Personal history

Emmett McCarty was the youngest in a large family with Scottish and Irish ancestry. Rosalie has stated that she saved Emmett because his innocent appearance reminded her of her friend’s child, Henry.

Emmett took the news of becoming a vampire in stride, saying, “if Carlisle and Rosalie, my angel, were vampires, how bad could it be?”

Physical appearance

Emmett is described as being very tall, burly, and extremely muscular, and– to most humans– the most intimidating of his adoptive siblings. Standing at 6′5″, he is the tallest of the Cullens. He is described as having slightly curly, dark hair. Like the rest of the Cullens, he has pale skin and golden eyes that darken as he becomes more thirsty.

Romantic relationships

Rosalie Hale

Rosalie is Emmett’s wife and true love, and they’ve been in love ever since Rosalie saved Emmett’s life. They are officially married, and sometimes live away from their family as a married couple.

Personality and Traits

Bella describes Emmett as “a big, scary teddy bear.” He has a cheerful disposition and is described as having a “big, booming laugh”. He is also described as having the most physical strength out of all the Cullens, and he often enjoys this advantage. He jokes around a lot and is described as being “boyish and boisterous”, but he loves Rosalie, Bella and the Cullens with all his heart and is described as “the protector of the family”.

Movie portrayal

Kellan Lutz was cast to portray Emmett in the upcoming Twilight film.
