Robert talks about whether he chose to do Cosmopolis in order to avoid Twilight typecasting, how Ryan Gosling’s career helped him understand his own situation, what it feels like to be somewhat isolated as a celebrity, arguing with Adele about ambition, his plans post-Twilight, his feelings about Heath Ledger’s work in ‘The Dark Knight’, and where he’d like to see Hollywood go.
The show airs tomorrow night, Thursday, June 7, at 11:05 pm on CBC television. It’s a Cosmopolis special, also featuring interviews with director David Cronenberg and fellow actors Paul Giamatti and Sarah Gadon.
Imagine, if you will, a movie that takes place almost entirely in a stretch limousine, with the cameras trained directly on the main character. This is David Cronenberg‘s latest film, Cosmopolis, and if you didn’t know already, it stars Twilight alumnusRobert Pattinson in the lead role.
At times dark, at times light(er), but all the time serious, Cosmopolis is a cerebral, dialogue-heavy take on Don DeLillo’s book of the same name. With the limo serving as his corporate office, Pattinson plays Eric Packer, a youthful entrepreneur with money to burn and a desire for something more. For most of the film, Pattinson meets-and-greets with people in his limo/office — it’s a series of bizarre vignettes, with his daily visit from his doctor as one of the highlights.
Cosmopolis is a look inside a brilliant mind, but also a voyeuristic insight into what it might be like to lose it all. We’ve put together a bunch of things you need to know about the movie, just in case you were expecting something else entirely.
According to Cinema Montreal Bel Ami will hit the theaters in Canada on June 8 (yes, this friday!). We never got an official confirmation on a release date but for now we’re going with this date. If you find more info about it we’d love to hear 🙂 Click HERE or the image to get your tickets:
