Fun fact

He learned to play baseball for the Twilight vampire baseball scene, filmed on a diamond in Oregon rather than anywhere near the BC sets used for the rest of the franchise.

The verdict

Sparkled his way through a very Canadian forest for several Twilight films shot in and around Vancouver. Born in London, England, and raised there too — Edward Cullen may have haunted BC for years, but Pattinson himself never stuck around after wrap.
