While Kellan Lutz is definitely pumped for the premiere of New Moon, he recently admitted he's more excited about the third installment of the Twilight Saga: Eclipse! "Eclipse is a masculine movie," Kellan told E! News. "I love it. All the stunts I was able to do by myself. It's an action movie!"
Kellan also thinks Eclipse will get more fans to jump on the Twilight bandwagon.
"It's going to be one of those movies where guys who aren't fans of the Twilight series but like seeing a good kickass action movie are going to see it," Kellan explains. "And they're going to bring their girlfriends who are anti-Twilight because they don't want to be on that bandwagon. Then they're going to come and fall in love with it, too."

Ultimately, Kellan hopes to become an action hero himself.
"I have a great team and we're really focused on becoming that new action hero," he said. "I want to be Jason Bourne... and take over that franchise. I love doing stunts and shooting guns and doing fight scenes."
His muscular build would make fore a good action figure. As for his workout routine, Kellan said he is not a "workout fiend."
"I go to the gym maybe once or twice a week for 45 minutes," says the actor, who will also be seen in the upcoming remake of Nightmare on Elm Street. "I hate running. I eat whatever I want. I eat pizza all the time. I have a candy drawer."
Must be nice!
