Finally, we get a look at Bella and Edward's love child

The long-awaited official look at Renesmee is here, thanks to Entertainment Weekly.

The new issue, which hits the stands on Friday, June 15, features dual covers with the royal 'Twilight' family.  We see Bella, Edward, Renesmee, and Jacob -- not your average vampire, half-human/half-vampire child, and werewolf family.

From EW.com:

But that’s not to say it won’t pack a bunch of surprises—and several new characters. Chief among them is Renesmee, the half-human, half-vampire baby of Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Edward (Robert Pattinson), who is played by Mackenzie Foy, 11. “It’s a  hugely important part,” says director Bill Condon, who loved watching Foy and her older costars interact. “They were amazing with her,” he says. “It really  brought something paternal out in Rob, and Kristen was especially protective. I’d have to interrupt them when they were in deep  conversation to get going with a scene.” It helped that Stewart began her own acting career as a child, in movies such as The Safety of Objects and Panic Room. “I loved chatting  with Mackenzie,” she says. “I’m always curious about what’s  going on in the minds of kids on set. She’s really close to the age I was when I started.”

What does Robert Pattinson think about having a kid on set?

“We’re all around the same age and we’re really not polite to each other anymore,” he says. “You’d have to tone it down when Mackenzie was around.” Or at least  attempt to. “She had a little swear jar, and I think she made 850 bucks or something.”

Kudos to the casting agents for their find in Mackenzie Foy, who incredibly enough looks like her onscreen parents:
“Even our hands look similar,” Stewart says. “It  was kind of strange. But it’s funny how it actually helps. It’s like, ‘Oh, hey, you look like me, kid! Come on!’”

I don't know, this whole "imprinting" thing with Jacob and Renesmee still creeps me out a bit...
