The ‘Twlight Saga: New Moon’ pimping onslaught has begun. Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner are all making the talk-show rounds this week in anticipation for the movie’s release this Friday.
However, only the Mighty Oprah Winfrey was able to score an interview with ‘Twlight‘ author, Stephenie Meyer. The episode, which aired Friday, was pretty upbeat and Stephenie was quite chatty, even letting us know what she thinks about the choice of Pattinson to play the beloved vampire, Edward.
As for the question on Twi-hard minds eveywhere: Will there be a fifth book? Meyer gave a rather unclear answer.
Via MSNBC:
“I can’t answer it. The way I write, it’s what makes me happy. Like, I can’t write when people are looking over my shoulder. I am a little burned out on vampires right now. I think I need a little break. I might go spend some time with my aliens. I might do something completely different. I’ve got to cleanse the palate. I may come back to it. I did envision it as a longer series. But I wrapped ‘Breaking Dawn’ in a way that I felt satisfied with, so if that moment didn’t come, I’d be OK.”
Don’t worry kids, she’ll be all over that book once the hype…and money runs its course. Meyer was in the process of working on ‘Midnight Sun’ (the original 5th Twilight book) when the first 12 chapters leaked to the internet. It was basically the first installment of Twilight through Edward’s persepective. (Click HERE to read more on that.)
“When we were first doing the casting for this, I knew the problem was going to be Edward,” Meyer said. She said that Pattinson has “something about him, he doesn’t look like everybody else, there’s something unusual.”
Meyer didn’t seem sold on Pattinson taking the lead until she saw him in costume.
“I got on set, and he’s in makeup and in costume… all of a sudden he’s Edward. There are moments when he looks exactly like he did in my head.”
She even let’s us in on Sparklepants’ personal hygiene.
“He smells great. Rob is hilarious… he’s really fun to hang out with. He’s not at all like the Edward character… He’s so different as Rob. The eyes, the facial structure. He just doesn’t look like everybody else. In a very good way.”
