Taylor Swift was apparently rejected from a role as an extra in Twilight: New Moon as the director thought her appearance would steal focus from the rest of the film.
“I kick myself for it too, because – I was like, wow, I could’ve been hanging out with Taylor Swift.”
In a new interview, Chris Weitz, who directed the second Twilight film, revealed that he reluctantly had to deny her the part of an extra in the background.
New Moon went on to make £11.68m at the box office on its opening weekend in the UK and was one of the most successful films of 2009.
