In an interview with Taylor Lautner, Josh Peck recalled auditioning for Edward Cullen in Twilight and was shocked at how far he made it in the process

Instead of launching the career of British actor Robert Pattinson as sparkly vampire Edward Cullen, the popular films almost starred Josh Peck in the leading role. On the Monday, October 23, episode of his podcast. “Good Guys,” Peck, 36, revealed that he auditioned for the part — and made it pretty far in the process.

“I remember it’s like 2006-7, they’re like, ‘Audition for this movie Twilight, it’s based on a book, it’s going to be great,’” he recalled. “I send in my tape … Edward. A month later, I’m with my manager, he goes, ‘It’s down to you and three guys. You’re close.’” “Spoiler alert, didn’t get it,” Peck continued jokingly. “But I remember, and then seeing R Patz playing this part, I’m like, in what f–king world were they like, they’re like, OK, here’s what we’re thinking. Chris Hemsworth or Stanley Tucci.’ Like, what the f–k?! Impossible!”

“For me, when I think of childhood, the singular, powerful, and all-consuming memory that comes to mind is being fat,' Peck recalled, adding that his 'first love,' food, helped him reach almost 300 pounds before he was a teenager. 'I have good memories from childhood too, of course, I grew up with a deep awareness that I was loved, decent, cared for, and blah blah blah, but FAT, very very fat.
