Robert Pattinson says everything “goes to hell” in the upcoming “Twilight” film, “Breaking Dawn – Part 1,” which sees his reprising his role as vampire Edward Cullen
The movie is the first part of the fourth installment of the fantasy romance series, which is based on the novels by Stephenie Meyer. “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1” depicts the wedding of Bella Swan, a human played by Kristen Stewart, and Cullen and the consequences of their union.
“Even when you think things are going all right, they just sort of get worse,” Pattinson told OnTheRedCarpet.com regarding the film’s plot. “It was good where the book split as well, because it’s a very intense, the story. It’s not a big adventure or anything – it’s set pretty much in a house where everything is just going to hell, basically.”
Swan and Cullen go on a honeymoon on an island off the court of Brazil, where the actors filmed part of the movie. Pattinson utters a line in Portuguese in the film, but don’t expect him to carry on a conversation in the language.
“I don’t even know what I was saying in the movie,” he told OnTheRedCarpet.com. “Just noises!”

Looking pale but awake, Rob apologizes, “I drank so much coffee this morning I might have vomited”. He’s sporting a new haircut, “It’s for my next movie. I had to cut it randomly. I thought about shaving it off, but I thought of only cutting one part, and I liked it so much in the end, that I kept it.” Always with a big smile on his face, and laughing through most of the interview, the superstar shares his thoughts on the finale of the saga that catapulted him to fame.
Analyzing Edward, do you think he’s a week guy? Is he too passive at times, eventhough inside he feels this great passion and love? He’s very romantic too, how do you see him?
I think he’s helpless. I’ve always thought – and if you pay close attention to the character you can see it too – that he’s a guy that has been so lonely for so long that he goes crazy, and that’s why he is the way that he is. That’s all I can think of, whenever I think about him in the first three movies, and how he finds himself more in each movie. It was interesting reading the fourth book, because I didn’t agree with most of his actions. I didn’t like the way he behaved. In the previous books you could understand the reasons behind his actions, and even sympathize with him, but I was not getting him at all in this movie “Why are you doing this?! You’re a whimp!” I really didn’t understand him, and it was fun trying to legitimize those weird actions, and it was an interesting way to close the saga for me. I guess he becomes more of a hero in Part 2 for the first time, though it’s Bella who saves him all the time, for once. But it’s interesting how he’s more impulsive and selfish in Part 1, which makes him go crazy. And in the first movie he’s always orchestrating everything.
Before hitting it big in the Twilight films, Robert Pattinson was a young actor finding small parts in films such as Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and other smaller films. But it was the role of Edward Cullen that made Pattinson a worldwide star. Now that he is done filming all of the Twilight movies, Pattinson is thankful for the doors that the franchise has opened for him, but at the same time it has been tough for him to deal with all that stardom also brings.

1. Where Would Robert Pattinson Be Without ‘Twilight’?
Vodpod videos no longer available.
Josh: Mr. Pattinson, how are you?
Rob: I’m good yeah, how are you?
Josh: Good, I’m good. Ok we’re not finished, there’s still a ways to go, but we came back a little bit. Where the hell would you be without Twilight?
Rob: Would I be dead? *laughs*
Josh: *laughs* No, would it be that bad?
Rob: Um, I don’t know. I have no idea.
Josh: Do you think you would’ve stuck with acting? It’s kind of well known you were kind of on the fence at a certain point about whether to keep going with this thing or not.
Rob: I don’t know. I always, I think a lot of actors think about that all the time because you just kind of have to confront your insecurities quite a lot and I have plenty..*laughs* ..plenty of insecurities!
Josh: Even now, with the whole world loving you?
Rob: Even more! Before you can kind of bullshit yourself all the time. Like if no one cares about you can be like, “I’m the greatest person in the world”, and just be completely delusional.
Josh: Are there moments though when you buy into it a little bit where you’re like “you know what I look good there” or “I’m pretty awesome”?
Rob: Like not for a while. Yeah, I almost get sick to side with myself. *laughs* Plus, I’m getting older as well.
