New Moon costars Chaske Spencer, Tinsel Korey, Gil Birmingham and Alex Meraz snap a pic together as they attend a screening of their new flick at the closing night gala of the 6th Annual Red Nation Film Festival in Hollywood on Wednesday night (November 18).

Chaske caught up with Life & Style mag recently to chat about his new role.

He shared about taking the role of leader of the wolf pack to heart, “I was the older brother or father figure. I’m very protective of Taylor Lautner, Alex Meraz and Kiowa Gordon. We can get on each other’s nerves, but it’s just like a family.”

He also dished on the midnight competitions between himself, Taylor and Robert Pattinson, saying, “We were all really competitive and supportive of one another. One time, I had the highest score on this rowing machine, and the next day I came in and Rob had beaten me — he worked out at night, and the wolves came in during the day. I beat him again, but on the last day of shooting, I came in and he’d beaten me by a second.”
