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."

kristen should jump into another business ? You can still be in the movie business and do any other thing than acting where you can keep a low profile. I mean i don’t understand , she wasn’t famous before twilight, and she came to prominence with this blockbuster movie, and most of the people do not even recognize her in any other movies she made before. Of course she will be asked about twilight over and over again. She will be asked about new moon when it comes out and then eclipse. She wants to make a movie and make millions of dollars , get star treatment everywhere she goes and play hide and seek with the media. And she doesn’t want to be asked questions. How can she be so spoiled ? How come anyone doesn’t give her any advice? She doesn’t deserve to be this popular SHE CANT EVEN ACT!!! . If she continues to behave stubborn and rude by telling people to F off because she doent want to talk about twilight anymore with i read on another website /www.showbizspy.com, i am sure that the public will stop being interested in her. Then who will she find to run from and complain about?
This isn’t high school, stop being so rude. This article has nothing to do with running from the press, going into a new business, or even her attitude. Get with the program and actually read the damn article…
I hate stupid people… >.<
I love kristen stewart and the way she acts she rules i wish that she enjoys her fame. Cuz she is making a lot of movies. Mw
I have recognized her in all of the movies I have seen her in. Messengers scared the heck out of me, and Adventureland was great. I love her as Bella
There are however, some scenes in New Moon that I wonder why they didn’t redo cause she is overacting a bit. (I think she has a hard time showing the dispair in the woods) Having said that, it wasn’t her fault they didn’t redo that scene or any other scene where someone wouldn’t think she did an awesome job. She wasn’t in charge of the set, the editing, or even the direction. I look forward to seeing her as Joan Jett when that movie comes out as well.
Go Kristen!
I think Kate is an idiot and agree with f…Kate should try to READ the article. I mean…DUH!
yall really need to shutup about this stuff i mean really GET OVER IT come on…..

Yes! Please read the article because what you said makes no sense to me… She is great! Looking forward to Eclipse and Runaways!
When i had watched the first movie i thought to myself…..WOW. I really enjoyed it. Plus, bella is a very,very beautiful woman. And, edward…..We’ll,um, lets just say in my own words and pardon my language lol edward is F*****N FINE!!! Edward and bella are the most cutest couples that did a awsome job by working together in the first movie. They should be married in real life and i’m not kidding. But,um, I just saw the second movie that just came out and i’m telling ya’ll…..it gets better and better and even more interresting. And myself can’t waite to watch the third movie that’s coming out on june 30th. But um, yeah…..ppl really needs to stop being so damn rude and ugly and just GROW UP and enjoy watching the third movie because i will. I love it. It’s very romantic. And i wished that i was bella.
that movie spells out that love will never lie . i thank edward and bella for the great work they did during twilightsaga
