Check it out on the BBC site. We can’t embed the audio here, but Stephenie covers 50 Shades of Grey and the time she was sued (and the suit dismissed by the judge as being without merit) when she was accused of plagiarizing an e-book.

You can snag it here.

In case you want backstory on previous lawsuits (one was an Internet Hoax and one was dismissed from court with prejudice by the judge) you can find all the linkage here.

How did you both end up getting involved in the Twilight series?

RM: Much like you get any other roles, with your agent giving you a ring. I remember them saying “Twilight” and I said, “Ummm not my cup of tea.” They said you should probably take this. I said OK and went in for the audition. When I got the job I remember getting really excited thinking it was cool. I wanted to be a part of something that was historic in a way. Now I’m really glad I did it. I met some great people working on the film and some good actors. The director, Bill Condon, I’m happy to have known him and worked with him. I look back and say I worked with an Oscar winning director and an Oscar winning DP as well. And the fans have been pretty phenomenal.

My fear would be messing up and facing rabid Twilight fans.

AG: They want to like it. Everyone just wants to see it flushed out and they might have their own idea of what they want it to be. The fans are very pro, they’re not anti.

No disrespect to Trekkies, but Star Trek fans can be a little crazy.

AG: That’s sci fi. In a way, being very left brained about things is part of the genre. I was on LOST and I started joining in with the fans like “Hey! That can’t happen’. Twilight fans are all heart. It’s all youth, and love, and angst. There are very few ways you can left brain it.

RM: Twilight fans are different. They’re very civil with one another. It’s a respect because they’re all in this together and they all appreciate the same things.

According to Variety,

Showing continued strength of the “Twilight” franchise, Lionsgate has sold an estimated 3.85 million DVD and Blu-ray units of its fifth and final “Twilight” film in its first weekend of release — an increase over the fourth film.

The studio said Blu-ray sales accounted for 27% of weekend sales of “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 2,” up from 22% of the first weekend sales of “Breaking Dawn — Part 1.”

Lionsgate also said the film recorded approximately 20% more electronic sell through transactions than “Breaking Dawn — Part 1,” which it called “early indications of a robust VOD performance as well.”

Lionsgate’s Ron Schwarts, exec VP and general manager of home entertainment, said in a statement: “Consumer demand for ‘The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 2? reflects strength in all segments of the home entertainment marketplace – packaged media, digital and on demand. This is further proof that author Stephenie Meyer has created a timeless classic that moviegoers want to enjoy over and over in a wide variety of formats.”
