Entertainment Weekly’s 1st look at Renesmee of ‘Breaking Dawn’: perfect?

Kristen Stewart Robert Pattinson

Entertainment Weekly has been graced with the very first look at the long-awaited Renesmee of Breaking Dawn – Part II fame. Of course, this highly anticipated character is the child of Bella Swan and Edward Cullen and is played by a young actress named Mackenzie Foy. Now EW has the big reveal of photos of the fledgling family and extension of the Cullen clan. Having read (and begrudgingly enjoyed) the books and watched (and moderately hated) the movies, I can safely say that — as far as physicality is concerned — the casting directors nailed this one. Here are some details from EW.com:

Kristen Stewart Robert Pattinson

The Cullens are a family unlike any other.

At the end of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1, Kristen Stewart’s Bella gave birth to a half-vampire, half-mortal child named Renesmee. In Breaking Dawn – Part 2, the fifth and final installment of the mega-successful movie franchise, Bella and husband, Edward (Robert Pattinson), will fight to protect their little girl from the Volturi clan.

Up until now, the trio have not been seen together in the same photograph. Real-life loves Stewart, 22, and Pattinson, 26, “were amazing” with Foy, 11, director Bill Condon, 56, says in the June 22 issue of Entertainment Weekly. “It really brought something paternal out in Rob, and Kristen was especially protective. I’d have to interrupt them when they were in deep conversation to get going with a scene.”

According to Foy, her onscreen parents “are super-nice.”

Finding the right actress to portray Renesmee was no easy task. “It’s a hugely important part,” Condon explains. “There were a lot of kids. But this was kind of obvious. It was one of those rare times when you see something — like with an apartment or house — and it feels good and you just need to take it. I felt that way, like, ‘Oh, this is good.'”

Stewart was amazed by the similarities she shares with Foy. “Even our hands look similar,” she tells Entertainment Weekly. “It was kind of strange, but it’s funny how it actually helps. It’s like, ‘Oh hey, you look like me, kid! Come on!!'”

Certainly, Mackenzie does resemble both of her onscreen parents … not that it matters, really. The Twilight movies are not exactly known for continuity as far as its actors’ physical appearances go (seriously, what is up with Esme’s morphing hair?), but it’s a nice little detail that Mackenzie looks like the perfect hybrid of Bella and Edward. Of course, there’s also the icky bit about Jacob falling in love with her as a baby. Er, imprinting. Whatever.

Here are some of the posters that have already been released for Breaking Dawn 2. I have to admit to laughing when I spotted the first two in the theater last weekend.

    I see Stewart finally has grown to the height she claims to be mentally: 5’10”.
    The disgusted expression on her face is the same as always too. Her head looks gigantic.

  2. Hubbahun says:

    Esme’s hair?? What about Jasper’s!! ;D (although admittedly they probably grew it longer to try and cover up Jackson Rathbone’s appalling acting – seriously dude) Also, I don’t get why you laughed at the posters – seem okay to me. That little girl is gorgeous and yes, perfect casting.

    • Amelia says:

      Is it bad I used to have a thing for Jackson Rathbone when he did that flippy thing with the baseball bat in the first film?
      Tbh I’m a bit underwhelmed with the promo pics. I think it’s because the internet’s been saturated with them since 2008 though.

      • jermsmom says:

        No, not bad – I must have hit rewind about 10 times just to watch the baseball scene and see Jasper flip the bat. I was like a gerbil on speed with the remote. I also absolutely loved the song Supermassive Blackhole and Alice’s dainty ballerina wind-up.
        I shall probably regret this moment of true confession!

      • amelia says:

        Jermsmom, I think you may be my soulmate, I listened to supermassive black hole for about a month straight afterwards…!!

      • jamie says:

        lol

      • Dawn K says:

        Amelia, I did that too! Fell in love with him right on the spot! lol

      • DreamyK says:

        Yep. Watched a clip of that many a time. Dude was hot! Seeing him weirdly dressed on the red carpet these days, not so hot.

  3. Jackie O says:

    what? there is another one of these awful movies coming out?

    wow. maybe i am starting to understand why these 2 actors are so miserable all the time.

  4. beyonce's bump says:

    She’s a pretty little girl. I have read all the twilight books and watched all twilight movies, yea that’s right, I am not ashamed to say it, okay, I am…but whatever, I cannot wait to watch this last instalment…its not the pinnacle of great acting but I really like the cheesy love triangle bits. *embarrassed face*.

