“Twilight” fans will be glued to the 2009 MTV Movie Awards as Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner will present an exclusive scene from “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” (in theaters November 20, 2009) at the event.

The never-before-seen clip is a first look at the next installment in the Summit Entertainment vampire film franchise that became a pop culture phenomenon.

MTV will continue to ramp up the star power as movie megastars Sandra Bullock, Dwayne Johnson, Sienna Miller, Channing Tatum, Bradley Cooper, Abigail Breslin, Thomas Lennon, Danny McBride and Sofia Vassilieva are added to the growing list of names to hand out popcorn awards this year.

They join previously revealed presenters Denzel Washington, Cameron Diaz, Ryan Reynolds, Will Ferrell, Vanessa Hudgens, Leighton Meester, Jonah Hill and Lil Wayne.

In addition, Eminem will take to the stage to perform music from his anticipated new album Relapse (available May 19) and Kings Of Leon will perform LIVE on MTV for the first time ever, treating viewers to their rock anthem “Use Somebody” from their hit album Only By The Night.

Hosted by Andy Samberg, the “2009 MTV Movie Awards” will be broadcast live from the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City, CA on Sunday, May 31st at 9p.m./8p.m.C.

The “2009 MTV Movie Awards” marks the first year in which the final nominees were decided on by the fans. This year’s show will be a showdown between devotees of “Twilight” and “Slumdog Millionaire,” as both movies are neck-and-neck with each film receiving nominations in six award categories.

MTV will up the cinematic fun quotient this year by debuting the new category “BEST WTF MOMENT” and bringing back “BEST SONG FROM A MOVIE.”
