He did a lot to get out of the drawer of a teenage vampire, in love with apathetic Bella Swan. In his Edward, Cullena loved and love all the fans of “Twilight”, and although he himself does not speak about this role particularly warm, it was the beginning of a great career. But it was not his Stephenie Meyer who imagined as vampire Edward.
Henry Cavill in “Twilight”? That’s what Stephenie Meyer wanted
When Stephenie Meyer wrote “Twilight” in 2005, the success of the book meant that from the writer the book for young people could actually start thinking about the cast of film. Although the publishing house got along with Summit Entertainment only in 2007, Meyer could write subsequent parts with the image of the perfect Edward in the imagination. It was supposed to be none other than Henry Cavill – SUPERMAN AND VIDEDMIN GERALT came.
The writer revealed that she dreamed of Cavill in the role of Edward, when she finally managed to determine who would screen “Twilight”. On her blog, apart from joy at the news of the upcoming film, she wrote the following words:
The most disappointing for me is the loss of my perfect Edward. Henry Cavill is already 24 years old. Let’s spend a moment of silence on mourning … – she said.
She also suggested that maybe Cavill would be interested in the role … foster father Edward Cullen, Carlisle. As all viewers of “Twilight” know well, none of these plans came out. Cavill only after years learned that he was thought of him in this context.
Edward Cullen’s role was made by Robert Pattinson recognized around the world. One person decided about everything: director Catherine Hardwicke. It was she who convinced the producers that very messy and rather different from the stereotypical image of the “handsome vampire” the actor can be “made” on the captivating Cullen.
I sent them recordings, Robert met them. They called me, asking if I was able to do so that he would look good. “Yes, of course. Have you seen his cheekbones?! We will make him a metamorphosis, new hair, everything, he will go to the gym and will be wonderful.” But they didn’t believe me initially. He probably showed them in a stained T -shirt, or something like Rob – said the director after years in the podcast “Happy Sad Confused”.
Despite the awareness of how much good the figure of Edward did for him, Robert Pattinson could not like the vampire for a long time. “He is an absurd character who does everything fantastic. The longer I read the script, the more I hated it. And that’s how I played it – as a depressive maniac who hates myself. And it was also a 108-year-old virgin, so he certainly had to have some problems” – Pattinson joked in an interview with” Empire Magazine “in 2008.
