New Kristen Interview with On the Red Carpet from SWATH UK Press junket

Part 1 and 2 interviews with transcripts under the cut.

“She encompasses all of those things that we know her to be,” Stewart told OnTheRedCarpet.com regarding her character. “She’s got the connection to the Earth and the animals and she’s very selfless and compassionate.

No one’s purely selfless,” she added. “So it was about putting her in a real world and like, challenging her to be those things in a really dangerous environment.”
