Twilight star Robert Pattinson is reportedly in a place in his life where he might be ready to put the past behind him, which could easily include his former on-screen girlfriend Kristen Stewart.

Robert Pattinson Has An 'Optimistic View Of The World'

On Wednesday, Salon posted an interview with the actor, who talked about how Twilight became his main trademark. He revealed that his career seems to be taking a turning point, which gives some perspective on how that affects his personal life as well.

"I know that there's definitely some baggage, but I guess if it brings people into the cinema, which I'm not entirely sure if it does, then -- but I don't know," Pattinson said. "I think you end up fighting for all the parts you want anyway. I guess as I'm going further and further away from Twilight, the perception slowly becomes something else."

Were Kristen Stewart & Robert Pattinson In An 'Open Relationship?'

This gives some curiosity if the actor is finding different projects in his career that make him more of a versatile actor as opposed to just Edward Cullen. Considering that Stewart was an important part of his life then, he might be willing to move on from that part of his life as well.

Pattinson also dished on what it was like to film the Twilight movies, and how it differs from performing in other films.

"It feels like it was such a long time ago because we finished shooting ages ago, like two or three years ago," he said. "But yeah, it's interesting -- you're kind of like, 'Oh, this is actually what you're branching out doing now, this is what your career is and it's actually kind of looking like something.'"
