In the run up to New Moon we saw so many stills, watched so many clips and read so many interviews that we felt like we’d seen the film before it ever hit theatres. This time round it’s different, there are clips, stills and interviews of course but they’re spaced out and don’t give away too much. So each new clip is extra exciting, and this one is going to be super special. Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner will be attending this years’ MTV Movie Awards and bringing with them a brand new exclusive clip from The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.

The awards, which are hosted by actor and comedian Aziz Ansari, will also feature Chaske Spencer (Sam Uley) as the official MTV International Guest Red Carpet Correspondent. Here’s what the press release says:

Giving fans worldwide more of the beloved vampire film franchise they adore and vote tirelessly for each year, MTV today announced that Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner are confirmed to present an exclusive scene from the highly anticipated summer blockbuster “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse” (in theaters June 30, 2010) at the “2010 MTV Movie Awards.” “Twi-Hards” will get a first look at a never-before-seen scene from the next installment of Summit Entertainment’s vampire love story movie phenomenon and the network will send their already heightened excitement into overdrive as a member of “The Twilight Saga” wolf pack hits the red carpet. “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse” cast member Chaske Spencer will serve as the official MTV International “2010 MTV Movie Awards” guest red carpet correspondent. Spencer – who stars as werewolf Sam Uley in “The Twilight Saga” – will man the mike on the red carpet as part of a special edition of “MTV At The Movies,” which will bring audiences outside the United States closer to the biggest names in the industry and the most talked about moments as part of MTV’s global coverage of the “2010 MTV Movie Awards.” Hosted by Aziz Ansari, the “2010 MTV Movie Awards” will be broadcast LIVE from the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City, CA on Sunday, June 6 at 9p.m./8p.m.C.

After “Twilight” swept the “2009 MTV Movie Awards” with five popcorn awards in the “BEST MOVIE,” “BEST FEMALE PEFORMANCE,” “BREAKTHROUGH PERFORMANCE MALE,” “BEST KISS” AND “BEST FIGHT” categories, “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” is nominated in five award categories this year. Devoted “Twilight” fans voted through the roof to have the feature film included in the 2010 list of final nominated theatricals, actors and moments, which puts the mega-movie in a dead heat against the global smash hit “Avatar.” It’s anyone’s and any film’s game as the MTV fans hold the destiny of the golden popcorn awards in their hands. From May 12 – June 5, viewers can visit MovieAwards.MTV.com to vote to make winners of their favorite nominated films, movie moments and actors.

The Twilight Saga: New Moon is nominated for five awards at this years event; Best Movie, Best Female Performance (Kristen Stewart), Best Male Performance (Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner), Best Kiss (Stewart and Pattinson) and Global Superstar (a new category this year for which Stewart, Pattinson and Lautner are all nominated). The only film to beat it in nominations is The Hangover which got six, let’s hope New Moon wins them all! The MTV Movie Awards will take place on Sunday 6th June.
