Breaking Dawn Part 2’s wild child Renesmee

Breaking Dawn Part 2

Entertainment Weekly has the first look at Breaking Dawn 2, the final installment in the sadly unsinkable juggernaut that is the Twilight series. And what better way to end the series than with a baby daughter with the single worst name ever and the adult werewolf that is in romantic love with her? (Yes, continue telling me how this series promotes healthy relationships, I’m all ears!)

It’s the beginning of the end. When The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 hits theaters on November 16th, it will mark final installment in the blockbuster franchise. But that’s not to say it won’t pack a bunch of surprises—and several new characters. Chief among them is Renesmee, the half-human, half-vampire baby of Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Edward (Robert Pattinson), who is played by Mackenzie Foy, 11. “It’s a hugely important part,” says director Bill Condon, who loved watching Foy and her older costars interact. “They were amazing with her,” he says. “It really brought something paternal out in Rob, and Kristen was especially protective. I’d have to interrupt them when they were in deep conversation to get going with a scene.” It helped that Stewart began her own acting career as a child, in movies such as The Safety of Objects and Panic Room. “I loved chatting with Mackenzie,” she says. “I’m always curious about what’s going on in the minds of kids on set. She’s really close to the age I was when I started.”
