Melissa Rosenberg on What to Expect when Bella's Expecting...


MTV took a break with Melissa at last week's Comic Con to ask about progress on Breaking Dawn:

"I've written and continue to rewrite it, working on it with Bill Condon ... I know what I want to see, which is, I want to see the terror of the experience. I want to have the experience of the fear and feel her pain. I want to feel everyone's pain in this."

Still, Rosenberg said that there are some of the gruesome elements of the scene — like Edward (Robert Pattinson) having to give Bella what has been dubbed a "vampire caesarian" — that she doesn't think need to be included in the scene.

"I want it to be visceral, so that is what's most important. Do I want to see teeth in placenta? No," she said. "Someone else may. I don't actually want to see that, but to each his own."
