According to the Huffington Post, all you’ve got to do is watch the new Twilight movie, “Breaking Dawn.”
The birthing scene in “Breaking Dawn,” the final book in Stephenie Meyer’s “Twilight Saga,” features Bella finally producing her Edward Cullen-fathered vampire baby, Renesmee. It’s a graphic scene in the book, but words and images are far different beasts, which makes one wonder just how faithful the Bill Condon-directed film will be to the book in that regard.According to Robert Pattinson, it’ll be just as potent.
“The birth scene is so different from everything else in the movie. For a fantasy series it goes quite far. It’s hardcore, it’s graphic. There’s no other way to do it. It was fun,” he told the audience at Comic Con on Thursday (via HitFix.com).
“You never really get to play Edward in a way that he’s literally so aware of his own helplessness,” he added (via Moviefone). “Either he’s completely in control or pretends he is, but here there’s no on else around, and there’s nothing he can do and he’s just desperate. Normally when that happens, Bella comes in and saves the day. But Bella isn’t there … he’s totally annihilated by the situation”
Kirsten Stewart, the laboring mother-to-be in question, went into more detail.
Advertisement“She’s literally choking on blood she’s been drinking, literally out of her mind. It was always in my head that she’s been able to fight harder than anyone because of that little bit in her, literally,” she laughed (via Movieline). “And at that part I got to play with having venom run through your veins and start to feel the hell that that is, and that’s after a moment of sheer exuberance of looking at your baby for the first time.”
Here’s the official trailer:
