Film.com Talks to Robert Pattinson about Why He Relates to Edward2

The Twilight Saga’s second chapter, New Moon, focuses on Robert Pattinson’s vampire character, Edward Cullen, leaving Bella and breaking her heart, which sends her into a spiraling depression from which she feels she can’t possibly escape with her life. Film.com’s Cole Haddon interviewed Rob to discuss his feelings on why Edward left Bella, why he relates to Edward so well, and to discuss the movie and his sudden fame.
New Moon, the second chapter of The Twilight Saga, begins with every teen girl’s favorite vampire, Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), breaking his beloved Bella’s heart, sending her on a downward spiral she only narrowly survives. I sat down with Pattinson recently to discuss the movie, sudden fame, and why he relates so well to Edward.
Cole Haddon: In New Moon, Edward Cullen, after having personally exiled himself from Bella’s life, spends most of the story … well, not in it. Except for visions Bella (Kristen Stewart) has, that is. Did that leave you feeling disconnected from your cast mates at all?
Robert Pattinson: Those scenes, [the visions], were the hardest scenes. They weren’t really at the time, but after I saw the first cut of the movie, [the filmmakers] changed them quite a bit in the editing room and with ADR. It’s not [technically] Edward [either]. It’s a manifestation of Bella’s loneliness and desperation. As for being alone, I’ve always felt a little bit aloof as the character, throughout the whole series. I think that’s how he is, so I didn’t feel any different. (more)

Rob is such a down to earth guy. Hopefully all this mega fame does not change him.
