'Twilight' star Kellan Lutz spoke with Ryan Seacrest on his 102.7 KIIS-FM morning radio show Friday -- and the star dished about why he thinks co-star Robert Pattinson has become such a heartthrob and what he thinks about Dakota Fanning signing on to be a part of 'New Moon.'

 

Lutz, whose 'Twilight' character (Emmett Cullen) is brothers with Pattinson's character (Edward Cullen), weighs in on the fan frenzy surrounding Pattinson.

"Rob does this thing when he’s really shy or someone asks him something, he lowers his head down and the girls love it," Lutz said of Pattinson's appeal to fans.

Lutz called Pattinson a "humble guy," but added that he thinks his "crazy hairdo gets the girls swooning, and I don’t have those locks."

He also shared his thoughts on costar Kristen Stewart, calling her mature and saying, "I really respect her."

As for Dakota Fanning joining the cast of 'New Moon,' Lutz said, "Thank God." He also responded to rumors about starlets Vanessa Hudgens and AnnaLynne McCord joining the cast by saying, “Not that I know of.”

Lutz is currently filming 'New Moon,' the highly anticipated sequel to 'Twilight,' which hits theaters on November 20.

'Twilight' will be released on DVD after midnight tonight.
