PopWrap: When we spoke back in 2008, “Twilight” had yet to come out — what have the last two years been like for you?
Kellan Lutz: Life flies by man. You look back and think, “God, what have I done in the last two years [laughs].” But I love making movies and I feel so blessed for someone who didn’t dream of ever being an actor. If I don’t win an Oscar, I won’t cry a river … but it would be amazing [laughs].
PW: What attracted you to “Meskada?”
Kellan: It’s just so different from anything I’ve ever done. I’ve been a part of these commercial movies, like the “Twilight” saga, so I wanted to play something that was real. Something that may not bring in a huge audience, but had a very well written story to tell. Plus, I grew up in a small farming town in Iowa, and the conflict that they go through with jobs disappearing is very real, so I really liked that about the script.
PW: But there are a lot of younger male characters in the film — what appealed to you in particular about Eddie?
Kellan: He is a very simple character, he’s just trying to help out his friend – who he sees like a brother – when he gets pulled into this whirlwind of a mistake. He gets caught up in something bad by trying to do something good.
