NEW INTERVIEW: "He's A Really Nice Person, And He's Fun To Be Around" ~ Robert Pattinson On David Cronenberg

NEW INTERVIEW: "He's A Really Nice Person, And He's Fun To Be Around" ~ Robert Pattinson On David Cronenberg

Well we all know how well Rob & David get on. In this interview with Free people he chats about working with David again on Maps To The Stars, jokes about how his next limo movie will see him being run over by one and working as part of an ensemble.

TORONTO -- For Robert Pattinson, working with a director like David Cronenberg is an emphatic departure from the Twilight world of brooding, sexy vampires.

But then again, the English actor's role in Maps to the Stars does represent a certain redundancy. He is again placed in a limousine, where he spent almost the entirety of Cronenberg's Cosmopolis as a billionaire financier on a slow road to ruin. This time, Pattinson is in the driver's seat as a Hollywood wannabe actor-screenwriter, who at one point is contemplating joining the Church of Scientology "as a career move."

The Free Press spoke with Pattinson about Round 2 with Cronenberg:

FP: So, again with the limo sex?

RP: Yeah, it's weird. Apparently, Cosmopolis was just the audition for this one. I'm thinking that's what I'm going to use as my head shot: me leaning out of the limo window.

FP: David Cronenberg likes to use certain actors, such as Viggo Mortensen and Jeremy Irons, more than once. Do you have to have a certain rapport to be a member of that club?

RP: I think it was just luck at the beginning. I really get on with him. He's a really nice person, and he's fun to be around. I did consider that he likes to use the same cast for years and years, so that's my welfare cheque.

 

FP: It must be gratifying that he sees you playing roles as different as a solitary, somewhat unhinged billionaire in Cosmopolis and as a hungry Hollywood wannabe in Maps to the Stars.

RP: Very different characters, yes, but both in limos and both in black suits. That's got to be the through line. I'm thinking in the next one, I'm going to be run over by a limo.

FP: You live in Los Angeles, so do you recognize the reality of this movie?

RP: Definitely. Some of the characters seem to be archetypes, but I've met a lot of them. I remember certain scenes, like the scenes with all the young actors when they're all bitching about each other. That really reminded me of when I first started coming to L.A., before camera phones, when you would go to nightclubs and there would be really famous 15-year-olds and you could see them openly drinking and it was so weird. There was like a different set of rules. But now it's not the same anymore, because kids in bars get found out immediately. But I remember coming from England and seeing that, because I was still not being let into clubs in England when I was 20 and here, there were kids drinking!

FP: Are you more comfortable in an ensemble as opposed to carrying the movie as in Cosmopolis?

RP: On something like this, there's obviously a lot less pressure, so I like it a lot. When you don't have to drive the movie forward, it's not as hard a decision to make.

"I Like The Way He Runs His Sets: They Are So Comfortable & I Feel More Confident On Them"~ Robert Pattinson Talks David Cronenberg To The Provance

"I Like The Way He Runs His Sets: They Are So Comfortable & I Feel More Confident On Them"~ Robert Pattinson Talks David Cronenberg To The Provance

The Province interviewed Rob at the Toronto Film Festival. He spoke about working with David, why he feels so comfortable on his sets and lots more.
It's a great read and I also think the author maybe a wee bit Robsessed. Who can blame her, right?

TORONTO – For a man who emerged as the fully formed and fully fanged vampire heartthrob in the Twilight saga, Robert Pattinson almost seems too fully dimensional, too human, too real to be locker pin-up material. But he’s managing.

The British actor who played Edward opposite Kristen Stewart’s Bella Swan says he’s learned to adapt to a complete lack of control when it comes to public perception, which is one reason why he loves working with David Cronenberg so much.

Pattinson played the lead in Cronenberg’s 2012 outing, a limo-bound narrative about greed, corruption and self-contained narcissism called Cosmopolis. And he returns to Cronenberg’s bizarre landscapes in Maps to the Stars, a truly odd Oedipal yarn woven through a Hollywood loom.

Pattinson plays a limo driver to various celebrities in this new effort that also stars Mia Wasikowska, Julianne Moore and John Cusack, and while he says his character, Jerome, was relatively blank on the page, he knew he could trust Cronenberg to let him grope for a while, and get a good feel for what was needed.

“David is very funny,” Pattinson says. “I just like him as a person, and it helps that I really like his work. I like the way he runs his sets: They are so comfortable and I feel more confident on them.”

Pattinson says Cronenberg never panics when faced with the unknown. He allows the story and the characters to evolve organically.

