The Choices We Make
Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner sat down with Total Film to talk about the final film in the Twilight series, Breaking Dawn Part 2. Highlights can be found below.
Kristen on the advice she would have given her younger self on the first day of Twilight: “‘Stick to your guns on not smiling in Twilight. Angst is much better than bubbles, because it really works and everyone is about to be proved wrong.’ All the scenes were so serious. They’re dealing with really heavy stuff. [The filmmakers] were like, ‘Maybe you can lighten things up? And I’m like, ‘No you can’t take that away.’ That’s what people are addicted to- the rawness. Also, I would say: ‘Things wind up OK for you in five years. You’re pretty happy so just chill out. Relax, Kristen.'”
Robert on what the franchise has done for his career: “It’s done a lot. But the same time, you have to steer it. You can sink just as quickly as someone who’s never had this. It’s not a free pass. I think about how to carefully plan the route afterwards. You can’t do anything you want. And if I ever stop acting, I want people to remember my stuff as interesting after I got given my break.”
Taylor on his overall performance in the series: “It was important to give it everything I had, not to fret. Are there things I wish I could have done differently? Sure. But I’m super proud of this whole franchise and everybody in it. I’m happy with what I did.”
