From Popsugar: The day you’ve been waiting for is almost here — get ready for popcorn, soda, and candy, because Water For Elephants premieres this week, and we can hardly wait! The film tells the tumultuous tale of Jacob (Robert Pattinson), a veterinary student who suddenly loses both his parents, Marlena (Reese Witherspoon), a beautiful performer, and Rosie, the lovable elephant who inevitably brings these star-crossed lovers together.
The chemistry in this film is undeniable — I’m pretty sure Reese’s costumes have something to do with it. So grab your girlfriends, and get yourself to the theater April 22 to see how this forbidden love story unfolds. Check out the trailer below!
From Fablife: Have you seen Hal Holbrook in Into The Wild? His storyline is our favorite in that movie (don’t worry, Kristen Stewart‘s #2) and he’s a seasoned and spectacular actor. On Sunday he told us that his Water for Elephants co-star Robert Pattinson impressed him with his “manner” and called him a “modest young man.” Everyone we’ve ever talked to about Pattinson has echoed Holbrook’s sentiment, and the few times we’ve interviewed him we’ve noticed the same thing. Humble RPattz is humble!
Holbrook, who plays the older version of Rob’s character in the movie, also marveled at how much he looks like a younger version of himself. His entire interview is very sweet – we love his thoughts on the megalomania of Hollywood, of which both he and Rob seem destined to avoid. Watch above.
Did you see our posters in NYC? Did you also know that Rob liked them? We made you some new ones for Berlin: get yours autographed by the cast and send us a pic! We’d love to see them and you’ll have a great memory of a great day. Posters can be printed in tabloid size – thats A3 size for Europe or resize them to A4 (click the image to make big).
Tip: take a silver or white marker with you so they’ll be able to sign on the darker area’s and something hard to put underneath so they have a good steady surface to sign.
To play a circus performer in the big-screen adaptation of Water for Elephants, Reese Witherspoon had to transform her chic modern style into a believable retro look, something she couldn’t have done without the expertise of wardrobe designer Jacqueline West.”In the 1930s, gowns were very revealing, ” says West. “The women of that era wore them without any underwear, so that’s what Reese did. She was very brave.” Witherspoon’s co-star Robert Pattinson also got into character with his unmentionables. “He loved that I had authentic 1930s underwear for him,” West remembers. “He said it helped transport him.”

It’s the same interview from Criativa Magazine , just with some more new quotes (the Royal wedding and a couple more) and things are not “lost in translation” anymore
Emmanuel Itier: How was it with working all these wild animals, and has your conception of circuses changed while doing this movie in the sense of how they treat animals? Robert Pattinson: I don’t really know how circuses themselves treat animals. I know a lot of circuses get a bad name for it, but none of the animals we had were from circuses; they were all film animals and stuff. I know how hard it must be. It must be just ridiculous because it’s relentless…because of the amount of injuries the animals get and stuff. For instance, with the horses — to teach those horses the tricks that they needed to know, it took months and months and months and months. If one of them goes down, there’s no back-up or anything. It’s going to take another six months to train a horse. It’s so precarious, running a circus so much. But working with wild animals, for me, was one of the things which I thought made the job easier. Even before we started, I was thinking it’s like doing a job where you’re just working with babies all the time, because the babies are going to do their own thing and you just react to the baby. I mean, if you’ve got an elephant in the scene and the elephant is kind of doing whatever it wants, it’s so easy to play anything because you suddenly have a trunk in your face or something, and then you’ve got to just make something up. No one expects the scene to be totally perfect because everyone has accepted that these are wild animals, and whatever comes will come. It’s not all like, “The animal’s got to hit its mark!” It’s never going to be like that. It made it very a relaxing set, in a weird sort of way.
