UPDATE2: Added another pic of Rob having fun on the 4th of July!



Guuurl. You have got your priorities all messed up. TURN AROUND! *cries*



UPDATE: Added more details about the party from E! and The Source.

E!/Marc Malkin: Robert Pattinson may be British, but that doesn't mean he can't celebrate the Fourth of July.

The actor was among the star-studded crowd at 1OAK's pop-up last night at Nobu in Malibu.

Pattinson arrived at the party at about 9:30 p.m. with The Lying Game actor Ryan Rottman (Tink: Seen with Rob in this recent pic HERE). "He was wearing a hat and trying to stay undercover," a fellow partygoer tells me. "He hung out at a corner table and was flirtatious with multiple girls all night. He stayed through the performances and was really enjoying himself."

Chris Brown Jamie Foxx and Tyga (Tink: Rob had to LOVE that. Click HERE to read his mention of Tyga and Brown during The Rover promo) surprised the crowd with impromptu performances of their hits, including "Loyal" and "Gold Digger."

"Rob seemed extremely into the music, smiling and dancing nearly the whole time," another eyewitness said.

Hosted by Richie Akiva, Scott Sartiano, Ronnie Madra and Darren Dzienciol, the Wildfox-sponsored bash also attracted Chace Crawford, Courtney Love, Ryan Phillippe, Elle Fanning, Paris Hilton, Ellen Pompeo, Brody Jenner, James Marsden, Mel B, celebrity deejay Samantha Ronson and Brown's girlfriend Karrueche Tran.

The Source Robert Pattinson, Jamie Foxx, Chris Brown, Karrueche Tran, Reggie Bush Attend 1OAK’s Fourth Of July Bash:
Some Hollywood heavyweights attended OAK’s Exclusive Fourth of July Bash at Nobu Malibu last night. Those who came out for the 1OAK Fourth of July bash on Friday night got more than just a fireworks show. Hosted by Richie Akiva, Scott Sartiano, Ronnie Madra and Darren Dzienciol, the exclusive event sponsored by Wildfox brought Hollywood’s elite to Nobu Malibu for the party of the Summer. Stars like Robert Pattinson, Chace Crawford, Jamie Foxx, Ryan Phillippe, Chris Brown with Karrueche Tran, Elle Fanning, Ellen Pompeo, Emanuelle Chriqui, James Marsden, Mel B., Michelle Trachtenberg, Muse, Nicky Hilton, Paris Hilton, Reggie Bush, Russell Simmons and Samantha Ronson partied beachside and noshed on Nobu’s signature dishes such as rock shrimp tempura, yellowtail with jalapeno and crispy rice with spicy tuna. Chris Brown and Jamie Foxx treated guests to a surprise performance as they jumped on stage to sing their hit songs, “Loyal” and “Gold Digger.” Later in the evening, guests enjoyed a spectacular fireworks show ending the legendary party with a bang!

Jeeeeeeeeez Rob. I'm sure it was hot enough in Nobu already without you bringing somuchporn. Rude.

On with the Rob-is-freakin-awesome-in-The-Rover show....

James Dranko TV:

Robert Pattinson (Rey) plays the character showpiece of the film. It was obvious from the trailer he was going to be and he does not let down in any kind of way. He makes the screen snap, in every scene he’s in. You can’t take your eyes off Rey for fear of missing a single word he might say or movement he may make. Despite the Twlight series I’ve known the guy could act. I loved “Remember Me” and he proves it in “Cosmopolis” and will continue to do so through a long career. “The Rover” did not have box office success but the industry will take note of his performance. Trust. He will leave Edward Cullen far behind soon enough. Rey had multi-layered characteristics and quirks, he was the most developed of all of the roles. It’s his best performance yet and an Oscar-caliber one by Pattinson.

Marshall and the Movies (A-):

It’s Robert Pattinson’s Rey who makes every moment memorable on the way to the destination. Clad in an oversized T-shirt and baggy jeans the entire film, Pattinson effortlessly conveys how uneasy Rey feels in his own skin. He resists typical tropes of playing half-witted characters, instead providing a deeply humane portrait of a 12-year-old mind trapped in a 28-year-old body. In a film largely about ideas and large themes, Pattinson provides a crucial emotional entry to “The Rover.” He manages to draw out remarkable empathy, both in us and eventually even somewhat in Eric. His minuscule facial motions illuminate a world of internal torment that expresses itself in the simple desire for acceptance and respect. This tender work fulfills all the promise Robert Pattinson showed in “Cosmopolis” and heralds the arrival of a truly great actor whose talents might one day overpower all the tabloid headlines.

Reel Speak:

As good as he is, this show is stolen by Robert Pattinson. His character is a lost soul; dim-witted and maybe even a little mentally challenged…and Pattinson nails it at every turn. He generates sympathy and disgust towards his character all at the same time, and it is a signal to the world that he is ready to shop in the grown-up section.