    • Minky says:

      I’m with you! I look forward to seeing the movie and the books are the fastest, easiest bath time reading when I want to evoke the feelings of being 14 and giddy over some crush. Not ground breaking literature, but definitely amusing!

    • deep says:

      I’m not embarrassed to say it at all..I LOVE IT!! And, I can’t wait to see the last installment! That little girl is really pretty and does look like she could be their child. I have seen all the twilight movies more than once. Love it!! The posters don’t even bother me. The only thing I have been disappointed about is the last movie. It was a bit draggy. IMO they should have made the last two installments into one movie. But, no they had to make me wait. And…I can’t wait!! A fan and not ashamed. 🙂

    • Janet says:

      What’s to watch? The first half of the book was ridiculous and the second half was a crashing bore. Nothing happens. That “epic battle” with the Volturi was beyond stupid. Everybody stands around yacking at each other and then they all turn around and go home.

  5. Glimmer Bunny says:

    Naw, she’s so cute! But I also feel really icky about Jacob imprinting on her, not just because she’s a child, but because he dated her mom! How disgusting is that?!

    • aquarius64 says:

      True. Jacob can’t have the mother so he’ll take the daughter. I’m sorry, but ewww.

    • mia girl says:

      Lautner does not think it’s so creepy (ha), but Pattinson is right there with us…

      EW article:
      “Everyone thinks it’s so funny, and I laugh along with them, but it’s important for me to keep in my mind that it’s as simple as a lifelong bond. It’s not nearly as creepy as everybody likes to joke.” That “everybody” includes Pattinson, needless to say. “Oh, I can’t wait till he has to do live TV,” Pattinson says of Lautner with a gleeful cackle. “Did you ask him if his taste in women has changed? The first scene I saw them together, I literally could not stop laughing. I wouldn’t have been able to do it.”

    • deep says:

      Jacob and Bella didn’t really date..they just hung out together.

  6. marie says:

    will be so glad when the series is over, can’t end quick enough. the girl is cute though.

    • deep says:

      Well, nobody forced you to watch any of them. So, what do you mean you can’t wait for it to be over? Like I said, you didn’t have to watch them. And, you don’t have to watch the last one.

      • marie says:

        kinda touchy eh? no worries, I have no plans to see this crap and I’m quite ready for the twihard community to fade-that will only happen when the series is over.. or are you a twihard FOREVER?

      • deep says:

        You never know. Could be…could be not. But, I have seen the movies several times. And, yes, I do enjoy them. 🙂
        And, no, I’m not touchy at all.

  7. Hubbahun says:

    Just occurred to me that the little girl looks like a younger version of Tessa from Suburgatory!

  8. Eve says:

    There’s still one movie left? o_O

    No, actually, it’s more like this 😥

  9. TXCinderella says:

    Judging by her looks, she makes a perfect Renesmee’ (hate that name). I guess I’m the exception here, but I’m looking forward to the movie.

    • Esmom says:

      That horrible name is what provoked me to finally throw the book at the wall. Up until then I had been enjoying the books somewhat. I’d say the first one was the best and they went (steeply) downhill from there.

      That name is like nails on a chalkboard to me, I can’t even type it.

      • jesstar says:

        Yes! I know the name is Renee+Esme, but I’ll forever see Ren+smee. Such is the power of Meyer’s horrible writting!

      • Erinn says:

        I threw the book at the wall too! I stopped reading it after I found out Jacob imprinted. Honestly, I liked the books when I was in high school and they first came out… then I thought about them and realized just how sketchy they were.

  10. Katie Too says:

    I honestly feel bad for Stewart and Pattinson, this is albatross around their necks. Time and distance from these abominations will show if they really have chops.

    • Kat says:

      Lol, Katie. Look at that cover – they both just look so tired now. And the little girl is like ‘what have i gotten myself into?’

  11. spiderpig says:

    i’d rather have my period non-stop 4 2 months with xcruciating cramping than ever be dragged 2 watch this piece of mormon backwater housewife fantasy drivel. Ever.

    • AmyLynne says:

      Thanks for sharing.

    • Lindy says:

      That made me laugh! I totally agree. I felt like I had to read the 1st book because I teach college kids, and half my students were obsessed. It is totally Mormon fantasy porn, and it is totally ridiculous crap.

