I love Charlie, Billy Burkes character. Writing for him is so spectacular, hes so funny and wry and every scene hes in he just takes. Theres a scene in Eclipse where Bella tells him shes a virgin, and its the funniest, most awkward scene Ive ever seen on film. – Melissa Rosenberg

With Twilight, you have these massive tomes that you have to condense. With Penoza, we had an eight episode Dutch series that, just for the pilot alone, I condensed three episodes.
