Random facts about RobertHis acting inspiration is Jack Nicholson. "I aspire to be Jack Nicholson. I love every single mannerism. I used to try and be him in virtually everything I did. I don't know why. I watched One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest when I was about 13, and I dressed like him I tried to do his accent. I did everything like him. I think it kind of stuck with me."
Rpatzz to Pink Magazine in 2005To play the awkward, off-beat young musician Arthur in How to be, his challenge was, playing guitar out of beat (he's a good guitar player), playing harmonica, and muting his good looks (he succeeded, he looked totally dorky)
To get into character for Twilight, Robert isolated himself and wrote in a journal in character as Edward Cullen and avoided the sun during filming for the movie, to keep that pale vampire look!
QUOTES about him:“He’s a really great actor and a really good guy,” said Jackman. “His role is phenomenal and it’s going to be really amazing stuff.” H
ugh Jackman to star Unbound Captives with RPatzz"There's something that draws you to Rob. He is really intelligent and he's a charming chap as well. When the Twilight thing exploded I wasn't surprised. Little Ashes will be seen by a lot more people now." "Previously he was just that guy from Harry Potter The fact that he's playing Dali will wash that off a bit and people will see him as a proper actor" -
Matthew played Luis Buñuel in Little Ashes"Robert is an exceptional guy, on and off the set. Generous and very nice. A professional from head to toe. I can’t tell you anything else. It was a pleasure to work with him and meet him in person. I’ve just have good words for him, the same with the rest of the cast and the shooting team." -
Little Ashes co-star Javier Beltran played Federico García Lorca"There was a call from the head of the studio," (about execs questioning Pattinson's casting as Edward Cullen). "'Are you sure you can make this guy handsome?'" [...] "He's obviously ridiculously photogenic, but he's also so talented…I see him creating stylized, odd, wild, fantastical characters." -
Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke "You buy the fantasy because Pattinson goes beyond dreamboat duty to create a character you believe in." -
Rolling Stone Magz."A lot of guys are pretty but they're not dangerous and other guys are dangerous but they're not pretty enough and when they started talking about Rob I was like, okay, he really seems like he can really be able to do that, he's got both sides" -
Author Stephenie Meyer admits on the official Twilight DVD"I remember he was very handsome. I do remember that. I thought, 'I have a really handsome son.' It was an older version of my character who had been sort of a ruined woman, and she was at the end of her life and I just remember I had to sob and cry all over him." -
