Twilight cast arrives in Vancouver to rehearse but Rob Pattinson

Twilight cast arrives in Vancouver to rehearse but Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart remain in LA

With just twelve days left before the third installment of the Twilight Saga: Eclipse begins filming, the cast has begun to descend into Vancouver, B.C. Ashley Greene, Kellan Lutz, Nikki Reed, newcomer Bryce Dallas Howard, and Taylor Lautner have all been spotted in town, but the two main stars of the film -and the subjects of a tabloid romance- have yet to appear. Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are in LA, and only one has a valid excuse to be there!

Stewart is still filming the Joan Jett biopic, The Runaways, with another Twilight Saga costar, Dakota Fanning.

Pattinson recently wrapped up filming in New York City for the movie Remember Me and flew into LAX on Tuesday. Stewart and Pattinson have long been rumored to be a couple and this little side trip of Pattinson's prior to heading to Vancouver will likely keep the rumor mill spinning!

Taylor Lautner is the latest star to arrive in Vancouver. He flew in today from Los Angeles, where he was recently filming the movie Valentine's Day, an ensemble rom-com starring the likes of Emma Roberts, Taylor Swift, and some big name stars like Jennifer Garner, Anne Hathaway, Bradley Cooper, and more. Lautner told Radar that he is "very excited" to work on Eclipse, which should have a lot of action in it.

At this point, much of the cast will spend a week or so in fight training to prepare for the movie's action scenes. The climactic point of the movie is when the vampire Victoria (recently recast to Howard) brings her newborn vampire army to hunt down Bella (Stewart), who is defended by a mix of vampires and werewolves. Filming starts on August 17 and should last about three months. While in town, it's a safe bet that some lucky Canadians and tourists will see the Twilight cast at places like the Blue Water Cafe + Raw Bar, Glowbal Grill and Satay Bar, and the Metropole during their downtime.