    • Jenna says:

      As someone in the middle of JUST that (I don’t know who’s wheaties I pissed in during another life, but this is seriously starting to suck hard core) I’m now actually curious about the books & movies.

      Dear gods above, am I about to lose my cred of being one of the few women left on the planet who has never read the series or watched any of the movies? (Nah. Tried with the first book and chipped the plaster in my bedroom from chucking it so hard across the room in misery. And this coming from a gal who made – skin of the teeth only, but made it – through Tess of the D’Urbervilles)

    • Sloane Wyatt says:

      God, me too! And I’m post menopausal by two years!

    • WickedSteppMom says:

      Seriously, my best friend is a Mormon (I’m not) who happens to live in the middle of Absolutely Nowhere, Utah…and even she wouldn’t touch this crap w/a ten-foot pole. Not even to have something to discuss w/”the good Mormon wives” (her words, not mine.) However, one of our friends who still lives in the Chicago suburbs right near where we all grew up has read every book & is at the midnight showing of every movie on the day it’s released.

    • LAK says:

      Wait….none of you have read THE HOST and the movie to come to a cinema near you starring that girl in ATONEMENT???

      same studio, same writer, same drivel.

      • Erinn says:

        I enjoyed the host more… still drivel, but not as obnoxious. I wish they hadn’t made it worse by making a movie of it.

  12. DanaG says:

    If they are both Vampires and are the living dead how could she have a baby and how would it age in the first place? Or are these special vampires…and in case your wondering no I haven’t read the books. If it wasn’t for this series we wouldn’t even have heard of Pattinson or Stewart. Maybe she would find something to smile about she always looks so angst ridden like the world is on her shoulders. Instead of realizing she is just an actress in a popular yet not so good series of Vampire movies.

    • muffin says:

      danaG – she was a mortal when the baby was conceived and all during the pregnancy. she only became a vampire during the delivery of said baby. the baby ages because it’s half mortal, at a fast rate because it’s half vampire where everything is accelerated.

      • antipodean says:

        Yeh but I thought they were supposed to be like stone, obviously that part of the male vamp’s anatomy works, Meyer should make up her mind when writing, the vamp is either one or the other

    • Rhea says:

      @DanaG: Honestly, it’s good that you haven’t read the book. It’s best if you just watch the movie. Reading the book is more painful. -_-

    • Sisi says:

      the only reason it is possible is because the writer decided it was possible, and the writer is full of it 🙂

    • Janet says:

      Beats the hell out of me. If the only fluid in a vampire’s body is venom, what could he impregnate her with? How could he even get it up, let alone get it in? And his body temperature is supposed to be ice cold, so can you picture what the wedding night must have been like? I dunno about anyone else, but being impaled on an icicle dick is not my ideal of romance. The whole storyline sucked.

      • clumsyme says:

        Bahahaha!!!! Icicle Dick!!! I hadn’t even thought about that.

      • Sapphire says:

        OMGs, I can’t stand the visual! Frostbite and all!

      • Janet says:

        @clumsyme: Can you imagine that thing going inside of you? I’d be like, EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

      • the original bellaluna says:

        Janet, we’re sympatico here. (But if your mind goes to JT singing that in Bad Teacher, we’re THROUGH!)

        You (WE) are opening a whole can of worms here that extends from True Blood to Twilight and every other letter of the alphabet involving vampires.

        IF you are dead (ie no circulatory system) how is it possible to achieve an erection? All this rampant sexing and breaking of furniture (and cherries) is rendered moot.

        If you don’t have bodily fluids, you must own stock in lube; provided the aforementioned problem is miraculously solved.

        Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE a good Eric f*cking scene as much as the next gal. I just have a problem with the logistics. (Kind of like my “how the f*ck do Bubble Guppies have an apartment fire when they live under the ocean?” moment.)

    • Theresa says:

      From the sounds of it, this series requires not only an astronomical suspension of disbelief, but also of taste, common sense and a hold on your knickers.

      Haven’t read the books, only saw the first movie and no intention of seeing anything else. However, I will cut the filmmakers some slack; making movies is about making money. As long as Twilight generates some money, there is a chance that it will lead to the creation of some decent films in the future. Summit is responsible for Hurt Locker and Push, and hopefully more excellent challenging films!

