Production Vans Move Possible Props in Montepulciano, Italy

The faux St. Marcus Day Festival in New Moon, which will involve up to 1500 extras, has begun to ramp up. Extras in red garb have started appearing on the streets, as recent pics from TwilightersItalia show. They say–

Each one of them was clad in red. Hoods, robes, t-shirt, caps…everything was red! They couldn’t really say anyhing because the producers have told them that if they were caught they would be expelled from the set and nobody wants to lose the chance to be in the movie.

It’s said that this afternoon there was a little commotion and they think Robert Pattinson was there, but nobody would say that plainly. There are no pictures of him at the airport because he went out through a side exit allowed to the airport staff only.

Today the porsche crew finished working and, from what we understood, tomorrow Robert Pattinson himself will shoot some scene, maybe something related to Edward’s desperation before the Volturi’s verdict.

It won’t be Kristen Stewart to jump in the fountain but her stunt double, an Italian girl. Right now, Alan Cappelli, the stunt double for Robert Pattinson is waiting in his car to be called to set. We don’t know though what scene they’ll shoot.

Spoiler:

A visitor to Montepulciano Italy captured these shots of the fabled twin set of yellow Porsches for Alice’s fateful drive in New Moon. They are parked near a production area which seems to be busy with a tent of crew members working behind the scenes.

[thanks, Ann for the pics!]

Here’s a fan report:

“The girl is Kristen. She was with Rob, Charlie and Ashley today. In the photos they are visiting a place. They were not in Montepulciano today but they were visiting other places in Tuscany. Nobody has seen Nikki and I think that Kellan is not in Italy. I think the fans have seen Daniel Cudmore (Felix) instead. Today Daniel was in Piazza Grande with the director of the film.
The pictures were purposely blurred because those who took them didn’t want to give away their location. The full pics will be published on May 30th according to the site. And to those saying that isn’t Kristen because she is wearing a dress, let me tell you that it is a thousand degrees today in Italy. The girl would die in her usual jeans and we all know that if she HAS to wear a dress K will go for the short and strapless ones.
It looks like they all went sightseeing this afternoon and to a museum and were basically mobbed by Twifans. About 4 hours ago she said they were at the bar having drinks and Rob had gotten mobbed getting there. There were girls in the bar just staring scarily at him! In response to someone she replied that it was just Rob/Kristen and some crew. Then they all had to move back to the hotel I’m assuming because of the fans but she said it was unbelievable how many followed them. Three hours ago she was turning in due to a long day of filming tomorrow and no other mention of Rob/Kristen. I’m hoping someone asks her but so far it seems like no one wants to scare her off or force her to lock her account! I’ll keep an eye on it though. “

oh yeah, one more with a better sight

Monday: Rehearsal Day
@vampirefreak101 has sent us this new picture of what's going on today in Montepulciano. In an earlier tweet she broke down the NM filming schedule for the week: "Extras rehearsing today, volturi scenes tues, reunion in square wed/thurs, any re takes fri". But possibly better describing this picture is the tweet from @yunfa who is also sending us reports: "production vans outside the city hall preparing interior scene/s with Volturi (Montepulciano)". If you repost picture please credit RobPattzNews & @vampirefreak101.

Maybe it'll be so hot we'll get to see Rob in the leather thong we discussed in another thread

It looks like a vampire wannabe.

wow look at the crowds!!
And seriously what is that weird looking thing? A prop for the cellar??

They have this celebration so maybe it's a part of celebration hehe

Yeah, there are sooooo many ppl. not sure how they will film it lol

Exactly, I mean filming with those sort of crowds must be really difficult!
