Jackson Rathbone, a star of the “Twilight” movies, likened the wildly popular series about love between a human and a vampire to the story of Romeo and Juliet, as the next-to-last film in the saga was screened Sunday at Rome’s film festival.
Speaking to reporters about “The Twilight Saga – Breaking Dawn Part 1,” Rathbone called the love between Bella and Edward “almost as mythological as the Romeo and Juliet story,” referring to Shakespeare’s play about star-crossed lovers.
