Pictures: 'Twilight' Actress Talks About Her On-Screen Romance!

Kristen Stewart opens up about the romance of her 'Twilight' character Bella Swan.

 

The actress tells Teen Vogue she was attracted to the vampire-romance because it allowed her to embody "this sort of powerful idea of untouchable, superior love."

She says that she and her costar Robert Pattinson, who plays Bella's vampire love interest, felt the pressure to perform! "It was like, 'okay, you two portray the most epic love that ever existed on the planet ... now!' "

Another challenge in playing the role of Bella: channeling her clumsiness!  "I'm far from graceful," she says, "but it's really hard to be clumsy on cue. It's like physical comedy…But I decided that Bella is awkward because she's always so caught up in thinking about other things."

Check out this on-screen romance when 'Twilight' hits theaters Nov. 21 and don't miss Kristen on the cover of Teen Vogue!

  • I HAVEN'T SEEN THE MOVIE YET, BUT THE SCEENS I'VE SEEN SHOW kRISTEN DOING AN INCREDIBLE JOB. TO BAD SHE IS SO SARCASTIC OFF SCREEN. SHE NEEDS TO AT LEAST ACT LIKE SHE ENJOYS HERSELF INSTEAD OF UPSET THAT SHES THE SHADOW OF HER COACTOR. LIGHTEN UP kRISTEN YOU WE'RE THE ONE WHO CHOOSE TO PLAY THIS PART, NOW AT LEAST U CAN ACT A LITTLE HUMBLE BY ALL THE ATTENTION.

    • Yes I agree I watched it last night and absolutely adored it. Yes he is so cute.I'm going to the library to get the book because apparently the book has stuff that isn't in the movie and if the movie was good then the book must be better :)

  • They couldn't have picked better people to play Bella and Edward Cullen in the movie. I mean I couldn't imagine Brad Pitt or Kristen Dunst LOL though they are relly good actor and actress. But I really did get into the movie it's like it took you some place else but at the same time kept the same modern time frame. To sum it up LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!
