Stephenie Meyer talks Breaking Dawn film adaptation and more

When the fansites had the opportunity to chat with Stephenie Meyer, one of the subjects they discussed was Breaking Dawn and the steamy scenes. Here is a bit of what Steph had to say about the film adaptation, and what we can expect from the Jacob chapters.

Q: So how do you see it playing out in your mind (the movie version of Breaking Dawn)?
SM: It’s interesting. I think it’ll be very like the book from Bella’s perspective. So it’ll be what SHE’S seeing of the scene and everything. Which is actually more like Forever Dawn, because we have Jacob’s perspective. (Note: Forever Dawn was Stephenie’s original sequel to Twilight, which skips ahead in Bella’s life, with more mature themes. Some of Forever Dawn became a loose outline for Breaking Dawn.) And I don’t think that the Jacob perspective will be nearly as pronounced in the movie. Yeah, it made me a little bit sad. I think we’re going to get some good moments. But they feel like they have to keep it Bella and Edward-centric…..so. I mean, I can see that.
[Meghan?]: He’s got some good stuff though. (“He” meaning Jacob)
SM: Yeah, he does. He has some good moments. It’s alright guys. (Stephenie soothes the anxious group over Breaking Dawn worries!)
