LOS ANGELES — Could it be possible that “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 1” might actually be … adult?
The fourth film adapted from the Stephenie Meyer series about a teenage girl/vampire/werewolf romantic triangle goes places where the first three blockbusters in the series didn’t dare.
Like the bedroom.
Yup, Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson’s achingly chaste Bella and Edward finally get hitched and take a honeymoon in this one.
New-to-the-franchise director Bill Condon (“Gods and Monsters,” “Kinsey”) doesn’t shy away from passionate expressions of young marital love. And it’s really kind of beautiful in its bed-breaking way.
But then, oh my. Pattinson, who shot to fame playing the courtly, lovestruck bloodsucker Edward Cullen, is still trying to wrap his head around where the tween-adored, carnally toothless fantasy has gone this time around.
As the fourth chapter of Twilight is coming out this week, marking the beginning of the end of the saga, its hero grants us an interview, conducted by his most passionate fans (Teenagers from 11 to 16 years old). Here are the secrets of a huge star.
That day, about fourty fans of the Twilight saga are waiting at the back of the Park Hyatt Vendôme hotel, convinced that their idol, Robert Pattinson, will leave by the back entrance. Nothing is less certain : the actor, situated in room 430, is doing a big amount of interviews to talk about the Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 by Bill Condon (Summit programmed the second part for the end of 2012)
In this movie, awaited by milions of people, Edward finally gives up his puritan ways and tie the knot with Bella (Kristen Stewart), who, before the wedding, had a scary nightmare. Robert Pattinson asks for a coffee and looks at us shyly. The questions we want to ask him have been submitted by teenagers. Something that amuses him and relaxes him at the same time.
Eva (13 yo) – With each movie, there’s a new director, how did you meet Bill Condon?
Robert Pattison – He first had lunch with Kristen and it was very serious. Then, he came to my house, we ate some pizzas and drank about 12 beers. Eva, keep that to yourself. Then, we talked about the script that is kind of twisted. It seemed similar to “Rosemary’s Baby”. I get married to Bella, just like in a romantic comedy, she ends up pregnant with a baby that grows really fast, as in a horror movie, and Jacob falls in love with the child, as.. in nothing else actually. Stephenie Meyer, the author is mormon. But this time, with Bella, we finally do IT. Bill Candon as the reputation of a very lovely guy. All I can tell you is that.. he really deserves it.
What was the most difficult thing for you on set?
Breaking Dawn is, before anything else, Bella’s story. Edward is extremely passive in it : The extreme rapidity of the events is beyond him. I’m probably going to disappoint you but the majority of my work was, for this movie, standing and waiting in the same room for two months in front of a green screen.
Dubbed interview. Rob talks Breaking Dawn and Cosmopolis at around 3.30.
Rough Translation
Robert Pattinson on Cosmopolis / David Cronenberg: “At first I was terrified, but it was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. It ‘really nice to work with Cronenberg, he is sure of himself, doesn’t put you under pressure. My character has extreme attitudes: like me. I’m either fine or I’m devastated! “
Robert on Breaking Dawn: “Breaking Dawn is my second favorite movie after Twilight, which is the most important, it changed my life! When Kristen came close to ‘altar terrified, I suddenly felt the weight of the situation, like a real marriage! ”
David Cronenberg, Paul Giamatti, Sarah Gadon & Mathieu Amalric were all on the Cosmopolis panel at the Lisbon Film Festival to discus the film, and reveal a short preview (you can see a low quality video of it HERE)

“If you were ready to hand Robert Pattinson an Oscar for his work in the Twilight saga, just wait until you get a load of him in 2012′s Cosmopolis! HollywoodLife.com chatted with director David Cronenberg, who said Rob won’t be able to reveal his full scope as an actor until he’s left Edward Cullen behind. “It sort of pleases me to work with actors, like Rob, who have that potential, but haven’t had the chance to realize that yet and show it,” he told us Oct. 19 at the LA premiere of A Dangerous Method.
.
“I know [Rob’s] big success is Twilight, but as you know Viggo Mortensen‘s big success was Lord of the Rings, but it didn’t show him at his most profound as an actor,” David continued.
He also compared Rob to Keira Knightley, who stars in A Dangerous Method:
.
“I feel that … Keira Knightley is really quite undervalued and underestimated as an actress,” he said. “I think in A Dangerous Mind she proves she is te superb level of actress she actually is. I’ve worked with some of the best, and she is up there; I feel the same way about Robert Pattinson.” .
