Yahoo! news has a bit about the sequel. I am skipping the "unimportant i.e. non-Rob parts" :-))
Hit film Twilight sequel will be harder, say stars
LONDON (Reuters) – The surprise success of "Twilight," the teen vampire movie that boasted a bigger opening North American weekend box office than the new James Bond, could make the sequel harder to sell, its leading actors said.
The movie, based on the bestselling novel by U.S. author Stephenie Meyer, made $69.6 million in movie theatres over its first weekend last month, ahead of Bond film "Quantum of Solace" which cost over five times as much to make.
The success helped convince independent studio Summit Entertainment to go ahead with sequel "New Moon" based on the second book in the series, and the two lead actors from Twilight are down to reprise their roles.
"We had nothing to lose in the first one," said British actor Robert Pattinson, who has become a movie heartthrob virtually overnight for his portrayal of the immortal vampire Edward Cullen.
"It's harder to build up the hype, especially in America. I think it will be harder," he told a recent London briefing. The film opens in Britain on Friday.
Kristen Stewart plays Bella Swan, the teen girl who falls in love with Cullen only to see her relationship and family jeopardized by rival vampires' lust for blood.
Stewart said she expected the press to be "a little tougher" next time around, and had been surprised at how big the movie became in the United States.
Pattinson said he was struggling to get used to life as a major star. The 22-year-old, who played a smaller role in the Harry Potter movie franchise, has been faced with crowds of screaming girls whenever he hits the red carpets for Twilight.
"I don't know why, I'm not getting used to it," he said. "People are screaming. I'm completely overwhelmed by it every single time.
"I haven't changed that much. In my head I don't think I've changed that much. There are little weird things like people following you to your house -- that's a little strange."

I love the photo choices of Goz.
This just makes the article better.
Ellie, the English kissing ball thing was easy because I've had one hanging up on my front doorstep since last Christmas, I liked it so much I never took it down.
I didn't have to dig very deep.
That picture is hilarious, Goz! I've never seen it before, and Rob's expression seriously made me laugh out loud. I think he is in the process of getting some groin chaffage.
Thank you my ladies :)) We try :)) and yeah Lyla, I think he is probably starting to get pain in the groin there, nothing a foot rub won't fix :)
LOL! Yeah, I hear a foot rub can work wonders with a painful groin area... Kristen must have just been looking out for Rob's best interest :)
I'm glad I wasn't the only one, who notice how she rubbed her foot against his groin area. I thought it was just my imagination, since I wouldn't have mind doing it! LOL
Never saw that photo before...thanks, Gozde for sharing that with us, bloggers! = )
