Rob Speaks About Remember Me and Directing 1 comment
'Remember Me' Director Allen Coulter chats about the Paparazzi and Rob Leave a comment
Twilight is part of this movie even if you didn’t intend it, in the way it brings attention to the movie and just the fact that Summit is releasing it. How has that worked for you?
When we cast him Twilight wasn’t out, and I didn’t know who he was. That was an advantage, because I cast him just because I liked him. We hope people will go to this movie who might not have pursued it otherwise. If he wasn’t this phenom, you wouldn’t automatically assume that tens of thousands of teenage girls would show up the first day. We hope that is the case. But this is a movie I made for adults.
When did you realize you had the biggest star in the world in your movie?
Certainly the first day, when we had the thousands of girls standing outside from dawn until dusk. We realized what we were in for. It was not easy, believe me.
We understand there was one day where you snapped at the paparazzi?
We found ourselves in a situation with the movie that we never expected to be in. No one had an idea that basically we had unleashed Elvis. It was tough from the very beginning. All of us were a little gobsmacked by this. We just struggled the best we could. That was just a day that I felt the sense of entitlement the paparazzi had, that they had the right to demand certain kinds of shots. We were just trying to make the day, the sun was falling, the last shot that we did, that was it. They were angry they couldn’t get a shot of him. They felt it was their right, that we should accommodate them. I lost it, and they deserved it. They deserve worse. That was the one time I couldn’t hold back.
What inspired you to cast Rob to begin with?
We needed someone who could embody a certain kind of angst that one feels at 21, and the complications and complex relationships that grow from the confusions of being 21. And Rob seemed in our initial meeting to understand that and grasp that, but have enough distance on it to be able to act that.

Rob talks 'Remember Me' With the Montreal Gazette 1 comment
MONTREAL – The consensus is that Robert Pattinson has mastered the James Dean art of brooding as the sullen poster boy for the latest generation.
Pattinson’s heartthrob status has been defined by his portrayal of the conflicted vampire-in-recovery Edward Cullen in the popular Twilight film series, based on the Stephenie Meyer novels.
There was Twilight in 2008, New Moon last year, and Eclipse is set for release, to a great deal of anticipation, on June 30. Breaking Dawn, the finale, is expected to be released as two movies over the next few years.

Rob's Interview With Parade – Talks about his dog, filming in NYC and music Leave a comment
Robert Pattinson is taking a break from his Twilight stardom to play a rebellious New York college student in Remember Me. In the indie flick, the 23-year-old gets to explode with rage, fall in love with a girl (played by Lost’s Emilie de Ravin) and go head-to head with his domineering father (played by Pierce Brosnan).
Parade.com’s Jeanne Wolf found out what Pattinson had in common with his character’s search for identity.
Acting as therapy.
“I try and pick roles that will help me develop as a human being and I think I was going through a similar kind of experience as my character Tyler, which I guess you could call being rebellious. I thought just doing the film would actually help me to think about and discover things that would help me in my life. I was kind of using it as a therapy exercise.”

Stargazing | Robert Pattinson wonders: Is there life after 'Twilight'? 2 comments
With his seemingly unwashed locks and just-rolled-out-of-bed undershirt and jeans, Robert Pattinson seems laid-back and carefree.
But the 23-year-old heartthrob, who attracts throngs of screaming fans wherever he goes, has a lot on his mind these days — not the least of which is what will happen when the “Robsession” ends.
“If it suddenly dies down and suddenly no one is interested … yeah, it is worrying,” he says. “It’s scary to think that it all might just fundamentally stop after the ‘Twilight’ thing’s finished.”
That “?‘Twilight’ thing” is the more than $1 billion movie franchise based on Stephenie Meyer’s best-selling series. Pattinson stars as Edward Cullen, the vegetarian vampire who falls in love with human Bella Swan.
Despite the success of the first two films, “Twilight” and “New Moon,” Pattinson hopes to break away from the emo, teenage undead role with his latest project, “Remember Me,” which opens Friday. The drama stars Pattinson and Emilie de Ravin as 20-somethings falling in love while coping with family tragedy. Pierce Brosnan and Chris Cooper co-star.
Here, Pattinson, also an executive producer of the film, talks nude scenes, being idolized and what he fears most in life.
Q. Did you feel a lot of pressure choosing “Remember Me,” because it’s the first time we’re seeing you post-“Twilight”?
A. I just always liked the script. When I was making it, I didn’t even think about it. Now that it’s being released, it comes into context with all of that.

Rob Interview in Época Magazine – Brazil (With Translation) Leave a comment
Translation
He managed to displace the “God” in the expression “Oh my God”. It’s Robert Pattinson, the vampire Edward from the saga Twilight. Now, the fans of the actor scream “Oh my Edward” (OME!). To interview him is like having a birthday party; from taps on the back to smal bribes, that go from eternal gratitude, vanilla cupcakes (from fans trying to get seats for the screening of his new movie), to a 200 dollar bribe, offered (and not accepted) by a tabloid reporter who was at the door of the hotel, hunting for information on the british actor. In his super protected suite, Pattinson shows himself as a normal, sensible, eloquent and greasy haired guy. In Remember Me, he suffers a lot in the role of a College student, depressed by the suicide of his brother, who gets involved in a troubled romance. By the end of his interview with Época, the actor celebrates the fact that he bought, through Kindle, a complete colection of the works of Dostoiévsky. OME!

‘Remember Me’ lets Pattinson ditch the fangs – MAJOR SPOILER WARNING Leave a comment
Edward Cullen may be a world-class brooder, but the actor who portrays him, Robert Pattinson, actually enjoys a good laugh.
Pattinson certainly has much to be happy about these days. His career is red-hot, with the “Twilight” films having made him a multimedia sensation. He hopes his latest picture, “Remember Me,” which opens March 12, continues his career’s upwards trajectory. At the very least, it’s allowed him to do something he’s rarely had a chance to do onscreen: Smile.
“That’s one of the main reasons I wanted to do it,” Pattinson says of the film. “I had never played a normal guy. I’ve always done period stuff or fantasy stuff.”
Warning: This story contains MAJOR spoilers including the ending of “Remember Me.”
