Think you know everything about your fave vampire series? Even the most obsessed Twihards will be surprised by these little-known facts about Twilight.
1. Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are still on good terms. While it might not be the big announcement that Twihearts have been waiting for, this still shows that another movie is entirely possible. In a new interview with The Sunday Times, Robert Pattinson said that there are no hard feelings between him and Kristen and Suki Waterhouse exes. He also talked about why he doesn't like publicly talking about his exes.
While his answer might've been super short, he said that his past relationships with Kristen and Suki were not. "They were pretty long relationships, not like three months," he said.
He also talked about why he doesn't like publicly talking about his exes.
"If you let people in, it devalues what love is. If a stranger on the street asked you about your relationship, you’d think it extremely rude. If you put up a wall it ends up better. I can’t understand how someone can walk down the street holding hands, and it’s the same as when I do it and a hundred people are taking your photo," he told The Sunday Times. "The line between when you’re performing and when you’re not will eventually get washed away and you’ll go completely mad."
At least we know that there's no hard feelings between the two of them if they do decide to come back for another film.
2. Robert Pattinson has had a change of heart on the movies. Robert Pattinson has been pretty vocal about not enjoying the film series back when he was filming them, but he's actually changed his mind about them over the years. "It's lovely now that the mania is not so intense," he told USA Today. "People come up (to me) and just have very fond memories of it. It's a really sweet thing. I think the only scary part was right in the thick of it all, when it was very, very intense. Now the intensity has died down and it's just very warm memories."
He even revealed that he recently watched New Moon, "just the other day, and it genuinely does have an incredibly good soundtrack. I completely forgot, but the soundtracks were quite ahead of their time."
3. Kristen Stewart wouldn't mind coming back for another movie. While out at the Toronto International Film Festival, Kristen was asked if she would come back for another Twilight movie. "Yeah, sure. Yes, absolutely," she told Entertainment Tonight. She also joked that she would be a part of the process. "Honestly, start sending scripts my way. Let’s start building this."
4. Robert Pattison is hoping for another installation. "I was literally just talking to my agent about it," he said during a recent interview with Variety, per Entertainment Tonight. "The amount of time I’ve spent moisturizing, I am ready to play 17 at a moment’s notice. Ready! I've got the Botox out! I can do it," he added jokingly, when asked about if he would star in another Twilight installation. And, with a little hindsight, Rob is totally proud of the work he created during the franchise, and he loves that fans are so into it. “Whenever anyone says [Twilight]’s their guilty pleasure, it’s like, you say guilty, what you really mean is just pleasure,” he told Variety.
5. Kristen Stewart, who plays Bella, was "discovered" by an agent when she was 8-years-old. She was starring in her elementary school Christmas pageant.
6. After Kristen and Robert Pattinson were cast, they flew to director Catherine Hardwicke's home, where they had to rehearse a love scene on her bed. AWK!
7. RPatz actually played the piano for the melody "Bella's Lullaby" on the Twilight soundtrack. He's a pretty talented musician.
8. The dress Bella wore to prom cost only $20. Tons of stores and websites have recreated the iconic dress for fans to purchase.
9. When Stephenie Meyer began writing the first book, she didn't have names yet for Edward and Bella, so she just called them "he" and "she." At first they were just "voices in her head," she said.
10. Like Bella, before she moved to Forks, Washington, Stephenie also grew up in Phoenix, Arizona.
11. The idea for the book came to Stephenie in a dream. She even remembers the exact day of the dream: June 2, 2003.
12. Stephenie has said that she's on Team Jacob. She says Jacob is more of her style.
13. Thousands of actors wanted to audition for Edward's part. Fans originally wanted Smallville actor Tom Welling to play Edward's role, but Rob was chosen (and we can't complain, tbh).
14. RPatz apparently knew nothing about Twilight at first. He only auditioned because he liked Kristen's performance in the movie "Into the Wild."
15. It took 36 hours to turn Nikki Reed's naturally brown hair blonde. Nikki played Edward's sister, Rosalie.
16. Stephenie originally titled Twilight after the actual town most of the story is set in: Forks.
17. A restaurant calledEin Forks, Washington offers a Bella Burger on its menu. The burger comes with a special side: A pair of fake plastic vampire teeth!
18. Meyer makes a cameo in Twilight! In the scene where Bella and her dad are having lunch at the diner in the first movie, Meyer is seen sitting with her laptop.
19. Rob apparently doesn't know how much of a heartthrob he is. He freaked out when he first found out he had to shoot a shirtless scene! (Is he crazy?!)
20. Lily Collins was actually originally considered for the role of Bella. She would have made a great Bella, too.
21. Rob didn't talk to anyone for a few weeks before filming began to prep for his role. He was trying to get a feel for how isolated Edward felt.
22. Edward's character wasn't always supposes to be so dark and stormy. He was actually almost fired for making the character so ~emo~.
23. Harry Potter is Team Edward. LOL. Actor Daniel Radcliff was open about his love for Robert Pattinson.
