WHAT? This HUGE Actress Auditioned For Twilight

Could you imagine anyone other than Kristen Stewart playing Bella Swan in Twilight? Well, the iconic character could have been played by none other than award-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence.

While chatting on The Howard Stern Show on Wednesday, Jennifer reflected on her audition for the huge franchise.

“I didn’t really know what it was,” Lawrence admitted, noting that she had not anticipated how successful the franchise would become. “You just get like five pages [at the audition] and they’re like, ‘Act monkey.’ And when it came out I was like, ‘Hot damn. Whoa.’”

This isn’t the first time Jen has spoken about the audition, back in 2012 she told The Guardian “I remember when the movie first came out, seeing Kristen Stewart on the red carpet and getting papped wherever she went,” the actress said at the time. “I had no idea Twilight would be such a big deal. For me, and assuming for her, it was just another audition. Then it turned into this whole other thing.”

The Oscar winner has no hard feelings about losing out on the role, as she later got her major role in The Hunger Games. “I had such a solid indie career at that point so I was like, ‘This is perfect. I get to act and I’m not that famous’”.

Could you imagine watching J-Law and Robert Pattinson all loved up on screen?
