Edi Gathegi confirms that the Twilight follow up New Moon starts shooting in March. He says he will reprise his role as the nomadic rogue vampire Laurent in the next film version directed by Chris Weitz and based on the Stephenie Meyer saga.

Gathegi, who's currently promoting his part as Deputy Martin in the just released My Bloody Valentine 3D, reports that the new vampire movie would be shooting in Vancouver, Rome and Los Angeles.

"I am looking forward to working with Chris Weitz," notes Gathegi. And while Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke is a Gathegi friend, he maintains there was no hard feelings when the director decided not to return for the next one. "It was a mutual decision," he adds. "I don't think she'd want me to feel sorry for her."

Despite Twilight's mediocre reviews, Hardwicke's vampire picture went on to surprise pundits earning more than US $303 million world wide, nearly double the total anticipated for the film that cost $37 million to make.

As it is, Gathegi says he feels overwhelmed by all things Twilight, first making the film in early 2008 and then promoting it around the globe after the movie was released in November.

"Nothing lasts forever," says the 29-year-old actor who was previously most recognized for his Dr. Cole part in the hit series House. "So I am going to enjoy it all over again, and this time I am actually looking forward to it."

The bonus for Gathegi is that Twilight fanatics usually don't know who he is. "I don't have my character's dreads so I can get away with having dinner or taking in a movie," he says smiling.

We'll see how long that lasts.
