NEW Robert Pattinson Junket Pic & Short Interview With BILD

NEW Robert Pattinson Junket Pic & Short Interview With BILD

OH HOT DAMN



From BILD (Translated by Olive in our comments)

"Now don't forget to breathe!

Thousands of girls screaming for Him outside the Berlinale Palast. And BILD sitting inside - very close to Robert Pattinson (28).

During his Berlin trip, the Hollywood star took time for an interview. He was tired, betrayed by the rings under his eyes - his busy schedule left him barely a breather. With coffee and chewing gum he kept himself awake.

He has grown a beard (looking good with it!), His hair tousled, he wears sneakers, T-shirt, open shirt: Mr. Sexy down to earth!

BILD-question about his new film "Life" (opening on October 1st), in which he plays the photographer of iconic star James Dean († 24). Whether the role has changed his relationship with photographers? "Today, people only want to see a star in lousy light. At the time it was different, " Pattinson says.

This is the keyword! Fancy a snapshot? "Yes," grins the vampire from the "Twilight" movies and snaps with the phone. At the sight of our Selfies he himself is astonished: "I still have to get used to my blond beard!"

No wonder: For his role as photographer Dennis Stock, he was completely shaved, the hair nicely parted."

Thanks Nancy for the heads up

NEW INTERVIEW: Robert Pattinson Tells NWZ About Working With Cronenberg, Herzog & Corbijn

UPDATE: A better translation has been added

Another new interview with Rob though it sounds like maybe they had a roundtable because it's a bit similar to the previous one.

The earlier interview has been updated so have another read of that one HERE

Imitation of James Dean.

Robert Pattinson is present at this year´s Berlinale with not one, but two movies. In one of them he plays the photographer of James Dean. In our interview the former vampire-star tells how he used to perceive the Hollywood legend. 

Berlin. At the luxurious Hotel de Rome in the heart of Berlin, hidden away in a parlor behind the lobby, Robert Pattinson gives interviews for his Berlinale-movie “Life” on Monday. Full beard, tousled hair, on the table in front of him a bottle of Coke. Before we get started on the first question, the 28 year-old quickly pops a stick of gum into his mouth. 

In Anton Corbijn`s “Life” Pattinson plays the young photographer Dennis Stock, who discovered James Dean before he had his big break-through in Hollywood. Stock snapped the famous picture of James Dean walking down rainy Times Square in New York with a cigarette between his lips and a popped-up collar. In this interview with German press agency dpa Pattinson talks about his own James Dean-phase and his heartthrob-image. 

Q: James Dean is one oft the big icons of our time. What is your image of him? 

RP: I think every actor at some point goes through a James Dean-obsession. When I was 16, 17 years old you were practically always imitating James Dean, no matter what the role was… I think James Dean liked people looking at him. But there are other actors who don´t exactly know why they became actors (laughs). I think I´m rather one of those. 

Q: What did you do when you imitated Dean? 

RP: It´s mostly about body language. For example, something like this (he props his elbow on his thigh and briefly rests his head on his hand). Whoever saw me pretending to be James Dean probably wondered what I was doing! 

Q: Since the end of the Twilight Saga you´ve worked with directors like David Cronenberg, Werner Herzog and now Anton Corbijn. Do you think of Twilight as a door-opener for new projects or is it more like a curse because it gave you the image of a heartthrob? 

RP: It really only ever brought good things for me. Everybody has to deal with something. There´s something positive about people accusing you of being type-cast; it helps you to try and be casted for different things. It energizes you, in a way. It´s fun to refute such an image.

NEW PICS + Robert Pattinson talks Idol's Eye character, Tom Sturridge in his clothes & More! "I want to continue doing ambitious projects that excite me"

A couple of new pics of Rob posing with journalists during the LA press junket for The Rover and 2 interviews from the round table interview. Several answers are new but many are the same as previously posted interviews in english. We included those links at the bottom if you want to check out those older interviews. It's fun to reread Rob anyway :)


(From express.de)

express.de, translation using Google and Reverso:
Why did you sell your mansion in Los Angeles?

She was much too big for me. I'm not old enough to toil with homeowner's things like broken water pipes.

Where do you live now?

I was homeless for six months after the sale. I borrowed houses from people when they were not in the city. Now I've found a home in the Hollywood Hills that I rent. It is not too large. I barely have furniture. Some of them are from the previous tenant. The only thing I brought with me, are air mattresses. In which I sleep. (Tink: With me. Shhhhhhh) 

You have earned millions and can afford expensive equipment.

