You play Caius, one of the three powerful vampires who rule the Volturi. But we only get to see you briefly, at the end of New Moon. Is it challenging to infuse your character with all of the back story and motivations that he has when you have limited screen time?
Jamie Campbell-Bower: Well, it wasn’t difficult because there’s so much back story, particularly to the Volturi. We all knew what we were there for, we knew what we were doing. You know, the thing about the Volturi is that they’re introduced in the second film and then come the fourth book, that’s where the meatiness lies. So it’s an introduction, effectively. But I wasn’t disappointed; I knew exactly what I was going to be doing when I got the script. I’m just psyched to be involved in it.
“The 20-year-old actor, who plays Caius in the ‘Twilight’ sequel, says he hates watching his own acting. With his platinum-blond locks, blood-red eyes and ghost-pale complexion, the vampire Caius is quite a sight to behold. But the actor playing him in “New Moon,” 20-year-old Jamie Campbell Bower, is not looking forward at all to taking in his big-screen counterpart.
“I hate that,” he told MTV News. “I don’t like to see myself up onscreen at all.”
Q: What music is on your iPod playlist?
Burke: I have a huge, hugely eclectic collection. There’s a lot of the stuff that’s swimming out there right now. I’m a big Kings of Leon fan, then I like some of the older [stuff]. I like old Billy Joel, old Elton John. I’m a huge Tom Waits fan. I have his entire collection. And a lot of Peter Murphy’s stuff with Bauhaus. Then the other side of that, I like country music as well. I’ve got a lot of country music on there. So, it runs the gamut.

Jamie (Caius) was at the Sitges Film Festival recently and he spoke about his role in Deathly Hallows and New Moon:
Are you ready to face the phenomenon of fans as massive as the inherent ‘Twilight’?
“I’m prepared for anything, I’ll take it as it comes. In fact do not consider myself a celebrity and I do not understand what is going on. It is an honor that people want to take pictures with me and ask me for autographs, but for me it is incomprehensible. “
