Kristen, who plays Bella Swan in the films, hadn’t heard of the books and knew nothing about Twilight until they sent her a script.

In an interview with Mexican magazine 15a20, Kristen said: ‘I had never heard of the books before knowing about the project, and to be honest I didn’t have time to read the script the first time they sent it to me.’

‘I wasn’t impressed with the synopsis, I thought it was shallow and not very believable, but I ended up reading the script and loved the story right away, I really wanted to play Bella.’
