Robert Pattinson on 'Breaking Dawn': 'I just can't see how it's going to be PG-13'


Next month, Robert Pattinson will finish filming Breaking Dawn parts 1 and 2, the final installments of The Twilight Saga (in theaters November 2011 and November 2012). And he says it�s been a long time coming: �I literally feel like we�ve been doing it my whole life,� he laughs during his sit-down interview with EW last week.

Breaking Dawn, as anyone who has read Stephenie Meyer�s best-selling book can tell you, poses a lot of challenges for the big screen � not the least of which involves the very bloody and graphic scene with a half-vampire baby (with teeth!). �There�s some interesting and weird stuff going on � really very, very, very strange. It�s great. For a big mainstream movie, it�s the most obscure story line and really outside the box,� Pattinson says. �It�s just a horror movie. I�ve seen a few bits, and I just can�t see how it�s going to be PG-13 � unless they cut everything out,� he laughs.

Another challenge? Getting Pattinson into shape for the scenes in Breaking Dawn where he must appear shirtless. �When I start [getting fit], I just go crazy about it,� he says. �It�s like the only thing I can talk about to anyone. So I was like, �I�m going to keep this up the whole time, so for whatever movie I do afterwards I�m going to be so buff.� And then literally one day after my last shirt-off scene I started being all [mimics eating voraciously] nom, nom, nom. And I didn�t realize I had one more [shirt-off] scene, and you can see it one of them � I�m clearly [exaggeratedly sucks in his stomach and cheeks].�
