The above picture has nothing to do with this post but it's HQ and you can see his mipples so I thought I'd slip it in :))
Onto business:
LAiMEy Gossip claims: Amanda Seyfried will reportedly begin work soon on Remember Me costarring Robert Pattinson with whom she presented at the Oscars a couple months ago. Cute. They looked great together, even though he seemed like he wanted to die.
Gozde: *Takes a deep breath* Well, I am calling this rumor: WRONG. But since LAiMEy always gets her rumors from....(God knows where... little birds? Her tush? ) it is not surprising that she'd be wrong.
This rumor started when screendaily.com reported this: Summit Entertainment is presenting four new titles to buyers at Cannes this year including two new Summit productions - a romantic drama starring Twilightsensation Robert Pattinson and a generational love story set in Italy starring Amanda Seyfried.
You can read the rest of the story HERE where it talks about the 2 DIFFERENT movies that Rob and Amanda will star in.
Amanda Bell - The Twilight Examiner had the chance to interview Little Ashes director Paul Morrison. Here are some parts but you should read the whole article. It's very good :)
“We made it in the spirit of . . . just need[ing] to make this film, it’s crying out to be done, without expectations of what will happen to it,” says Paul Morrison, director of Little Ashes about his film. “But I’ve been around long enough to know it’s when you least expect it that good things can happen.”
Little Ashes (which will be released this Friday, May 8, in the United States)(Gozde's note: It is released in UK and Spain as well. For the list of theaters check HERE and HERE:)) has been met with great anticipation. Starring Robert Pattinson, Javier Beltran, Matthew McNulty, and Marina Gatell, the film will present an ephemeral biopic of the life of Salvador Dali – a Spanish artist whose art, some say, is impossibly well done.
As a director, Paul Morrison is known for his work in Wondrous Oblivion, Solomon and Gaenor, and Degas and Pissarro Fall Out. With Little Ashes nearing release, however, his name has practically become house hold.
I had the pleasure of interviewing the thoughtful and intellectual Mr. Morrison, and, after doing so, I am convinced that he is right, “good things can happen” – and to the right sort of people.
About what brought Morrison to the Little Ashes picture, he says it was “[a] great screenplay.” Continues Morrison, it’s “an intimate human story of these three or four people’s relationships at an extraordinary moment in history of social and artistic ferment. Plus, it was about these three exceptional artists, at least one of whom was a hero of mine.”

For Lorca and Dali, I must have seen every up-and-coming young actor who was available in both Spain and the U.K. Originally, Rob read for Lorca, and I was going to cast Dali in Spain. But Rob felt so much more a Dali – the combination of acute intelligence and vulnerability and self-consciousness that the part demanded – that I switched, and brought him back to read for Dali. He was perfect. I never saw anyone in Spain who felt right for Dali, by the way.

Still, there were good days and bad days on set. A “perfect day,” says Morrison, “was shooting the scene where Bunuel comes upon Dali and Lorca in a clinch in Lorca’s room. Nice and contained, funny, and brilliant performances, and time enough to get all the shots I wanted, and think of some others.” Continues he, it was “also very magical to shoot in Cadaques in the little bay which was Dali’s favourite, and to know that he had stood on the same rocks with Lorca eighty years before. . .” An “awful day,” says Morrison, “was shooting the aunt’s dinner party where we had a lot of Spanish press and TV around, trying to present a front of professional calm to the, but the actors were 5 hours getting through make-up, and I was screaming with impatience as we were left with only two hours to shoot the big scene.”

