The Triangle

Issue date: 11/21/08 Section: Arts & Entertainment

"I liked the idea of a character which was so specific and people had such a strong opinion of. Going into a project where the audience will already have a very, very hard preconception of what they're actually seeing … a lot of the back story is already set up for you, and you can just kind of fight against it to create a very odd character," Pattison said of the film.

For the future, Pattinson is looking to step out of his stereotypical loner roles and jump back in with fictional society. After finishing this chaotic tour, however, Pattison is anxiously waiting to return home to London to face his own social challenges.

"People ask, like, 'What's it like to play the most beautiful person in the whole world?' and I'll go [home] and start talking to my friends and [say things like], 'Yeah, well this other person asked me how it is to play the most beautiful person in the world, and then I went to this room and there were 5,000 people screaming at me'… I have nothing to talk about to my friends anymore," Pattison joked.

"Twilight" is now playing in theaters nationwide.
