In a new interview with Fandango, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 director Bill Condon gets into some comments that dedicated fans will appreciate.
One of them is about Edward’s backstory, which he says to expect more of in this film.
Quotage:
Fandango: We get so much of Bella’s and Jacob’s view in the last book, but what specific parts do we get to see more of Edward’s point of view?
Condon: There’s something that we put in there that’s referred to in an earlier book. We actually get to see Edward in his early life as a vampire and hear his thoughts about that. There’s a glimpse of him in� Twilight describing how he got turned, how he got changed by Carlisle, but this is more extensive. I do think we get more inside Edward and he changes a lot, too. The wedding has an effect on him. There’s an aspect of self-loathing to him about what he did when he was a vampire [earlier] that he releases through Bella’s love. I think that’s a fun thing to watch.
This was a great idea in order to add some good content to a book that was split in half. We’ll be very interested in seeing this! Read the entire interview right here, and thanks to The Lexicon for the tip.