I'm not materialistic. The only thing I treat myself, are old guitars. I have 17 in my collection. My showpiece is a Gibson J100 acoustic guitar from the year 1943. Other bells and whistles such as designer clothes I do not care. However, I should go to buy clothes.

Why?

I can not find most of them. That's why I wear the jacket I'm wearing, continuously for the past two weeks. My stuff should be in any case either in a rental warehouse in Los Angeles or in my London apartment. I rather think the latter. I've just seen pictures of my old roommate Tom Sturridge, running around in my pants and shirt ... (laughs).

(Tink: Translations are always hilarious. Case in point, this bizarre change of subject LOL)

They also suffer from depression. Are you in therapy?

I would really like to try, but just the thought of it makes me nervous. I think I am a person who needs his emotional ups and downs. I'm not manic-depressive, and I cross my psycho-valleys pretty quickly.

Robert Pattinson talks about wanting to work with directors, Quentin Tarantino and Jacques Audiard

Robert Pattinson talks about wanting to work with directors, Quentin Tarantino and Jacques Audiard

From europe1 (translated with Reverso with minor editing by us. They had Rob as an American actor...OK):

CANNES - The actor pursues his metamorphosis by deviating from blockbusters. Present in Cannes for two films in competition, he confided in Europe1. 

Portrait. Robert Pattinson is unrecognizable in his new roles. This year, the English actor known for his role in Twilight is present in Cannes for two films in competition. 

At first, Maps To The Stars, the latest David Cronenberg, together with Julianne Moore. Robert Pattinson embodies a limousine chauffeur, whose dream is to become a scriptwriter.
The actor is also in The Rover by David Michôd, in which Robert Pattinson plays a pursued criminal. 

New direction. Robert Pattinson's career takes a new direction since the last two years. The actor played a young billionaire in Cosmopolis, also by David Cronenberg. A collaboration which reveals him to the eyes of the directors of art films.
"I am open to everything."  

"I do not believe that I really changed, I just have a lot of luck," the actor to the microphone of Europe1 confides.
"It is incredible that happens to me, it is completely crazy," assures the actor, who does not however close the door in the big productions, in particular in the continuation(suite) of the legend Twilight:
"I am opened to everything! But I am too old now. Having said that, if it is Quentin Tarantino who directs it, I shall be obliged to say yes!" 

Jacques Audiard. "I do not choose any more of my films based on money or prosperity, and that makes me really very happy", pursues Robert Pattinson, who dreams to collaborate with Jacques Audiard. A change of direction which does not prevent the teenagers from continuing to worship the actor. On Sunday, some waited for him several hours in front of the hotel where their idol gave interviews.

It's clear and has been for a bit now that Rob's professional path is one that allows him to work with great directors. Hopefully, if he keeps mentioning Audiard, he'll get the opportunity to work with him, a favorite of Rob's. Click HERE if you missed an earlier interview that Rob talked about his director plan!

NEW INTERVIEW: "There Are 20 Filmmakers I Want To Work With" ~ Robert Pattinson

NEW INTERVIEW: "There Are 20 Filmmakers I Want To Work With" ~ Robert Pattinson 

Rob spoke to MetroNews and spoke about working with Harmony Korine and Olivier Assayas this year and a lot more.
Check out the translation of the interview below.
I used google translate to translate it but will update when there's a better translation ;)


 
 Robert Pattinson: "Everyone is a little crazy in Hollywood"

INTERVIEW - Far from "Twilight" actor Robert Pattinson English continues his journey to the land of auteur cinema. 
He is in Cannes to present two films: the road movie "The Rover", the Australian David Michod and "Maps to the Stars", the Canadian master David Cronenberg.

Robert, you are in Cannes to present but not not one but two films. Is this a coincidence?
This is a nice surprise, although I admit that I really wanted that The Rover in particular is shown here. Actually we missed all the other festivals in the hope to be here. It has even staked everything on Cannes because it is the most beautiful in the world. In particular for a movie as different as this one.

