She may be the sweet, smiling matriarch of the most beloved vampire family in the world, but that doesn’t mean Elizabeth Reaser can’t still be a badass.

With just a few weeks remaining before “New Moon” hits theaters, we caught up with the 34-year-old actress sometimes known as Mrs. Esme Cullen during her final days on the “Eclipse” set. During an exclusive chat with MTV News, Reaser was eager to talk about ripping apart mountain lions, asking for Robert Pattinson’sautograph, and why she thinks one of her co-stars should have played Esme instead.

MTV: What is the biggest difference, in your opinion, between the three “Twilight” books that are currently being filmed as the “Saga”?

Elizabeth Reaser: Oh, well, all three films are completely different. The first one is a vampire romance, a crazy love affair. There’s so much sexual tension and romantic tension, and nothing ever goes down; you’re going insane the whole time, and they’re falling in love, and it’s amazing. In the second one, obviously Bella is left behind, and her and Taylor [Lautner]’s character, Jacob, sort of fall in love — or do they? And she’s devastated, and she’s doing all of this risky stuff, and it’s really a heartbreaking movie. There’s all this danger going on in Italy, and Edward is thinking about killing himself — it’s very, very, very different from the first one. And the third one is a full-on action movie. “Eclipse” is just crazy action and danger and vampires — and newborn vampires that are the most dangerous, powerful vampires of all.
