Filming the first Twilight movie wasn’t exactly a dream come true for Anna Kendrick.
While discussing her film career in an interview with Vanity Fair, the actress revealed being on set of the first film of the beloved teen fantasy franchise was like a traumatic “bonding event” for the cast due to the rainy weather in Oregon where the flick was shot.
She told the outlet:
“The first movie we filmed in Portland, Oregon, and I just remember being so cold and miserable. And I just remember my Converse being completely soaked through and feeling like, ‘You know, this is a really great group of people and I’m sure that we would be friends at a different time, but I want to murder everyone.’”
Everyone? Even Robert Pattinson!?
The actress went on to liken the experience to “people who survive a hostage situation,” explaining:
“Although, it was also kind of bonding. There was something about it, like if you go through some trauma event. Like you imagine people who survive a hostage situation, and you’re kind of bonded for life.”
Wet shoes really are the worst, we guess!
Thankfully, filming the rest of the Twilight movies weren’t as traumatic for Anna, who played Jessica Stanley, the best friend to Kristen Stewart‘s character Bella Swan.
She said of the second film, New Moon:
“The second movie, for whatever reason the weather wasn’t quite as intense and I think that’s sort of where we all got to know each other a little bit better… sort of blended into one at some point, because my whole job was to just go, like, ‘This family of very pale people who we never see eating. They’re really weird, right?’”
The Oscar nominee admitted she was very excited when she and the rest of the cast filmed their final scene in the last Twilight film, Breaking Dawn Part 2 — even though she only filmed a fraction of the scenes her co-stars had shot over the years.
She remembered of filming the finale:
“You’re in like half-frozen mud in what was the final scene of filming for everybody. I get to come in and work for a week or two and everybody else has been giving their blood, sweat and tears to the project for months. I show up at the end and I’m like ‘Guys, we did it! Its over!’”
Ha!
