Guy Pearce expects Robert Pattinson to become the “biggest movie star in the world”.
The 47-year-old actor appears alongside the ‘Twilight’ star in thriller film ‘The Rover’ and he believes the hunk’s great looks and superb acting ability can enable him to become the best in the industry if he puts his mind to it.
He said: “I’d met Robert briefly one Comic Con a couple of years ago and told him he was great – I’d only seen one of his films, ‘Water For Elephants’.
“He’s as interested in delving into character as much, if not more, than I am.
“I thought, ‘This guy’s totally my cup of tea.’ Then I put two and two together and went, ‘Hang on, he looks like that, he’s that famous and he’s this good …. Seriously, if he doesn’t become the biggest movie star in the world there’s something wrong.’
“Amazing as an actor and amazing looking – what a combination.”
Did you feel the need to seek stronger characters?
[…] And the next thing I do is another strong film with the character of a mother whose son is very particular, a little awkward and weird. Over the scenes you’re realizing that it is not a normal guy, he’ll become a monster or something. And it is about the relationship with the mother and father. So good, I read, I liked that I was given a role as well, and I’m going to do. I was lucky to do very different things.
‘And in Hollywood? I guess after your Oscar nomination in 2012 for The Artist, should many proposals to work in the United States have arrived.
-A Michel reached him many scripts. I already had two films to make and was not available for two years. And now that I told you that I do, is an American film, a debut, with Tim Roth, that will play my husband, and Robert Pattinson, the character of a family friend.
Lorraine Kelly admits she was quite taken with Robert Pattinson when she interviewed him.
The bubbly TV presenter thought Twilight star Rob, 28, was easy-going and lovely to chat to but felt he was uncomfortable with his new-found fame.
‘He was adorable, but far too young for me to flirt with!’ says Lorraine, 55.
‘I interviewed him during the whole Twilight madness and he seemed very overwhelmed by it all.
‘I think he’s far happier now that’s over and he can concentrate on quirkier roles. I don’t think he seemed comfortable with the whole sex symbol status.’
