From Screen Daily:

“Few franchises have proven more transformative in the independent business than Twilight, which has grossed more than $3bn worldwide at the box office alone.

“Twilight was a game changer for everyone involved,” he admits.

It could have been very diferent, however.

“Robert Pattinson only came in three weeks before shoot,” says Wachsberger. “An assistant, who has subsequently become a very successful executive, said, ‘There’s this guy called Rob Pattinson from the fourth Harry Potter…’ I said, ‘Well, let’s fly him in from London’.

“He did his screentest and he got the job. I’m not going to tell you how little the salary was on the first one but of course lawyers were there to renegotiate deals following its success.”

Could we see another episode in the Robert Pattinson-Kristen Stewart behemoth?

“It’s a possibility,” he says. “Not a certainty but it’s a possibility. It’s about Stephenie [novelist Stephenie Meyer]. If she wants to tell a story related to those characters we’re here for her.”

I thought Stephenie said she was done with Edward & Bella? Nice way to keep the dream alive though Patrick for those who would love another instalment.  I won’t hold my breath given the career trajectories of those involved.  But then again, I never thought I’d see Robert front a fragrance after comments he had made years ago, so who knows!

    My laughter is not intended to ditz Twilight. That first movie was a game changer for me too. But the thought of Rob revising that role is pretty remote.
    Nice to hear credit given where due though