      • Ann says:

        Um, yes, it does require suspension of disbelief. It’s about VAMPIRES. Which are not real.

        The Twilight story aside, don’t most movies require suspension of disbelief? They’re fantasies! Have you ever in real life seen an alien, zombie, wizard, werewolf, bionic man, time traveler, superhero, fairy, etc.?

        I never followed vampire lore, and I know that Meyer went in a different direction with her stories. But really, how can people debate about what is the right physiology etc. of a vampire? They are a fantasy creature. Not real. So, I guess an author can make up whatever they want about them.

    • LAK says:

      @dadag – Pattinson had already been immortalised as Cedric Diggory before he got on board the Twilight train.

      @janet – icicle d***! brilliant! LOL!

      Stephenie isn’t finished with us. Next year, we get THE HOST. possibly the only redeeming thing about the film is that it stars Sioarse [sp?] Ronan and is directed by Andrew Nicoll.

      • antipodean says:

        Please dear god no, that book is bloody awful. I havnt managed to get past chapter two and I have had the bloody thing for a year, it is so boring, and without knowing the outcome or the story I truly don’t know how a movie can be made out of it.

  13. muffin says:

    i agree! the movies are awful!! (i liked the books) and they seem so LOW BUDGET. my least favorite was breaking dawn 1 with all the focus on the marriage and pregnancy. and they lost me at the talking dogs. SERIOUSLY?

  14. aquarius64 says:

    I’m sorry the imprinting is too icky. Summit and the three leads better hope that plot line doesn’t keep non Twi-hards out of the theaters (and impact the box office).

    • johnnybadboytapia says:

      lol yeah i agree imprinting is pretty gross… I tried to explain it to someone that had never read the books and the look of disgust only got worse as i tried to explain it.

      • BRE says:

        I gave that “look” when my friend who has read the books explained it to me. I guess in writing it doesn’t sound so bad.

  15. johnnybadboytapia says:

    I loved the books and the movies, I will admit thatthe movies are crap tho, but i like crappy movies( which expalins why i went to see battleship)

  16. nina says:

    wow, that little girl looks like both of them, that’s kinda of creepy almost.lol

    Of course the movies are crap, but some movies are bad crap and then some movies transcend into Mariah Carey-Glitter kitschy awesome crap. Twilight movies are definitely the latter and deserve a dvd rental.

    • It is ME!! says:

      Glitter really is the best in kitsch. Its one of those movies you watch when you have to stay up for 24 hours on duty. The laughing helps keep you awake!

  17. DeltaJuliet says:

    I thought Reneeseme was, like, 3 in the book? Am I misremembering or are they taking some artistic liberty?

    • amelia says:

      Mutant vampire genes will do that to ya, they feed ’em real different in the cullen household, y’all 😉

    • Linny says:

      I’m with you. I understood her to be months old but kind of looking like a 3 year old physically and speaking like a 10 year old. This girl looks 10. She’s really a good pick looks wise but way older than I imagined when I read.

  18. lucy2 says:

    Cute kid, horrible character name (a very juvenile move by the author), and I can’t wait until these movies are done. I only saw the first and I think it was equally terrible as the books. I should have quit after the first book but so many raved about it, and I thought they were awful.

    Side note – saw Snow White, and actually thought Kristen wasn’t bad at all in it, and that she looked really beautiful through most of it. Nothing compared to the perfection of Charlize, but still not bad.

  19. Anname says:

    I can’t wait to hear Pattinson’s comments during promotion. He won’t hold back on the weirdness factor! I know some people knock him for not being appreciative, but I think he can respect what the series has done for him, and still acknowledge the strangeness of it all.

  20. grabbyhands says:

    The only thing I care about is that this is the last time one of my Entertainment Weekly covers is going to be wasted on the whole Twilight sage. Also, I’m annoyed that yet another of my Entertainment Weekly covers is going to be wasted on the whole Twilight Saga.

    • cr says:

      Sadly, probably not. The movie’s not released until November, so I’m sure that EW can squeeze a few more Twilight covers until then.

  21. Jade says:

    I will always have a soft spot for this series. It brought a lot of fun and crazy in ’08.
    I’m happy they changed the posters up for the last one.

