AceShowbiz - Starring alongside Robert Pattinson in hit vampire movie "Twilight", Nikki Reed shares to Access Hollywood's Maria Menounos some fun facts that people may not know about the British actor, praising him as "really talented, really smart, and really musical." "Quite frankly, I'm tired of being asked about Rob," she jokingly says, before then adding that Robert is "an intellectual".
"That's the side that I wish people would [ask about.] I don't know if anyone necessarily even knows him ...that side of him," Nikki tells Maria about Robert's reading habit. In line with Nikki, another "Twilight" cast member Rachelle Lefevre also sings praises for Robert, claiming his superstar status doesn't make him a big head on the set. "We got to know him in a different environment," Rachelle describes. "I don't feel any differently about Rob than I do about the rest of the cast."
Speaking about Taylor Lautner, who has worked hard to pile on pounds of new muscle in a bid to reprise his role as Jacob Black, Rachelle claims he is her favorite. "His commitment is unbelievable. He's such a man. He was so grounded, he had so much grace," she says of Taylor before then jokingly adds, "I already adopted him, back off!" Nikki chimes in, "I would've ran away ... I would've been terrified. He had to screen test again."
Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner, Nikki Reed, and Rachelle Lefevre will all reprise their roles in the upcoming "Twilight" sequel "The Twilight Saga's New Moon." The U.S. release date for the drama-romance-thriller flick is set for November 20 later this year.
