Hollywood.com spoke to Charlie Bewley about his part as Demetri in The Twilight Saga: New Moon.

Charlie Bewley won’t say how old he is.

He also won’t elaborate on the details of his seemingly scandal-heavy past, which he alludes to frequently, nebulously describing it as “erratic, risky, bread-line. High highs, low lows.”  In passing, he mentions turbulent romances and family dramas, and says he doesn’t really drink anymore, but keeps mum on the reasons why.  He is decidedly mysterious.  ”I have to be,” Bewley says.

Whats known is that Bewley is a British expat who worked several snow seasons in ski mecca Whistler after immigrating to Canada several years ago.  For a time, he supported himself by driving a cab (“I had the most money out of all my friends”) and later moved to Vancouver, to pursue his acting career.  The choice necessitated another move to Los Angeles in September of this year.

This is, of course, because Bewley plays the Volturi vampire Demetri, in the upcoming New Moon Movie.

Bewley’s role in New Moon is his first professional acting gig, however, he says he doesn’t feel “suddenly famous”.

“Italy was a dream. Very surreal,” says Bewley.  ”I think everyone there, no matter who it was, Rob [Pattinson], Kristen [Stewart], Chris [Weitz] or anyone else would say that it was an experience that they may never go through again.  The hospitality of the whole thing, the way they treated us, the whole setting was so magnificent.”

So, perhaps he is taking the part of Demetri just a little too serious, or perhaps being all mysterious, is the best defense for when he gets chased by the fans and pappz.
