Pattinson's wig was no delight

Robert Pattinson has been talking about the trials of having to wear a wig for some scenes in the new Twilight film.

The English star, who reprises his role as sultry vampire Edward Cullen in the final instalment of the Twilight Saga, Breaking Dawn - Part 2, was not too impressed with the hairpiece.

"We had to do the re-shoots a few weeks ago, and it was the first time I had to wear a wig. I couldn't believe my last two days on Twilight they put this orange wig on my hair," he told People.com.

"It's like Frankenstein's monster and is an amalgamation of six wigs," he admitted.

Robert - who appeared at San Diego's Comic-Con alongside co-stars Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner - also joked about what he would say to his younger self if he got the chance to return to the first Twilight film.

"Don't succumb to peer pressure and start wearing a wig like everybody else in this cast," he quipped.
