New On Set Interviews with the Cast

Check out new on set interviews with the cast & producers of The Host. Interviews with the cast include Saoirse Ronan, Max Iron, Jake Abel, Boyd Holbrook, William Hurt, and Chandler Canterbury. I had some difficulty watching the second Ronan and William Hurt videos. I will try to fix them if the problem persists.
*I have not watched all the interviews, so I cannot comment on spoilers.*

Third Clip from 'The Host'- "It"

SheKnows Entertainment debuted a brand new clip from The Host featuring Jared and Ian arguing over Wanda's motives . The ad that plays before the video is large, but once the video begins, it is an appropriate size. You can watch the video after the break or here.

"My First Time" with Max Irons & Jake Abel

Max Irons and Jake Abel discuss their first loves (they're not what you think), who they would save in an alien invasion, and what it was like to work with Stephenie Meyer with HLN.

On their first loves:
Jake Abel: "My first love was baseball. I wanted to be a professional baseball player when I was a kid. I had the same feeling about what I do now that I did as a kid playing baseball. 

Max Irons: "Apparently, when I was young, I used to get very sad and I'd cry for them a lot - bellmen at hotels. I figured that people were coming and going, but no one ever stopped to hang out with them."

Who Max would save in an alien invasion:
Max Irons: "It wouldn't be a bellman! That's difficult - my mother and father? But then my brother, he's toast... You know what, they've had a stab at life - I'll take my brother!"

On working with Stephenie Meyer:
Jake Abel: "Stephenie was on set quite a bit, but she was very much in the background. She was only there if you sought her out."

Max Irons: "And she trusted us. We'd go to her and say, 'Stephanie, give us a piece of advice. Are we doing this scene right?' And she'd say, 'Just go with your instincts.'"

New Character Poster- Ian


Stephenie Meyer also shared a few words about the character on her site:
Ian has been masterfully brought to life by the talented Jake Abel, with all of his complex choices and emotional evolutions. (It's really too bad Jake is so very unattractive, right? But his audition was amazing, and we decided to overlook his shortcomings in favor of his skill.) 
One of my favorite things about Ian-the-character was that he was never meant to be more than a second tier bad guy. He was supposed to stay in the shadows behind his brother, Kyle, and be menacing. Glower and shake his fist, that kind of thing. But—as sometimes happens—Ian started to think for himself. (Most of the other authors I've spoken with have had the same experience, and it's always a favorite—characters who seem to develop independent of the creator, springing into existence with almost no effort on the writer's part.) 
So Ian became the first human, aside from Jeb, who started to see Wanda-the-individual rather than Wanda-the-alien-invader, and he traded in his small role as a bad guy for one of the romantic leads. Well played, Ian. Well played.
Check out all three character posters together. Just one more to complete the set.

Movie-Tie In Edition Now Available with New Images

UPDATE: It looks like the second tie-in edition has the same cover and images on the back, it is just a smaller size. Overstock has changed their image on the 2nd version to the one seen below, but the Target one is still a different image. 

Two movie tie-in editions of The Host were released today. For those who do not know, movie tie-in novels generally replace the regular cover with a movie poster or other promotional images.

The edition I purchased has the same content as a previous paperback release: bonus chapter, reading guide, and Stephenie Meyer's annotated playlist.

The back cover has a new still of Wanda & Ian and one still previously seen on the back cover of the Illustrated Movie Companion. 

Check out the "Purchase The Host Books" page for links to order. Copies may also be available at your local stores (I purchased mine at Target). The tie-in audiobook will also be available later this month (January 15th).
