Article: Ashley Greene Mentions Rob Pattinson in Interview with Allure Magazine

Here’s an interview with Allure Magazine & Ashley Greene where she talks about her ‘second family‘ & her ‘awkward brother‘ Rob! LOL

* * *

The actress initially tried out for the role of Bella before being called back to audition for Alice, a character she related to immediately upon reading the books. ”Everyone asks, ‘Weren’t you jealous?’ No, I think that the casting was so spot-on, especially between Rob and Kristen,” Greene says. “Dude, I just got lucky in all fronts, because not only am I in Twilight, but the character’s just so damn lovable.”

Greene talks about the Twilight cast as if they were a second family, and about Pattinson as if he were an awkward brother. ” Rob. Oh, Rob. He’s very endearing, but you’ve seen his interviews. He’s like, ‘Ah, I don’t know… Oh, God,” Greene bumbles in imitation. Despite poking a little fun at him, she credits Pattinson (she calls him a ”phenomenal actor”) and the rest of the actors for helping her cope with sudden fame. ”All of us essentially were unknown. So everyone kind of went through this crazy whirlwind [together],’” Greene says. “It was really nice to be able to confide in people who were going through the exact same thing.” The vampires also bonded over a mutual dislike for the makeup and the yellow contacts, which cut off their peripheral vision.

HAAIIIRRRR! 😉

 

I’m just going out on a limb here since I sadly don’t speak or read French that they’re talking about all of the celebrities recent hairstyle changes– including Rob‘s half-mohawk which he recently debuted at Comic-Con 2011. Wow….

Interview: Juliette Binoche Talks About Rob Pattinson, Cosmopolis

Robert Pattinson’s Cosmopolis co-star, Juliette Binoche talks to French newspaper La Provence.

Juliette Binoche

For David Cronenberg’s new movie ?
J.B:  “Yes, it is called “Cosmopolis”. I play an art dealer who has an affair with Robert Pattinson.  He plays a billionaire who loses everything.”

Robert Pattinson evolves in a sphere that seems far away from yours…
J.B:  “I don’t have a point of view about his career, I didn’t see the “Twilight” movies.  We had dinner together on set.  He is an incredible cinema buff who for several years saw two to three movies a day. He is a fan of “Les amants du Pont Neuf” (The Pont Neuf lovers). He was funny, you would have thought he was a little child.”

Article with Scans & Translation: Dark Magazine interviews Robert Pattinson about ‘Water for Elephants’

Here’s an interview that Rob did with Dark Magazine regarding working on the set of Water for Elephants and what he learned from working with animals!

 

Translation:

Robert Pattinson: “I feel better working with animals than with people.”

When you are a young actor, handsome and you are so famous thanks to Twilight, you might be trapped forever in this out-breaking role.  But Robert’s talent is linked to his ability to keep on working on sets and playing characters completely different from Edward Cullen.  After the drama Remember Me, it’s in another love story we can see him with Academy Awards winners Reese Witherspoon (Walk the Line) and Christoph Waltz (Inglorious Basterds).  For Dark Magazine, he talks about his unusual experience while playing Jacob, a young man who must drop his veterinary studies after a family tragedy, and he decides to change his way of life joining a circus.  He will fall for a young woman, Marlena, and more surprisingly for an elephant: Rosie.  This story is set in the 1930s in America.  In theaters on May 4th.

Hi, Robert, can you talk about Jacob?  Who is he?  How will he join a circus?

Jacob is a veterinary student in Cornell University, he’s about to take his final exam when his parents die in a car accident.  His whole world collapses in a few months.  He jumps on board an old train to start from scratch and try to find a job somewhere, then he discovers it’s a circus train.  He sees Marlena the very first day and these are the 2 main reasons he wants to stay and be part of this circus life.  He gradually manages to accept his new life and falls for Marlena.  And he also manages to blow everything out!  (laughs).

How would you describe him?

Jacob doesn’t know anything about the circus.  At the beginning, he is self-conscious; he knows how idealistic he is.  But he soon realizes this universe, that he discovers in the middle of a huge economical crisis, seems to destroy the slightest spark of hope within himself.  He also gets acquainted with August, a very violent man.  Actually, Jacob goes through several trials of life, he faces a lot of difficulties throughout the story, and in the end, he realizes that he kept his idealistism, no matter what.  I think this is what moves Marlena and encourages her to follow him.  August is such a practical man.  He thinks he must appear as a cold and harsh man to the others otherwise his world will collapse.  But Jacob sees things quite differently.  His way of life is so far from August’s.

