Robert Pattinson Talks to Movieline About Risk, Reward and Remember Me


Robert Pattinson probably didn’t want to spend his Saturday at a press junket any more than the journalists who greeted him there, but we’re all professionals here. Especially Pattinson, whose new film Remember Me features the young megastar in a searching departure from his Twilight turn as Edward Cullen. There’s still the young torment, the dilemma of first love (with a fellow NYU student played by Emilie De Ravin) and, well, that awe-inspiring hair. But in determining what makes his character Tyler Hawkins tick, there’s also a somewhat shocking awareness of mortality beneath all that gorgeous sulking. Between his aloof father (Pierce Brosnan), his compassionate mother (Lena Olin), his confidante little sister (Ruby Jerins) and the ghost of his dead older brother, Tyler is always just on the verge of some discovery — and despite what Pattinson’s fans may crave, it’s not quite catharsis.

I’d love to be more specific, and I will be as Remember Me’s review embargo drops prior to its March 12 opening. Until then, Pattinson helped Movieline make at least a little sense of it all at last week’s press gathering in New York:


Speaking about your role in this film, your co-star Pierce Brosnan said, “[h]e’s courageous to find a piece like this, knowing that he has the Twilight franchise breathing down his throat, and you know it will be up to him to go out there and seek these films between these mega-movies he’s about to do.” How do you respond to that?
I don’t think it’s courageous. I think it’s more courageous to do something to try to compete with it. They’re so huge. Like, the idea of doing a massive film, [for] which everybody says, “This is going to make tons of money,” and the whole point of it is to be huge or a summer blockbuster or something like that? The idea of doing something like that between the Twilight films is terrifying because you put yourself out way more on the line. I mean, I keep wanting to do ensemble pieces where all the other parts are great, and you can get really great actors in so you don’t have to bear the whole burden of the movie. If I could do supporting roles in things, then I’d love to do that. But it’s difficult to get supporting roles because it would be really weird most of the time. “Well, there’s the guy from Twilight playing the parking warden,” or something. But I would love to do that.

One of my maiden problems that I’ve been trying to learn about is how to pace a performance to drive the film forward instead of just concentrating on character. I mean, I just want to concentrate on character all the time, and I don’t really know how pacing works. Yet. So I try to choose little random projects where I can completely relate to the story — so I don’t have to take any particular risks for it.

Shooting in downtown Manhattan notoriously became a kind of circus atmosphere, to say the least. How did that affect your psychology — and thus the kind of angst-y psychology of the character? That discomfort in your own skin?
There are some parts — like the part I’m playing now (in Bel Ami) — where it would have really helped having loads of paparazzi up in your face all the time. He’s sort of such a self-contained, very, very confident man. But it was really annoying for Tyler, because there’s something about… He’s always looking for things. You wanted to be free to look around. He kept looking around, and if you looked up from the pavement you can hear all the shutters accelerate all of the sudden. So I’m looking down all the time. It’s always going to be difficult if you’re playing a normal guy and you walk around the corner and everyone’s taking pictures. Because you’re going into it with the mentality that it’s a struggle to not go into the scene with that mentality. But it got better throughout the shoot. As soon as you get used to it, it just becomes like any other job. It’s just part of the furniture.

Did you have a favorite scene, then?
On this? [Contemplating.] If I think of it afterward it’s probably not the one, but I love the scene where he goes into the school to confront [his sister]’s bullies. Mainly because it’s just a fantasy! Being the older brother, you always want to do stuff like that. It sounds like the most unprofound thing, but it did feel really good doing it. But there were tons of things in this. I think the movie sort of works as… I don’t know if “cohesive” is the right word, but it’s all part of one big thing. It doesn’t really feel like set-piece scenes. It’s really weird, and I was really conscious of that when I was filming it. It seemed like everything was very connected. There are some movies you do where you say, “Oh, this scene was really good to do, and the other ones are just sort of, you know, fill-ins.” It seemed like everything came from the same place.

Oscar coproducer Adam Shankman: We tried really really hard to get him there



Just because Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner are presenting at Sunday's Oscars without Robert Pattinson that does not mean the world's most famous sparkly bloodsucker wasn't invited, too.

"I think the Pattinson community is going insane," Oscars coproducer Adam Shankman told us last night at Vanity Fair's FEED Foundation and Hungry in America Project event. "All I want to say is, 'He's not available!' "

Yes, Pattinson is currently in New York City to promote his new romantic drama Remember Me, but...

Rob has to jet right back to Europe to continue shooting Bel Ami.

"It's not like we snubbed him," Shankman assured us. "It's not like we said no to him. We asked him to be in the show. We tried really really hard to get him there. We were working on getting Summit to fly him in for the day, but eventually it became too much."

