Twilight Cast 411: Edi Gathegi

Just a few more days to go...

Until all the hype that is Twilight will reveal itself on the big screen!  To keep your Crepúsculo cravings at bay,  we've got some more insider dish on the cast:

This week MTV News sat with the much-sought-after Edi Gathegi who plays "bad vampire" Laurent. If you are not familiar with him, get into it! Word is he becomes an important player in the upcoming Twilight sequels. The question is... how bad is this Laurent guy after all?

The 29-year-old NYU grad had this to say about his character:

Laurent is not necessarily an evil vampire. He just has to do that because that's what nature requires him to do. James is the evil one...

Phew, thank goodness we cleared that up! Check out what Edi had to say about working with Cam Gigandet, wearing Catherine Hardwicke’s clothes and wiping out during a stunt: [MTV News]
