• Quotes

  • "Once I read the script (of Twilight), I begged for an audition. The script showed completely different sides to the characters. It fleshed them out. You see that the power balance between Edward and Bella is actually really skewed and more interesting. We have a girl who is insanely naive and has no idea what she's getting into, yet she trusts herself enough to put stock in what she feels and gives up the power to him. And he's afraid and tortured and entirely conflicted, whereas she's not. She becomes the assertive force in the relationship. It's an ambitious thing to try to portray the ultimate love story, and I thought it would be a good project."—Kristen StewartLA Times: Kristen Stewart Talks About Becoming Bella (November 10, 2008)
