Eclipse is your fist Twilight movie. So how was it coming into this `Twilight` world for the first time?
BD: I had not only read the books, but one of my friends actually made this little pack of Post-It notes for me with Rob`s face, that said, `Live dangerously.` All of my friends were like, `Why are you so obsessed?` I was just like, `it`s so dangerous. Their love is so dangerous.` It was very fast and it was very sudden.
Tell me more.
BD: To be honest, I was intimidated going into it, for a variety of reasons, but I felt so lucky to get to meet this group of people. It`s a group of people that has genuine friendships and is so deeply committed to doing justice to these stories, and who always put the character and the story first. Obviously, that`s translated, and I think that`s why the movies are as beloved as they are.
What do you think of your co-stars in Eclipse?
BD: Great friends and great actors. Kristen kept asking about my son and Rob and Taylor are truly terrific guys.
How did you approach your big fight scene with Rob Pattinson?
BD: There was a lot of fight training that happened to prepare for it. Actors are always nervous about not only hurting each other, but perhaps hitting each other`s face and ending one`s career. So, there was a lot of preparation that made us feel more comfortable, certainly. I just knew that, if I rustled his hair, millions of young women would want to kill me, so I was quite cautious for that reason. It was fun. There`s a point at which you`re wrestling for six consecutive hours that it just becomes absurd. You just can`t help, but laugh. It ultimately was great