As Maps to the stars, this is a film constructed outside the Hollywood system. Is this an indicator of the direction you want your career after Twilight adventure?
What guides me is the desire to work with a director. I realized that if I worked with the best in the world, there were chances that I am happy with the result (smiles). I have work experience really satisfactory. There are twenty filmmakers with whom I want to work and I just started. The next? This year Harmony Korine and Olivier Assayas. Then James Gray in January. We met, we became friends. And waited to find the right project.

In your place, many young players try to land a superhero role, or at least a role in a big franchise. Have you considered?
I never auditioned for that kind of film. And I'm not even sure I know how to make a superhero. If I have my place in this world (he thinks). It doesn't mean that I wouldn't do a big studio film at some point. Besides I look full. But I really struggled to find myself there, as an actor.

In The Rover, you play a guy a little simpleton, which we do not know much except that he is the scapegoat of his brother. How did you get the role?
On first reading, I heard his voice in my head. That of a guy who talks so low force being told to close his mouth. (laughs). So much so that every word that comes out of his mouth is suffering. It was great fun though watching the first cut, some of my dialogue was inaudible!

You are also the generic Maps to the stars, David Cronenberg. Hollywood depicts it is it as black as you know?
I've always had a good time in Hollywood. Actually I like her dirty side as long as I do not spend the whole year, that I do not become a caricature as we see in the film. Remain an observer: I can tell you that there is a lot of weird people out there.

You often come across?
All the time! Actually I am perhaps now ...

Do not tell me you sell your stool on the Internet as the young actors of the movie! 
Ah if I could ... (laughs) Frankly everyone in Hollywood is a little crazy. The actors are in essence, if we consider that we are asked to play the variety of human emotions, sometimes in the same film. I assure you that you will struggle to meet more people dingo! (laughs)

PREVIEW: NEW Interview ~ Robert Pattinson Talks To Sport & Style

 PREVIEW: NEW Interview ~ Robert Pattinson Talks To Sport & Style

Check out this preview of a new interview with Rob that will be featured in France's "Sport & Style" that will be out on Saturday.
From the preview it looks like it'll be a good one. He talks about wanting to be a musician, what his idea of elegance is and (my favourite part) he sounds SO excited for "The Rover".

Check out the translation below. I used Google Translate so please forgive me if it sounds a bit off here and there. I'm sure you'll get the jist of it though.
I can't wait to read the full interview!



Robert Pattinson "I wanted to be a musician"

Amateur boxing, Columbia Rob Pattinson inspired codes of honor of the noble art and elegance Arsenal to manage his career. Meeting in Los Angeles with the new face of Dior Homme fragrance.

Sprawled on the sofa in the suite 111 Beverly Hills Hotel in Hollywood, eyes unfocused , Rob Pattinson is visibly tired. Fault to a party that lasted the day . However, he welcomes guests with respect and sincerity by suddenly leaping to his feet . Baseball cap backwards, black shirt, jeans and sneakers , Diet Coke in hand, Robert Thomas Pattinson has very little to do with Edward Cullen, the avatar of the Twilight film series .
At age 27 , Rob is more than just English actor who conquered Hollywood, or even any international star of TV series . The Londoner reserved , cultured and elegant became a global icon adored by millions of fans . And above all extremely cumbersome - - comfortable but temporary status that the actor is changing slowly and very cleverly : roles against type ( after Maupassant Bel Ami , The Rover David Michôd ) adoption of a "father" film in the person of David Cronenberg ( Cosmopolis in 2012 and a new film in preparation) and noticed in the fashion world this fall by becoming the new face of Dior Homme fragrance entry . A beam consistent evidence that tells us that we should not miss Rob Pattinson when called Sport & Style. Here he is again sitting in our turn to play vampires to elicit information ...

When did you preview your interest in acting and expressive potential it represents ?
I started late in the drama club because I was very shy child . It was revealing: it was the first time I confronted my fears and the adrenaline rush was intense. Then there was the first time I had the feeling of " building " something. It was for Little Ashes in 2008 , a strange film where I played Salvador Dalí. I really wanted the credibility of the character and therefore my performance .

You've also been a musician ?
Originally, I wanted to be a musician . This had also been the case until Twilight. At that time, I was shooting with a group in pubs around London. We played folk- pop but I 've always been more soul - Otis Redding, Van Morrison - that really folk .

What is elegance for you as an actor?
It's a matter of balance between magnetism, will , behavior , gestures , pace . But elegance is also listening and speaking .

