Peter Facinelli Talks New Moon

Peter Facinelli is just as excited about New Moon as we are!

"You've got a little bit of a love triangle going on in this one," Facinelli said earlier this week at the premiere of his new Showtime series, Nurse Jackie. "You've got werewolves, you've got vampires, CGI. Stir it up all together, you've got New Moon."

Facinelli also revealed to me at the MTV Movie Awards that New Moon director Chris Weitz seems to be really gettin' into the flick.

"I always tell him, 'You remind me of Dr. Cullen,' because he's very thoughtful and always thinking and always calming," he said. "If there's any chaos going on, you can look to him and it's all calm, so he really is Dr. Carlisle Cullen."

"He even started wearing scarves," Facinelli continued. "I was like, 'Hey, you're stealing my thing, man.' "
