Even though he is known for his biographical roles, such as Tony Blair or David Frost, Michael Sheen has also taken on some supernatural roles in the Underworld series. But now he’s the ever frightening Aro in The Twilight Saga: New Moon and he talks about it with USA Today.
After he read the first two books himself, Sheen realized why the literary phenom causes teen girls to swoon. “What it has tapped into, at least in the first book, is how it feels to fall in love for the first time. I don’t think you have to be a girl to relate to that.
“The second book captures the utter desolation of losing that first love. I went through that myself, and Stephenie Meyer invokes that brilliantly.”