Article: Robert Pattinson talks about ‘Water for Elephants’ & how “It was a no-brainer”

Robert Pattinson was recently interviewed by BoxOfficeMagazine.com regarding Water for Elephants:

You’re incredibly busy. What is it about Water for Elephants that made you decide this was the film you wanted to do next?

When I first met Francis, we met at the elephant sanctuary where Tai the elephant lived. I got along with him really, really well in the car. We arrived at this place, met the elephant and he was showing us all the tricks that it was going to do in the movie—it was such an incredible day and just the environment of being around elephants was the first major thing. I loved the idea of working on such a peaceful set because just being around them is incredibly peaceful. Also, having done so many stressful things over the previous year, when I read the script and the book and loved them both, it just felt like I could add something to it. Then it had Reese and Christoph on it and I felt like you can’t really get a better cast, and that was about it. I thought it was kind of a no-brainer, really.

It’s interesting to hear you talk about the animals because one scene that stands out is the first time you walk through and meet all the animals by yourself. You just seemed so comfortable in that circus environment.

There was something about where we were shooting and just the wildness the story created—there’s something kind of magical about it. We were shooting out in the middle of the desert and everything was in this authentic ’30s circus tent and there was hardly any kind of modern day film equipment anywhere. You could really believe that you’re in the ’30s. There was just something about the way the light comes through the tent. There’s this real mystic quality and then there’s extremely hot, tired animals, exotic animals in these period cages. There is something incredibly beautiful and strange when you see a hyena and tigers and zebras and they’re all in the same room together all passed out sleeping—and a baby giraffe at the end. One thing about that scene specifically, the baby giraffe was completely clueless to the fact that there’s the tiger in one cage and lion in the other cage directly opposite it. They’re both staring at the giraffe during the scene and I was just trying to make the giraffe not realize what was happening and keep him looking in one direction.

That sounds like a metaphor for something, although I’m not exactly sure what.

It’s funny because the giraffe wasn’t born in the wild or anything so it had no idea of the threats posed about four feet away from him. I mean, everyone always talks about, “Never work with children and never work with animals,” but I just found that it’s always been a part of me. I enjoy working with children and animals more than adults the majority of the time because they’re a constant source of inspiration because they’re just doing their own thing. They don’t know they’re in a movie.

They’re the ultimate method actors.

They’re really, really, into their characters. [Laughs]

As a kid, did you want to run away with the circus?

Not really. I only went to the circus once when I was about six or something. The clowns were in this little car and the car door blew off and my sister told me that the clown had died, which is completely untrue but I thought it was true up until a year ago. I think that was one of the things that set me off from ever going to the circus again. It’s funny because so many people always think the circus is creepy and then you watch Water for Elephants and it doesn’t seem even like a circus, really. Some people have asked me, “Is it scary? Are there freaky clowns?” No. Why is that the first thing that comes to your head when you think about a circus? That is just very strange.

So many people are afraid of clowns. What happened to them when they were kids?

I know. It’s so weird. Maybe in my generation, most people want to be miserable all the time so they’re scared of someone trying to make them laugh. One of my favorite movies was It when I was younger. I kind of always liked the idea of a psycho clown.

I think I actually do blame ‘It’ for a lot of that. I remember watching that when I was really young and just being terrified—especially of spiders, too.

I watched it again recently and it’s really not very scary. I was terrified of it when I was younger for years.

My parents let me read that book when I was ten. I don’t know what they were thinking. I wanted to ask you, this film has such an American feel to it. Since you’re from London, I was wondering what you drew on to give it this great ’30s frontier spirit?

I think it’s always been my favorite period of America. Whenever I’m driving through the countryside in America and just see flat land going for ages and ages and tiny little towns with their little gas station and stuff. That’s what my idea of America is. I never think about New York or any of the cities. That’s what it seems to me. That period, that’s the end of the Wild West. That energy I find really attractive. I like the idea of romanticizing America because England in the ’30s, there’s nothing I particularly want to romanticize. There’s something about America at that point in time that seems very symbolic of hope for some reason. As soon as I saw the way Jack Fisk the production designer created the sets, and also just the days and the times of the day we chose to shoot on-we were always shooting in magic hour-it just felt incredibly American all the time and I really liked it. I don’t know if you could make a modern movie feel the same. I don’t what you do to make something seem really American if it was modern day. Before the ’40s, people are essentially still cowboys and that’s what Americans are to me. And then it became all white picket fences and something totally different. But the ’30s are cool.

