‘The Rover’ Full Production Notes – Quotes From Rob, About Rob + Great Details Leave a comment
You can read the whole thing HERE downloading the pdf file, but we are going to post now all quotes from Rob and about Rob + a few very interesting details of the movie.
-> In the DEVELOPMENT & IMPLEMENTATION section of the file, David Michôd talks about casting Rob as Rey (page 6)
(…)
The next step was to build a cast around Pearce that Michôd felt confident in. The global success of Animal Kingdom opened doors for him in Los Angeles, and he was in the privileged position to be able to audition some heavyweights. Working with Casting Director Kirsty McGregor, and Lava Bear’s President of Production Tory Metzger, Michôd spent a lot of time reviewing the work of various actors, so by the time he auditioned Robert Pattinson he had worked out what he wanted for the character of Rey. Michôd had never seen a Twilight film and wasn’t overly familiar with Pattinson, but upon meeting together in LA, and after his audition Pattinson quickly became his favourite for the role. Recalls Michôd: “His performance in the tests was really great and real and moving. What I also liked about him was that it was really quite evident to me from our first conversation that he really wanted to do it.”
