I'm trying to sign up and do movies that I'll be proud of it. That's kind of how I think about it.

I actually quite like working with kids and I like working with animals, which everybody says you shouldn't do. It makes you feel like you're not acting, as soon as you have someone who's providing stuff to react to.

I didn't want to get stuck in pretty, public school roles, or I knew I'd end up as some sort of caricature.

People were asking me how I'd feel when it all ends, on the first movie [of The Twilight Saga], and I don't think I've ever felt more completely bewildered knowing that I only have a month of Twilight stuff left to do.

Having a persona people recognize, it's the thing that probably gets you paid the most - but it's also the thing that virtually every actor in the world doesn't want. 'Cause, like, no one would believe me if I wanted to play something ultra-realistic, like a gangster or something.

The other night I went out to have dinner in a London pub and the barmaid had this whole conversation saying, 'You look just like that guy from Twilight'. Every time she came up, she said something like, 'You literally could be his brother'. But she never put two and two together.

I haven't really decided to be an actor yet! I started doing plays when I was about 15 or 16. I only did it because my dad saw a bunch of pretty girls in a restaurant and he asked them where they came from and they said drama group. He said, 'Son, that is where you need to go.

When I was flying to Rome, we flew over London I felt like bursting into tears. It's part of me, so I can't leave London behind for good.

It's supposed to feel totally foreign [to play in a series], every single time. But, going back for another go at it is good, on the one hand, but it's also bad, on another hand, because your ideas dry up sometimes, and also you get lazy sometimes because you're around the same people.

Peter [Facinelli] would be so good at doing that. I want him to do the Beyoncé biopic.

I get a lot more abuse in England. That's just a general English attitude. I did the same thing to famous people. It's just your instinct.

Most of the time I'm by myself finding the next thing. Being an A&R guy, basically. I don't know how long I can do this for. I'm constantly fascinated by actors who are so confident with their career that they do a project and then go on vacation.

It's always been strange to me that someone can say they're a vampire fan. I'm not a non-fan, but it's such an unusual thing to be a fan of. That's like saying, I love zombie movies! I just love 'em! They're my favorite! That's more of a psychological problem than being an actual fan.

There was one rumor that I saw in a magazine saying I was pregnant. I thought that was brilliant and it still crops up now. But it's definitely not true. I can promise you that.
