Rachelle Lefevre
recently chatted with the London Free Press about the various directors in the Twilight Saga series and the relationship between co-stars Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson!
“They have fantastic chemistry together on-screen and you know that’s the kind of thing that becomes the source of rumours,” Rachelle says.
“People want them to be together. People would love to hear that — that they fell in love on the set and so they read that into everything they see. But all I’ve seen are two people who have beautiful chemistry on-screen and are bonded … When two people go through that experience together — the fandom and everything — it’s going to bond them.”
Rachelle also talked about Chris Weitz taking the reins. “It could have been bad,” she admits. “But I think because Harry Potter went through it first to their benefit, we were like, ‘The Potter kids went through a director shift and they were OK, so we’ll be OK, too.’”
“And we were. Chris came in with such a clear idea of what the movie was. And he paid respect to what had come before — so it was kind of seamless.”
Rachelle also discusses her character’s evolution. “In the first movie, because I didn’t have as much screen time, I wanted to be very clear. I wanted to convey energy and be very present, but also very playful. And that’s because (Victoria) enjoyed stalking Bella with James.
“But when James is killed, it becomes about exacting revenge, which comes from a totally different place. It’s not just a game any more.”