Roberts Interview with "Jake The Movie Guy"

Robert Pattinson Greets His Fans Outside the Today Show Studio

CNN: My eight minutes with Robert Pattinson



I just recently became a tweeter on Twitter. After walking out of a screening of the new Robert Pattinson film "Remember Me," I tweeted just that. Suddenly my blackberry went into overdrive, and all incoming messages were from new Twitter followers. But really, they were all Robert Pattinson followers. I had no idea just how strong the power of Pattinson was until I witnessed it first hand.

Yesterday I interviewed R. Patz (as his fans affectionately call him) at the Regency Hotel here in New York. He was wearing an army-green jacket, a plain white-T and jeans. What really stood out was his hair. It was sticking straight up on top. It seemed to me that he was unlike most actors with preening stylists in tow. I liked that.

They held me right before it was my turn to go into his room. I could overhear one of the girls on headset saying, "Where are Robert’s lattes? It’s been a while." Soon a tray came up to the room with two metal pitchers.

When I walked into to the room they announced my name and that I was with CNN. Pattinson stood up to shake my hand. This rarely happens at press junkets. Journalists are ushered in and out interview rooms like a revolving door - no one gets up.

I thought Robert looked a little pale, perhaps that’s what was making his green eyes seem so green. He was easy to talk to and relaxed, although through most of the interview his hands were moving. At times they were in his hair - now I understood why it was standing up seemingly on its own. He might have seemed a little sloppy, with his unruly hair and his slouchy T-shirt, but perhaps that is what made him more endearing.

I asked him how he was doing. He didn’t complain; he motioned to the small table nearby which now had his coffee.

He asked me if I was based in New York. I told him that I was.

"That’s cool," he said. "How have you been finding the snow?" he asked in his soft-spoken English accent.

“It’s been okay, manageable.” I answered. I think he started to say "Can’t deal with it," when suddenly we heard someone yell “SPEED."

We both laughed - it was time to start the interview. No time for small talk, there was a cattle drive outside of journalists waiting for their handful of minutes with him.

I asked Pattinson about the film and if he thought it was about love and the fragility of life.

“Sometimes people come into your life like at the right time and you know they achieve, there’s like a purpose they're destined to achieve something. But I don’t know if it’s necessarily about love but it does fix something in either one of them."

"Remember Me" doesn’t have a typical Hollywood ending, and what happens has been leaked on the Internet. I asked him about the way the film ends.

"It’s strange as well as being a sort of tragedy cause also it’s very weirdly uplifting movie as well for a kind of tragic thing."

"What do you do now to have a private life?" I asked. "There is such a spotlight on you now, where do you go to get away from it?"

Pattinson leaned over to take a sip of his coffee. “There are so many places, I mean you have to be asking for it to cause problems for yourself."

He said, "I’ve been shooting in London and it’s the absolute opposite of this. There’s no one around, I mean ever. There’s huge demographics of people who’ve never seen or heard of 'Twilight’ and it’s quite easy to find little pockets where you can like disappear."

"Do you feel like you’re handling it well?" I asked.

"I don’t know yet," Pattinson said with a light laugh. "I’m kind of just working the whole time, so hopefully I’ll just side-step around everything."

It may be difficult for Pattinson to side-step around everything, when he’s at the center of it all.

20 minutes of 'Remember Me' Behind The Scenes Footage and On Set Interviews









Summit Entertainment has provided us with a Robert Pattinson on set interview and a ton of behind the scenes footage from Remember Me. While I generally don’t post studio provided interviews, I know how popular Robert Pattinson is, and the 9 minute interview isn’t online yet.

And regarding the behind the scenes footage…when a movie is filming, the studio will document the process and release what’s called B-Roll. This is generally footage of the cast and crew working on location, or footage of the cast filming a scene. If you’re curious what being on a movie set is really like, you’ll enjoy the footage. Remember Me stars Robert Pattinson, Emilie de Ravin, Pierce Brosnan, and Chris Cooper. Allen Coulter directed the film and William Fetters wrote the script. Hit the jump to check out the footage and interview:

Here’s the synopsis:

In the romantic drama Remember Me, Robert Pattinson plays Tyler, a rebellious young man in New York City who has had a strained relationship with his father (Pierce Brosnan) ever since tragedy separated their family. Tyler didn’t think anyone could possibly understand what he was going through, until the day he met Ally (Emilie de Ravin) through an unusual twist of fate. Love was the last thing on his mind, but as her spirit unexpectedly heals and inspires him, he begins to fall for her. Through their love, he begins to find happiness and meaning in his life. Soon, hidden secrets are revealed and tragedy lingers in the air, as the circumstances that brought them together threaten to tear them apart.
