Robert Pattinson lost inspiration for Twilight

By Tribute on May 30, 2012 | 3 Comments


Twi-hearts will be sad to see the ending of their beloved Twilight series, but the cast can’t say the same. Robert Pattinson admits he “got to the end of his inspiration” as the Twilight Saga drew to a close. The British actor is known for his role as the sexy vampire Edward Cullen in the popular franchise. Pattinson explained he began to struggle with finding fresh angles for his big screen part. However, the 26-year-old remains grateful for what the successful series has allowed him to accomplish in his career. “Playing the same part for awhile, you just run out of ideas,” said Pattinson in an interview with Shortlist magazine. “I’m not trying to get away from it. You’re screwing yourself, you’re saying you think your work is sh*t if you try and get away from it and I never though it was [s**t]. But I kind of got to the end of my inspiration. You get to the point where you’re like, ‘I don’t want to do a film for a teen audience anymore.” It seems as though love interest Kristen Stewart feels the same about her role as Bella Swan. “I acknowledge that people absolutely identify me with Bella forever and it’s had a hand in giving me everything I have, which is a lot,” said Stewart to Radio Times. “It’s undeniable that a lot of people will know me for that. But whether, personally, that was the one that defined me? Probably not.” ~Graeme Mollison

    God I would hate to have him cast in a TV show!! He might get board playing the same character.

    ^ Of course, which makes you wonder how credible of an actor he is. I was never a “fan” but didn’t mind him so much while he had a certain drive. It seems Kristen sucked the little life out of him and they’d just rather be at home smoking pot all day.
