What has it been like to develop the romantic triangle?

Robert Pattinson: "It was weird because I hardly did any scenes with Taylor. We just did the scenes at the beginning and the scenes at the end, and he had his entire storyline develop without me being around, which is interesting because I had no idea where his performance was going. It wasn’t really a competition or anything. It was independent. Whereas in Eclipse, we did scenes together, all the time, with Bella. It really shows the dynamic in that film."

Who is your favorite movie vampire of all time, and why?

Robert Pattinson: "I don’t really know. I always think of the wrong people. I’ll be like, 'Ethan Hawke in Interview with a Vampire,' and someone will say, 'He’s not the vampire.' There’s a bunch. I actually really like Wesley Snipes [in Blade]. I think he’s great."

Was it a big shock to have Bryce Dallas Howard on the set of Eclipse, instead of Rachelle Lefevre?

Robert Pattinson: "Yeah, it was a shock, but she’s lovely. She’s really, really nice."