With Twilight and How To Be star Robert Pattinson in the cast, and with his recent successes outside of Little Ashes, his fame is bringing a lot to the table for the release of this picture. About that, Morrison says, “I don’t follow it very closely, but mostly it has been great for us.” On the other hand, “where Rob has been misconstrued,” says Morrison, “and seemed to be putting down our movie when that wasn’t what he intended,” it can be irritating. Though, says Morrison, “I’m delighted for Rob for his success, and delighted, too, that he will draw a new audience to the movie. The fans of his who have seen it so far, who I’ve spoken to, seem very positive.”
Less than 2 weeks until we unfortunate souls that couldn't see the movie in theaters get to see How To Be on DVD.Can't wait! :))
Very refreshing interview (not all questions are about his RobArtness) from popmatters.com with How To Be director Oliver Orving:
When Oliver Irving began writing How To Be in 2004, he couldn’t know that when the film finally premiered at Slamdance four years later, his timing would be so fortuitous. Irving’s first feature film follows Art, a 20something aspiring musician in the midst of a “quarter-life crisis.” Now, following the release of Twilight, the casting of Robert Pattinson as Art looks brilliant. Irving made the rounds on the festival circuit with sold-out screenings and a cache of audience awards (including an Honorable Mention at Slamdance, Best Feature at New Orleans, and Best Actor for Pattinson at the Strasbourg International Film Festival).
The film is also timely in its subject matter. In a season of too many arrested development male-bonding comedies, How to Be offers a version suffused with a wry charm. Picked up by IFC Films in February, the movie screened at the IFC Center in New York in April and premiered on IFC Festival Direct on 29 April.
The festival schedule for How to Be grew leading up to the IFC release, with more and more sold out shows. I’ve been really touched by the strong positive response to this film. It has been amazing, the support we have had. That is why we took the bold step of booking our own cinemas, so we could tour around, screening the film and try to see as many people as possible.
You’ve watched the film with multiple festival audiences. Has the reception changed from last winter to this? When it first screened, it did have a really good response. What has changed is the numbers of people in the audience. Some people have seen it several times as well, so members of the audience are really starting to be familiar with the characters and even coining catchphrases in some instances, which is great. I love hearing the laughter during the film, I really do; it makes it all worth it.
How to Be sold out its first screening at the DC Independent Film Festival in March. Before the session began, the director of one of the accompanying short films made the joke that he was shocked so many people wanted to see his film. What do you think about droves of Robert Pattinson fangirls turning up at an independent film festival? Every so often, someone will love the movie and not have even really heard of Rob and that is reaffirming. But then, often people will say, “I came because of Rob, but I loved this film in its own right.” I can tell from what they say that their response is really genuine, so I am just glad that Rob’s star factor has brought in potential audiences. We have found that actually one of the groups of people who responded favorably to the film turned out to be the same as those who might be fans of Rob—so it was the right audience to start with. I’m glad the film won the Grand Jury Honorable mention at Slamdance long before Rob’s stardom flared up. That eases my neuroticism somewhat.
The DCIFF program describes the movie as “a timely look at the increasingly growing phenomena of grown-up children living at home, frustrated creativity, and self-help.” Is that their take on it or yours? It comes from our synopsis. But it is interesting to hear different people’s opinions as to what the film is really about. I love that everyone seems to take away a different particular element.
Well, what they report here is probably true but still the magazine is a crappy tabloid and there is NO way in hell the movie is going to be better than the book.(Sorry Rob, it's not you it's me :) The heart break on the blank pages with only the months in New Moon just can not be translated in a movie)
After deeming the 20-minute Sage & the Dills concert at Vancouver hot spot Metropole too short for his taste, an enchanted Robert Pattinson invited the band and his fellow New Moon co-stars, including Kristen Stewart, back to his hotel for an impromptu jam session on April 18.
As Robert, who plays dreamy vampire Edward Cullen, strummed his guitar, on-screen sibling Jackson Rathbone (Jasper) played harmonica while their big-screen sister Nikki Reed (Rosalie) added lyrics she had practiced onstage earlier that evening while serenading cast mate Taylor Lautner.
“We just got really creative,” lead singer Sage tells OK! of the intimate hotel-room session, which sounded like a mix of old-school rock and country as well as Van Morrison, Robert’s favorite rocker. “Everything blended together really well.” (Gozde: Sage sure likes to talk to the gossip rags doesn't she?Previously by Sage HERE)
Whether they’re making music or shooting Twilight sequels, the tight-knit cast of the vampire series works — and plays — as a true team. “It is weird that the minute we all met, it felt like family,” Kellan Lutz, who stars as Edward’s bloodsucker brother Emmett, tells OK!. “The first day we got on set, a lot of us felt like we’d always been related.”
But that hasn’t stopped Kellan, 24, from clobbering Robert when the cameras are rolling. While working on a scene in which their bodies collide, the actors learned that they have differing methods for stunt work — high school football star Kellan actually knocked the wind out of Robert.
“He didn’t think I’d actually nail him, but that’s what the script said I was supposed to do,” explains Kellan. “I didn’t go out of my way to hurt him, but there is Rob, trotting along, and bang!”
But on-set mishaps haven't changed anyone's feelings about the New Moon shoot, says Ashley Greene, who plays Alice Cullen.
“The first one, we all had no idea what we were getting ourselves into,” she tells OK!. “We all have our bearings now, and it is more fun and less stressful."
Poor guys, it must be so frustrating! It is so funny how the interviewer asks about Rob by disguising it as "People ask you questions about Rob don't they?" :) The whole interview is about Rob.
