Nikki Reed Hates Kristen Stewart

Not really.

But, the two real-life best friends don't exactly see eye to eye in New Moon; Nicole said, "Rosalie feels really strongly about her hatred for Bella. It's bizarre. Obviously, we can do it because it is acting. But it is really funny."

Nikki returned to the set in Vancouver this week to begin filming New Moon.

It's not all fake hostility, though. The two up and coming actresses just returned from a vacation to Africa and plan to return and film K-11 together between New Moon and Eclipse.

"Kristen's my best friend," Nikki said. "I get to work on a set with really wonderful people and really creative people, and there are a million people in the world that have read this series and love the series. I get to be with my best friend. I can't think of anything better."

Sadly, though, Reed will not be reunited with Thirteen and Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke (two films in which Reed starred).

However, Miss Reed is not too distraught: "There is no better guy [than Weitz] for this film," she said. "And I'm sure I'll work with Catherine in the future."

"[Twilight] was such a unique experience, because we had such a large cast and we didn't really know if we were going to make sequels — we weren't expecting the kind of success that the film had. But we've all remained really good friends."

"As an actor, you always feel heartbroken when you leave a project, because it is this really unhealthy tug-of-war. You get really close, and then you get separated and most likely you'll never see your cast members again unless it's at an event years down the road. And [then] it's like, 'Hey, how are you?,' and there's a big hug. But you have this nomadic [quality to life]; you're never really in the same place, so it's hard to bond.

"We've all bonded. We're excited to see each other again."

Of course, New Moon is going to be darker than Twilight. But don't think that because of that it's going to lose any of its humanity. Nicole was quick to remind us that her character's tumultuous relationship with Bella stays the same.

"Obviously, Rosalie hates her in [New Moon]," Nikki said with a smile. "Hopefully, we don't laugh too much while we are making it."
