood-sucker who made his way to the list was “The Twilight Saga’s Eclipse” actor Xavier Samuel.
Moreover, “Pirates of the Caribbean” star Johnny Depp, who is also dubbed People magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive, secured the sixth place, followed by 16-year-old sensational singer Justin Bieber who came in at seventh place.

Australian actor Xavier Samuel was stunned to land a role in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse – because he’d sent countless audition tapes to the U.S. in an effort to break into Hollywood.
The 26 year old has enjoyed limited fame in his native country but has never managed to crack America, despite numerous tryouts for films.
He sent in a tape to audition for the third vampire movie in the franchise – and was shocked to receive a response from casting agents.
Samuel tells Interview magazine, “It’s kind of like being struck by lightning in a way, because it all seems so improbable.
“I’ve been doing American auditions for a while, and it always felt sort of like sending these audition tapes off into the ether. So just hearing anything back from anyone was kind of startling.”

Single? Xavier Samuel (aka Riley in new Twilight movie Eclipse), turned up to the London premiere with Iranian girlfriend Shermine Shahrivar. Sorry folks…
See Him Next: Xavier is currently in the process of filming Anonymous, a political thriller that attempts to discover who really wrote the works of Shakespeare. Sounds a tad heavier

When Australian actor Xavier Samuel shipped off an audition tape to “Twilight” producers, insta-fame seemed oceans away.
“It’s kind of strange, because you send them off into oblivion and you don’t know if anyone watches them,” says Samuel, 26.
Fast-forward to the “Eclipse” premiere, where thousands of fans are not only screaming but are screaming for him.
“It’s kind of 360 degrees of hysteria,” Samuel says just hours before the Los Angeles premiere of the third film installment of Stephenie Meyer’s blockbuster series. “The sound (of Twilight’s fans) does really knock you off your feet.”
Samuel steals not just the first five minutes of the film but much of its finale. He plays newborn vampire Riley Biers, who, alongside vengeful vamp Victoria, leads a bloodthirsty army of young vampires with one goal: killing human Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) and those who protect her. • Read full story…

You can learn a lot about a character — and an actor — talking to a film’s costume designer. Here, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse‘s Tish Monaghan reveals a few secrets from the wardrobe closets:
• Riley (Xavier Samuel) has great taste in victims: “The sensibility of all of the newborns, including Riley, is that they’re scavengers. They’re going to steal pieces from whomever they find. Riley just happened to find somebody who was wearing a G-Star jacket and some really cool jeans,” Monaghan says, with a laugh. “Once he was turned, I just wanted to put him in something that was edgy and very contemporary. We wanted to make him young and powerful but still have this kind of dark sexiness to him. We found this great G-Star jacket for him and tight, tight jeans and a beautiful Paul Smith shirt. And then he had one other change after that, which was the same jacket and tight reddish maroon jeans, which for us was important because once he got into battle with the Cullens and the werewolves, we had to separate the newborns from the Cullens color-wise. We had to make sure that there wasn’t any confusion as to who was on whose team when a body was flying through the air. So with the Cullens, we intentionally put them in black, dark navy or dark gray. With the newborns, we put them in earth tones and hints of brighter colors.”

When Australian actor Xavier Samuel shipped off an audition tape to Twilight producers, insta-fame seemed oceans away.
“It’s kind of strange because you send them off into oblivion and you don’t know if anyone watches them,” says Samuel, 26.
That was last year.
Fast-forward to the Eclipse premiere, where thousands of fans are not only screaming but are screaming for him. “It’s kind of 360 degrees of hysteria,” Samuel says just hours before the Los Angeles premiere of the third film installment of Stephenie Meyer’s blockbuster series. “The sound (of Twilight’s fans) does really knock you off your feet.”
Samuel steals not only the first five minutes of one of most anticipated movies of the summer, but much of its finale. He plays newborn vampire Riley Biers, who, alongside vengeful vamp Victoria, leads a bloodthirsty army of young vampires with one goal: killing human Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) and those who protect her. • Read full story…
