Gus Van Sant Backed by Pattinson for Breaking Dawn A seasoned director like Gus Van Sant should not be going on directorial auditions. Like he is the one who directed classics like My Own Private Idaho, Good Will Hunting and other award-winning films, there’s no question about his eye for a great film.

Bill Condon already snitched the Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart starrer Twilight: Breaking Dawn. However, Gus Van Sant revealed that Robert Pattinson coaxed him to go for an audition for the said directorial job. In the Cannes Film Festival, Gus revealed that he instantly got goose bumps doing the audition because he hasn’t been in one since more than 20 years ago!

Despite that, Twilight producers chose Condon above all the other directors who auditioned for the part. Everything is fine for Gus but Robert Pattinson was in dismay that his preferred director wasn’t chosen. Oh well, you can’t have it all, R-Pattz!

Meanwhile, there have been rumors and news from tabloids that Robert Pattinson felt a wee bit awkward shooting the bed scenes with Kristen Stewart for Breaking Dawn part 1. During the years that they have been working together, it seemed that the two have developed a really special bond, something that entails Robert to never want to hurt Kristen in any way.

That’s exactly why, according to the tabloids, Robert Pattinson freaked when the two were already doing the love scenes. The love scenes in the new movie were a bit more intense than the usual, as expected because it relates to the roles that the two actors portrayed. Robert Pattinson was afraid that he might hurt Kristen Stewart during the scene, and so he was allegedly asking for a body double to do the role.

In the book, Stephanie Meyer didn’t describe how the after wedding night went on, but it did say that Kristen Stewart was covered in bruises because of the strength of Edward Cullen, which was apparently too much for the frail Bella Swan. It needed some convincing from Kristen herself to let Robert Pattinson do the violent role.
