New Moon is your first film. What was the casting process like?

They had an open casting call here in Phoenix, and I auditioned. I was going to
church with my mom out in Cave Creek, and Stephenie Meyer goes to church with her. She kind of helped me out on that one.

Did Stephenie suggest you?

Yes, she told production, I think, and got me some sides to do the audition.

What was your favorite scene to shoot?

I call it the “muffin scene.” It’s right after Bella finds out we’re all werewolves, and we take her to Emily’s house while Jacob, Paul, and Sam are off in the woods taking care of some wolf business.

And you eat muffins.

Yeah. A lot.

What kind?

Some weird bran muffins. They didn’t taste so good!

What’s it been like filming the third installment, Eclipse?

It was a lot more fun being with the guys this time around. We already knew each other, had new stuff to talk about, a new director, and we actually had some scenes with the Cullens [the saga’s main vampire clan].

MTV has a new interview with Kiowa where he talks about working out and how to tell which wolf is which pack member.

MTV: Now that filming is done, how do you think “New Moon” is going to turn out, particularly your scenes?

Gordon: Well, our scenes were the most fun, I think, out of the whole movie, probably. I’m looking forward to seeing it in completion, because it looks great from what I’ve seen — all the photos, everything looks awesome.

MTV: The movie hasn’t even come out yet! Does that put extra pressure on you to make sure your performance doesn’t suck?

Gordon: Yeah, then they’re gonna [want to remove the tattoos]. Maybe she’d cut it off. [Laughs.]

MTV: We’ve seen Taylor as a wolf in the “New Moon” trailer, but what are the rest of you guys going to look like?

Gordon: Well, we all look like brothers, so [we'll look similar], but we all have our own colors, so you can [tell which is which]. It’s distinctive.

MTV has an interview with Kiowa Gordon where he talks about the scene in New Moon where the pack chows down on Emily’s muffins. xD

As those who have read the Stephenie Meyer novels know, this inserted scene is rife with dramatic and humorous possibilities. At some point in the saga, Sam Uley imprints on Emily — the second cousin of high school sweetheart Leah Clearwater — leaving Leah more than a tad bitter. The scene takes place on the La Push reservation, with many of the key Quileute characters interacting while they partake in their bountiful breakfast. But why muffins?

“We like muffins,” Gordon said, revealing that the Quileute wolves have a taste for more than vampire flesh.

“The muffin scene?” Taylor Lautner grinned when we told him of Gordon’s comments. “I didn’t have the pleasure to enjoy any muffins.

“When they were eating their funny little muffins, I was standing in the back, all pissed off,” Lautner said of the scene, which depicts Jacob as not being too thrilled with the whole imprinting/ turning-into-a-wolf drama. “So I just got to watch them eat their muffins.”

MTV caught up with Kiowa Gordon at the premiere of Bandslam and he talked about the wolfpack as well as showed us a wolf noise that he gets to make in New Moon! It’s not a howl or a growl… but it’s something!

MTV: Break down the wolf pack for us.

Gordon: Alright, the head is Sam Uley — he’s played by Chaske Spencer, who is a great guy. He’s the leader of the pack, he runs us and helps us go through our phase. Next is Jared — he transforms next, and he’s the fun boy, the jokester. He’s played by Bronson Pelletier, and he’s a funny guy too — he’s awesome, we became really close. And Alex Meraz plays Paul — he’s the hotheaded, ferocious guy that always wants to be in the middle of the action, and he’s the go-to guy if Sam needs something taken care of.

MTV: Taylor has said that he gets to speak the Native-American language of the tribe a bit in “New Moon.” Do you?

Gordon: No, I would just — we make noises.

MTV: Noises? Can you give us an example?

Gordon: Hopefully I won’t get in trouble for this. But yeah, [there's a scene where] we get out of the car, and we have to do this call — this signal that we’re home. Me and Jared, we go [he unleashes a loud, yipping noise]. It’s kinda funny. But it’s awesome.
