Rachel Bilson attended the Whitney Contemporaries Art Party at the Skylight Gallery in New York on Tuesday night (June 17th).
The Jumper actress looked cute in her bandage style dress. Speaking of Jumper, director Doug Liman has said he is considering doing a sequel to the hit movie.
Speaking to MSN News he said, “There are so many ideas - there’s a sequel book that has such a cool twist, so unexpected, that I almost thought about doing the sequel film first, I’ve never repeated myself but this one I could see doing a sequel and it being so original that maybe you wouldn’t even use the name Jumper. It’d be the same characters but it’d be an insult to what it could be to call it Jumper 2. I had so many ideas and this canvass was so big that I couldn’t possibly get them all into the first movie,” says Doug. “We also couldn’t afford it - this was actually fairly low budget for this kind of movie so that’s why we left the canvass open.”
Speaking about Rachel’s boyfriend and costar of the movie, Hayden Christensen, Liman had nothing but nice things to say “What I love about him is he’s complex, you actually don’t know if he’s a good guy or not. Hayden, for a filmmaker like me who is interested in the greys and the moral complexity of the world we’re living in right now, I couldn’t have had a better lead.”
Tell us, would you watch a Jumper 2?
Jumper actress Rachel Bilson sat down with MovieFone and answered some questions for them, Rahcel is currently promoting the release of Jumper on DVD, the movie is released on Tuesday (June 10th) and also stars her boyfriend Hayden Christensen.
On how she got the role in Jumper:
Doug Liman directed the pilot of a TV series I was on [’The O.C.’], so we met way back then and had a relationship. So he literally sent me a text message saying, “What are you doing?” I’m like, “I’m at my cousin’s wedding in Tennessee … What do you mean?” A week later he called me and asked me if I’d fly to Toronto and meet with him and Hayden. So it was very quick, and I jumped in kind of late.
On keeping in touch with her former OC castmates:
You know what? I haven’t seen anyone since the wrap party. Well, Mischa [Barton] I actually ran into. But I don’t keep in touch with anyone. I’d like to get together with Melinda Clarke and Kelly Rowan. We were all really close. I heard [Kelly] had a baby and I haven’t even spoken to her! I need to send her an email.
On reading blogs:
I try not to [read them]. I think Perez Hilton has a lot of negative stuff — more negative than positive, right? So I try not to focus on those things. I think he’s funny. I’ve never met him. I don’t really look at his site. Hopefully he doesn’t give me a penis or anything like that.
The cast of Jumper are in New York to promote the DVD release of the movie, the movie is out next Tuesday, June 10th.
The movie which stars Hayden Christensen, Rachel Bilson, Samuel L. Jackson and Jamie Bell. It’s about a man who can teleport himself anywhere in the world, but he soon learns people are out to kill him and other jumpers.
Bilson recently spoke about her upcoming fashion collection for DKNY Jeans, they are called Edie Rose. “I think there’s potential for it to be on-going, I’d definitely have an interest in continuing. We’ll see how it goes.”
Rachel is also going to be in the ad campaign, but don’t worry she didn’t sew the jeans herself, “I just had my first sewing lesson, my skirt came out 10 times too big, and it’s sort of a mess, but I did learn how to use a sewing machine. So I’m on my way.”
Enjoy the photos of Rachel arriving at JFK on Monday (June 2nd).
