Anna Kendrick: She found filming "Twilight" so bad

Anna Kendrick (34) celebrated her international breakthrough as an actress in 2008 with her role as Jessica Stanley in the "Twilight" saga. Twelve years later, she remembers the shooting of the first film with mixed feelings. In an interview with "Vanity Fair" she says that "she wanted to kill everyone".

She felt so uncomfortable while filming

"I only remember that it was cold and I felt miserable." The weather in Portland, Oregon, played badly on the crew. Her shoes were completely soaked, says Kendrick. She describes the experience as traumatizing. "I thought: 'You are definitely a great group of people and at another time we would be friends, but at the moment I just want to kill everyone.'"

Kendrick even reaches for a dramatic comparison, which she says with a wink: "Somehow it also welded us together, as if through a trauma. For example, if you think of people who survive a hostage-taking, there is also a connection for that whole life." When filming the second part, which was released in 2009, the weather was "not quite as intense", "and we all got to know each other a little better," says the actress forgivingly.