The Film Rush:

Rey is arguably the single good soul in the movie, a man who only wants to be more than what everyone has told him he is. Robert Pattinson’s performance is a master class in control. All the physical idiosyncrasies could easily have come across as mannered and technical, but Pattinson makes them seem effortless, as if springing from a deep well of damaged psyche. There’s an astonishing scene near the end of the film, as Rey, on the precipice of doing something stupid, sits alone in a car, in the dark, and sings along to a pop song. Does he understand the implications of what he’s about to do? Possibly, although he gives no sign either way—no evidence of nerves, no hint of apprehension. Just a simple action, sweet and childlike in its innocence. It’s a beautiful moment, the calm before a violent storm, and Pattinson hits it perfectly. If there was ever any question that he’s thrown off the shackles of Edward Cullen and matured into a gifted actor, “The Rover” answers it loud and clear.

Spotlight Report:

Whilst Pearce appears to be dead inside, Pattinson’s sweet naivety and loyalty is endearing. He has misplaced hope in a world where there is no place for such luxuries. He plays the role perfectly and flexes acting muscles that have previously lain dormant in the less challenging roles he is known for, capturing the stunning simplicity of his character.

It's Just Movies (9/10):

If Guy Pierce is as good as ever, it is the startling performance by Pattinson that nearly steals the show. Having a track record consisting mostly of profitable teen-age “Twilight Saga” credits, Pattinson had to buck a huge gravitational pull towards the trivial to fill the shoes of the mentally disabled and weak-kneed, but remarkably adaptable and inwardly tough, armed criminal Rey.

Joel On Film:

The second of the great performances--and perhaps the better one, though comparisons are cheap--comes courtesy of Robert Pattinson, who plays Rey. He's Henry's half-wit brother, far from an idiot savant but also not quite an idiot. He has his own reasons for keeping quiet when Eric questions him about his brother's whereabouts. Rey was left behind in that aftermath of that Mexican stand-off, thought dead by Henry and his goons. And, indeed, he's grievously injured (possibly a gunshot to the left of his abdomen). Pattinson is magnetic in his approach to this loose cannon of a character, adopting a seamless Southern American accent and a nervy physicality.

Instareviews:

I must say, I’m extremely impressed with Robert Pattinson. In the years since the last “Twilight” film, he has made a conscious effort to leave behind the teen-heartthrob persona, and take his work as an actor seriously. It shows in this film, he’s by far one of the best things about this film, sure Guy Pearce can play mad/crazy, but this simple-minded victim that Pattinson portrays is far more intricate than the gruffly Pearce character.

Cut Print Film:

It’s the kind of character that could easily be too big, too showy, and lose its authenticity; but Pattinson never crosses that line. He shows us something behind this character’s eyes, a humanity that his counterpart has deeply buried.

The Hodgepodge Podcast:

The real surprise for me was Robert Pattinson as Rey. Rey isn’t Of Mice and Men’s Lennie levels of simple, but it’s clear that he’s not the brightest bulb in the pack and Pattinson plays the part so well. Because of his association with the critically-lambasted Twilight films, there is a belief out there that Pattinson is a bad actor when in reality, the Twilight films are just bad movies. He’s actually quite good and really shines here.

Keepin It Reel:

Holy shit, hands down Best Supporting Actor right now, Robert Pattinson. I never thought I would say this, but he is fantastic in this role! This is the first performance of his that A) I liked and B) the first that I've seen that I just didn't recognize him at all. He disappears into the role and plays it for all it's worth.

Look It's Eugene Abano:

Then we have Pattinson’s portrayal of Rey… my goodness. There’s some great acting going on here, Pattinson really shines (pun intended).

Adammohrbacher:

Amazingly, Pattinson, who has long been the butt of too many a joke, holds his own against Pearce’s patented brand of laconic ferocity. The younger actor perhaps even eclipses him here, if for no other reason than the efficacy of his performance is so surprising. Having long been relegated to roles which capitalize on his looks, Pattinson has steadily continued to push himself as an actor, particularly in recent years as he has attempted to escape the sparkly shadow of Edward Cullen. His Rey is an intriguing creature, appearing initially to be little more than a hapless dolt, but slowly revealing an affecting emotional dependency (on Pearce’s character) but also a hidden capability to survive.

Medium (4/5):

While Pearce’s performance is no real surprise, Pattinson steals the show, proving that he is an actual actor and not the pretty boy that the awful ‘Twilight’ adaptations have made him out to be. Pattinson stammers and twitches as Rey, a character whose thought process is a little bit slower than your average young man, but is still able to convey his feelings through simple sentences and memories. I can’t speak highly enough about the film’s watchability because of these two performances, which leads one to question whether or not the characters are bonding.

