Stephen Merchant Didn't Want Robert Pattinson in His New Film 5 comments
The Office’s Stephen Merchant has said he wouldn’t have wanted Robert Pattinson to star in his and Ricky Gervais’ new film Cemetery Junction.
The comedian and writer revealed he and Ricky chose to cast relatively unknown, up-and-coming British actors in the film about a group of young people growing up in Reading in the 70s, because they didn’t want stars like the Twilight actor stealing the spotlight.
Merchant said: “If you have a group of friends and one of them is Robert Pattinson, you’re sort of ‘This is a Robert Pattinson movie’ where as we wanted people to accept they were friends so we had to find new people, and these were the people we found.”
He added: “Everyone forgets that when we did The Office, pretty much everyone, including Ricky, was kind of unknown. Audiences sort of accepted them as real people, and even with Extras, aside from the stars everyone was relatively unknown apart from Ricky so we’ve always sought out new blood and this was really exciting for us.”
Merchant revealed the film is “drawn on lots of elements of Ricky and I’s childhood, but it’s almost a romantic version of our memories of the past.
“It seemed like it was a lot hotter and people seemed cooler and sexier than they probably were and there’s far fewer bad teeth than there were in the 70s.”
Speaking of working with Ricky again he joked: “I never enjoy working with Ricky, it’s always an exhausting process. But, as you may have noticed, I have never had success beyond working with Ricky so you need to go back to the fold. I’m always drawn back in.”

Robert Pattinson's interview in the Norwegian Magazine TOPP 2 comments
– I HATE TO FLIRT!
He has never flirted with a girl, and he’s not very romantic. But we love the it-boy Robert Pattinson (23) anyway.
– Hi! Robert yawns loudly.
Tired or what? I ask.
– Hehe, I’m sorry. I’ll shake off my tiredness. It’s my first day off in a long time, the hunk answers.
Robert wears a brown wool jumper, black trousers, sneakers and a caps when we meet him at The Dorchester Hotel in London. With a huge beard and messy, half long hair, it’s difficult to imagine Robert as the clean shaved vampire Edward Cullen. But he still looks handsome when he takes a sip from a bottle of Cola Light that stands in front of him at the table.
The last years have passed by fast for the English man. Right after he was done filming Twilight, he started shooting the film Remember Me, which arrives in cinemas soon. To be the new it-boy both in Hollywood and other places in the world takes a lot of energy from the 23-year old. Sometimes, it would’ve been good not to be recognised everywhere.
If you had 24 hours when no one recognised oyu, what would you have done?
– Nothing special, really. It’s a little bit weird, because I’ve been in London for a while now, and I can walk around and live my life as usual, something I didn’t think would work. In the USA it doesn’t work, though.
Maybe it’s because of the beard?
– Yes, I think that might be a reason.
Why did you grow a beard?
– I want to try to go to an audition without anyone knowing who I am, and see what happens. But I don’t think they’ll let me keep it in my next movie anyway…
ROBERT IS PREGNANT!
With the Twilight hysteria in mind, Robert now focuses on doing other movies in his career. These days, it’s his new movie Remember Me that he’s trying to promote. It’s a movie where Robert plays the angsty teenager, Tyler, who’s in deep sorrow after his brother’s suicide, and who’s at a point in life where nothing happens.
What attracts you about playing a teenager with problems?
– Usually when I read a script it’s about an innocent, virginual boy who goes through and inner experience, and it always ends with a happy ending. But Tyler, on the other hand, I feel he was different. He was so lost. Therefore, the role gave me more room, and I couldn’t compare the movie to something I’d seen before, Robert says.
Do you recognise something about yourself in Tyler?
– I wish I could. Tyler has that ability that he doesn’t worry about the consecueces about things because he has so little to loose. But I can’t live the way he does. I can’t say something completely random because it will haunt me in months afterwards. Because of that, I never try to say anything controversial.
But the press still manages to find a lot of information about you. What is the worst thing you’ve ever read about youself?
