How do you feel about the fan aspect of Twilight?
I feel alright about it.
Would you ever want the level of fame and adoration it’s brought Robert Pattinson?
I think that kind of adoration is a grotesque thing to yearn for, because it’s not about you. It’s about something else entirely. I’m trying to think of an example of where that adoration is genuine. I have no idea where it comes from. I feel a little bit removed from it actually. Obviously I’m not under the microscope like those other guys are.
Not yet.
Right. It hasn’t been too invasive so far. I look at it and go, Okay, people are excited about the film, they like the story. That level of enthusiasm is a powerful thing.

It must have been the biggest set you’ve worked on…
Well, I can’t imagine a film that’s generated that sort of response. It’s funny thinking that regardless of what work I do in the future, I know that I’ll never be a part of something that generates that particular type of response – it was really unique. It’s a credit to Stephenie Meyer, Robert [Pattinson] and Kristen [Stewart], and the rest of the cast, to capture something that is contagious and exciting and build that world in a way that’s compelling. I was really happy to have been a part of it… and just held on tight.
Did you spend much time with Rob and Kristen?
Yeah, it wasn’t like a closed shop. Even though that was a fear – well, not a fear, but you’re kind of hesitant on any job that you’ll into a situation where people have already established their dynamic and their own family. And to be an outsider walking into that – and also playing the bad guy! – you think ‘How’s this going to go down?’ But I couldn’t have been welcomed in warmer fashion. We went out to dinners and there was a really organic camaraderie that developed.

New Twilight hunk Xavier Samuel has told how he and Robert Pattinson have formed the world’s hottest guitar band.
The Australian, who plays bad boy Riley in Twilight: Eclipse, says he plays guitar with his co-stars Pattinson and Jackson Rathbone to help relax.
But sadly for Twilight’s legion of female fans, they have no plans to take to the road.
Speaking about jamming with Pattinson, Samuel said: “We do play together when we get the chance. Especially Jackson and Rob (Pattinson). They play the guitar but we’re not going to start a boy band or anything like that.”
Growing up in Adelaide, Samuel sang with local band Hyatus, then called Degrees of Freedom.
But he now wants to concentrate on acting, saying: “I don’t have any aspirations of becoming a musician or a rock star or anything like that but I take the guitar with me because it helps me wind down.”
