Why didn't you think Twilight would be a hit Rob?

Everyone's favourite vampire has always said "We never expected a massive success out of the film" So when French magazine Jetset asked him why. We all wanted to know...

Rob told the magazine: "When I did Twilight, I didn't expect that success. First because it was directed by Catherine Hardwicke who comes from the independent cinema industry. And then because Kristen Stewart was Cast as Bella. She had only done independant films" He English heart throb continued.

"I thought it'd be a simple love story with Vampires and that maybe it'd become a strange remembered film. Obviously it became a huge phenomenon which no one could have predicted"

But why do you think it was such a huge phenomenon? And do you think Rob's statements are true, I mean after all, I'd never heard of Kristen or Catherine until Twilight was out.
