Nikki Reed intimidated by Eclipse scenes
Nikki Reed has admitted that she was intimidated by her scenes in Twilight: Eclipse. The actress, who plays vampire Rosalie, said that she felt pressure not to disappoint fans when filming her character’s backstory for the latest instalment in the series, Digitalspy mediates.
“I was torn, because I was definitely looking forward to it,” she told MTV News.
“I mean, I read the first three books before we began filming Twilight so I knew what I had in store if we made all three movies. But I was obviously very intimidated, and I felt a little insecure, and I was nervous, and maybe I should not be saying all these things, but I was.”
She added that she was initially uncomfortable with her larger role as she was used to co-stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart having the main storylines.
“It’s scary. I never felt the pressure up until shooting Eclipse because we’re all a part of this thing, but it was really Rob and Kristen and then Taylor Lautner in the other movies,” she said.
“But I really was nervous about having to shoot that whole sequence… I think it’s a very dark and dramatic backstory that Rosalie has, and Stephenie Meyer certainly gave me plenty to work with. But I know that the fans have expectations, and I’ve never been a part of something that existed before I became a part of it.”
