- On dressing like a stripper for the film: “What surprised me most was the fact that I was so unaware of the fact I was walking down the street with my robe open and just not caring at all. I had no inhibitions, I wasn’t scared.”
- On the Twilight cast: “I’m really lucky to have my cast on the series because as soon as we get back on set together, you always think it’s going to be hard to get back there but it’s not. We’ve all wanted to tell the story for so long and it’s all finally going to come to fruition.”
- On doing the sequel to Wanted: “People were talking about that a while ago, but I don’t know what I’m doing next. I have no idea.”
- On how she gets out of a role: “The few things that I’ve done between the Twilight movies have just coincidentally been very different, but I haven’t been like, ‘Oh I’m going to shock everyone right now and do something totally different.’ It’s always been totally informed by something speaks to you and you need to do it.”
- On getting absorbed in her role: “I tend to — and I’m not being deadly serious about this, but it is kind of — but I tend to really offend people who are in my life when I go. Especially on this one. It was the first time I’d ever been alone on a movie. I loved stomping around the city like it was mine . . . So I didn’t really miss too much, I was having a great time.”
- On going to a strip club: “I went to my first strip club and upon entering the guy was like, ‘You have to come back later if you want a job.’ . . . So he must have thought you [Jake] were my pimp.”
- On being old enough for the role: “I’d known about this for a while before it got up and running . . . And I’m really glad that it took a while to do so because I think I was old enough to play the part as opposed to not ready. I think I would have shied away from too much.”
- On taking her character with her: “It’s not just parts you play, it’s sort of every experience you have in life shapes you and makes you who you are. Some of the most monumental experiences in my life have been working on films and playing parts, and this one more so than most — I don’t want to compare them — but more than normal, had an effect on me.”
Not all of Stewart’s bruises were make-up. Once filming began, the bruises and marks on Stewart’s limbs were added cosmetically. But only because she had some real-life experience to draw from: “I got the bruises initially in rehearsal. I learned how to pole dance, even though you don’t really see it in the movie. You do for a second; it’s like in silhouette in the background. I’m just laying that down. But it really hurts, and you don’t realize that of course it’s gonna show. […] There were so many that I wasn’t sure, like, ‘Do you keep all of them? Or is that just too much? Is it going to look hokey?’”
Actors are easier to deal with than rock stars. “Actors have reputations for being difficult,” said Scott, a veteran music-video director delivering only his second feature overall and his first in 11 years. “I deal with rock-and-roll bands — they’re difficult. I worked with the Rolling Stones. That’sdifficult. These guys, it was a dream. I used to look forward to coming to work every day. Jim and I, it was a little rocky in the beginning in rehearsal. But I’m from London, and we don’t back down.”
Stewart’s transitioning between Twilight and roles like Joan Jett or a teenage prostitute is seriously no big thing. “The few things that I’ve done between the Twilight movies have just coincidentally been very different,” Stewart said. But I haven’t been like, ‘Oh, I’m gonna shock everybody right now and do something totally different. It’s always been totally informed by, you know, something speaks to you, and you need to do it. That’s what it is. Also I’m really lucky to have my cast on the series because as soon as we get back on set together… You always think it’s going to be hard to get back there, but it’s not, because we’ve all wanted to tell the story for so long. And it’s finally going to come to fruition.”

Kristen Stewart: ‘Breaking Dawn’ will change people’s minds about Bella Swan
“Twilight” fans love to debate their favorite novel in Stephenie Meyer’s bestselling vampire series. Kristen Stewart says she has her own favorite — and it’s the most explicit and intense of the bunch.
“This one’s really good. This one really goes there, finally,” said the actress who plays the iconic Bella Swan of “Breaking Dawn.” “This one is like the forming of a family. You see everything really come to fruition because I feel like [Bella] has sort of gone through an accelerated growth period.”
In November, Stewart will reprise the Bella role when she begins filming the first half of “Breaking Dawn,” the fourth movie in the “Twilight” franchise, which will be directed by Bill Condon. The story follows [spoiler alert: if you aren't familiar with "Breaking Dawn," skip to the last paragraph] Bella’s marriage to vampire Edward Cullen (Rob Pattinson), as the two finally consummate their relationship and Bella becomes pregnant.
“At at this point,” Stewart says, “you do accept [Bella] as a mom.”
Because their child is half-human and half-vampire, Bella’s pregnancy is riddled with complications — all leading up to a dramatic birth scene, in which Edward tears open Bella’s stomach with his teeth to save their baby.
There has been speculation about how the graphic scene will be depicted on screen. Stewart acknowledges it’s a “crazy concept,” also describing werewolf Jacob’s hearing “vampire teeth against vampire skin” during the childbirth scene.
Just how that will play out on screen, though, has yet to be determined. “I’ve seen the script,” which tracks closely to the book, she says. “But it depends on how they shoot it.”
Stewart, who was speaking to 24 Frames to promote her new independent drama “Welcome to the Rileys,” said she thinks her “Twilight” character has been misunderstood. “Bella’s criticized sometimes for being, like, you know — I don’t know, selfish and overly emotional and silly and frivolous and annoying and young,” said Stewart. “That’s sort of like a very judgmental way of looking at it.”
