It’s hard to believe that before Twilight took over the world in 2008, Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner and Ashley Greene were virtually unknown actors.
The Breaking Dawn stars, who are now international celebrities, have come a long way in three short years, growing up and evolving in the public eye. In honor of the release of the next-to-last installment of the popular film franchise, Breaking Celebrity News has photos of all the stars, highlighting their Twilight journey.
Kristen Stewart was a tomboy when she scored the coveted lead role of Bella Swan! The child actress, whose big break came in 2002 when she landed the role of Jodie Foster’s daughter in Panic Room, preferred her jeans and t-shirts to glam gowns and designer dresses – but it didn’t take long for K-Stew to transform into a style icon!
And Robert Pattinson was best known for portraying Cedric Diggory in the Harry Potter franchise when he landed the lead in Twilight. Playing Edward Cullen, the vampire love interest of Bella Swan, it didn’t take long for the Brit hunk to charm his leading lady in real life – resulting in one of the most talked-about co-star love stories in history.
