Robert Pattinson's Queen of the Desert, Life and Maps To The Stars are expected for fall festivals!

Robert Pattinson's Queen of the Desert, Life and Maps To The Stars are expected for fall festivals!



The Toronto International Film Festival (Sept. 4-14) line up will be announced on July 22nd and the  Venice Film Festival (Aug. 27-Sept. 6) line up will be announced on July 24th.

Rob's next 3 films are rumored and expected to show up at one of these fall fests.

Maps To The Stars going to TIFF seems like a foregone conclusion at this point. It's expected to have its North American premiere there and then released later in the fall. 

Queen of the Desert producers have been dropping teases. Nick Raslan called QOTD "a true epic" and Cassian Elwes called the film a total winner and said they'd get distribution at the fall festivals. The Playlist added Telluride and NYFF to the mix for QOTD possibilities too. Elwes is hoping for US release this year and Raslan also shared a still from the film.

Life is the last Rob film to be a part of the fall fest rumors and it's the one I'm looking forward to the most. One guess why....

Anton Corbijn revealed that Philip Seymour Hoffman was planning on being in Life before his passing. The Playlist speculates that he could have played Dennis Stock's editor (now played by Joel Edgerton) or Jack Warner (played by Ben Kinglsey).

The Playlist also suggested that "Life is expected to be among the announcements for TIFF and Venice when they arrive next week". This would definitely be a pleasant surprise if it turns out to be true. VERY pleasant.



As for Rob's fall filming schedule, it looks like we'll see him film Idol's Eye and The Childhood of a Leader. TCOAL's time frame jumps around between September and November and IE jumps between October and November. We'll see how they shape up the closer we get since schedules on indies change frequently. The Lost City of Z was last scheduled for January 2015 but there seems to be a conflict with Benedict Cumberbatch's schedule (he's slated to now be working on Sherlock) so like the others, we just have to wait and see.



That's all that the updates on Rob's film slate for now. We'll keep you posted next week when the lineups are announced for the film festivals!

ROBsessed Giveaway: Enter for a chance to have a SWEET FILTHY BOY for our Fiction Friday

Ahhhhh....we all love a sweet filthy boy, don't we?



*howling* Oh Rob. KimmelRob sure knows how to let his hair down. We love us some SweetFilthyRob and he's the inspiration for this Fiction Friday. Christina Lauren started a new series called the Wild Season series and we're giving away the first book in the series, SWEET FILTHY BOY.

Synopsis:

One-night stands are supposed to be with someone convenient, or wickedly persuasive, or regrettable. They aren’t supposed to be with someone like him. 

But after a crazy Vegas weekend celebrating her college graduation—and terrified of the future path she knows is a cop-out—Mia Holland makes the wildest decision of her life: follow Ansel Guillaume—her sweet, filthy fling—to France for the summer and just…play. 

When feelings begin to develop behind the provocative roles they take on, and their temporary masquerade adventures begin to feel real, Mia will have to decide if she belongs in the life she left because it was all wrong, or in the strange new one that seems worlds away.

What's also cool about this giveaway is that we're one of the featured quotes in the beginning pages, praising the book!

Throwback Thursday With Robert Pattinson & Pierce Brosnan

Throwback Thursday With Robert Pattinson & Pierce Brosnan

I love all the great people that Rob works with and I may be a bit biased towards Pierce (and both his Irish feet ;p) but I just love to listen to the praise that he gives Rob!
I also love hearing the reasons Rob gives for being named Executive Producer on Remember Me. It's such a great movie and doesn't receive enough of recognition.
I think a Remember Me viewing is in order (grabs the pop corn and tissues).



And just because we can't get enough of white tee Remember Me Rob here's another oldie.

David Michôd talks about Robert Pattinson: "He was intelligent. He’s quite beautiful, but strange and very open."

David Michôd talks about Robert Pattinson: "He was intelligent. He’s quite beautiful, but strange and very open."



This is a great and lengthy interview with David Michôd from The Vent. We've posted the excerpt about Rob but check out the whole read too.

Q: How did you choose Robert Pattinson? 

A: I had met him before I even knew that The Rover was going to be my next movie, just as one of the billions of meetings that you do in Hollywood when your movie gets some attention. I really liked him. I didn’t know anything about him; I hadn’t seen the Twilight films, and I still haven’t seen them, but I just liked him. He was intelligent. I loved his physicality, I loved his face – his very unusual face. He’s quite beautiful, but strange and very open. When I knew that The Rover was going to be the next movie and I started testing for it, Rob was at the top of my list for people I wanted to see. He came in and demonstrated to me immediately that he was a really interesting actor. He came in with a really beautiful fully considered version of the character, because it’s a character that could be played in a lot of ways – it could be caricature, or it could be played as severely mentally disabled – and his test was just beautiful. He was hungry for it, as well, which was important to me. I knew that we were going to be spending a couple of months out in really quite testing conditions. 

Q: How difficult was it? 

A: It was really tough. It was really hot and very remote. No-one’s phone worked. We were just filthy all the time. But we were all together all the time – the entire crew, we’d work all day and then we’d go and stay at the same pretty shabby accommodation every night, and we’d just be together. We’d get drunk and sing songs. 

Q: How did Robert find that? 

A: Great, you know. I remember having one experience in one of the first towns we shot in. We’d finished shooting for the day; we would all gather at one of seven pubs in this town – it’s a town of like 300 people, but there’s seven pubs –and I remember one night I was walking across the street to the pub and I could see Rob walking down the street from the room that he was staying in towards the pub, walking down the street by himself, and as we got closer, he says to me, ‘I can’t begin to tell you how magical this experience is for me. I’m just walking down the street by myself.’

Wonderful remarks! Love how directors speak about Rob. Click HERE to read the interview in its entirety.

Thank you Nancy for the tip!