And style ?
This is a way for me to speak , or rather a means of expression . Style is often seen as kind of cosmetic , a way of hiding in a suit. I find instead that true style is to first have a good knowledge of who we are and also very honest with yourself.

Is it difficult to find good movies when you are a superstar ?
Yes, because it is difficult to know what the public perceives you. Today, the public knows a lot about the actors outside of their profession. The choice of a movie is the intrinsic interest of the script, but also on what is almost a personal manifesto choose this character is me!

Why did you choose The Rover David Michod which will be out soon ? To go against the grain of your public image ?
Probably a little , it's part of the equation. I really wanted it , I auditioned twice! The script was beautiful , I 'm hooked. The story is fantastic, very original , told in a very innovative way. It was something that seemed very different from everything else and I wanted to be there.

New Robert Pattinson interview with Premiere magazine: Talks Cosmopolis, french filmmakers, Twilight and more

New Robert Pattinson interview with Premiere magazine: Talks Cosmopolis, french filmmakers, Twilight and more



Premiere (France) has more of their interview with Rob! All new stuff. Click here for french speakers and for the rest of us...it's a google translation for now. We'll update if a better one is available.

UPDATE: Better translation:

 P: Is there some part of you that is thrilled to surprise your Twilight fans who would see Cosmopolis?
RP: When my casting in Cosmopolis was announced, I saw many of them buying Don DeLillo's book. And it doesn't shock them at all that I'm playing a role like this one. On the contrary, I feel like they want to see us succeed, for us to be successful after the saga. They want us to be loved and respected. They're aren't fans like any others, they might not all be movie fanatics, but I can feel in them a desire to become one. They're interested in what we do, even if it's an usual movie like Cosmopolis. Actors that are in popular hits or franchises, often feel like they have to do things that would please 'this' audience. But I think that they underestimate their spectators. I know that Twilight fans want to adapt themselves. If you've played in Transformers, it doesn't mean you have to limit yourself to that all your life.

P: Cosmopolis press promise to be ... interesting. In hope that all the interviews won't focus only on one particular scene.
RP: I don't see which scene they could focus on that would reduce/narrow down the movie ...

P: I do ...
RP: You mean the check-up scene, I guess? Having said that now, it's a pretty good promo for the movie: "So, you get your prostate checked in Cosmopolis?" *laughs* As soon as I have an erotic scene, the most common you could imagine, I know I'll hear about it.

P: In Cosmopolis, there's one where a taser is involved?
RP: The one in the hotel .. We shot that one in one take. Patricia (McKenzie), the actress, was really at ease with her body. When we had to rehearse the scene, she almost took all her clothes off. I just stood there in my underwear, so embarrassed! After the scene was done, I went to see the cameraman and asked him: "Is it me or what just happened was really intense? I almost felt like I really had sex!" The sex scene in History of Violence was already incredible. I don't know why but David Cronenberg is really talented for that. It's a surprising specialty for a director, but it's his.

P: David Lynch is pretty good too for that. It's funny because when you see Lynch and Cronenberg, the first thing that comes to mind isn't: "I'm sure those guys shoot amazing sex scenes."
RP: It might be due to the fascination that David has with the human body. Even in a movie like Videodrome, he sexualizes everything - the orifice that James Woods has on his belly looks a lot like a vagina. And I can really see David thinking about it and tell himself: "MMMh, I like that." We see less and less filmmakers having enough confidence that would let them flaunt and dig their obsessions. It's like Tarantino and women's feet. It's his thing, he likes that and thus going to put it iin all his movies. I'm not attracted to feet but when they film those of Bridget Fonda in Jacky Brow, it's sexy.

P: In Cosmopolis, you get a visit from Juliette Binoche in the limp. She uses the space in a very creative way ...
RP: Originally, the sex scene with Juliette was supposed to happen in a hotel room, but found it more interesting for it to happen in the limo. You have to ask yourself a question: how to you film, with success, a sex scene in a limo? Well, you end up bumping yourself everywhere in the car *laughs*. The worst is that I met Juliette Binoche, who is one of my favorite actresses, right before filming the scene. And 5 minutes later, we were writhing in the limo ... Very strange. But yes, it was more appropriate in that space.

P: What about Mathieu Amalric, the other French of the movie?
RP: He's amazing. I'm sad he's mostly filmed in wide shots because you can't really enjoy the crazy facial expressions he did. Does he work a lot in France?