Scans with Translation: Style Magazine (Italy): Robert Pattinson talks about ‘Water for Elephants’

Ooo… Ahh…

Every time I see a new photo regarding this upcoming movie, my heart soars!  *swoons*  Seriously, April 22nd couldn’t get here fast enough!!

 

Translation:

The real prototype of these generational mutations is Rob Pattinson: 24 years old, an Englishman in Hollywood, where he became famous worldwide playing the pale vampire Edward Cullen (and, even before, Cedric Diggory, a model student at Hogwarts in the Harry Potter series). He jokingly admits to be “nothing special, one of those who live in hotels and travel the world”. However, he created a new masculine identity, surprising even for the Facebook sub-culture who’s made him a star via the social network. Today is the eve of an important test for him: his new movie, WFE: he’s the protagonist of a melodramatic film, set in a circus, from the bestselling book by Sara Gruen. […]

Having been labelled as a teen idol, you’re now being tested as a true actor.
I had this chance to act with Cristoph Waltz and I fall in love with Marlena (Reese), his wife. Travelling with the circus, I visit areas of America far from Hollywood. There are dark secrets in this movie, as in life. And there’s this idea of life-saving love, which I believe in. I’m not cheesy, but I have a romantic soul.

New Photos: Outtakes of Robert Pattinson, Reese Witherspoon & Tai the Elephant for Entertainment Weekly

I…. *drools*.. umm.. yeah…..

What beautiful pictures!  These are the outtakes released from Entertainment Weekly which currently has Rob & Reese on the cover.  Lucky cover… just saying LOL

 

Quotes from EW

”[Water for Elephants] makes you think about opportunities and missed opportunities and how important it is to live a full life.” —Reese Witherspoon

”That was the other thing about Water for Elephants. There was something about the posture of the ’30s, something that I felt my body could fit into — it was quite languid, which I find easier. I think modern-day things generally, I don’t understand. I can watch actors move and there’s something, there’s some kind of snappy thing to it and I don’t… I’m not snappy. There is a lack of snappiness.” —Robert Pattinson

”There’s something about her. She’s just this genuinely nice person. I don’t know if she puts an effort into creating a nice aura, but her mood dissipates over the whole set. It was a completely different environment from when she wasn’t there. All the kids and the animals were just drawn to her.” —Pattinson talking about Witherspoon

”He’s dedicated. And he loves what he does. It’s amazing, he got such an incredible opportunity so young and he intends to use every bit of it to make creative choices from here on out.” —Witherspoon talking about Pattinson

”Well, it’s a boy thing, right? To have dirty fingernails and dirty hair, and his clothes were dirty all the time. It was a nice escape for him to be tan and in the sun all the time instead of the vampire gear.” —Witherspoon talking about Pattinson

Pattinson Online joins forces with publisher to bring Fan Edition of Bel Ami

Mon Cheri, Bel Ami!


With the excitement of Rob’s upcoming movie Bel Ami anxiously around the corner [rumored:  December 2010], fans are happily reading the movie-inspired short story to get a taste of what they can expect on the silver screen.

A few months ago, popular fan site Pattinson Online was approached for a special opportunity to release a fan-edition of Bel Ami.  To add a special touch to the book itself, besides actual on-set photos, they took that chance to ask their readers to submit fan-art which will actually be featured in the book.  And now, the excitement continues as their publishing date is just around the corner!

Bel Ami is a contagious read because it is written in a manner that both the casual reader and the avid reader can appreciate. We believe our version of the novel will encourage more of Rob’s fans to read the book and build anticipation for the film. While our version focuses on branding the character of Georges Duroy, our ultimate desire is to encourage Rob’s fans to support him in all of his current and future film roles, something we believe distinguishes this project from the fan material currently on the market. In working together, Pattinson Online and Fandemonium have delivered what we feel is an engaging book that respects a classic work.

If you haven’t read this story yet, you definitely should!  I personally can’t wait to see the movie and how the scenes play out.  If you have already read this story, have it on your bookshelf, you’ll want this Fan Site Edition if you’re a true Rob fan!

You can stay up to date on all things Rob & Bel Ami at Pattinson Online!
