Jackson Rathbone on ‘Breaking Dawn’: “They Gotta Consummate That Relationship”



Jackson Rathbone is excited for The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn for the same reason as many of his fellow Twi-hards! “There’s going to be sex in this movie,” Jackson said. “I can’t wait.”

Even though Jackson’s enjoyed working on other projects, such as his film The Last Airbender, the actor (who plays Jasper Cullen) is excited to get back to working on Twilight.

“I can’t wait, it’s always a reunion” Jackson told E! News. “I’m really looking forward to seeing Bella’s transformation, that’s one of the things that has been building up for a while.”

“I’m excited to see how Kristen Stewart really works with that,” he explained. “That’s going to be fun. She’s an incredible actress, and I know this is a pun, but she’s chomping at the bit in order to play that transition.”

But he’s also looking forward to the scene every Twi-hard has been waiting for!

“I think it’s going to have to be PG-13. I don’t know how they’re going to keep it PG. [Screenwriter] Melissa Rosenberg herself has told us there is going to be sex in this movie. I can’t wait,” Jackson shared. “It’s in the books and I mean they’re married, they gotta consummate that relationship.”

Let the feathers fly!

Jackson’s excitement does come with a bit of sadness, however, as this is the final film of the saga.

“It’s one of the sad aspects of Breaking Dawn being the last two chapters of the film series. It was always a family reunion — we all go out, we all have fun. It’s sad to see it go,” he explained. “[Twilight] has done so much for me, in terms of broadening my audience and my art form. Hell, I always wanted to play a vampire, it’s cool. It’s been really fun.”

“Honestly, I would do, like, Twilight Saga: Origins, Jasper’s back story,” he added. “I’ll sign up! I’d get to play an angry civil war vampire again.”

We’d watch that!
