Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart: More Praise

Continuing to be patted on the back, New Moon’s Michael Sheen is praising his costars, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.

Sheen says he is impressed with how Pattinson and Steward have coped with the quick rise to fame.

“I don’t know how he copes with it all,” said Mr Sheen. “I certainly wouldn’t have been able to deal with it when I was his age.

And even with all the crazy attention, he adds, “He and Kristen are really amazing. They’re fully committed to what they’re doing, and I wish them all the best.”

Sheen also gave the scoop on his own character in the movie. “I play Aro. For people who aren’t fans of the books, I play one of the Volture-somebody described it as being like the royal family of vampires, which I guess is a good description.”

So does Sheen play a good guy or the bad guy? “He’s very calming on the surface, very gentle and soft on the surface. But beneath, he is a psychopathic killer…He’s a great character, and I had a great time doing it.”
