Following the release of the second instalment of the Twilight saga ‘New Moon’ it has been reported that one of the stars from the show had to go into rehab before beginning filming the movie.

The actor who plays Sam Uley had to check himself into rehab before doing the film.

The rehab was in Washington. The centre was the Northwest Indian treatment.

The rehab centre a facility for Native Americans.

Ray Martins claims that he himself was a patient at the rehab centre at the same time and alleges that the actor feared that he would lose the part if he did not clean up quickly

Martin said to the National Enquirer,

“Chaske confided to me that he was up for a role in a ‘really big movie’ and didn’t want to screw it up.”

“He said, ‘If anyone finds out I’m here, it would be the worst thing in the world. It could ruin my career!’”

The actor spent five weeks in the centre before leaving sober and staying that way ever since.

Martin says he is happy that the actor got the role saying

“I don’t think Chaske could have done the film if he hadn’t gone through rehab first. He got a new lease on life, and then New Moon.”
