Edward Cullen, played by Robert Pattinson, finds himself fighting his attraction to Bella Swan, the new girl in school. Edward retains the traditional mindset and speech patterns of the early-20th century, when he became a vampire. He is described as inhumanly beautiful and, like other vampires, he possesses superhuman strength, speed, and agility.
