MTV has an interview with Peter Facinelli. In the interview he talks about how he got one of Carlisle’s lines from the book into the script.
Read the entire interview here.
Here is an excerpt from the interview:
MTV: Well, we certainly don’t want to reduce you to a Vegas-like thing. Like you’re doing an Elvis imitation.
Facinelli: [Laughs.] No, no. Really, in order to play those roles, you have to get into the whole spirit of the character. I have to have on my white makeup and my contact lenses, otherwise it just doesn’t work. Otherwise, it looks like Peter Facinelli trying to play something; it’s weird. But I could say that’s one of my favorite lines from “New Moon”: “Like everything else in life, I just had to decide what to do with what I was given.” But that’s me saying it, not Carlisle. [In "New Moon"] Carlisle says it, and it’s very Carlisle-esque.
MTV: Well, then, tell us about the day you got to deliver the line on the “New Moon” set. Was it everything you had hoped it would be?
Facinelli: I hope so. God, I hope so. You know, it was a line that wasn’t in the script. It was in the book, and I asked Chris Weitz if we could put it in the movie, because I liked that line.
MTV: Really?
Facinelli: Yeah, and so we worked it into the stitching scene with Bella. It was in the book with Bella, when I was stitching her up. It’s just a line that I always liked.

yes! im glad he got that line in the book!!
