The 25-year-old star plays the role of vampire Edward Cullen in the movie series and said he's excited about working on new projects.
He said to UK's Marie Claire magazine: 'If you're just an empty shell with your face stuck on everything, then there's only so long the hysteria can last. It's time to move on.'
The actor is not a fan of being in the public eye and he admitted he finds the attention difficult sometimes.
He said: 'I don't like people taking my photo - ever. If there's anything that stresses me out it's people following me around.'