P: Not enough. But he directs too.
RP: It doesn't surprise me. By the way, did you see the trailer for Rust and Bone? If only Audiard decided to film in English .. He's probably the biggest director active, able of making movies that touch the general public while still being, indisputably, art. The performances in his movies are the best, his action scenes are the best ... Not a lot of filmmakers can reach his level, except for maybe James Gray, with whom I dream of working.

Cosmopolis Review: 5 out of 5 stars and Robert Pattinson talks working with Cronenberg again!

UPDATE: The interview is up now HERE. SUCH a good read :D



You know the drill about Google translations but we DO know that Les In Rocks gave Cosmopolis 5 out of 5 stars. No translation needed for that. ;) Additionally, there is much talk about Rob's interview in the actual magazine. Marnye translated an excerpt from the interview via Smurfette:

Excerpt from the Les Inrocks intvw: He says he's going to make a movie about The Band, "a wonderful script about songwriting"; a thriller with a beautiful script but without director so far, several French directors are in line for the job. He confirms another film with Cronenberg but doesn't know when shooting will start, it will be Cronenberg's first American movie, and should be very strange.

How exciting that Rob has all these projects lined up? And with Viggo shaking Rob's hand inside the On The Road premiere theater, maybe that Cronenberg film is the one we posted about HERE. Seems likely, right? We'll see what the full interview tells us.

• [Cosmopolis is] puzzling, annoying, surprising, exciting.
• [David Cronenberg's] film is like no other, is a signature elegance, its willingness to move away from Hollywood is constant.
• Cosmopolis is the lament of the crisis.

David Cronenberg & Don DeLillo Talk Robert Pattinson To Le Monde

Le Monde spoke to David Cronenberg & Don DeLillo and they mention Robert Pattinson.
Again I used Google to translate so take the translation loosely but I think you'll get the gist of it. (I hope ;-})



Why did you, as a director choose to adapt a novel?

David Cronenberg: First of all laziness, to write an original script can take years. Cosmopolis, that took me six days. A record for me. It was very strange. The first day, I transcribed the dialogues, in a direct format scenario. The following day, I added the details of the action. And that's all. I read, wondering if this was a movie. It was. With the structure of dialogues. Don DeLillo's dialogues are unique. They have a specific rhythm. They are totally realistic, but at the same time stylish.

The dialogues are crucial?

David Cronenberg: They're a key element of the scenario, the only really found on the screen. Everything else changes once in production. The dialogues give you an idea of ​​the quality of the film. Are the characters are interesting? How do they interact?

This approach to the scenario may seem surprising from an author well versed in the genre of film?

David Cronenberg: We often think that cinema is a visual art. I personally think that this is a very complex alloy. For me, the essence of cinema is a face that speaks. That's what we film the most. I heard that the last twenty-two minutes of the film, where there is none other than Paul Giamatti and Robert Pattinson in a room, this is theater. I don't think so. In theater, you wouldn't have close-ups, no camera movement, no changes in light. This is the cinema. Without close-ups there is no cinema.

And Robert Pattinson?

Don DeLillo: The character he plays ​is very close to the one in the novel. I haven't seen the Twilight series, in which he acts, but I impressed my two 13 year old nieces, saying that Britain's Robert Pattinson would play in a film adapted from one of my books. They show me respect now! (Kate: I bet they do. Now is the time to suck up to Uncle Don)

David Cronenberg: Casting is an occult art. It is a matter of intuition. There are objective factors, though. The character is 28 years old, he is American. So you need someone who is that age, and that can have a perfect American accent. The film is a co-production between France and Canada. Also, I could use only one American actor, and for me it was Paul Giamatti. I could take a Briton, however.

Then of course there is the presence of the actor. He needs to be able to embody this character who is particularly complex, cruel, brutal, vulgar, in a sense, and very sophisticated and vulnerable at the same time, naive and childish? To make people believe that such a young person has achieved so much, takes strength and charisma. And he's in every scene. This doesn't mean he must be beautiful, but it must be pleasant to look at him for an hour and a half. (Kate: Oh believe me it's more than pleasant to look at Rob for an hour an a half ;-))
Finally, he must have a certain notoriety. Since the film costs a certain budget, you need to be able to excite your financial partners a little. (Kate: And I'm pretty sure that Rob excites financial partners (along with everyone else) more than a little.)
With all these constraints, the list of actors is relatively short. And I started thinking about Rob soon enough.