“On Cosmopolis, I was terrified because it was such a wordy script and I hadn’t done any rehearsals, and I hadn’t had any talks with him about the character until the Sunday before the Monday we started shooting. And I tell you I nearly had a nervous breakdown because I assumed he thought I knew exactly what I was going to do and just pull it out…. “ Pattinson laughs, with a sweet little twinkle.

NEW Interview: Robert Pattinson Talks LA, 'Maps To The Stars', Working With Auteur Directors & More In Today's UK Independent

NEW Interview: Robert Pattinson Talks LA, 'Maps To The Stars', Working With Auteur Directors & More In Today's UK Independent

Rob spoke the the UK's Independent newspaper while at the Toronto Film Festival earlier this month. The interview is in today's paper and you can read the transcript of it below.



Maps To The Stars is also their Film of The Week


Transcript:

Maps To The Stars is the title of the new David Cronenberg film starring Robert Pattinson. It refers to the Hollywood cartography that informs tourists of where to find the homes of their fabourite actors.

Anyone buying one of these plans will be disappointed if they are looking for the home of Britain's most famous vampire. Last year the actor sold his mansion in Griffith Park, near the Hollywood sign in central Los Angeles, saying he was too young to be tied to such a lavish property and instead wanted to lay low and live life to his needs rather than his means.

"The house was amazing," he says of the abode he sold for $6.37m (£3.9m). "I wasn't really thinking when I got it. I had been living in and out of hotels, and when you have money for he first time." When he says money, he means a mind-boggling amount. He reportedly received $20m for the final part of Twilight, the vampire saga that made him a global name, and made his private life public fodder. Pattinson says selling the house is part of a general disassociation with Hollywood. "If you are the kind of person who needs to to be pushed into doing something, Hollywood is not the right place to be, so I think I might be done with Los Angeles."

We meet on the day on the Toronto Film Festival of Maps To The Stars and there is a yearning for Barnes, West London, where he grew up. His Dad imported vintage cars from America, and his mother worked for a modelling agency, a profession Pattinson entered just before he hit his teens. "I think I need to spend more time in London, or just move around a bit more. I've been in LA for six or seven years and it's weird. The more you stay, especially as an actor , the more you think you'll be missing out on something by leaving, but you are not really. It's a fun city, but you are permanently on holiday. I feel like I've been on holiday since I was 22."

It seems the 28 year old has enough of the focus being on his romantic life rather than his career. His relationship with Twilight co-star Kristen Stewart dominated headlines before a very public split, and now there's endless speculation that he's going out with every girl who just happens to be in the same room. The fascination with his love life must be frustrating because, since Twilight ended, not many column inches have been expanded on the impressive resume hes been building.

In addition to twice working with Croneneberg, he gave one of his best performances as a left-for-dead armed robber in David Michod's Australian outback thriller The Rover and he's just finished playing TE Lawrence for Werner Herzog and photographer Dennis Stock for Anton Corbijn. On the horizon is an adaptation of The Lost City Of Z, to be directed by James Gray.

The impressive list has come about because Pattinson has been seeking out auteurs: "In the past two years, I've done stuff just for the director and not really thought much about the script," he says. "Now I'm swinging it back a little, trying to get a medium between the two."

He's thankful to Cronenberg for taking a chance on him, especially when people wondered if all he had to offer was a blank stare. "Working with Cronenberg just opened stuff up. People approached you in a different way. Now I"ve done other things and it kind of works on a bit of a roll, working with auteur-y guys."

There is an odd link between Cosmopolis and Maps to the Stars, in that in Cosmopolis he played a financial hotshot who went around New York in his limo for pretty much the whole movie, whereas in Maps he plays a limo driver who wants to be a screenwriter. Pattinson quips, “It’s a bit weird. It’s like Cosmopolis was the audition for this: ‘Well he fits into a limo, why look for someone else?’”

Maps To The Stars is about the oddballs that populate Hollywood. Pattinson has an affair with a PA (Mia Wasikowska) and then memorably has sex in a car with her boss, Havana - Julianne Moore won the best actress gong at Cannes for her portrayal of an actress whose best days are behind her. It's a Hollywood that Pattinson knows all too well; "I've met characters that are pretty similar. Everyone's saying the films biting, but I think it's sympathetic to a host of characters. Women like Havana: in reality people would despise her, they don't have friends for a reason, but I don't think anyone comes out of the movie hating her and that's testament to Julianne. It's a bunch of weirdos who spend time self-obsessing and talking about it afterwards."

