Interview with Robert Pattinson:Were you already familiar with the novel by Don DeLillo?No. But I had read some of his other books. I first read the script when it was sent to me by David Cronenberg and afterwards the novel. The script is so faithful to the book that seems almost incredible, especially considering that Cosmopolis was deemed impossible to adapt. Even before reading DeLillo’s work, I was struck by the pace of the screenplay was agitated and the relentless tension.
What was it about this film that attracted your attention?Cronenberg, without a doubt! I shot a few films and I could not imagine how it would be to work with him. I was not disappointed … I knew he would play with his creativity and that this experience would have scored. I left the script involving the same way you can be fascinated by a long poem, a very mysterious poem. Usually, when you read a script, you quickly understand what it’s about, where it will go and how it will end, although there are unexpected twists and sophisticated solutions that address the course of history. With the script of Cosmopolis, however, it was completely different: the more I read and I could not understand how it would be more evolved and pushed me to thinking of wanting to be part of the film. It would not be like shooting a movie , but a separate and unique opportunity.
The first time you read the script and saw the role, did you imagined how it would be?Not at all. The first time I spoke with David I explained that I could not prefigurami nothing and he reassured me that was a good sign. Since then, I have asked many questions and I left all the text to evolve in a progressive and organic, in transforming visual choices that would form the film. It was a living process, although during the first week of filming we were all still wondering which way he took everything once finished shooting. Everything was very charming, it was as if the film was modeled step by step.
