帕丁森竟是吸血男爵的遠親!

"Tracing Pattinson's family back to Vlad was difficult research, but the pieces that unraveled created the perfect accompaniment to 'The Twilight Saga'," said Anastasia Tyler.

　　研究者Anastasia Tyler稱：“將帕丁森的家族追溯至弗拉德是一件非常困難的事情，但研究中發(fā)現的零星證據為《暮光之城》系列影片增添了完美的佐料。”

　　Pattinson plays love-sick vampire Edward Cullen in the smash hit film franchise based on the novels by Stephenie Meyer. The first two movies earned a combined $1.1 billion at world-wide box offices. The third film "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse" opens on June 30.

　　帕丁森所拍吸血鬼系列影片《暮光之城》為作家Stephenie Meyer的同名小說改編。前兩部影片《暮光之城》與《暮光之城2：新月》在全球共收獲了11億美元的票房。第三部《暮光之城3：月食》將于6月30日正式上映。

　　Family history experts said Pattinson and Vlad -- the Transylvania-born despot also known as Vlad the Impaler -- are likely related through today's British royal family.

　　家族史學專家稱，帕丁森與弗拉德間的親戚關系可能是通過當今英國王室建立起來的。

　　Pattinson, 24, is a distant cousin of Prince William and Prince Harry on their father's side, probably through the Pickering family who lived in northern England in the early 1500s.

　　24歲的帕丁森是英國威廉王子與哈里王子的遠方堂兄弟，可能是通過16世紀初期居住于英格蘭北部的Pickering家族建立聯(lián)系。
