Is Amanda Seyfriend Annoyed By ‘Twilight’ Comparisons?
March 15, 2011
Amanda Seyfriend is the star of Catherine Hardwicke’s new fantasy film, ‘Red Riding Hood,’ and as many of you know, Catherine Hardwicke also directed the first Twilight movie. But that’s not the only thing Red Riding Hood and Twilight have in common: The ‘forbidden fruit’ storyline, Billy Burke (who plays Charlie Swan in the Twilight Saga), Shiloh Fernandez (who was almost cast to play Edward in Twilight), etc. What does Amanda Seyfriend think of people comparing the two films? Check out what she had to say in a new interview from Music Rooms:
“She’s [Kristen Stewart] uncomfortable with it, but also, it’s like, she’s only noticed for that and she’s been working for so long. There’s hype but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t just a little bit annoyed at the Twilight comparisons,” she told Marie Claire magazine.
The stunning star says she doesn’t worry about being in Kristen’s position. She hopes the film will rival the Twilight saga’s success, but if it does, it would be for “different” reasons.
“I don’t think that will happen to me. I don’t think about it. What if it doesn’t do well? Then I won’t have to deal with it,” she added when asked how she would handle Kristen’s level of fame. “If it does do well? It’s different from Twilight.”
