Washington, March 04 – ‘Twilight’ director Catherine Hardwicke has spilled the beans on how Kristen Stewart fell in love with Robert Pattinson.
Hardwicke said Stewart felt an instant attraction to Pattinson when the couple first met for their audition.
“I looked at a couple pictures and was like, ‘I’m not sure.’ He had been fired from his last job, he was unemployed, he was in debt,” Contactmusic quoted Hardwicke as saying.
“I have footage of their first meeting at my dining-room table. Kristen was like, ‘It’s got to be Rob!’ She felt connected to him from the first moment. That electricity, or love at first sight, or whatever it is.”
While Stewart, 20, eventually managed to convince the director to hire Pattinson, Hardwicke revealed she made him promise not to get romantically involved with his co-star because she was only 17 at the time and he was four years older.
She explained to Newsweek: “I told him, ‘You’ve got to realize that Kristen is 17 years old. She’s underage. You’ve got to focus, dude, or you’re going to be arrested.’ I made him swear on a stack of Bibles.” (ANI)
