We’ve made signs for those of you who will be attending the Breaking Dawn part 1 Premieres! You can print them and bring them with you to the events. Tip: take a marker (dark and light) with you and something hard for underneath the sign so Rob (and the other actors) will be able to sign easily.
We’d love to see a pic of the signs at the venue and/or signed 🙂
That’s the way fans are used to seeing The Twilight Saga couple Bella Swan and Edward Cullen dance around each other, as depicted in three movies based on the phenomenally successful books by Stephenie Meyer.
Sure, there’s flashes of heartbreak, of longing looks, of petting verging on the heavy, but those scenes are saturated in the same youthful innocence, of teen angst mingling with a certain kind of romance that never strays too far from being, well, above the covers. No swearing and certainly no sex. Ever.
But things are hotting up in the perpetually gloomy outpost of Forks, USA.
The Twilight Saga’s fourth film instalment – Breaking Dawn Part I – has these star-crossed lovers married, copulating, having a genetically questionable baby, and, once again, fighting the forces of darkness to save the future of mankind. And vampirekind, and werewolfkind.
The honeymoon sex scene in this, the first of two films charting the final book of the series, was reportedly so steamy, the actors were recalled to set to reshoot them. The original version was too explicit to pass the censors.
Reports of excessive “thrusting” by Kristen Stewart, who plays Bella, were bandied about as attracting frowns from US standard-bearers.
Unlike most actors, the English Robert Pattinson, 25 years of old, thinks sex scenes are easy. There are other things that are scarier: having to appear shirtless or doing comedy, especially in TV Shows like Saturday Night Live, as he told Epoca in two interviews: one as a roundtable and another exclusive one:
EPOCA – All actors say that sex scenes are very awkward to do, you always have a lot of people around. As you and Kristen know each other so well, was it easier?
Pattinson – Actually I don’t think doing sex scenes is weird. You know that nobody will say anything, the directors don’t want to embarrass themselves, they won’t tell you how to do it. But it’s fun to do them with Kristen, it seems kind of silly. In fact, it becomes more difficult. When you don’t know the other person you won’t say she’s doing something silly, or joke all the time. If you know the person, it’s more risky (laughs).
EPOCA – Kristen Stewart said the wedding scene was as if she were living it. How was it for you?
Pattinson – Kind of easy. Especially in the beginning. There was so much expectation because of the dress, paparazzi everywhere that Kristen was very stressed. As she was walking to the altar, and the camera approaching me, I started to get nervous because I saw how shocked she was. So I had to think that I needed to support her and act as if I knew what I was doing (laughs).
He’s been named one of the world’s 100 most influential people but Robert Pattinson couldn’t look less conspicuous if he tried.
Lounging on a plush sofa at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills, his white T-shirt features a tiny rip front and centre, his shoelaces are unlaced and his baseball cap is on backwards.
In short, he’s disarmingly understated and approachable, immediately offering a cheery hello that quickly reaches his blue-green eyes.
“I can’t wait for this film to come out,” he says of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1.
“I feel like we’ve been talking about it for months. Well, I have!”
He’s the first to admit that this movie is different from the previous three, which are also based on the novels by Stephenie Meyer.
It is the beginning of the end for the Twilight series, but for Robert Pattinson’s vampire, Edward, it is the happiest he has ever been. The vampire doesn’t sparkle once in this film, but he also doesn’t brood or mope. Sure, that may not be a selling point for those who love the moody vampire figure, but Pattinson seems okay with it. As Breaking Dawn part 1 approaches, Pattinson talks about how Edward has evolved and how he said goodbye.
You’ve been playing Edward Cullen for nearly five years. Can you describe the journey he has taken, and the journey you have taken with him?
Right from the beginning, I ignored the fact that he was a vampire; I ignored the fact that he was 108 years old, except for in sort of metaphorical senses. You are left with a troubled teenager with a very simple story of him finding contentment with himself. He gets content by finding a woman and having a child, which I guess is how a lot of guys balance themselves out. At least, that’s the hope anyway.
Director Bill Condon mentioned that there was this self-loathing that you told him you had been playing with for the first three movies, that had never really been presented as a plot element.
Yeah. I thought that would be the key ingredient to Edward’s character. He’s 108 years old, but he’s never achieved anything he wanted to achieve. He’s been stuck in adolescence. When you are in adolescence, you think nothing is fair – he’s been living with that for 100 years. You’d eventually get to the point of desperation. It is very difficult to portray that and a love story at the same time, unless you want to make a very different movie. So I was trying to push for that angle. Breaking Dawn is probably the happiest Edward has ever been in the whole series.
