He has starred on Broadway and in London's West End. His TV work includes noteworthy runs on The West Wing and Alias.

Here's a short Extra TV clip featuring Edward and Bella in the upcoming film "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" based on the novel by Stephenie Meyer.

Taylor Lautner once demanded a " double banger " in his TV contract -- and while a "DB" involves undressing next to another person, it's not nearly as saucy as it sounds.

Is it just me, or does it seem like The Forgotten kind of snuck onto the fall TV schedule? Like it picked a quiet little corner opposite the much-more hyped The Good Wife , and Jay Leno doing all he can to keep a network afloat? I point out the oddity of it because Christian Slater is in the lead role.
