The Cannes press conference for Good Time gave us news of exciting new roles for Robert Pattinson (click here to listen again). Rob continues to seek out his favourite directors to work with. Not only do we have an update on when High Life is expected to film but news of three more upcoming projects! Click on the directors names to learn more about their previous films.
Claire Denis
Rob will play the lead role in the Science Fiction drama 'High Life' directed by Claire Denis. Claire Denis was in Cannes and supported Rob by walking the red carpet for Good Life. She gave a quick interview sharing that Rob's character will be "the hero, a very tender paternalistic film". The film is planned to start shooting in Autumn.
Johanna Hogg
We learned that Rob will play the lead role in an upcoming British production 'The Souvenir' that will be directed by Johanna Hogg. The movie is part of a pair of films with Rob playing the lead in one of the films in the role of an actor. (See our previous post for more details here)
David Michod
Rob announced that the press conference he would be re-teaming with David Michod. Rob fans got to know David from The Rover and it's so exciting that they will be working together again.
Antonio Campos
There's not much known about this new role for Rob but check the link above for Antonio's upcoming projects.
Ciro Guerra
Rob's project with Ciro is even more a mystery. Even Rob himself seemed unsure that he should have announced it.
The future looks bright for Rob and for us!!

Cannes 2017. Robert Pattinson: “I finally look like an adult”
He is unrecognizable in “Good Time,” a film in official competition. In this electric drama directed by the Safdie brothers, Robert Pattinson plays a robber in the shallows of New York. Meet the beautiful boy revealed by the “Twilight” saga, now 31 years old.
Is not that (Good Time) your best role?
Robert Pattinson: What is certain is that it was one of my favorite experiences. It was such a crazy adventure. At the beginning, there wasn’t even a script and then, we find ourselves in competition in Cannes …
This is your fourth Festival. Do you feel at home?
R: I love coming here. For me, it is the pinnacle to present a film.
You have contacted the Safdie brothers after seeing a photo of their movie “Mad Love in New York” …
R: Yes. I found the image so beautiful and moving that I said, “I want to shoot with these people. And then I met them. They are so intelligent and good people. I told them I was ready to do whatever they wanted.
This is where the Safdie wrote this role for you. What do you have in common with your character?
R: His anxiety (laughs). And like Connie, before, in New York, I spent most of my time on the street trying to hide myself. Instinctively, I kept looking around to avoid the paparazzi.
This is no longer the case?
R: In London, where I live most of the time, people would rather see the reality show heroes and footballers. And in Los Angeles, where I am often, paparazzi make less money because magazines publish photos from Instagram, so it’s better.
You’ve totally changed the look for this character …
R: Yes. Usually, I look like a 22 year old kid. There, they made me false acne scars, I have darker hair … I finally look like an adult.
How was the shoot?
R: It was extremely bad for my health! I slept very little. The night work was almost always sixteen or seventeen hours in a row. We were in a bubble. It was very intense and stressful.
Since the end of "Twilight”, you choose independent films on a small budget. Why ?
R: When I choose a film, I don’t wonder if it will be a success or not. If it’s a low budget film, I say to myself: “I will do another after.” What I want is to surprise. However, commercial films are designed not to disturb the public. I find them boring to see and make.
You must soon shoot with the French director Claire Denis …
R: Yes, this summer normally. I had seen his movie "White Material” on television eight years ago and I found it an outstanding performance. I wanted to work with her. When I met her, she had a role for a guy who was 50 years old … But during the appointment, I felt her changing her mind.
Kristen Stewart (Ed: his former co-star in “Twilight” and ex) was in Cannes to present her short film. Did you meet her?
R: No.
Are you still in touch?
R: Not really (laughs).
Le Parisian review:
"Good Time": a nocturnal and hypnotic thriller *****
Robert Pattinson, unrecognizable in “Good Time." … Connie (Robert Pattinson) is hunted, and his look hallucinated in a frenzied race punctuated with bursts of violence. Some scenes - like the pursuit in an amusement park - are ultra-cinematic. And Pattinson impresses with this feverish interpretation.
"Good Time,” Theatrical release October 11 in France.
