Robert Pattinson spotted at a photography shop in London + movie updates for Life and The Lost City of Z
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.

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.
NEW: Robert Pattinson Talks To 'The Wall Street Journal' About Dior & MORE
The Wall Street Journal talk to Robert Pattinson about promoting Dior and if you wondered what Rob's favourite way is to wear the fragrance then have a read below.
Also Rob's Dior commercial makes its American television debut in February, during the Olympics!!
Since premiering in Europe last September, Robert Pattinson's steamy Romain Gavras–directed fragrance commercial for Dior Homme has generated more than 15 million views on YouTube. When the black-and-white short, starring the 27-year-old Twilight-saga heartthrob makes its American television debut in February, during the Olympics, that number should increase exponentially. (Kate: I'll say! Go Rob) Pattinson's steely glances are being repurposed to promote Dior Homme Eau for Men, a fresh new grapefruit and coriander-spiked riff on the heady, iris-laden original scent that hits shelves exclusively in the U.S. in February.
"I like trying to do ambitious things," says Pattinson. Pairing the Parisian luxury brand with Gavras's "violent and visceral" approach was his idea. (The director's infamous 2010 video for M.I.A's "Born Free" was pulled from YouTube for its graphic content.) "That's what got me really enthusiastic about the campaign, that [Dior] wasn't shying away from anything." Pattinson's beauty contract has afforded him a few other perks. "I was a brush-your-teeth-and-have-a-shower kind of guy. I can't tell if it's because of my association with Dior or because I'm older, but I've started moisturizing," he says, calling out the brand's Dermo System Repairing Moisturizing Emulsion as his current skin salve of choice.With a tinge of sarcasm, he adds, "It's been a quite profound change in my life." As for the fragrance he fronts, Pattinson likes it best in shower-gel form. Other musts include Nudie jeans and "old Hanes T-shirts," he says. "There are stores that sell these sweat-stained T-shirts for like $80. It's a weird cult!"
Up next for the British-born star is director David Cronenberg's Maps to the Stars—a "darkly comedic Hollywood satire ghost story," according to Pattinson. He also has projects with Werner Herzog and Anton Corbijn in the works. "This year, I'm trying to see what my niche is."

POLL: What Robert Pattinson film are you looking forward to him completing in 2014?
With less than 24 hours to go in the heated Round 2 MTV Movie Brawl (CLICK HERE TO VOTE), I know you guys might be poll'd out but I was curious about the ROBsessed consensus on something we covered during 365DoR for Rob's workload in 2013.
If all goes according to plan, Rob will be filming 5 movies in the first 6 months of the year! It's an ambitious calendar but we're not complaining. All work and no play hardly makes Rob a dull boy. So of all the films, which one are you looking forward to the most? I know we want them alllllll but which story/character do you have your fingers and toes crossed that it stays on Rob's schedule?
Queen of the Desert - filming now, Rob will play T.E. Lawrence in Werner Herzog's story about Gertrude Bell. Rob is in a supporting role but he's playing an iconic character and with a director he considers a genius. Life - filming to start in February, Rob will play Dennis Stock, the Life magazine photographer famous for showing an intimate look into the life of James Dean. Rob is in a leading role as we see him play a straight-laced man chasing a rebellious rising star which leads to an unexpected friendship. Fun trivia: The Life script was written by Luke Davies - housemate of David Michôd, Rob's The Rover director.
Mission: Blacklist - filming scheduled for the second quarter, Rob will play real-life hero, Eric Maddox. Another leading role, Rob dives into the historical tale of how a young, brilliant military interrogator assisted in the capturing of Saddam Hussein.
The Childhood of a Leader - filming scheduled for May, not much is known about Rob's role in this film yet but it tracks the childhood of a World War 1 leader. We also know that the movie will reunite Rob with his Cosmopolis co-star, Juliette Binoche, and is the directorial debut of Brady Corbet. Fun Trivia: Brady Corbet was at Rob's Cosmopolis premiere in NYC.
The Lost City of Z - filming this summer, Rob will keep his trend going and play in another true story. We don't know his role in this film either but it's an adventure tale set in the 1920s. Rob will find himself working with another director he admires greatly - James Gray.
Select one or more
We love and support all of Rob's films and can't wait for them to grace the big screen!
