I've gotten over that by now. But I remember the first time reading the book, I was like, 'Wait, Jacob's been trying to get Bella this entire time, and he strikes out, so he goes for her child?' I was so confused. It took me a second.

I signed this girl's arm. And the next day, a family member shot me an email, and it was a link to this girl who had my signature tattooed on her arm. I was like, 'Man, that's dedication. I'm sorry you did that.'
My favorite movie is 'Iron Man.' I tell people that I think it's just as good as 'Dark Knight,' if not better, and people tell me I'm crazy. I really like 'Iron Man.'
What's really important to me is somebody who can totally let loose and pretty much be themselves and have fun.
I got to work with legendary director Garry Marshall.
When you make a movie independently, you raise the money beforehand, and then you make the movie kind of by yourself.
Bulking up for the Twilight films was one of the hardest things I've done... I had to give myself a lot of pep talks, as there was just so much gym time.
I was exercising so hard that I began to lose weight.
Doing a lot of drama earlier in my career and now exploring comedy has been a treat for me, and I've had an absolute blast, and I hope to continue.
You've got to keep your eye on the prize and do what you love to do.
Nothing comes without hard work. I've been taught that by many people growing up.
When we're not filming or promoting then, you know, I live two different lives. So when I'm just in Taylor's life, and I'm just, you know, at home spending time with friends, it's great, it's a totally different life than this 'Twilight' world for sure. But it's amazing; our fans are the most passionate fans in the world!
Honesty and loyalty are key. If two people can be honest with each other about everything, that's probably the biggest key to success.
I do love traveling, so I've been able to travel a lot.
It's important to work through things in a relationship. You can't just give up because you're frustrated. It's most important to talk things through together. And that, for me, has been the way I've best resolved problems in the past.
My parents are pretty good about keeping me humble. They brought me up good.
Honestly, I try and stay away from what's been written about me, because if you let that stuff get to you and it's not true it can drive you crazy. One thing that I have heard recently which is not true, I didn't say it, is that I believe I was quote saying 'I will never take my shirt off for a movie again.' I didn't say that.
I'm re-teaming with the producers of 'Twilight,' whom I love and who I have an amazing relationship with.
I love challenging myself, doing different things, and exploring different areas that I haven't been to or gone to before.
I try and keep up with the top 10 on iTunes.
I'm not sure what 'cheeky' means. I hear it used so much and in so many different ways, I can't identify the real meaning of it.
'Braveheart' is way up there for me.
I am that weirdo that chooses the difficult route down the side of the street.
I've completely fallen in love with the U.K., and I'd love to spend a couple of months a year there.
If you constantly pound your muscles, they'll never have time to repair.
I definitely love Australia. I've been to Sydney and Melbourne a couple of times, and I love those places.
It's hard enough condensing 500 pages into a movie, and it would have been impossible to condense 800.
Nobody's ever wanted to start a fight. I stay away from all that stuff.
My dream as an actor growing up was always to challenge myself to different genres, different roles, and it's actually rare that an actor's given that opportunity to do that.
I always played sports when I was young. I played football and baseball for eight years. I loved football.
If I were trying to impress a girl, I wouldn't get all super dressed because I would look like I was trying too hard. Instead, I would probably wear what I normally would.
I like to have fun, but I don't think of myself as being funny. But I'm a big jokester, so I make fun of myself a lot!
Filming 'Eclipse' - Eclipse was my favorite book so I was really excited to start filming the movie. I just love that it's the height of the love triangle. 'Twilight' develops Edward and Bella's relationship, 'New Moon' develops Jacob and Bella's and in 'Eclipse,' the three of them are physically together.
Yeah, Jacob transforms a lot in 'New Moon.' Not only physically, but mentally and emotionally as well. So it was a matter of getting to the gym and eating the right foods and a lot of it. But also, reading and studying the book and my character over and over and over again so I could have his character down as well.
I think of 'Twilight' in terms of the fact that the popularity has given us the opportunity to do the things that we love, and now we can pick and choose.
I actually wasn't much of a book reader at all before the 'Twilight' series. They just draw you in, and people love them. They're terrific books.
I'd love to do a movie with Denzel Washington, or some action star such as Matt Damon or Mark Wahlberg would be really cool, too.
I'd have to say the biggest transformation would be my schedule. I'm really, really busy, but it's a lot of fun.
I think the one film that I could watch over and over and over again - and I have - is 'Man on Fire.'
British girls are really funny, so I definitely think we'd get along.
There are pros and cons to everything but especially with what I have chosen. There are cons - the privacy level and everything that comes with it - but I feel there are a lot more pros. And I am doing what I love to do, so I am not complaining at all.
Honestly, for a big city, London is by far my favourite city on earth, and I'm not just saying that!
I've found the world's most versatile word - 'cheeky.' The amount of ways you guys can use the word 'cheeky' is quite impressive.
You've got to keep pushing, keep driving, because in this business, you're going to hear 'no' a lot more than you hear 'yes.'
Regular martial arts is traditional, with no music and no flips choreograhed into it. But extreme martial arts is choreographed to music. It's very fast-beat uptempo, and you put a lot of acrobatic maneuvers into the routine.
I get nervous before everything - dates, filming, award shows. I just don't want to say something stupid. But as soon as I step out on that stage, or as soon as I show up to a date, it all goes away, and I just have a great time with whoever I'm with.
I love to have fun and goof around and be silly, so anybody who can also do that is good for me.
I'm a big fan of all those singing competition shows.
I'm not the biggest motorcycle fan - they're cool and a lot of fun, but they're scary as well!
When we were filming 'Twilight,' we didn't expect anything. We were just filming a movie that we wanted the fans to enjoy. And then it kinda just blew into this whole other world.
