Mia Maestro joins Oliver Stone’s SAVAGES

Mia Maestro is about to make a splash in the upcoming film of THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN as the character Carmen, one of the many vampires we are sure to see in the film. She isn't looking to go anywhere after the film comes out, though, and is already starting to set up other roles in some varied films.

You can now expect to see her in the upcoming Oliver Stone film, SAVAGES.

The film has a pretty impressive ensemble cast lined up already, with Emile Hirsch (INTO THE WILD) and Aaron Johnson (KICK-ASS) as two marijuana kingpins living in Laguna Beach. When their friend, played by Blake Lively (GREEN LANTERN), is kidnapped, they are blackmailed into helping out the Baja Cartel. Other cast members include Benicio Del Toro, Uma Thurman, and John Travolta. Maestro will play Del Toro's wife in the film, a woman who is seemingly a soccer mom, yet has a dark gang-riddled past.

Crime movies always end up being immensely engaging to me, so it isn't hard to get excited about this film. It certainly helps too that Oliver Stone will be behind the picture, as he has a way of bringing the best out of a movie with his unique brand of filmmaking.

The wait for this movie won't be easy, can you handle it?

    Maestro teaming with Oliver Stone complements her
    tremendously and then we add in Twilight. Oliver Stone simply amazes me as a
    Director and always has; he is risky and puts all he is into his work. I love
    writing about film on my blog which is an open discussion type forum and the
    fact that Stone is putting out a new film is causing a real stir around our
    little community.  Due to my joy of
    writing and the topics therein I required resources that would allow me the
    movie and TV options necessary to fulfill my needs. It was a bit shocking that
    Direct TV requires an online rebate application to be submitted just to get new
    customer promotions which take 6-8 weeks. Plus there are no extras for the
    basic package if that is all I can afford. Meaning no free HD for life, or an
    upgrade to a DVR should I need one or premium movie channels once I’m a
    customer as I found with Dish Network once a customer. This would not work due
    to the type of writing I do which is all based off movies and the actors
    surrounding them. I also found out that with Dish Network I can get more
    programming and movie channels for far less money plus a free Sling Adapter
    which fits me as I travel a lot and need to bring my services with me. I ended
    up changing jobs and started working for Dish Network, still traveling a lot
    but understanding better how all this is possible. http://www.besttvforme.com/
