The most interesting test case on the subject of stars in recent years has been the “Twilight” franchise. Though these films definitely have their share of other salable elements — CGI, sci-fi and horror themes, the wildly popular Stephenie Meyer novels — there’s no debate that people are also coming to the theater to see their stars, Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner.At least Summit Entertainment, the company the releases the “Twilight” films, thinks so; that’s why they just renegotiated their contracts for the series’ final installment to the tune of $25 million against 7.5% of the theatrical gross each, according to Vulture.com. But “StewPattnNer”’s appeal hasn’t translated to other projects yet: the Pattinson star vehicle “Remember Me” made about 6% of what “New Moon” grossed; Stewart’s Runaways biopic (with fellow Twilighter Dakota Fanning) earned just $3.5 million, not bad for a indie film, not great for a rising star branching out from her the role that made her. Audiences definitely want to see these actors in this franchise. But a true movie star is a draw regardless of role.

Taylor Lautner may reportedly be back in the arms of his childhood sweetheart but the Twilight actor has revealed that like his character, Jacob Black he is obsessed with Bella Swan.
Lautner, who plays the werewolf in the vampire flicks has claimed that he can see why his character and Robert Pattinson’s Edward Cullen are crazy about Miss. Swan because she is ‘plain.’
The 18-year old told Now magazine: “‘She’s just this plain girl, which sometimes,
I know for me, is attractive”
He continued: “She’s just an average girl, she’s clumsy, but I think she’s good-looking, so I don’t know… she just has this thing about her, and Kristen Stewart plays her so well.’
Taylor, who recently turned down a role in X-Men: First Class also confessed that he enjoyed filming Eclipse and like pal R-Pattz, enjoyed the scenes between Jacob and Bella.
Lautner stated: ” I love that the action level is stepped up. But also Eclipse is like the height of the love triangle between Bella, Edward and Jacob and the three of them are physically getting closer.”
He added: “My favourite scene is probably the one with the sleeping bag. It’s a fun scene.”
Glamour: Did you notice the Hype around that Robert Pattinson & CO.?
Sabrina: Yes, and how. It really is unbelievable that the fans will find all these locations. On my first day of shooting, we are driven into the middle of the woods, I would have never found this way – and when we got there, there were already dozens of fans waiting. I was completely shocked, but my driver said, the fans usually know already, which is rotated before it even know the driver. While it is all off and they do not come anywhere near the set, but for the fans is the greatest, when a car drove past in which they might sit Robert Pattinson!Glamour: Did you meet Robert personally?
Sabrina: Yes, I sat with two times with him in the mask. That was altogether a very calm and really pleasant situation. I also met Kristen. I respect Robert and Kristen and the job they do and am very grateful that I got to know them.Glamour: Did you feel Robert & Kristen were arrogant?
Sabrina: It is surprising that the actors who had more minor roles in “Eclipse”, I met with a much greater arrogance, as Robert and Kristen. Some people did not even shake my hand or looked at me in the eyes. That was all very superficial. Kristen and Robert on the other hand looked at me very interested, shook my hand and listened as I spoke. I found them very enjoyable and authentic, very different than you expected.Glamour: At that time, so the rumor bubbled to an affair of the two, you see something like this?
Sabrina: No. I only saw them together once and I think they are way too professional to kiss and cuddle on setGlamour: You were four days immersed in “Eclipse”, what were your highlights?
Sabrina: Meeting Robert and Kristen. And to see how human the two really are. I would love to do them any good because I feel so sorry. You need to hide all the time, because at the fences hang the teens. They don’t have a single minute for themselves. That one still remains is so normal in my eyes an insane performance. Also, I was taken seriously as an actress, I was allowed to speak in the trailer by director David Slade, like any other actor too – and with him about my role. It was great.
