My experience as an extra on this film was quite incredible, though I did not directly meet with the actors--mind you all, we extras were told to "respect their space" and to not let our surprise get the best of us. Though I was not part of the DANCE OFF, I did see it from the sidelines--where nearly twenty other extras were sitting while it took place--we applauded it. Besides, none of us were quite good dancers, ha!

Who wins between Emmet and Felix? In the outline of the script that I received, Emmet is nearly killed by Felix but his character was strong enough to thwart off Felix's fighting tactics. While I was on set with numerous extras on the sidelines, director Bill Condon had them (FELIX AND EMMET) film a take that depicted Emmett being repeatedly slammed into the ground by Felix; much like what happened with Edward in New Moon. Unfortunately, as Stephenie Meyer has said to her readers, Felix is the strongest vampire in her fictional universe. There was even talk on set about rewriting this particular take and having Emmett killed off by Felix in a vicious manner--however, this was dismissed at the kind request of Meyer herself.

I realize that most of you must have so many questions on your mind about the battle sequence. I will answer them all to the best of my ability.

Sincerely, Jennifer Bontempo.
