Even as she swung through the Toronto International Film Festival to promote Clooney’s Up In The Air, she was preparing to wrap work in Vancouver on the second Twilight sequel, Eclipse, in which she reprises the role she originated in 2008’s phenom. The first sequel, New Moon, opens in November, weeks ahead of Up In The Air.

“I’ve never seen anything like it in my life,” she says of the hysteria surrounding Pattinson, who stars as the Twilight’s brooding blood-slurper Edward. “People were asking me ‘Can you believe how crazy this premiere (for Up In The Air) is?’ And I was like, ‘You ain’t seen nothing.’ Most people have never seen anything like the Rob Pattinson phenomenon.”

How do the two leading men, albeit of different generations, compare?

“They get different sides of it. Rob gets a lot of screaming and a lot of prying and a lot of intensity, which doesn’t necessarily feel good when it comes from a hysterical place. And then I see people talk to George, because he’s so established, people try to trick him into saying something and it’s interesting watching him sidestep that stuff so gracefully and never lose his cool; I don’t know how he does it.”
