The on-screen chemistry in ‘Water for Elephants’ was wild and fierce — between lady, man and giant, lovable mammal
There’s a ton of buzz about Reese Witherspoon and Robert Pattinson’s chemistry in their new film, “Water for Elephants,” out Friday.
But if you’re under the impression this is “The Notebook” under the Big Top, think again: For both actors, the sizzle is between them and Tai
the elephant.
“You know how there are just some people that people
are attracted to? She’s like that with people and other elephants,”
says Kari Johnson, co-trainer of Tai, the pachyderm who plays the
movie’s eponymous star. And she had some big shoes to fill, even for an
elephant: Rosie, the character in Sara Gruen’s Depression-era novel upon
which the movie is based, is a scene-stealer with a nose for mischief
who likes to swipe hats, drain lemonade tanks and indulge in the
occasional bucket of gin and ginger ale.
LOS ANGELES—“It’s a secret,” said Robert Pattinson, breaking into laughter. He was just asked to talk some more about the script he is supposedly writing, based on a novel by Lillian Hellmann, as disclosed in a Vanity Fair cover story on the actor by Nancy Jo Sales.
“Water For Elephants” tells from the magical love which changes two people despite every objection and holds a lifetime. In the sophisticated screen adaption of Sara Gruen’s same-named bestseller, a past era becomes vivid again and a circus to a loction of dramatic incidents.
All the Swedes out there now have to opportunity to win tickets for Water For Elephants plus a copy of the book, via SFBio.se

Robert Pattinson has made it onto Cineplex list: 2011’s Top British Imports.
Robert Pattinson has made it onto the list as #4
#4 ROBERT PATTINSON
As seen in: Twilight series, Remember Me
Why he’s on the list…We wouldn’t dream of putting together a list of hot British thesps and not include the one and only RPattz, who went from scruffy bit player in Harry Potter to one of the most sought-after faces in show business. With two more Twilight flicks to go – Breaking Dawn, Part 1 and 2 – Pattinson has started to plot his post-tween fandom career, choosing an adaptation like Water for Elephants with Reese Witherspoon, Bel Ami with Uma Thurman and David Cronenberg mind-bender Cosmopolis. Aww, our Pattinson is growing up.
He is joined on the list by the likes of Russell Brand, Andrew Garfield & James McAvoy
