Peter Facinelli Wants To Suck Your Blood In 'Twilight'

Actor Peter Facinelli plays vampire Dr. Carlisle Cullen in the highly-anticipated movie Twilight, which premieres this Friday. Tune in tomorrow when Facinelli's co-star Taylor Lautner stops by the studio!

The movie is based on the popular book series of the same name by Stephenie Meyer. Fans are so excited for the movie that its soundtrack is sold out.

The film follows the first book and is about "Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) is a clumsy, kind hearted teenager with a knack for getting into trouble. Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) is an intelligent, good looking vampire who is trying to hide his secret. Against all odds, the two fall in love but will a pack of blood thirsty trackers and the disapproval of their family and friends separate them?" according to IMDB.

Facinelli stated that when he read the script to Twilight, he fell in love with it because "it reminded me of the old movies when vampires were mysterious and had sexual undertones, and it was more of a beautiful vampire tale instead of the horror genre."

A native of Ozone Park, Queens, Facinelli's other acting credits include The Scorpion King, Six Feet Under, Fastlane, Damages and An Unfinished Affair, where he met his wife Jennie Garth who is reprising her role as Kelly Taylor on the CW's 90210.
