Kristen Stewart: �I think to miss something it has to go away. It was easier to play Bella in �New Moon� because I got the chance to go through the experience of playing Bella in �Twilight�. I do think the movie stands alone - if it wasn�t a sequel, it would still make sense - but I wouldn�t have been able to play it because I wouldn�t have known how she felt so physically altered (by Edward leaving)... hypothetically, obviously, because I don�t know what it�s like to be in love with a vampire! But it�s because the descriptions in the book are so visceral, it�s literally first person narrative so you know how she�s feeling all the time. But how did we maintain intensity? The story�s intense, it�s what we were supposed to do.�
Have you gotten protective of the character after playing her? Do you put some of your own input into the performances?
KS: �No. Everyone knew what they were getting into, and we�re all still doing the movies for the same reason we started doing it. All we want to do is tell the story, all we want to do is do the books justice.�
Have you talked to Stephenie Meyer much about the character?
KS: �I talked to Stephenie a lot on �Eclipse�, for the first time actually. I think that�s just because she was on set more. She would visit us occasionally but it was always so quick I never really had time to get into anything. It was so cool because I was always a little bit intimidated by her. It�s a similar relationship we have to the fans, but she�s the �Queen Bee�, so it was great to talk to her.�
What do you get up to on your �down time�?
KS: �Fairly normal things. I have my family, my friends, my pets. Nothing noteworthy whatsoever.�
