LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

With “New Moon” hitting theaters in less than a full moon cycle, fans are dying to know if stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart will be able to recapture the chemistry they first had in “Twilight.”

“There’s a natural chemistry going on with Kristen. Even doing this sequel, it’s so easy,” Robert recently told TotalFilm.com. “I was really worried that I wouldn’t know how to do it again, but it’s so easy to play off her.”

Robert said that Kristen thinks she’s responsible for making him Hollywood’s hottest vampire.

“She always says that she pretty much got me the part,” he told the mag. “Though I don’t really believe her!”

The 23-year-old actor’s fame is due to “The Twilight Saga’s” rabid fan base, which Robert said is unrelenting.

“I don’t even think ‘devoted’ is the right word. They’re fanatical,” he said of the fans. “But you just learn to deal with it. There’s no point in being negative. If you keep going, ‘I hate this, I hate this,’ you can’t stop it. I was always trying to hide at the beginning of the year, but I have nothing to hide anyway!”

Robert and Taylor Lautner (Jacob Black) might have all the fans screaming for more, but when it comes to Kellan Lutz’s (Emmett Cullen) “Twilight” favorite – he prefers a cast member who gets to show off his comedic skills.

“My favorite scene is probably anything that Charlie is in, played by Billy Burke. He just has this great comedic timing, and every scene [with him], I get a laugh out of,” Kellan told MTV News, adding that there’s also loads of action in “New Moon.”

“There’s just tons of action. That’s the thing too, seeing the wolves actually fight each other and roughhouse. It’s really interesting to see what [director] Chris [Weitz] did.”

“The Twilight Saga: New Moon” hits theaters on November 20.
