David Cronenberg talks about Robert Pattinson with GQ and Film4 Leave a comment
From GQ:
Do you think Eric Packer is the most stylish character you’ve ever created?
Actually, I think Dr Jung in A Dangerous Method was pretty darn stylish. There is a contemporary quality to Eric that is certainly timely and cutting-edge in that sense. On the other hand, he’s a guy who, like a lot of the financiers that we read about now, the “London Whale” being one of them, really want to be anonymous. They don’t want to cut a great figure in the public eye. Part of their power as investors is anonymity and so although Eric Packer does have a bodyguard in this movie, the bodyguard is there to protect his life, not keep the fans away.What’s been your worst date?
I never really dated. The thing is I’ve been married for about 37 years and it’s kind of a strange thing because I’ve never done this tradition of dating and pick-up lines. Somebody in Berlin said, “What’s the worst pickup line you’ve ever heard?” I said, “I’ve never given one, at least not consciously”. Rob said his answer for that is “I would look good in your clothes”. I thought that was a pretty good one.

New Robert Pattinson interview with Metro UK 1 comment
He’s Britain’s second-richest under-30 actor behind Daniel Radcliffe, worth a fortune of more than £30millio. He’s one of Time magazine’s 100 Most Influential People in The World. He’s the Sexiest Man In The World. But he’s made a huge mistake.
‘Sorry, I just had a McDonald’s!’ laughs Robert Pattinson. ‘My stomach’s going, “Raaargh!” I always think McDonald’s is a good idea. It’s never been a good idea.’ Now would be a great time to forget what you think you know about Pattinson. Forget the fame, the money, the daft awards, the vampire movies, the screaming tweens, the are-they-aren’t-they? thing with Kristen Stewart.

*AUDIO* David Cronenberg talks about casting Robert Pattinson with Francine Stock & France Inter 3 comments
David Cronenberg talks to Francine Stock from ‘The Film Programme’ about ‘Cosmopolis’, casting Rob & his fans at 3:50.
ETA another audio interview added – David talks about Rob in Cosmopolis with France Inter at 11:20 and 28:58. Listen to it HERE
11:12 to 12:55: Is it true, David Cronenberg, that during the shooting of Cosmopolis, you were saying to Robert Pattinson – who’s the lead: “If you understand anything to what we’re doing, we’re lost.”
David: I did say that, I said, because he said: ‘I have no idea what I’m doing with this movie and what this character is.’ And I said: “But you are doing everything perfectly correct.” And therefore, it would be boring and it would lack spontaneity , it would lack inventiveness, if you knew before you made the film everything you need to do in the film. Also, I’ve said many times that you make the film to understand why you wanted to make the film. You don’t even know why you wanna do this film. And I was explaining to him, because he’s a young actor and he did not have the experience, that they are many ways to understand something. It’s not always a sort of logical intellectual way of understanding. It’s more intuitive, it’s visceral. And he has wonderful intiution and mainly when I said that, I was really saying to him: “Trust your intuition, you really have wonderful acting intuitions, you must trust them.”
at 28:24 to 28:58 David: Both DeLillo and Burroughs have wonderful, very funny, very strange, very bizarre dilaogue, and wonderful to hear actors speak. So I’m sure I have absorbed Burroughs from a very early age. The rythym of their speech is very american, I’m Canadian and so when I hear american speech from DeLillo, from Burroughs it’s foreign to me, it’s foreign dialogue. Canadians don’t speak that way. So just as Robert Pattinson, who is English, has to do an American accent when he is in the movie, I too as a writer and a director, I am actually doing an american accent.

Robert Pattinson in ‘The Scotsman’ – “Pattinson takes back seat” 4 comments
THANKS to his role as ‘vegetarian’ vampire Edward Cullen in the Twilight saga, Robert Pattinson is now one of the biggest stars on the planet. But for that very reason he nearly turned down his latest role in David Cronenberg’s Cosmopolis.
“It was a little nerve-racking and it scared me because I was shooting the last Twilight movie when I got offered it,” he says. “I was really self-conscious, thinking ‘Ugh, I’m just so over-saturated everywhere’,” says the 26-year-old, taking a cocktail stick out of his mouth – he recently gave up smoking.
“I really wanted to do ensemble things and then this comes along, which is so in your face – I’m speaking all the time. But there was something about it which I thought was amazing and it was David as well, so I couldn’t really say no to it.”
In the movie, Pattinson plays 28-year-old billionaire Eric Packer, who is determined to be chauffeured across New York City in his extravagant limousine to get a haircut, even though the city is in turmoil compounded by a visit from the President of the United States.
As the day goes by, wild activity erupts on the streets while Packer watches helplessly as his empire collapses. His growing paranoia leads him to piece together clues to a most terrifying secret: his imminent assassination.
It’s a visceral trip for cinema-goers. Dialogue is almost poetic and the majority of scenes take place in Packer’s limousine.
Cocooned within, he conducts business meetings, meets lovers, eats, drinks, urinates and even has his daily check-up by a doctor.
But it wasn’t the sex or violence or even a certain probing scene that fazed Pattinson. “The toughest part was just the first day,” he says.
“The only thing I didn’t really know how to do, even when we started shooting, was say the first line, which is ‘I want a haircut’.”
Laughing nervously, he says, “I still think it’s the worst delivery in the whole movie.”
Far from feeling embarrassed by the scene in which he undergoes a prostate examination – while seducing his financial advisor – Pattinson says he was excited about it.
“I mean it’s doing a scene that you know has never been done before and is never going to be done again,” he laughs
