Robert Pattinson Wants Betty White as Renesmee in Breaking Dawn
By Krystal Clark
Update: Don’t forget to check out our interviews with Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, and screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg.
Everyone wants a piece of Betty White — even Robert Pattinson. The veteran comedienne is old enough to be the Twilight star’s grandmother but he wants her to play his daughter in the next sequel. [Spoiler] In Breaking Dawn his character Edward has a kid with Bella and they name her Renesmee and Pattinson thinks it would be cool if White got all Benjamin Button with the role.
While on the red carpet at the film’s Los Angeles premiere, Pattinson discussed his desire to work with White and said the writers should try to fit her into Breaking Dawn.
“I love Betty,” he gushed. “I would love for them to do what they did in ‘[The Curious Case of] Benjamin Button’ with her and she can be Renesmee. I would change some scenes up so we could have Jacob and Emmet going for her. I want to work with her. That would be so much fun.”
Twilight creator Stephenie Meyer stated that White could make an appearance as just another vampire because there are so many in the series already.
“We have so many vampires in ‘Breaking Dawn’, surely she can fit in somewhere. Wouldn’t it be amazing if she was like just sitting there with a big group of the Volturi? That would be amazing.”
Something tells us that White would outshine everyone involved if she starred in the movie. She’s just that damn good!
Do you think they can fit Betty White into Twilight?

That would be awesome to have her in the movie. Being Renesmee is a bit much, but one of the Vampires. Even if I didn't like the Twilight Series, I'd go see the movie just for that!

i dont think that is a good idea. They would just ruin the whole book by putting betty white in the movie as Renesmee. Renesmee is supposed to be young, active, and just shockingly beautiful. If you do this, it will ruin a lot of reader's imagination and experience towards renesmee.

No. No. No. She was just awful in Saturday Night Live – let the old lady retire. Golden Girls was good in it's day with THAT cast. Let sleeping old dogs lie is what I say.

This is a horrible idea. One, they'd be copying another movie, and two, it wouldn't follow the book. The Twilight Saga movies leave out good, important details, and Kristen Stewart cannot act to save her life. I love Betty White, she's a precious lady, but seriously, Robert? How stupid are you? This just proves that the movies are crap compared to the books. I really hope they don't decide to go through with this. I'm already disappointed with how Breaking Dawn will turn out.

I don't think people got the idea that this was a joke. lol

Oh come on guys, have some common sense. Robert was not serious when he said that about her playing Renesmme.. He is just a fan of hers..

why the hell not! one, the cast wasn't cast to meet the book ideals; two, she'd upstage the rest of the horrible acting of the cast.