  22. mia girl says:

    First things first… I will be there, along with my daughter (14) and niece (18) at the midnight showing of the final film in the craptastically enjoyable Twilight saga. I’m saying it and owning it. To us, these movies are bad in the best kind of way and are a shared experience (others include Harry Potter, Hunger Games). Difference is that these are the movies we love AND can not stop making fun of.

    That said, we were rather have-hearted about this final film until we saw these pictures and read the full article. The vamp child (refuse to type that name) looks great and they seem like a cute little family of lame-ass animal blood suckers. Now we are looking forward to the joyful corniness that BD2 promises to be:

    From EW article: They also say there’s some kind of visual valentine to fans in the closing moments. Pattinson, who’s seen a rough cut of the film, found himself surprisingly moved. “The end is so sweet. There’s this nice finality to it,” he says. “Everyone who was watching started crying. It does a serious justice to the series.”

    The cheesefest is going to be epic. 🙂

    • Anname says:

      I totally agree, and enjoy the extreme cheese factor too! Even though I know this series is so goofy, I still love it. I prefer the DVDs though so I can fast forward through all the horrendous wolf stuff.

    • Chickie Baby says:

      I’m totally with you on this one–it will be one epic cheesefest deluxe. And we all know the masses will still show up in herds to see every last minute of it, too!

      While I’m ready to see how the rest of the book translates to the screen, at the same time, I’m ready for it to be done and over with.

      Miss Foy does bear a nice resemblance to Sparkles, though.

  23. Crystal says:

    Oh sweet f*cking baby jesus on rye toast. I cannot wait until this shit is over.

    At this point there are no words that can even convey anything about Twilight. It needs to be taken out to the back, shot, buried, then fifty years later brought up, only to be shot down by another old person who says ‘Now why the hell would you bring that up again?’

    This shoot is so budget aswell. I dunno how they can make someone as attractive as Robert look so bloody ugly in Twilight. That little girl is stunning though.

    The imprinting thing is beyond gross.

    I dunno why they split the last movie into two when NOTHING happens in this damn book. There’s all this preperation for a fight that doesn’t even happen. What a joke.

    My younger sister(19) is a twihard and the bitch was nearly in tears when she saw this. I can’t believe I’m related to a twihard.

    (I want Bella’s boots. They’re cute)

    • AmyLynne says:

      Agreed! I love them!

    • Emma says:

      Wow, “I can’t believe I’m related to a twihard”. The ignorance of that comment could’ve blown me off my chair. She’s a person, she has her own opinions and you should learn to respect that. Each to their own.

    • marie says:

      ha ha ha, unlike Emma the “I can’t believe I’m related to a twihard” has me laughing so hard I’m in tears, I’ve said the same thing about my nieces, luckily one of them has grown out of it.

    • deep says:

      Wow Crystal..why so bitter over movies that you don’t have to see? Did somebody tie you to a chair and force you to watch them? And, are they gonna tie you to the chair and make you watch the last one? If you don’t like um…don’t watch um.

      • another nina says:

        It’s a joke, deepz. It’s a funny rant…Do you really need this to be explained?

      • Crystal says:

        Do you even go here ???
        (I swear whenever there’s a twilight post we get some stranger bitches that come out of nowhere)

        I’m not bitter. Noone forced me to watch it and I don’t plan on seeing this, I’m just letting everybody know that I think it’s garbage. I assumed this was a public forum where we could post our opinions.

        *looks around* Am I in the wrong place ??

      • another nina says:

        Crystal, dude, I mean they – twihards – are united by an absent sense of humor, that’s the best about them, you know how much I cherish my serious little bitches. But sometimes, like today, they are getting really clinical.

      • deep says:

        @crystal and another nina….LAUGHING MAO!! 🙂
        But, is it necessary to call me a strange bitch? Do you know me? LOL!! 🙂 Both of your post really made me laugh…especially Crystals “looks around..am I in the wrong place?” Ha! 🙂

      • Crystal says:

        @ deep.
        Lol. sorry I use the word bitch way too much but I didn’t mean it in a rude way. Ask my girl another nina…I call everyone, who I’m not familiar with, a stanger bitch. Bad habbit. Forgive me 😉

      • another nina says:

        I concur to everything my gal Crystal says. We are tight like this.

      • deep says:

        @crystal and another nina….no need to apologize. You both made me LOL!! All in good fun…All in good fun BITCHES!! 🙂

      • ORLY says:

        Nina! Crystal! Welcome, Deep!
        Looks like I missed some fun today! I was busy comforting the man since his team loss badly in that soccer business. You guys always stirring trouble! LOL!