At The Picture Show:

It's an exceptional performance from Pearce - there's a controlled sense of madness and anger in him that's fascinating to watch - and Pattinson gives his best performance yet as Eric's somewhat unwilling, and uncertain, companion. The film is at its best when it's a two-hander between Pearce and Pattinson, as their characters - whose understanding of the world could not be more at odds - reconcile the absence of moral order in a world that's left them for dead.

Reel Freak:

Pattinson is probably the most surprising part about The Rover, proving that he deserves a lot more credit as an actor than just “that guy from Twilight”. We saw solid dramatic acting from him previously in movies like Water for Elephants a few years back, but this sets a whole new level of appreciation for his talent. He is able to pull off this sort of simple-man character and pairs up extremely well with Guy Pearce’s character.

Exclaim.ca:

it's Robert Pattinson who steals much of the spotlight in this dystopian crime drama. A couple years removed from his teeny-bopper past and with films like the critically panned Cosmopolis allowing him to flex his post-Edward muscle, Pattinson plays the dumb dirtbag Rey to a tee, complete with loose-fitting pants, limp, shallow stare and penchant for over-played pop songs (one scene finds him mumbling along to Keri Hilson's "Pretty Girl Rock" to great success).

Film Fisher:

Pattinson disappears into the role, revealing a well of talent untapped by the Twilight films. His tics and neuroses feel unaffected, not calculated, and he is able to balance Rey’s cluelessness with an innocent charm while also selling his naked emotional vulnerability.

'He Loved The Idea Of Being Part Of An Ensemble' ~ David Cronenberg Talks Robert Pattinson & 'Maps To The Stars' + New BTS Pic

'He Loved The Idea Of Being Part Of An Ensemble' ~ David Cronenberg Talks Robert Pattinson & 'Maps To The Stars' + New BTS Pic

David Cronenberg was interviewed by French magazine Cahiers Du Cinéma where he spoke about Maps and of course mentioned Rob.
The magazine also features Maps To The Stars on their cover and a new BTS pic of David at work with Rob & Mia.
You'll find the translation of the part of the interview where David mentions Rob below the scans.
It does contains a couple of spoilers so if you're trying to remain a Maps To the Stars virgin be careful!





Translation of the parts where David mentions Rob

A child kills another near a urinal, it goes a long way … At the same time, the beauty of the movie is that it's 'for' children, to save the children. The character played by Mia Wasikowska is older but behaves like a child. She gathers children.

Yes the main character is the sweetest, most naive, the purest even she's crazy. She isn't here to become a star but to solve a family trauma. Jerome's character played by Robert Pattinson is also a child. He isn't born in Los Angeles, he comes from Indiana and elsewhere, he believes that he is able to play the game. It's pathetic, he'll be destroyed like a child. He's too vulnerable. He plays the badass people but he doesn't. At the end, the children are destroyed by monsters. This is the new direction taken by the poem Liberté which was written by Paul Eluard at the time of the Resistance. Here, freedom is death.

Why did you have so much difficulty making Maps To The Stars ?

My movies are canadian-UK, Canadian-French or Canadian-German coproductions. I had to shoot at least five days in Los Angeles. We couldn't recreate Hollywood in Toronto, we had to shoot there, it's so special. We shot twenty four days in Toronto and five in L.A. One of the problems was to find a coproduction allowing to shoot in the States, and therefore spending money in the United States rather than in the coproducing country. And in most coproductions, it's not possible to have a co writer which isn't from the coproduction country … There is also the problem of the actors : we were only allowed to have one American actor, and that's John Cusack. Julianne Moore has a British passport, Mia Wasikowska is Australian with a Polish passport, Robert Pattinson is English. We didn't manage to find a coproduction eight years ago or five years ago either. And this is the coproduction with Germany which allowed us to get an American screenwriter. And Saïd Ben Saïd joined us. Here is the reality with which I have to deal as an independent director !

In Maps To The Stars, we can feel the light of Los Angeles. At the end, on the terrace of the hospital, the decor is very strange, we can feel the hills behind.

You believed it? This scene is a CGI one! We shot the hills and we put behind the scenes in Toronto. There was nothing around. I know that in Los Angeles, we would see the hills, that's why I put this background. We did the same the thing in the scene where Mia discovers Rob on set, the Hollywood hills in the background are made in CGI. When people ask me if I like CGI, I say yes: not to create monsters, but to give birth to this kind of atmosphere without anyone noticing it. It's invisible but it helps to create a certain reality.

Was it a joke to shoot Robert Pattinson as a limo driver after Cosmopolis?

No. Of course, I thought about it, but he loved the idea of being a part of an ensemble, not being the lead actor. So this is a chance … In fact, in the movie, he's Bruce Wagner, because Bruce was a limo driver for years, and the lead part in his first novel, Force Majeure, is a limo driver. But only a few people saw Cosmopolis, so nobody will think about it. I hope there will be more people going to see Maps To The Stars (laughs)!
