The ‘Breaking Dawn’ naked sex scene between Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart has Elizabeth Reaser thinking about the franchise’s success.
Elizabeth Reaser who plays mom and grandma Esme Cullen on the ‘Twilight Saga’ says “At least everyone knows: OK, people are naked, just in case the frenzy was dying down, just in case no one cared, here’s a naked picture of Rob and Kristen.”
Elizabeth is savvy enough to realize that this type of publicity will maintain the hype and excitement surrounding the new film – which in turn will help her (and the whole Twilight crew) keep doing what they love most – making money, whoops we mean acting in big productions.
Elizabeth says she feels sorry for Rob and Kristen and all the media attention they receive, but she says it’s “a price you have to pay.”
Liz added: “It’s a complicated situation. If you’re going to be an actor and you don’t want to do dinner theater and you want to do movies like this, it’s a crazy risk.”
She continued “I know for me, you want people to watch you tell stories. There’s some part of you that is somewhat of an exhibitionist… I’m not saying you want people to chase you down the street screaming and attacking you, but it’s a price you have to pay, I think.”
Taking an optimistic approach Elizabeth had these words for fans “We have so far to go that it doesn’t feel like we’re anywhere near the end. Plus we’re going to promote these for a few more years, you know. So we’re nowhere near the end.”
Great to know that we can expect more and more of this wonderfully exciting entertainment for as long as fans keep up their spending.
