"And there are some complexities to that character. He really is tragic. He's a puppet for Victoria [Rachelle Lefevre's fiery vampire]. So he has to break your heart a little bit at the end when he realizes that she doesn't want him. Channing could do that beautifully," she adds.
Rosenberg wrote the screenplay for 'Twilight' and 'New Moon,' the latter of which is currently filming and expected in theaters this November.
