In an interview with MTV News, Mackenzie opens up on having Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart as parents plus what it felt like being part of the "Twilight" cast.

"I don't see him as cute," said Foy on her thoughts about Robert Pattinson.

"Kristen [Stewart] is an amazing, sweet, wonderful actress, and I'm so lucky to be working with her," shared Foy.