      • deep says:

        @ORLY 🙂

  24. carly says:

    I love the movies, I don’t care how chessy they are, and the little girl looks just like them, perfect mix lol, if they have a kid one day the baby might look like her.

    Rob is going to be great during promos, I feel bad for Taylor, and Kristen will be in the middle lol

    • aquarius64 says:

      How true. The trio are on damage control now (with Lautner leading)about the imprinting storyline. Summit should have seen this coming and been better prepared. Better yet, Stephenie Meyers should have Jacob imprint on a female close to his age and avoid the mess all together.

  25. rtms says:

    The imprinting thing is just atrocious when you consider what’s it’s really representing, that of a arranged marriage between the two. Unless the character can make a decision when she’s older to see someone else her future is not up for grabs. This is just Meyers way of setting up a right she thinks needs mending since she couldn’t give Jacob Bella. It’s just sick all the way around.

    • Emma says:

      Have you read the books? I have and the whole imprinting thing wasn’t about that at all, it was more about finding your absolute soul mate and whether it would turn into a romantic relationship or not was up to the parties involved but it could just end up being a friendship, like the one that twins have with eachother. There’s nothing sexual about the imprinting, it’s just pure, platonic love, care and respect.

      • Esmom says:

        Yes on the surface but after reading that the whole series is Mormon propaganda (for example, having sex before marriage can literally kill you) I’m inclined to agree that the relationship’s implications are more sinister than pure platonic love.

      • Emma says:

        Well… I kind of agree with you although I think saying that the whole series is “mormon propaganda” is a bit over the top. Stephenie Meyer is a mormon and therefore her writing mirrors her beliefs, just like any writers beliefs influence their writing. Also, if it IS mormon propaganda, why would that be wrong?

      • Janet says:

        It’s ONE-WAY love, care and respect. Meyer never bothers to address the issue of what happens if some guy imprints on a girl who doesn’t want him. On the contrary, when Bella asks Jacob that question, he responds with what girl wouldn’t want a man with that level of devotion? A girl who wants to make up her own mind, that’s who. When all is said and done, Meyer’s women are nothing but a bunch of Stepford wives.

  26. саша says:

    i think “bella” was aiming for Fierce look, alas she just looks constipated. as always

  27. Choupette says:

    Stupidest name EVER.

  28. Another Nina says:

    Oh geez, stew grimacing, what else is new?… I don’t understand why I can see stew’s whole nose and only 2/3 of rpatz’s? why is “forever” next to Lautner? Isn’t he a dog? And doesn’t he age in dog’s years? Also, I seriously hope twies won’t harass little girl. I think the little vamp is really pretty… And rpatz looked so much better with that gal, he was doing during first movie – Nikki? Now, why is stew grimacing, why is she in pain, what the heck is wrong with her backyard???why is it sticking out here?

    • Emma says:

      I think the idea of the photoshoot is that the camera is representing the Volturi and she’s a mother trying to protect her child against harm. That’s why she’s “grimacing”.

      • Genevieve says:

        @ Emma:

        Agreed. I think her expression reflects the situation she finds herself in. An awful lot of people posting here either haven’t read the books or are hardcore KStew haters.

        Think the cover and photos reflect how the primary actors have grown and become even more gorgeous, if possible. Very pleased with them!

    • Lila says:

      Um, are you being obtuse? They are all looking serious, not just KStew.

      • another nina says:

        There is also a comment above that stew looks constipated. You probably missed it.

      • ORLY says:

        I love when people use the word obtuse in relation to anything Twilight. I keep hearing Edward’s voice calling Bella obtuse. Such wordy wordsters.

      • another nina says:

        Orly, lol! Lila is from across the pond, so I always give her points for originality. Although I can never reciprocate – when I address her, I prefer to use the good ole’ “insane”.

      • Lila says:

        I am simply saying that they all look serious/constipated and that I don’t get acting like KStew is the only one with that look. How is that insane? It is a terrible photo in my opinion.

      • another nina says:

        Pls disregard it, Lila – it was just a cheap joke from my side. I do think that kstew is making some funny face but that’s alright if you disagree.