The actor says he's not exactly in a position to talk; " I self-obsess a lot. When I'm doing interviews I'm always waiting for some stupid remark to come out." When he first entered the room, his opening gambit was, "I'm so bad at doing press junkets," said with a glint in his eye that gave the impression he thinks much of it is a charade.

"I used to be so dumb in interviews; try to make jokes all the time, and everyone is thinking, 'this guy is a moron, he's just been saying dumb stuff for years and years'."

Herzog is a director he's long admired and he jumped at the chance to play  TE Lawrence in his Gertrrude Bell biography Queen Of The Desert, starring Nicole Kidman as the British archaeologist who helped draw the Iraq/Jordan border at the turn of the 19th century. "It's sort of close to the real guy, it's certainly not Lawrence of Arabia-like," he says. "Its a small part as well," which suits his just fine: "It's quite nice doing small parts. The film isn't totally reliant on what I do, so I get to work with who I want and it's not my fault if it doesn't make any money."

INTERVIEW: “I Thought It Was Hilarious, And It Was Sort Of Dangerous" ~ Robert Pattinson On The 'Maps To The Stars' Script

INTERVIEW: “I Thought It Was Hilarious, And It Was Sort Of Dangerous" ~ Robert Pattinson On The 'Maps To The Stars' Script

Rob chatted to MSN at TIFF and spoke about the Maps To The Stars script, working with Mia Wasikowska and more.

As a freelance entertainment journalist/writer/hack you can tell how valuable an actor’s time is – at least to the studio offering him up for interview – by the amount of time you are given with him. Other factors include how many people he has around him and whether or not you are asked not to ask any personal questions.

In the case of Robert Pattinson, he is pretty valuable. While I am not asked to refrain from personal inquiries – the publicists know I don’t go in for that s*** – the former star of the Twilight series is having his time here at TIFF divvied into four-minute increments, such is the demand.

The movie Pattinson is here to promote is Maps to the Stars. It is his second film with Canadian director David Cronenberg after 2012’s Cosmopolis. He was the lead in that film but has a secondary role in Maps, playing Jerome, a Hollywood limo driver with screenwriting ambitions. Mia Wasikowska (Only Lovers Left Alive) plays Agatha, a disfigured young woman with a secret connection to a high-powered Hollywood family, who employs Jerome to drive her around.

Maps to the Stars is written by Bruce Wagner. A former actor who co-starred with Maps co-star John Cusack in 1986’s One Crazy Summer, Wagner has gone on to become a respected novelist and screenwriter. He also used to work as a limo driver, making him, for all intents and purposes, some version of Jerome.

“I thought it was hilarious, and it was sort of dangerous,” Pattinson says of Wagner’s screenplay. “I quite liked the fact that - and David liked it as well - he’s this kind, genial, academic man. And then seeing the script, upon two pages of it, it’s so savage and jokes which you really don’t know how they are going to land at all or could have walk-outs quite easily. I just love feeling David’s glee with that.”

Pattinson says he only met Wagner after he had shot “quite a lot of stuff” on the film, which shot in Toronto and Los Angeles.

“But then I sort of talked to David about it because it’s a strange part. On the page he’s kind of a cipher for Bruce and almost a blank on the page. So I didn’t really want to reveal my ignorance.”

As for former model Wasikowska, Pattinson says he has known her “for a really long time, and I’ve seen a lot of her stuff as well. I think she’s a really amazing actress.

“But it’s funny, though. She’s gotten a lot more confident. I don’t know if that’s bad to say, but just seeing her be so funny… And I don’t know. There’s something different that I’ve seen in her that I didn’t realize that it works really well with her personality and skill-set.”

Pattinson will next be seen in Queen of the Desert, a biography of early 20th century explorer Gertrude Bell, played in the film by Nicole Kidman. Pattinson co-stars as Col T.E. Lawrence, a part first essayed by the late Peter O’Toole in 1962’s Lawrence of Arabia. The movie is directed by German legend Werner Herzog (Fitzcarraldo, Rescue Dawn).

Asked about his criteria for picking roles these days, Pattinson admits: “Yeah, I basically have some weird insecurity issues. So I want to take as little as a gamble as possible when doing my jobs. So I basically just try to work with extremely prodigious auteurs, and that’s kind of been my only decision-making process.”

As for screenwriting limo drivers, Pattinson says he has been accosted by several.

“I actually have a few times. Multiple times… Many, many times. Even here!” he says, laughing.

“What do you do?” I ask.

“I always take it,” he says. “I can rip them off later!”
