Goth Girls Everywhere Cry a Little. More. Peter Murphy Joins Twilight.

Twilight: New Moon opens this Friday, November 20 but Eclipse, the third film in the series, is currently in post-production–gearing up for a June 30, 2010 release date. With the insane popularity of the films it’s no surprise that people are already starting to talk about Eclipse. MTV recently reported that Goth God Peter Murphy from Bauhaus will be making a camera appearance in the film. The next sound you hear will be my heart falling on the floor.

It’s probably no surprise that I have had an infatuation for all things Bauhaus and Peter for ages. From the moment I heard the Mask album way back when, to the first time I saw Peter in The Hunger I have been a huge fan. It just feels a little weird to think about him in the film. So what’s his role?

Actor Billy Burke, who plays big daddy Swan in the Twilight series, told MTV:

“[Peter Murphy] plays a vampire in a flashback sequence. I didn’t get to see any of it, but all reports from the director David Slade [30 Days of Night] and everyone around say he just kicked ass. I’m real excited to see it … [His role] started out as an old Spanish, sort of unrelated vampire, in a flashback sequence. Billy Black’s talking and telling the story of the werewolves, how they evolved, and how they met the vampires and stuff. [Murphy's cameo is] in a sequence that involves that.”

Peter seems like a really laid back guy which is why I’m sure he agreed to do a Twilight cameo. Any Bauhaus fans have something to say about all this? Speak up and drop me a comment. And now this is my shameless opportunity to post a Bauhaus video just cuz.
