LAPUSH — Gil Birmingham, who plays Billy Black in the three “Twilight” movies, will make a weekend appearance at Quileute Days, tribal spokeswoman Jackie Jacobs said.
Birmingham portrays the character who is the tribal chairman and the keeper of the legends of the Quileute in the film — not to mention being the father of Jacob, the teen werewolf vying for Bella’s heart.
“How wonderful to have Gil Birmingham, who portrays Council Chairman Billy Black in the ‘The Twilight Saga: Eclipse,’ meet the true Chairwoman Anna Rose Counsell-Geyer and the other members of the Quileute tribal Council — wow,” Jacobs said.
Birmingham will participate in the Saturday parade and meet with council and fans, but his schedule is not yet finalized, she said.
In addition to “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse,” Birmingham also appeared in “Twilight” and “The Twilight Saga: New Moon.”
Quileute Days will run Friday through Sunday and will include traditional tribal games, softball games, a parade, vendors and more.
The annual event is free, and the public is invited to attend.