      • Lila says:

        @anothernina. It’s cool. What I find the worst about that photo is the hair. Couldn’t they have hired a decent hairstylist?

      • ORLY says:

        They made Kstew look 35 in that cover shot. That’s just unfortunate. It’s like no one can do a good photoshoot of the twicast since that the original VF shoot of ’08.

  29. FreeSpiritedGirl says:

    Rofl at that constipated look comment. You got that right! XDD
    Well, forget Esme’s hair, what the hell did they do to Jasper?? He was the coolest and the cutest of them all! I can never forget his baseball bat flipping scene. God knows how many times I watched the scene! They destroyed his hair. Edward’s hairstyle in part one was the best. Later it went all geeky. I hated his look in BD1 the most.
    Mackenzie is soooo beautiful! I wish she was my lil sister! ^.^
    Look at Kristen! Look at those 5 inches heels! O_O She is trying to look fierce like Lara Croft or something. But she just can’t! She looks so ugh!

    • Janet says:

      You noticed that about Edward’s hair, too? And for God’s sake, what happened to his eyebrows? In the first movie they were gorgeous; in the third movie they were so shaggy they were practically hanging down to his nose.

  30. the original bellaluna says:

    Renesmee. I CAN’T with that name. But the little one saddled with playing her is gorgeous! And I do particularly like that pic where they are “protecting” her, like any parent would from a threat. So good on that!

    Seriously, if you had ONE SHOT at having a child and naming them, would Renesmee be ANYWHERE on your list? (Maybe for a third or fourth middle name, but it wouldn’t be in the top 50, right?) RIGHT?

  31. jermsmom says:

    I was stuck in a job that i absolutely hated and dreaded going to. I needed every little boost I could to get my energy going so every single morning one of the first things i would do was play the video of the baseball scene with Supermassive Blackhole – silly, but it just gave me the punch i needed to get my day started.

  32. aang says:

    this stuff is crap. anne rice wrote way better vampire books.

  33. only1shmoo says:

    I may be in the minority, because I could tolerate the movies, but I FLAT OUT HATED THE BOOKS!!! The movies are bearable because A) each film has a mind-blowing soundtrack to compensate for the sh*tty story line, and B) they give you a reprieve from Bella’s cesspool of a brain and incessant whining. God, these books should be exercised by a certified priest and burned!
    I will shamefully admit, however, that I’ve been anxious to see pictures of the Cullen offspring (I still can’t tolerate hearing/saying “Renesme”), and I must say, Mackenzie Foy is a stunning kid.

    • Reece says:

      From the bad books (although I will say in the beginning, I liked that they were so easy to read. I remember being in a heavy classics phase when I 1st picked up Twilight) to the craptastic movies to the psycho fanbase, the soundtracks have been the only redeeming quality in this whole franchise.

  34. Janet says:

    @ only 1 shmoo: that makes us a minority of two. The movies (at least Twilight and Eclipse) were barely tolerable. The books were vomitous. That woman can’t write her way out of a wet paper bag.

  35. Bonnie says:

    I think these pics are awesome and i loved the movies and i cannot wait for breaking dawn part 2 to come out….ill be the first in line to see it!!!! :):):):):)

  36. Rue says:

    Stephenie Meyer has said that she regrets naming Bella and Edward’s kid the name “Reneesme.”

    • mia girl says:

      That shit can never be forgiven.
      Never. Never. Never.

      We should force Meyer to right the name 1000 times a day for the rest of her existence. Maybe then we can forgive…

      Nope. Never. Never. Never.

    • Katija says:

      I don’t mean this in a hostile way against either of you… but am I the only one who doesn’t see the BFD? I actually kind of get her logic… they couldn’t have named the kid “Sarah.”

      • Janet says:

        Well they could have named her Chloe or something exotic but “Renesmee”? C’mon now, would you want to be stick with that name in middle school?

      • another nina says:

        I dunno, rnsme sounds like screech to me…

      • mia girl says:

        Katija – sure, mashing two parents’ names together has some logic to it, but she could have done better with say, Carlie (ha!). Instead she created this undeniably awful name.

    • truthSF says:

      I think MK said it best:

      “Renesmee sounds like some shit Celine Dion would shout at her husband if he woke up not knowing who she is. “RUHNAY, IZ ME!””

  37. Reece says:

    LMAO @ this entire post.

