USA Today: Bill Condon talks Breaking Dawn: Edward & Jacob represent “rooting for the noble monster”

The undead men of True Blood, as well as vampire Edward Cullen and lovelorn werewolf Jacob Black in Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight book series, have become key heroes in pop culture, especially to women. Bill Condon, director of the final two Twilight movies, Breaking Dawn, Part I (out Nov. 18) and Part II (Nov. 16, 2012), sees Cullen and Black as part of a long tradition of rooting for the noble monster, dating to the original Frankenstein film in 1931.
“We’ve always had a complicated relationship toward monsters. Don’t you feel like in every Dracula movie, you’re sort of wanting him to get away with it?” Condon says, laughing.

USAToday Summit Entertainment is rolling out promotional cards for the movie Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn. Good thing it’s not the 1930s anymore. Otherwise, people might be coming with pitchforks and torches to meet Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), the vampire love interest of Bella in Twilight: Breaking Dawn. The heroic werewolf Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner) is not a big fan of vampires — especially Edward, who has won the heart of Jacob’s longtime crush, Bella.
