TWILIGHT star Kristen Stewart is living an Aussie fairytale on the set of her new film, Snow White and the Huntsman.
The 21-year-old, whose mother is an Australian, originally from Queensland, feels very at home with co-star Chris Hemsworth.
"I feel so incredibly comfortable around him. There is a very particular Aussie mentality and he has got it. He epitomises it,'' Stewart told The Daily Telegraph.
"He's really smart and he's very impassioned, but he's also really funny and light and kinda loud.
"His accent is funny. I can't do it, I'm always trying to mimic him but I cannot do it!''
Snow White and the Huntsmana is a Lord of the Rings-style epic reimagining of the classic fairytale, in which Stewart's Snow White is a warrior princess on a mission to take down the Evil Queen Ravena (Charlize Theron), with the help of Hemsworth's Huntsman.
It is currently shooting in England and will be released in June 2012.
"I have an English accent in the film, that's much easier for me for some reason. That Australian thing is tough,'' Stewart said.
Snow White could be another blockbuster franchise for Stewart. Her role as a human, Bella, torn between a vampire and a werewolf has helped the Twilight films gross $1.8 billion worldwide so far.
The second-last film in the series, Breaking Dawn Part 1, opens with midnight screenings tonight.
Village Cinemas (with screens in Victoria, NSW and Tasmania) expect thousands to stay up late for tonight's screenings.
"Village Cinemas will be screening 65 midnight sessions to approximately 10,000 adoring a Twilight fans across 24 locations,'' said Gino Munari, Village's General Manager Film Buying.
He added that tickets to more than 2100 sessions of the film would be on sale from tomorrow - "where we expect a quarter of a million fans''.
The previous Twilight film, Eclipse, grossed just under $13 million on its opening weekend.
In Breaking Dawn Part 1 Bella marries vampire Edward (Robert Pattinson) and falls pregnant. An early review from the US magazine Variety said it was "disappointing ... that a story so pregnant with dramatic possibilities should wind up feeling like such an unconsummated opportunity''.
