E!On Line The thought of Robert Pattinson getting hurt is just too much too bear, isn't it?
But that's exactly what could have happened if anything had gone wrong during his and Daniel Cudmore's big, violent fight scene in New Moon.
Cudmore, the Tom Brady-esque hunkster who plays Volturi vampire Felix, said some of the stunts got a little too close for comfort when he and Pattinson went at it.
"Because of my contacts, my peripheral vision was off, so there were a couple of times where I thought I was going to really hit him," Cudmore recalled at the New Moon premiere in L.A. "Luckily, I didn't."
Maybe that's why Pattinson seemed a bit nervous when they first began working on the scene...
"Rob hasn't done a lot of stunt work, so he was kind of apprehensive about getting into it," Cudmore said. "But the very cool thing about it is he really started to enjoy and embrace it."
Christopher Heyerdahl, who plays Volturi badass Marcus, agrees.
"Rob was a real pro, and he was being chucked around like a rag doll," Heyerdahl said. "It was hair-raising, but fun to watch. We got to sit back in our fancy robes and just watch."
What more did we learn at the premiere earlier this week? Here are the highlights:
• Pattinson would jam with costar and fellow musician Jackson Rathbone in their hotel rooms. "We'd do 'Let It Shine,' " Rathbone said.
• Alex Mraz insists his wife doesn't mind all the attention he's getting for being one of the shirtless werewolf boys. "She's good," he said. "It could be worse. I could be doing porn