– I especially remember one time when someone claimed I was pregnant. It said on the cover of an Australian magazine. It was a little weird.
LOVES VINTAGE AND MARC JACOBS
Robert’s goal wasn’t to become famous, and he has never had a big dream of becoming it. But over night he went from being an unknown acor to a sex symbol for a bunch of girls. To keep his feet on the ground with such huge success, can be difficult.
What’s your key to relax after becoming an idol for a lot of people over the night?
– I think that’s the reason. The people who loose their minds, have fought to become famous their whole lives. And when they reach the top, they thinks “Yes, I deserve this!”. Many people appreciates fame so much, it’s scary.
For many people, a status as a celebrity involves a change in their style. Robert, on the other hand, looks very normal and relaxed in his clothes.
What kind of clothes do you like to shop?
– I like second hand very much. I love vintage, and I wish I could shop in vintage stores the whole time. But because a lot of paparazzis follows me around, it can be difficult.
What do you usually wear at finer events?
– I use a lot of Marc Jacobs. I almost always use his clothes on premieres because I feel it fits me, and I can’t always buy something new.

Fan Encounter 28 comments
A fan encounter from Jeanette, via Spunk-Ransom.
“So yeah, we went shopping and I bought lots of little New Moon goodies, god bless London, we have nothing in Liverpool. Literally nothing. We’re losers like that. We end up in this little shop next to Selfridges, it sold utter rubbish, but I like rubbish. I spend a lot of money on rubbish. I talk rubbish *continues with story* So I’m looking at some little goodies and my cousin elbows me in the side whispering ‘Jeanette turn round, quick, look, look, look now’ Me, not having a clue what she’s talking about, is too scared to turn around thinking I’m going to get attacked or something. My cousin has to literally pull me to face the other direction. I turn and guess who is standing less than a few meters away from me? ROBERT PATTINSON.
Oh and Tom Sturridge too! But Rob was there, infront of me. So TomStu was forgotten. :’)
So whilst I was in let’s stare at Rob land my cousin is shouting at me for not listening, she then is like ‘go up to him’ which I thought was the stupidest idea ever and refused. (I was scared okay!) So she just walked over to him (must be nice knowing him! Pfft!) While I’m left standing there like a fool.
She goes over to him and starts speaking to him like they are best friends. (NOT AT ALL JEALOUS) then asks him if he would sign the picture (the one I mentioned before) for me. She points at me whilst I’m standing there catching flies (because I’m that dozy).
Rob then turns to look at me and says ‘Come over here, I don’t bite’ then looks down at the picture in his hand (of Edward) and laughs that lovely tinkling laugh. *sigh*
I walked over slowly (I’m sorry I’m just a big loser, it’s true *smiles*) and stood before him. He asked me if I had a pen to sign the picture and I literally died a little… I didn’t have a pen.
I frantically looked around the shop and picked up a pack of Sharpie pens and tore the pack open. Bahahahaha. The shop man did not look happy at this, but who cares? Rob Pattinson needed a pen. ;D
I gave him the pen, he asked me my name and signed the picture to me. Whilst signing it he says ‘I hope you’re going to pay for this pen, I don’t condone stealing’ to which I replied ‘no’ He laughed handed me the picture, took the pack of pens off me and… wait for it… PAID FOR THE PENS.
Everytime I’ve said I’ve died within this encounter? I take it back, I died when he bought the pens. How many people can say Robert Pattinson paid for a pack of pens for them? (Whilst purchasing ciggies may I add) That’s exactly what he did. He gave me the pens back after he paid. *squeals like a fangirl* He then said it was nice meeting us and started to walk out the shop.
I, after holding in a giant squeal for so long, let it out and squealed and jumped up and down like a strange fangirl (I just couldn’t help myself). What I didn’t realise was that he was still in the shop. He turned around after hearing an earshattering scream and fucking SMIRKED AT ME. He then waved at us and left the shop.”
