Kristen Stewart Reveals Eclipse Details

Yes, I know New Moon (the second film of the Twilight series) hasn't even hit theaters yet, but it's not too early to start talking about Twilight movie #3, Eclipse. Filming just wrapped on the third movie of the franchise, and while taking part in the LA press day for New Moon, Kristen Stewart ('Bella Swan') talked about slipping into character for the third time and working with David Slade, yet another director new to the franchise:

"Eclipse is such that, just like New Moon, it sort of starts and becomes a completely new movie. Just as soon as you think you're going to get the same story, it's sort all of a sudden that it completely changes. Bella is much more back to herself. She's content now. She's comfortable and self-assured in a way that she wasn't in New Moon. I think what I really love about Eclipse, what was interesting for me to explore, was different levels of love and acknowledging that the ideals that you maybe had a little while ago aren't true. Bella is innately honest. That's something that I feel she is. In Eclipse she lies to herself and she lies to everyone around her about the fact that she's in love with Jacob, just not as much. It's not that extra thing that you can't really even describe. I loved watching the three of them. I loved playing with the three characters together. There's literally a scene where Edward and Jacob, who are mortal enemies, are in a tent with a sleeping Bella in between them. It's a ridiculous circumstance to find yourself in."

Stewart added, "We had so much to work with. Then the effects as well were even more. There's a big battle that happens and that was more than we had to deal with on New Moon. So it was cool. I've always gotten to do things for really short periods of time. To follow a character this long surprises me every time. I can't wait to do the fourth one because I'm sure that I'm going to come in and say that everything I said this time was wrong, that I actually know Bella more now. And actually we have such established dynamics. The way that I know Bella deals with Edward, you sort of can't mess with that. I know how she deals with him. I know how she deals with Jacob. I know how she deals with Charlie, her dad, and to have people come in and help that process out is only cooler. You always get a different perspective. So working with David [Slade] was like, 'Okay, let's see what you've got,' because he came up with a lot of stuff that I would've never thought of, and he's quite good at the whole technical aspect of movie-making which is so completely over my head. So I got to feel safe that he had that handled and me and Rob [Pattinson] and Taylor [Lautner] just sort of did our thing."
