STURRIDGE TOOK FILM ROLE FROM PATTINSON ROBERT PATTINSON's best friend TOM STURRIDGE has the TWILIGHT star to thank for his latest movie role - the newcomer persuaded the film's producers to let him audition after seeing a script they sent to his pal.
Actor Sturridge has landed a role in upcoming picture Waiting For Forever opposite Rachel Bilson, but movie bosses originally wanted Pattinson to star in the romantic tale.
Sturridge reveals he found the discarded script on the floor while he was staying at his friend's apartment and he was convinced he could play the part better than the Brit superstar - so he rang his agent and begged for an audition.
He tells the New York Daily News, "I saw the script on the floor of Rob's apartment when I was staying on his sofa. I thought to myself, 'I could do this better than he could,' so I called up my agent the next morning .. They were kind enough to let me audition and apparently they saw something in me." The movie's producer Trevor Albert reveals he was shocked to hear from Sturridge, because he couldn't understand how the actor knew about the movie. He adds, "We got a call from his agent who told us Tom loved the script, and we were like, 'We don't remember sending him one.' Finally, we were worn down and just said, 'All right, let's let him come in.'"
