The stars of Twilight revealed

100708_twilightbanner_th Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight series of books, about the forbidden Romeo & Juliet romance between a vampire boy and a wholesome young human girl, have a powerful cult following among(mainly) young, and young-at-heart American women.

Controversially, the most recent book in the series has ben spiked after an inadvertent internet leak led to an early manuscript being downloaded by thousands of eager Meyer fans who couldn't wait for the finished article.

The movie adaptation, has been far off the traditional critical radar that it's had very little press, and was missed off our list of the 50 biggest blockbuster movies of the year but is now expected to be one of the surprise movie hits of the winter.

The first sight of young lovers Edward and Bella is in the poster below : click for a super-sized version. I don't pretend to be part of the Twilight demographic. Do Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson look convincing? Let me know in the comments.
