It has begun: the promo campaign for “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1,” the one before the last installment in the franchise, has kicked off. A new still from the film is featured on the cover of Entertainment Weekly, while Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart spill the beans on the hottest scenes in it.
“Breaking Dawn” is also the name of the last novel by Stephenie Meyer in the Twilight series; the big screen adaptation will be divided into two parts, in the manner of “Harry Potter” films before it.
As fans must know, the first film has Bella the mortal girl (Kristen Stewart) marry Edward the vampire (Robert Pattinson), scoot off to a remote island for the honeymoon and, there, become pregnant.
No sense pointing which are the scenes fans are dying to see in theaters, when the film is out in November this year.
They get a glimpse of the honeymoon with the latest issue of EW, whose cover has the two sharing a tender embrace. Edward’s expression hints that there’s some unseen threat coming towards them.
EW also managed to get a few words with the two actors (via PopSugar), getting them to talk about the wedding, the honeymoon and, most importantly, about how they feel now that they’re done with “Twilight” – the fifth film is also shot, but will be released next year.
“It’s just so strange, I can’t get over it,” Kristen says of “Twilight” ending. Fans feeling the same should at least find some consolation in knowing that the two actors promise the ride of their life with the final two installments.
“It’s a trip to watch the wedding scenes especially. It was so volatile and emotional – I was being such a crazy person,” Robert says.
A change of pace also comes when Bella and Edward learn they’re about to have a baby, which they had no idea it could happen in the first place.
“That was fun to play. Bella’s always liked him and liked everything he said and thought; everything he did was right. This is something that she clearly disagrees with. She doesn’t mindlessly and blindly follow him. She was always kind of defiant. I like that,” Kristen explains.
With emotions flying high and the bitter taste of goodbye, Robert Pattinson can still crack a joke about it, imagining how he’d have liked to play the famous bed-ruining pillow-biting scene, the characters’ first night of lovemaking.
“I wanted to have it as a line so much, ‘I bit through all the pillows. Every. Single. One.’ And then [Edward would] start crying. By the way, that’s what he should be ashamed of in the morning. All those beautiful pillows! Egyptian cotton! ‘I ruined this bed!’” he says.
Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart may be the fans favorite couple, especially with the romance that they wake up as lovers in the movie TWILIGHT SAGA. But, it turns out this is actually quite different when both are behind the stage.
