Torture Tuesday starring Robert Pattinson: BEL AMI WEEK!!!

Torture Tuesday starring Robert Pattinson: BEL AMI WEEK!!!

IT'S TIME!!!!!! IT'S TIIIIIIIIIIIMMMMEEEE!!!!!!



I'm bursting out of my skin. I'm a sizzling live wire. I'm a bundle of cosmic fire. Can you tell I'm READY for Bel Ami???

Australian distributor, Hopscotch Films, released this cool, behind-the-scenes look at Bel Ami but before we get to that, let's talk business: how will you be viewing Bel Ami on May 4th?

Amazon Instant Video viewers: 
Magnolia Pictures released a VOD film (Apartment 143) on April 27th. I checked Amazon on April 27th at midnight ET and the film was not up. It was not available for instant viewing right away. It took several hours. The film was also never in the 'coming soon' list, it just appeared. I know this worried several people since Bel Ami has not appeared on the 'coming soon' list. My test showed the films do not update right at midnight but it's still worth checking if you plan to watch Bel Ami at 9pm PST like I am. ;) If you are going to be more rational, the film will be ready for you to watch instantly at a normal hour on May 4th.

iTunes viewers: 
The film will update May 4th at midnight. Only bummer is the download time. It'll take me 1.5 hours to download but those times change depending on your internet speed. Since I'm on the west coast, this isn't bad for me but I know it's a tough one for east coasters.

Cable viewers:
You need to check this chart to see if your cable company is on here. If it is, there's a good chance you can view Bel Ami immediately at midnight on May 4th. Read carefully because some companies (like mine, AT&T Uverse) only let you see VOD on the theatrical release date (June 8th).



At midnight on May 4th, I'll put up a spoiler post but really I think it'll be a "Let's go ape sh*t about how amazing DuRob was" post. Show your support for Rob's long awaited film and check it out all weekend. I already know I'm going to be breaking the bank for the month of May with those $9.99 rentals. Rob's worth every penny.

Now about that behind-the-scenes footage. I'm hoping we see more of these in the Bel Ami DVD extras because I'm forever fascinated by filmmaking. I also get a kick out of seeing Rob "come back" after being in character. You can always tell when he's with us again. :)

Roberts Patinsons {giggle} (doesn't matter we get what it means)

RobPattzNews contacted the orgainisers for more information they were told "they can't release screening dates or any additional information, until an announcement on a world premiere is made. They are hoping it will come soon, and as part of the Toronto Film Festival lineup."

The full schedule for that festival is to be released August 23rd (so hopefully not too long more to wait for news).

Robert Pattinson and Holly Grainger to Re-unite?

We heard rumblings of this last week... but it looks to be confirmed. Holly Grainger (Charlie in The Bad Mother's Handbook) will be joining Rob once again for Bel Ami. Let the rumours begin!



BelAmiFilm.com has received confirmation that Holliday (Holly Grainger) has indeed been cast as Suzanne as we first reported last week.

Robert Pattinson fans will recall Holliday (Holly) Grainger from The Bad Mother’s Handbook, she starred opposite him in 2007 as pregnant teen Charlie Cooper. We are very excited about this addition to the cast. As we reported before:

In the script, the character of Suzanne is Mme Rousset (Kristin Scott-Thomas) and Rousset’s (Colm Meaney) young daughter and is pivotal to the story. Young Suzanne Rousset is closely involved with Robert Pattinson’s character of Georges Duroy in Bel Ami.

TOPP met Robert Pattinson

What is it like to meet one of the most popular movie stars?

Friday January 22nd. TOPP reporter Stine Hartman got to chat with a hugely popular teen idol in London.

The 23 years old ”Twilight” favorite, Robert Pattinson, who in a few years have risen from a relatively unknown ”Harry Potter” actor to be mentioned side by side with the biggest stars in Hollywood, is the hot topic at the moment and on Thursday he took time off from his busy day to be interviewed.

Many of you will probably be envious as you now get to hear that we have met the RPattz in person, but we are saving the interview for the next issue of the magazine.

What we now want to hear is how it really was like to meet Robert in real life.

- He is deadly handsome; even though his face almost disappeared in the heavy facial hair he has now. He almost looked like a guy who had lived in the forest for a couple of months, but was still very attractive. He is no diva and seems to be like the guy next door where he sat next to me drinking one diet coke after another, admits Stine to topp.no



- At the beginning he seemed very tired. This was after all his only day off for a while now as he goes straight into filming Bel Ami, which premieres next year. But he was able to promise us steamy hot scenes with both Uma Thurman and Christina Ricci, explains Hartmann.

- He wore very casual clothing – woolen sweater, black jeans, sneakers and a cap and didn’t really seem to care that much about fashion. However he could reveal that he did like Marc Jacobs a lot. A plus for me who sat there with my brand new Marc Jacobs! He smiled when I said that I liked Marc Jacobs a lot too, reveals Topps reporter to topp.no

- But unfortunately we were not allowed to take pictures of him or ask questions about his private life, but I still managed to pry a couple of things out of him, says Stine.

You can read about if he is a romantic or not and how he picks up a girl in the next issue of Topp…

Simon Fuller to be Executive Producer on Robert Pattinson's "Bel Ami"

The impresario Simon Fuller, who created the Spice Girls and now works with Victoria Beckham in fashion and her husband David in football, is to make his move into the Hollywood film industry. Fuller will be the executive producer of a feature film starring the young British heartthrob Robert Pattinson, known to his legion of young female fans as "RPattz".

Fuller will oversee the film adaptation of Guy de Maupassant's erotic novel Bel Ami. Pattinson will star as a young man who rises to the top of Parisian society in the 1890s, via the bed-chambers of the city's most powerful women. Pattinson is best known for his appearance in last year's romantic fantasy Twilight and for the part of Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
