NEW PIC: Robert Pattinson and Benedict Cumberbatch all smiles at the Vanity Fair Oscar party

Unfortunately these two won't star in The Lost City of Z together (click HERE if you missed the recasting news) but a camera did catch up with Rob and Benedict Cumberbatch at the Vanity Fair Oscar party!

I like this smile Rob is giving. It's making me chuckle.



The happy (and lucky) lady holding the Oscar (and Rob) is Kristina Reed. She won for Best Animated Short Film.

MOVIE NEWS: Robert Pattinson's 'The Lost City Of Z' Aims To Shoot This Summer

MOVIE NEWS: Robert Pattinson's 'The Lost City Of Z' Aims To Shoot This Summer



Earlier in the week we found out the character Robert Pattinson would be playing The Lost City of Z and that it was in Pre-Production. Now in a new interview with The Film Stage producer Dede Gardner mentions that they hope to shoot this summer.

From The Film Stage

As a last question, two of my favorites filmmakers you’ve worked with, James Gray and Terrence Malick, and I’ve heard updates on Lost City of Z. Is that a project still going forward?

I don’t know yet. I’m trying. It’s another one I’m trying. I really love James and really hope [this] summer.

Thanks Susie!

Rob's Life costar, Dane DeHaan, recently shared that he's working with a dialect coach to master James Dean's voice. These tweets today from a London based photography shop, Mr Cad, make us wonder if Rob is picking up a new hobby or doing some Dennis Stock research for Life as well.

Just served Robert Pattinson!!!!!!

That's very cool! Mission: Blacklist won our recent poll for which Rob film you're looking forward to him filming (click HERE to see the results) but Life is my number one. The thought of Rob prepping to play Dennis Stock by, pardon the pun, stocking up on photography gear and learning he craft excites me. From personal experience, Rob's a great photographer. He made sure I got a good picture with him since my hands were vibrating phalanges. But I'm assuming much. Maybe Papa Pattinson asked him to go pick up some film. LOL

Another fun bit of Life news is from the director, Anton Corbijn, who premiered a film at Sundance (A Most Wanted Man). From the NYT:

He was only at Sundance for two days, heading directly to the set of his next production, “Life,” in Toronto. It’s the story of the relationship between James Dean and the Life magazine photographer Dennis Stock (played by Dane DeHaan and Robert Pattinson, respectively). 

We know the film is shooting in February but all the main players clearly getting prepped is just putting a spring in my step. Bring on 1950sRob! It's one of my favorite eras.

Not much else going on with the other films. Benedict Cumberbatch also mentioned prepping for The Lost City of Z (click HERE to read) and stating that it will be his next film. The last word on principal photography was summer 2014. No updates for Mission: Blacklist or The Childhood of a Leader. We are watching out for updates on the latter thought because the director, Brady Corbet, was also at Sundance for The Sleepwalker. Queen of the Desert is still filming and Nicole Kidman and James Franco have been spotted. No word on Rob's schedule on the set. And lastly, and sadly, Hold On To Me was removed from Rob's IMDb page. We removed it from our sidebar but we'll have to wait and see if it resurrects for Rob or turns into Unbound Captives.

Thanks Nancy for the tip!

Robert Pattinson's The Rover trailer coming "soon-ish" + sweet quotes from David Cronenberg & Benedict Cumberbatch!

Robert Pattinson's The Rover trailer coming "soon-ish" + sweet quotes from David Cronenberg & Benedict Cumberbatch! 

We have a mini roundup of some film related news. First up is the eagerly awaited, The Rover.

It's not a whole lot to go on, but this tease from The Rover distributor, A24 Films, is welcomed.

@Suziekew @RPattzgirl soon-ish!

Next, David Cronenberg praised Rob and mentioned Maps To The Stars and more in the newest Toronto Life. Here's a transcript of the direct Rob mention:

"Rob is a really fine actor. He hasn't been recognized that way. We said, let's do more," Cronenberg told me. It takes a veteran's business savvy to enlist a star of Pattinson's stature, though Cronenberg says he likes to repeat his actors because he wants to work with people who are easy, a lot of laughs. "You've got to have a playfulness, a lightness," he says. "Also, not being an asshole or a  drug addict really helps."

These excerpts mention MTTS and the Rob quote:

Lastly, this is a great throwback to Golden Globes 2013. Josh Horowitz was talking to Benedict Cumberbatch and fanboyed over Rob possibly being nearby. It prompted Benedict to admit he was a fan! He's even seen Twilight. Check it out :)



Can't wait for these guys to work together on The Lost City of Z! That's the latest movie news. Queen of the Desert is slated to be Rob's next film to go into production (Dec. 15), followed by Life, Mission: Blacklist and The Lost City of Z by summer 2014. Busy man! We'll keep you posted if there are any changes.
