Teaser of Rob, Kristen and Taylor EW Interview
Entertainment Weekly sat down with Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner for a feature interview running in this week’s magazine to discuss the world they inhabit within the Twilight universe — both on screen and off. The three young stars opened up about coping under the glare of intense media spotlight, how they rely on one another to pull through, what they think of the upcoming final movie, Breaking Dawn, what lies ahead once the franchise wraps, and much more. In this preview, the three stars talk about gearing up for the final chapter of the saga that has changed each of their lives forever.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: You guys are about to start shooting the two Breaking Dawn movies back to back. You signed on to this franchise before Breaking Dawn was written. When you read it, were you thinking, How is this going to be turned into a movie?
KRISTEN STEWART: Yeah, definitely. What is Renesmee going to look like? Is it going to be this little teeth-baby running around? It’s going to be weird.
ROBERT PATTINSON: [Laughs] “Little teeth-baby.”
STEWART: Yeah, but I think it’s going to be cool. One of the main objectives of the series is to get Bella to a point where she’s mature enough to make such a hefty decision, and she goes through a lot. In the fourth one, she is going to become a wife. She is going to become a mom. She is going to become an adult and a vampire. To do it so young, it needs to be believable. So I’m really excited about playing that.
Some people read Breaking Dawn as very pro-life and Mormon because Bella decides to have her baby even though it’s endangering her life. Did any of that bother you when you read the book?
STEWART: No, because it made sense. Not wanting to give up the baby is about her holding onto that last thing that she would have to give up if she was not human anymore. Right after she and Edward sleep with each other for the first time, she says, “Oh, f***, I might want to be human for a little bit longer.” The baby is just an even more intense version of that.
PATTINSON: I think people make up all these Mormon references just so they can publish Twilight articles in respectable publications like the New York Times. Even Stephenie [Meyer, author of the Twilight novels] said it doesn’t mean any of that. It is based on a dream.
The Breaking Dawn movies are the last in the series. How do you feel about all of this coming to a conclusion soon?
STEWART: In terms of shooting them, they’re almost done. We’re going to be done by March.
TAYLOR LAUTNER: It will be so weird, the last day of filming that last movie.
STEWART: It will be sad, too. It’s been one of the most crazy, indulgent experiences as an actor, to be able to follow a character for this long.
LAUTNER: I think stopping will be very weird.
STEWART: It will just feel like a chapter has been closed.
LAUTNER: A big chapter.
STEWART: I’m going to be like, “But wait, there’s this scene…”

Rob and Kristen Interview on "Close Up" (New Zealand) - Talk about Rumors, Fame and More
Not that long ago the names Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart were just that, names.
But in 2008 came Twilight, the blockbuster movie series based on Stephenie Meyer's books which launched a phenomenon and rocketed the two previous unknowns to stardom.
Two films and two billion dollars later, the hype around the box office hit is stronger than ever, the power of which Stewart admits can be overwhelming.
"It's undeniable energy and that's what I'm responding to usually and that's why I get sort of so crazy," she says.

"It's undeniable energy and that's what I'm responding to usually and that's why I get sort of so crazy," she says.
"You look at like every kind of gossipy website or anything and it's always got polls about Twilight, anything, you put Twilight in the headline and people are going to go to it," he says.
With Pattinson 24 and Stewart just 20, life has changed for these two stars, hounded by media and facing persistent rumours that link the pair romantically.
Pattinson has also been the target of some dubious contact.
"I've had a bunch of people say yeah man I met you at this thing... all the time. And you get a bunch of people that found your phone number somehow, it's so obvious that they have somehow found it through nefarious sources." He says.
Before Twilight became a world-wide sensation, Pattinson was known only for a small part in the Harry Potter film series.
Stewart was recognised only for her role as the young daughter of Jodie Foster in Panic Room.
Now, however, they are household names, with series' the third movie, Twilight: Eclipse, about to hit cinemas around the world.
But when it comes to how fame has affected those closest to him, Pattinson says things are fairly normal on the home front.
"The only thing they (Pattinson's family) are concerned about is if you're happy with it. And my friends have just never really cared, I don't think they even saw Twilight until like two years after it was made," he says.
The pair have certainly generated plenty of gossip for outsiders though, and Stewart admits to looking online to see how she is perceived.
"You need to know what people are saying, self-awareness is a pretty important thing. I'm just young and crazy I think. I just can't not know," she says.
She also believes the biggest reward is for her acting to be appreciated by the book-lovers and movie-lovers alike.
"It is sort of the ultimate compliment to be typecast. If you're a huge fan of the book and I'm always Bella to you, then I've obviously done a good job."
Pattinson, meanwhile, is thinking about how long the fame may last.
"I don't really care what I get remembered for, I mean you have no control over that...If I'm dying at 80 and people can still remember it that would be absolutely incredible," he says.
Twilight:Eclipse opens in New Zealand cinemas on July 1.
