From awkward wigs to painful contact lenses and costumes that didn’t quite suit the weather, the cast members of the Twilight film saga endured quite the experiences while filming!

Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner were definitely some of the actors who had it the worst. Stewart dealt with awkward leg prosthetics that forced her to keep her real legs still, sweating under a prop table! The Bella actress’ pregnancy prosthetics were no walk in the park either - it took over three hours just to attach all the prosthetics to her face! Pattinson’s vampire look as Edward Cullen required extremely uncomfortable coloured contact lenses and two unfortunate hair piece incidents. When initially filming Twilight, the actor had hair extensions that drove him so crazy, he ripped them right out of his head! The other wig he had he nicknamed “Frankenstein Wig.” Pattinson didn’t have it as bad as actress Nikki Reid - her hair actually started falling out as a result of extremely damaging hair dye done for the role. Both Stewart and Pattinson had to deal with terrible contact lenses. PAttinson claimed he couldn’t see anything and constantly felt like he had sand in his eyes, while Stewart said she couldn’t see while wearing them and couldn’t wait to never have to wear them again. Taylor Lautner’s long black wig wasn’t just hated by the actor, but by the majority of the creative team as well. The wig was itchy, hot and annoying for the actor and a total nuisance for the crew since the hair proved so unruly, it often blew around and got caught awkwardly in the actors face. In one shot, it resulted in Lautner spitting hair out of his mouth right before going in to kiss Bella. We’re covering all these experiences and more!

    I loved how Bella’s hair looked after she became a vampire
  • @Nocheesepls
    Bella’s malnourishment during her entire pregnancy literally scared me because of how realistic it looked to the point that I just had to look up and make sure they weren’t actually requiring her to starve herself for the role
  • @miramigue1091
    It's almost a decade since this movie was released and it's still the best movie eveeeeeeeeeeer! for meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
  • @Jenifer_R_
    Going from brunette to blonde without damaging the hair is a gradual process that takes weeks. 36 hours? No wonder her hair started falling out!
  • @morganprice2834
    Honestly shame on the costume department for not finding better alternatives. Or at least better people to put the extensions in, like...
  • @lordvenjix3757
    Painful Costumes and Prosthetics make movie scenes look amazing 👌
  • Well it's a good thing they get paid millions of dollars to compensate for that "pain"...
  • @urgay1234
    I feel bad for the actors, but the film got a love because of those prosthetics it was worth it.
  • @skyjeanne7232
    The most awkward one is renesmee baby appeareance 🤣🤣🤣🤣
  • @lordvenjix3757
    The actors chosen for The Twilight Saga were excellent. A couple of them became big stars as a result of the series' success.

    We can only wonder what the franchise would have been like had different performers landed those roles.
  • @nehadesai2549
    Pain and gain go hand in hand! The entire series turned out to be a huge success ❤
  • They thought the practical effects on Jake and Bella weren't convincing but felt the cgi baby was 💀🤣
  • @robinlight
