Robert Pattinson To Participate in Haiti Telethon-Rumors   1 comment

Recently, George Clooney and Robert Pattinson have been linked (through mutual co-star Anna Kendrick) in a joking back-and-forth about their good looks.

Today, though, it’s good deeds that might bring the two together, and it’s no laughing matter.

There’s a lot of talk about whether Pattinson will participate in Clooney’s telethon to raise relief funds for earthquake-devastated Haiti next Friday, January 22.

As of now it looks like Pattinson has not formally joined the event, although it remains a distinct possibility.

A source close to Pattinson tells Gossip Cop the “Twilight” star has not received a call, but “I’m sure Robert would participate if asked.”

Gossip Cop will monitor all telethon developments as they happen…

Gossip Cop Busts Rumors of Robert Pattinson as Spider-Man….Again   1 comment

Here we go again.

Dozens of outlets are breathlessly repeating rumors that Robert Pattinson is the leading candidate to replace Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man.

You’ll recall that the story started as an April Fool’s prank later dusted off and published (without context) by the Oh No They Didn’t community. Gossip Cop busted the site and the speculation.

Just a few days ago, though, Sony announced that it would reboot the Spider-Man franchise, letting Maguire and director Sam Raimi go. And once it became clear that there will (eventually) be a new actor in the lead role, blogs anointed Pattinson. Buzz bubbled all the way up to the granddaddy of all cut-and-pasters and gained huge momentum.

Gossip Cop needs to step in.

Yes, there will now be a new Spider-Man, but Robert Pattinson is NOT set to take the part.

Pattinson is committed to a busy upcoming slate that includes Bel Ami, Unbound Captives, and a potential Breaking Dawn production. He’s been wrongly linked to projects ranging from X-Men to Yellow Submarine. The Spidey rumor is no more real.

We’ve spoken with sources close to the studio, which now needs to devise a new identity for the franchise, a new timetable, and a new script. Casting is not yet on the radar.

Any outlet stirring Pattinson into the mix does so with zero factual basis.

Gossip Cop will monitor all “Spider-Man” developments.
