The Uninvited star Emily Browning is setting the story straight about her turning down the role of Bella Swan in Twilight.
The 20-year-old actress shared with MTV, “Maybe I should set it straight a little bit, because there are so many rumors flying around. People are coming up to me and saying, ‘Oh, my God. You turned [Twilight] down?’ and all this horrible stuff! What actually happened is that I was asked to audition ”” not take the part, but to just audition ”” shortly after The Uninvited had finished filming.”
Emily continued, “And I’m not the type of person who can just work back-to-back. So I was just exhausted, and I was like, ‘I’m sorry, but I just can’t sign on to a trilogy right now.’ I was exhausted, and I needed to come home and hang out with my family for a little bit. And I’m hoping people realize that now. I haven’t actually seen the film, but I’m sure Kristen [Stewart] did a billion times better job than I would’ve done.”
WHAT DO YOU THINK — would Emily make a better Bella than Kristen?