  38. Katija says:

    Yeah, I’m not cool enough to be cynical. When it comes to Twilight, the cheesier and craptastic-er, the better. And we have come a long way from the takes-itself-too-seriously-ness of the first film. Ladies and gentlemen, we have hit the ground zero of cheese, and I will be the first in line opening night.

  39. It is ME!! says:

    Only thing I can say: I hate the name Renesmee.

  40. D1 says:

    These pictures make me want to be a vampire – apparently, you get an awesome henna rinse as a free gift upon being turned.

  41. Anna says:

    While I pretty much hate the Twilight films (and have refused to read the books) because of Kristen Stewart, I do like the second picture, in which she is standing in front of the girl. This may be the first picture ever (not just from Twilight stills, but all her other junk too) in which I really like Kristen. Her clothes and styling are perfection and she even manages to look a little fierce, as opposed to bored-to-tears or dead-in-the-face.

  42. dillene says:

    “FOREVER”

    Is it wrong that I read that in Pinkie Pie’s voice?

  43. sup says:

    for the first time i support photoshop because those close ups (actually all photoshoots) of kstew are painful to look at.

  44. Jaxx says:

    I just saw the Snow White movie and I couldn’t believe how awful she was. She had that same constipated expression through the entire movie and her mouth hanging open like she is just so proud of those beaver teeth of hers. My daughter said she wanted to scream at the screen: Close Your Mouth!

    It’s not as if she had any great lines in the script but she was just so wooden through all of it. She better thank god for the Twilight years because when her little twi-hard fans start growing up and flocking to the theaters she is going to be out of a job.

  45. LittleDeadGirl says:

    They look good and appearance wise they did nail it. Like the first look so far.

  46. Isa says:

    That name is horrible! She is so pretty. But I don’t think she looks like them. Is this a case of two fugs make a pretty kid? Their faces always look so rough but the kid has a sweet and soft face. The hair is similar though.
    I’ve only watch the first movie and part of the second and I feel kind of bad for the twihards. That was the best they got? It’s like the makers of the film half assed it bc they knew it would make money anyway.
    Question- someone above said the baby rapidly aged. Does that mean she dies of old age by the end of the series?

  47. erika says:

    next month i heard that Twilight: Entering Late Morning Madness will be in theatres and next year:

    Twilight Entering Late Morning Menace To Vampire Society II.

    I’m not sure if they plan to make a movie out of this upcoming series (soon to hit bookstore shelves by Dec 2012) but they’re a collection of short stories by Stephanie Meyer, but I think they should:

    Twilight: Set The Alarm for 5.45AM
    Twilight: Lunch Break at Noon Legacy
    Twilight: Coffee/Cig Break Chaos
    Twilight: Chasing Dinner Time Travesty

    Should be good stuff! I hear Resemee joins little league baseball where of ALL people to be the coach…JACOB!!!

    • original almond says:

      You forgot Elevenses, Tea Time and Supper. Oh, and Midnight Snack (a retelling of the first book from the apple’s perspective).

  48. leslilly says:

    I’m not a Twilight fan at ALL; however, that child is perfect – looks just like a combo of the two of them.

  49. VanillaFrosting says:

    I don’t really get the anger over Twilight. I found it easy to avoid. I’ve not read any of the books or watched even a clip from one of the films. For no reason other than that I do not care to. I also generally dislike fiction and the last piece of fiction I was able to get through was Chuck Palahniuk’s “Haunted”.

    My husband who is 14 years older than me has seen all of the movies (besides the newest one?) and he read all of the books. I’m not ashamed, but I reserve my right to laugh at him. If we ever have a little girl I’m sure he’d be good with staying abreast of her girly interests.

  50. baron samedi says:

    woohoo! Can’t wait to not watch this movie

  51. Fred says:

    The little girl fit well with what Renesmee should look like. Absolutely horrid name though. I liked the books, but still think the series would have been a lot better if the end couple was Bella/Alice. And it would not take that many changes in the story to make this couple work. The Jake/Renesmee imprint is creepy,really, I mean he spent 3/4th of the books trying to get Bella into a romantic relationship with him. Bella even pictured for a moment being married and having kids with Jake, which would mean by Twilight logic, he would imprint on his own daughter. Good thing Jake failed in his wooing of Bella. Although the scene where Jake would imprint on his own daughter be funny to see, just to see the reacting of the everyone involved.
