Stephenie Meyer talks about the movie AUSTENLAND, what she's working on now, writing and more!
To celebrate TOMORROW's release of the hilarious, and highly anticipated DVD for AUSTENLAND, a movie that Twilight & The Host author Stephenie Meyer's production company, Fickle Fish Films, produced based on Shannon Hale's book, AUSTENLAND (which we here on Mundie Moms loved), a few of us blog sites were invited to be apart of the AUSTENLAND party! Our #Jane'sNightIn parties were held this past Friday, and they not only included an earlier dvd viewing party of the movie itself, but a chat with the lovely Stephenie Meyer herself!!
THE PARTY
To celebrate the release of the DVD, we, along with a few other blog sites like Twilight Moms, Twilight Lexicon, Fangirlsh & Page to Premiere, where invited to host #Jane'sNightIn parties and chat live with Stephenie Meyer herself!!! I know! This is a girl's night that can't be topped. You can find out about the parties via Stephenie Meyer's site HERE & see some of the pics I posted from my party here on Instagram.
The Live Interview
Stephenie Meyer is one of the coolest people. Really, she is. This is not my first time talking to her, and I hope it's not my last. She is so much fun to chat with. She's hilarious, and a genuinely over all extremely nice person. I'll admit, it was a little hard to rein in my inner fangirl when it came to having face time with her.
Here are a few of the questions I asked her, which you'll here in the video below, and a quick paraphrase of her answers. *see the video below to hear her full answers*
* Stephenie what was your favorite part from the book that made it into the movie?
SM- Filming the play. It was condescended from the book for the movie.
* What was one of your favorite moments on set?
SM- One of her favorite things about it, was living on the estate. Walking through the English country side. Jennifer Coolidge was so funny.
* Was there any improv or did you still to the script?
SM- There was a lot of improv. Half of what got put into the movie was half improv and half script.
* Are you planning on making Midnight in Austenland into a movie?
SM- I would love to do if it was possible. It's my favorite book of the two novels.
* What film projects are you working on now?
SM- Can't talk about her new acquisition. Working on Anna Dressed in Blood. Getting close to moving into production.
Check it out!
You can watch/listen to the 20 minute interview featuring myself and two other fan sites. Please note, yes those are Star Wars sheets hanging in my background. My awesome shades fell of the window that's all I had to cover the window with, which also happened to be the best place in my house lighting wise.
THANK YOU to Stephenie & her team, and Bekah & Nikki for inviting us to be apart of unforgettable #Jane'sNightIn!
I highly recommend picking up this DVD TOMORROW! I've not laughed so hard in a long time at a movie. This movie is HILARIOUS! Check out my review of the movie.
