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.

Robert Pattinson’s Interview with Glamour UK

Here’s a new interview from UK’s Glamour Magazine – in this one, Rob talks about his role in Remember Me versus Twilight and being able to go back home:

Q: What made you say yes to Remem­ber Me; you are in the posi­tion to say yes or no to a direc­tor to choose which movie you want to be in or which movie you don’t want to be in?

A: Kind of. You get cer­tain offers and stuff, but with this, it was before Twi­light came out, and I read the script and I wanted to do another job before Twi­light came out. I didn’t end up doing one, but that was one of the things I read. So with this, usu­ally every sin­gle young guy who is a lead is often such a stock char­ac­ter. But Tyler wasn’t really com­ing from an obvi­ous place and wasn’t end­ing up in an obvi­ous place either, so it gave you much more to work with, and it could be more of a char­ac­ter piece. There are cer­tain things about generic films where you have to do cer­tain things and per­form in a cer­tain way, and it doesn’t really make sense. I think that’s why this is kind of a lit­tle bit weird in that respect, it doesn’t really fit what you’d expect from this kind of drama.

Q: With Remem­ber Me, were there cer­tain aspects of the char­ac­ter you could empathize with? He’s a guy who likes to do his own thing…

A: Yeah, in a lot of ways, I saw right from the begin­ning that he was quite sim­i­lar to me, and I kind of tried to tai­lor it to be even more sim­i­lar, but then the more I tai­lored it, the more it became a fic­tional cre­ation. But yeah, I’ve been say­ing there’s a kind of moment where, I think it’s the end of the ado­les­cent period, where you think that you have to be an indi­vid­ual so much and you want to stamp your iden­tity on every­thing. I mean, you get to your early 20s and you are much more accept­ing of being part of the world, and not want­ing to drive every­thing away from you all the time, and I kind of had that when I was in my early 20s.

5 Reasons Why Remember Me’s Tyler Might Be As Lovable as Twilight’s Edward

Awww…

Here’s some cute suggestions of why you should go see Remember Me:

1- The lamely adorable way he picks up girls — just wait until you see him work the charm with Ally (Emilie de Ravin).

2- The too-cute way he says, “Abso-freakin’-lutely!” to his little sister Caroline (Ruby Jerins) when she asks if he’ll go to her art show.

3- His heart-wrenching relationship with his deceased older brother… so close that the moment he falls in love, he rushes off to write to him about her at their favorite diner.

4- His determination — he does everything he can to win Ally a gigantic bear at the carnival… and ends up paying for it!

5- The big brother heart that has him carrying a pink sleeping bag, defending her against mean girls, and reading stories about Greek gods to her in bed to make her feel better.  Awww!

Don’t forget to check out Remember Me in theatres Friday, March 12th!!!  And definately go back the next day to support Rob for Remember Me Saturday!

AP: Robert Pattinson fears life after ‘Twilight’

Here’s one of the many interviews Rob has recently done during his Remember Me press junket.  Check it out!

NEW YORK – With his tousled, seemingly unwashed locks, and rumpled, just-rolled-out-of-bed undershirt and jeans, Robert Pattinson seems laid-back and carefree.

But the 23-year-old heartthrob, who attracts throngs of screaming fans wherever he goes, has a lot on his mind these days — not the least of which is what will happen when the “Robsession” ends.

“If it suddenly dies down and suddenly no one is interested … yeah, it is worrying,” he says. “It’s scary to think that it all might just fundamentally stop after the ‘Twilight’ thing’s finished.”

That “Twilight thing” is the more than $1 billion movie franchise based on Stephenie Meyer’s best-selling series. Pattinson stars as Edward Cullen, the vegetarian vampire who falls in love with human Bella Swan.

Despite the success of the first two films, “Twilight” and “New Moon,” Pattinson hopes to break away from the emo, teenage undead role with his latest project, “Remember Me.” The drama stars Pattinson and Emilie de Ravin as twenty-somethings falling in love while coping with family tragedy. Pierce Brosnan and Chris Cooper co-star.

Pattinson, also an executive producer on the film, recently talked to The Associated Press about nude scenes, being idolized and what he fears most in life.

AP: Did you feel a lot of pressure choosing “Remember Me,” since it’s the first time we’re seeing you post-“Twilight”?

Pattinson: I just always liked the script. When I was making it, I didn’t even think about it. Now that it’s being released, it comes into context with all of that.

AP: I know your two sisters are older, but were you able to draw on any real-life experience for your role as a protective brother?

Pattinson: I’ve never really had the opportunity to do that, really. I remember when I was like 6 years old and one of my sisters was being bullied by someone and I came down with my foam baseball bat. That’s the only example of brotherly protectiveness I had.

MTV discusses upcoming hopes for ‘Twilight Saga: Eclipse’ movie

‘Eclipse’ Is Coming In June, And Here’s What We’re Hoping Will Sell It To A Wider Audience

While “New Moon” has certainly accrued fan approval and box office power since its release on November 20, critics haven’t had the same appreciation for the vampire romance. “Eclipse,” the next in the series, wrapped in October and is slated for a June 30, 2010 release, we have a few suggestions to help make it a film everyone — not just Twilighters — will enjoy.

Amp up the Bella and Edward romance
“Twilight” established the potent romance between Bella and Edward, but “New Moon” sacrificed much of the chemistry for the sake of Bella’s growing bond with Jacob. Granted, the reason why Edward was mostly absent during “New Moon” was because he broke up with Bella and was moping around in an apartment for months on end, but Chris Weitz forgot to reestablish why exactly Bella and Edward were so in love. With “Eclipse,” we hope David Slade explores their connection, especially with so many fans jumping ship to Team Jacob after seeing Taylor Lautner’s abs.

