It's hard to imagine The Twilight Saga's Robert Pattinson not portraying the coveted role of Edward Cullen—the not-so-young vampire who falls in love with a mere human. Pattinson wasn't the initial choice for Edward, but another cast member, Kellen Lutz, was. So, when that audition [for Edward Cullen] came and I read it, I just wasn't in that sort of mindset. Another Twilight actor was also up for EdwardLutz's co-star, Jackson Rathbone, shared his experience with Edward, as he was also one of the contenders for the role. However, it's interesting to hear his side of the story and how he felt about Pattinson playing Edward.
