According to cinesargentinos Bel Ami will be released on October 18 in Argentina
He may be the co-star in her latest movie but that didn’t stop Uma Thurman from being upfront about Robert Pattinson.
The 41-year-old actress was obviously expecting a question about the Twilight star when she appeared in this month’s Harper’s Bazaar UK magazine – and she was certainly ready to answer it.
‘To answer the ubiquitous question about this movie, yes, Robert is good-looking in person, but he doesn’t have that diamond-sparkle skin like in those Dracula movies,’ she said.
The mother-of-two was of course referring to upcoming film Bel Ami in which she plays Pattinson’s secret love interest.
As she draped herself across a velvet sofa in an array of designer dresses, Thurman went on to say that she enjoyed the role very much.
‘It was a fun character, a nice, meaty, dramatic role, and who doesn’t love an excuse to wear a corset?’ she told the monthly publication.
But before she could change the subject, she had one more thing to say about Pattinson: ‘He’s a very disciplined, very serious, very ambitious, very organised actor.’
The full feature appears in the February issue of Harper’s Bazaar UK, on sale Thursday 5th January.

The Guardian (UK) has listed Cosmopolis on their 50 Biggest Films to Watch in 2012 list.
From The Guardian:
Robert Pattinson already looks to be forging the most interesting post-Twilight career of its leads, and here he teams up with David Cronenberg for an adaptation of Don DeLillo’s 2003 novel. Cosmopolis is a modern answer to Joyce’s Ulysses: one day in the life of asset manager Eric Packer, who loses billions of dollars in the financial markets in a 24-hour period as his limo traverses New York.
Rob’s life after Twilight & Harry Potter
Arguably, it’s Pattinson who looks to be making the most interesting moves. At 25, he’s the oldest, and cut his teeth as Cedric Diggory in the Potter films. In the past he has demonstrated a literary/artistic bent (he played Salvador Dalí in his last pre-Twilight film, Little Ashes), and he’s going down that road again next year, with Bel Ami (released 2 March), an adaptation of the Maupassant novel. Later in the year we should be getting Cosmopolis, another literary adaptation (of Don DeLillo’s 2003 novel), which has Pattinson as a mega-rich asset manager stuck in a limo for 24 hours. The director is David Cronenberg, so chances are this will be pretty special.

2012: The unmissable cultural treats
Bel Ami
Twilight’s Robert Pattinson plays an unscrupulous journalist on the make in 19th century Paris in an adaptation of Guy de Maupassant’s novel directed by Declan Donnellan and Nick Ormerod (from theatre company Cheek by Jowl.) Long before phone hacking and the Leveson Inquiry, the film shows that journalists were using the most devious means to get ahead.
Release Date: 2 March
Cosmopolis
A multi-millionaire young stockbroker heads across Manhattan in a limousine to have a haircut. It may not sound like much of a starting point for a film but David Cronenberg’s screen version of Don DeLillo’s novel promises to be a sleek and disturbing satire about narcissism and modernity. Robert Pattinson stars as the self-absorbed anti-hero.
Release date: TBC