Expand the secondary characters
Even though Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner are the biggest draws for most fans, secondary characters like Anna Kendrick’s Jessica, Mike Welch’s Mike Newton, Dakota Fanning’s Jane and Michael Sheen’s Aro were key to some of the most fun parts of “New Moon.” “Eclipse” introduces a whole slew of new characters (Riley and Leah, anyone?) and we hope some of the old favorites aren’t sacrificed for the new, especially with Anna Kendrick’s potential Oscar win for “Up in the Air.” Plus, there’s the fact that the scenes in which Bella interacts with humans (like her father, played by Billy Burke, and the high school students) are some of the most interesting and well-acted in the series thus far.

Make the fight scenes more action-packed
Yes, we understand that a lot of care went into making the CGI werewolves in “New Moon,” and thank goodness the fight scenes in the second “Twilight” installment were better than the first, but the final battle in “Eclipse” is the most action-packed part of the entire “Twilight Saga.” With David Slade’s previous vampire film “30 Days of Night” under his belt, we can expect some intense action, but we’d like to remind him we want to see some newborn vamps being torn limb from limb anyways (and not just in slow motion).

Make the film more appealing to a non-“Twilight” audience
There are a lot of elements in “Eclipse” that could attract an audience not made up solely of Twilighters. In “New Moon,” there was no effort spent on setting up the story from the previous book or explaining why Bella and Edward are so in love. “Eclipse” was the book that made Stephenie Meyer’s vampire series what it is today, and hopefully “Eclipse” the movie will break the film series out to a larger audience as well.

Have fun with it
Some of the best parts of “New Moon” were when screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg and director Chris Weitz let loose and had fun with the film. “Face Punch,” anyone? (This I consider a stroke of genius. I expect a “Face Punch” movie poster for Chanukah.) Flying Virgin America to Italy? Jessica’s commentary on zombie films? If “Eclipse” doesn’t take itself too seriously and doesn’t hold itself too close to the book, it could turn out to be not only a great movie for “Twilight” fans, but a great film in general.

Robert Pattinson Says Heading Into Non-‘Twilight’ Territory Is ‘Scary’

‘You’re expected to come into the movie and provide not only economic viability, but also a performance,’ he says.

By Larry Carroll, with reporting by Jeff Cornell

 

With the #1 movie in the world bearing his name above the title and Hollywood’s hottest scripts lining his doorstep, it’s a good time to be Robert Pattinson. Not that the 23-year-old star has had much chance to enjoy it, as he recently told us he only received “three days off” in 2009, and 2010 looks even busier.

Recently, MTV Radio caught up with the man beloved by millions as Edward Cullen to discuss his plans for the new year — from “Breaking Dawn” and beyond.

“I’ve only done one movie outside of the ‘Twilight’ series, ‘Remember Me,’ ” Rob said of his first true post-fame project, a March 12 romantic drama opposite Emilie de Ravin whose shoot was most notable for its security issues. “But even that I did with the same studio, so I guess I’m still a little bit blind as to what my actual economic viability will be outside of the series.”

Undoubtedly, all eyes will be on “Remember Me” when it tests RPattz’s box-office clout in a few months. Following that and June’s “Eclipse,” his fans will have some other high-profile flicks to look out for.

“I think the tentative time for ‘Breaking Dawn’ is fall next year,” Rob said of the fourth “Twilight” novel, which might be split into two films. “Depending on how things go, I’m doing a movie called ‘Bel Ami’ in February, an adaption to a Guy de Maupassant novel. And I’m doing — I hope — a Western with Rachel Weisz and Hugh Jackman called ‘Unbound Captives’ sometime around there as well. They’ve got to try and juggle things around until everybody’s schedules work.”

Rob said he was eager to play the “Unbound Captives” role because it’s unlike anything he’s done before. “I’m playing a kid who was kidnapped by Comanche [warriors] when he was 4 years old. And he was brought up by them, and then his mother spends her entire life trying to find me and my sister,” he said of Weisz’s vengeful-mom role. “When she finds us, we can’t remember who she is and can’t remember anything about the Western culture which she grew up in.

“It’s like, you can’t really be more different from Edward,” he added. “I actually signed on to that after I’d done ‘Twilight,’ in the summer after I’d finished [shooting]. It was really before anything had happened [to make me famous]. I wasn’t even really thinking about it.

“It’s just a cool script,” Pattinson said of the film, drawing comparisons to the classic final movie featuring the star he is most often compared to: James Dean. “It reminds me in a lot of ways of ‘Giant,’ which is one of my favorite movies. So I think that’s why I responded to it.”

Already booked pretty solidly for the next year, Rob said he’ll continue to read new scripts and look for other parts that might catch his attention — even if there are some facets of his newfound fame that undermine the process.

“It’s definitely different,” he said of being a famous actor as opposed to a struggling one. “You get offered stuff that you would never dream of getting offered before, but that’s also scary. You don’t have to audition for anything. [But] I don’t want to do a movie just so it gets made. … You have to question yourself a lot more.

“Before ‘Twilight,’ I did any movie that I got [offered], and you’d try and make the best of it afterwards,” he explained. “But now, you’re expected to come into the movie and provide not only economic viability, but also a performance as well. You can’t just mess around. People are like, ‘We’re employing you to be here, as a star and an actor.’ It’s difficult, and it’s scary.”
