is out.. The article is in Spanish but Rob's site has provided the best parts in English. 😃
15 a 20: What made you participate in the movie? Did you know anything about the books?
R: No, I hadn't read them, so I didn't even know how to play the character. When I was reading the script with my agent, I told him no! there's no way!.. it's physically impossible to do this!.
15 a 20: Why did you think that?
R: Because more than the acting, the character has impossible physical qualities, an incredible body and he's very handsome; so I thought they were gonna tell me "no, thanks, next…"
15 a 20: What was the hardest thing about playing Edward?
R: Edward has this certain aura that makes humans fear him instinctively, and they don't know why. It's something that is very hard to show on screen.But I imagined like it was a lion in the jungle with many other animals around; they know the lion is not hunting, but they keep their distance.
15 a 20: In the Book Edward is always 17 years old. If the sequels are filmed, how are they going to keep your character looking young?
R: With Botox injections!! (he laughs) No, the truth is, that does worry me. I don't know, I think they're gonna have to start filming them pretty soon.
15 a 20: Are they including some of your music in the movie or soundtrack?
R: In fact, there's two of my songs in the movie, eventhough I have no clue what they are doing there, ha ha ha. They used one for one of the key moments, which is a little bizarre because it's a scene with me and Kristen, then there's a close up, and I hear myself singing and playing the guitar, and my face there.
15 a 20: How did you develop your vampire abilities? I read that you wrote a diary as Edward, do you plan on publishing it or something like that?
R: It wasn't really a diary… I don't know how it started (he laughs). I just hadn't realized how difficult it was to play the character, until I started reading the script. It's a very complex character, so I left for Portland about two or three months by myself.. before filming began, and I did nothing but read the script and the books to find anything that would help me play him, so I wrote a few things.. I mean, If your prepare so much for a role, you get to a point in which that's the only thing you're thinking of, so I would do things like write suicide notes, etc.; it was a little worrisome really."
and he let's a big laugh out.
