It’s been a year already, but the Twilight craze is not going anywhere. The blockbuster phenomenon not only keeps on giving but also inspires people to do things they never thought they would. One of those things is to find out more about the movie’s actors. How well do you know them? Let’s take a look.
Robert Pattinson
The English actor rose to fame thanks to his role as the vampire Robert Pattinson in the film adaptation of Stephenie Meyer’s novel, Twilight. It was a role that made him a household name in a matter of months. Now, a year after the movie’s premiere, he’s still one of the most recognizable faces in Hollywood. What’s next for the 31-year-old actor? Perhaps another Twilight movie?
In terms of appearance, Pattinson was born with the classic good looks that made him such a perfect fit for the role of Robert. Standing at 6’2″, he features an athletic build that’s perfect for playing a vampire. He also has an attractive smile that he’s always eager to show the camera. And, of course, he has that iconic high-vampire voice. On top of all that, he’s fluent in French, which is lucky for us, as every other language might not be an easy fit for your typical vampire. As you might imagine, he’s quite the package. And what type of package would you like to see him in? Perhaps something in a sports capacity?
Kristen Stewart
The other famous face from Twilight is also very much in demand these days. The 26-year-old actress graced magazine covers and social media with her stunning looks even before she was famous for playing Bella Swan. Now that she’s achieved fame, she continues to grace magazine covers and social media with her gorgeous photos. What’s next for Kristen? Is she planning on making a movie career for herself? Or is she focused on being a working actress and continuing to shine on the big screen?
Stewart was born in L.A. but grew up in the small town of Woodstock, New York. After graduating with a degree in journalism from the State University of New York at Geneseo, she moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in acting. Since then, she’s appeared in several award-winning films, including Contagion, The Runaways, and Midnight in Paris. She also starred in Woody Allen’s newest film, Cafe Society, as well as his 2011 movie, Midnight in Manhattan. Most recently, she was seen in the Netflix original film, The Stranger. As you can see, Stewart has worked hard to establish herself as a leading lady and, hopefully, her many fans will be able to see more movies with her in them. So, while she may not be signed on for any more projects at the moment, rest assured fans will be able to see her on the big screen for a long time to come. And with these gorgeous looks, how could she not be?
Taylor Lautner
Taylor Lautner, the son of the late Lee Lautner, is another “Twilight” actor on the rise. The 22-year-old made his debut in the 2012 film, The Mortal Instruments, and continued to appear in various capacities in films such as The Shallows and Ocean’s Eight. Most recently, he starred in the highly anticipated sequel, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. What’s next for the young actor? Perhaps an appearance in a Woody Allen movie? Or a big-budget blockbuster?
Lautner was born in Phoenix, Arizona but moved to Los Angeles at a young age. He’s attended both the California Institute of the Arts and the UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television. As you can probably tell, his parents were both big Hollywood names who passed away when he was young. Since then, his older sister, Ali, has helped raise him and his younger sister, Bella. As a result, he’s been able to work closely with some of Hollywood’s top talent attorneys in order to establish himself in the industry. If you’re looking to become a famous actor, you couldn’t pick a better place to do it than Los Angeles. It’s a city where the stars truly do shine.
So far, so good. Now, let’s talk about your typical “Twilight” vampire. Is there anything specific you would like to know about them? How well do you know them?
