And, as if enough footage hasn’t been released/leaked, some of the cast are set to premiere brand-new footage at MTV’s Halloween Fest on October 30th 9/8 central.

KStew, RPattz, TLaut, NReed, KLutz and AGreene are all scheduled to appear.

Speaking of released footage, some new TV spots debuted this week.

According to David Slade’s twitter, filming on “Eclipse” has wrapped for several actors and “its getting a lot less crowded in Forks.”

 He says all shooting should be complete in few days, but there’s still 8 months of post-production ahead. Among the actors heading home are Elizabeth Reaser (Esme), Anna Kendrick (Jessica) and Christian Serratos (Angela).

And, finally, for some eye candy head here and here for some TLaut and KLutz deliciousness
