Breaking Dawn' Countdown: Why MacKenzie Foy Might Be Twilight's Next Big Star


The Twilight Saga made its fourth appearance at Comic-Con two weeks ago. Now that all the frenzied mayhem is over, who among the newcomers stood out with fans? There is one name that seems to keep coming up, and that is Mackenzie Foy, the adorable pre-teen who will play Bella and Edward’s daughter in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2. So what was it in a Hall H panel consisting of 10 other individuals that made her stand out?
One of the things about Foy is the fact that she does uncannily resemble both Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. In a franchise that is very concerned with character appearance, this was one hurdle met. In an interview last year, director Bill Condon spoke about the resemblances and being overjoyed that Foy both looked the part and had the acting chops as well. “Mackenzie Foy was like; wow that’s it [with her audition]. She looks like their daughter and there’s just a quality she had, you know. I mean and it was such a relief because Renesmee was so tough to picture and imagine, you know? So I have to say she was just like, I think we’ve got it right there, and then I showed her to everybody else and everybody agreed.” Fans also echoed Condon’s sentiment. Every time Foy spoke there were audible, adoring sighs from the crowd.
