Greene, who played Alice Cullen in the film adaptations of the mega-popular "Twilight" series, will surely inspire a lot of glittery vampire-fueled nostalgia with the launch of her upcoming podcast!
"The Twilight Effect" will center around Green and her co-host Melanie Howe, as they travel back to the late 2000s and early 2010s, and rewatch the series. Diving back into her role as Alice Cullen will surely inspire conversations that will add to the never-ending social media conversations and content celebrating "Twilight" and its place in popular culture!
According to Entertainment Weekly, Greene was inspired by "A [bit] of a resurgence of 'Twilight' because of it being on Netflix and now it's on Peacock. All of a sudden people were talking about this again and I started seeing some of our OG fans were rewatching but then we had this new slew of fans that were living it for the first time."
What's In Store For 'The Twilight Effect?'
Conversation related to the franchise has seemingly always been a topic of conversation for the cast members since the final film, "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2" was released almost a decade ago.
In fact, Robert Pattinson, who famously brought Edward Cullen to life, recently learned via a promotional interview for his latest film "The Batman" that his co-star Zoƫ Kravitz was not a "Twilight" stan.
While there hasn't been any official confirmation Pattinson will be a guest on "The Twilight Effect"- Greene was tight-lipped when asked by EW- there will surely be many more fun conversations and revelations from castmates!
Greene has been hard at work reuniting with old castmates and crafting those conversations. She said, "We've done a couple of episodes with my favorite cast members. It's really fun, you don't know what to expect..."
Once A Twi-Hard, Always A Twi-Hard!
Greene has always been keen on talking about the franchise that brought her most famous role.
She has never been shy about letting her "Twilight" fangirl side come out. In January, The Blast shared some insight into Greene's love for the series, and her love for the vampire who charmed and glared his way into hearts around the world, Edward Cullen!
Of Pattinson's character, she said, "I can relate with the fans as far as they're in love with the Edward character because he's literally the perfect being, and I totally get it."
In addition to the love Greene has for the "Twilight" characters, she holds an appreciation for her time spent filming the series, and the time she spent alongside her castmates. In fact, "The Twilight Effect" has given Green the opportunity to renew those bonds.
When asked about the dynamic between herself and her cast mates, she said, "At the end of the day, we all went through something together that a lot of people won't understand, so there's still that bond there, even if I haven't seen some of them in three, four years..."
"The Twilight Effect" will run for 30 episodes, and will premiere on March 15th!
