Här beskriver Robert sitt första möte med Kristen på provspelningen inför twilight, 2008!
"When I got into bed with Kristen, I said, ‘I’ve only known you for an hour and we are in bed.’ I think I must have gone way over the top with it as well, because I remember looking up afterwards and director Catherine Hardwicke had a look on her face as if to say, ‘What are you doing? You look like you’re having a seizure.’ I felt something with Kristen during that scene, which very rarely happens between two actors. I went out of the room really wanting the part and I sent an email to Catherine about it. I then read all the books in aweekend.
