Why We Can’t Wait: As fans of Robert Pattinson’s brooding Twilight vampire, we’re looking forward to seeing him take on a very different role in this 1930s period piece, which is based on a bestselling novel. Pattinson plays a veterinarian who falls in love with a circus starlet (Reese Witherspoon), whose husband is a charismatic but abusive animal trainer. Actually, now that we think about it, there’s a love triangle and a bunch of dangerous animals… maybe it’s not so different from Twilight after all!

Why We Can’t Wait: The first three Twilight films chronicled the chaste, romantic longing between vampire Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) and human Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart). Finally, in Breaking Dawn - Part 1, we’ll get to see the wedding – and, more importantly, the honeymoon! In this penultimate film, Edward whisks Bella off to the tropics for some immortal loving, until their lives are turned upside-down by a seemingly impossible pregnancy. We’re anxiously awaiting the infamous birth scene, as well as our first glimpse of vampire Bella – but we realize they have to save some surprises for next year’s Part 2!
