Robert Pattinson Scores Colin Farrell’s ‘Cosmopolis’ Role

While his “Twilight Saga” cast-mates are busy staging paparazzi photos (yea, I am talking to you Kellen Lutz!), Robert Pattinson is busy booking more acting jobs.

Aside from his roles in the upcoming ‘Water for Elephants’ and ‘Bel Ami,’ Pattinson is now slated to take on the lead role of Eric Packer in the film adaptation of Don DeLillo’s novel, ‘Cosmopolis.’

Via Deadline:

“[Pattinson]will play Eric Packer. A financial wunderkind, Packer risks his entire fortune to bet against the yen on a tumultuous day. His deed puts him in the crosshairs for assassination in a drama that is a study of capitalism in a slightly futuristic metropolis. Most of the scenes in the book take place in the limousine that transports Packer from place to place. Marion Cotillard and Paul Giamatti are also reportedly doing the film, but those same reports had Colin Farrell poised to take the lead role.”

Unlike other young actors who seem to take any role offered to them (now I am still talking to you Kellen Lutz!), Pattinson has been quite selective with his roles, choosing to star alongside Oscar winners such as Reese Witherspoon, Christoph Waltz, and now Marion Cotillard.

Robert Pattinson: ‘Relationship with Kristen Stewart is a Publicity Stunt’

Easy Twi-Hards! Don’t cut me!!!

Sources flooding in this morning are telling me that ‘Twilight’ co-stars and rumored luvahs, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart, aren’t really a couple.

According to reports, Pattinson spilled the beans while on the set of his new film, ‘Water for Elephants,’ that the relationship between the two is merely a publicity stunt.

Via Like It I Do:

“Just when we thought that Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart really were a couple, another story comes out that states that they are not really dating. Allegedly, Robert Pattinson has told his costars on the ‘Water For Elephants’ set that he is single and that his relationship with Kristen Stewart is just for publicity.”

Before you start writing hate-mail, this is yet another alleged rumor, kittens. Lest you forget Stewart jetted to Budapest to visit Pattinson (who was there shooting ‘Bel Ami’) for her birthday and the two have been spotted wearing matching rings (see those photos by CLICKING HERE).

Robert Pattinson’s Bedroom-Photos

We haven’t had a good Robert Pattinson story since his beard spoke-out to help Haiti.

robert-pattinson-bedroom

But now all you Twihards are getting about as close to Sparklepants’s bedroom as you ever will.

Entertainment Wise got ahold of some audition video and stills of Rob in what appears to be his bedroom. Apparently, he has a thing for Maggie Gyllenhaal (i.e. The Secretary poster).

Via Entertainment Wise:

“We came across these stills from an audition tape Rob made for the film How To Be. From the looks of things Rob is acting in what could have been his bedroom (SCCCRRREAAAMMM) and looking very relaxed in a tshirt and minus his trade mark quiff.”

His room looks surprisingly like that of a guy’s I dated in college. Minus the Bud Light can collection and the industrial sized bottle of lube he kept on the coffee table.

Robert Pattinson’s Hot Date with Emilie de Ravin

robert-pattinson-and-emilie-de-ravin-pic.jpg

Robert Pattinson went on a date yesterday morning in Los Angeles. Wait, let me rephrase. Robert Pattinson took his unicorn patch on a fictitious date at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art with his ‘Remember Me’ co-star, Emilie de Ravin.

Snore.

Apparently, the two were shooting a photo spread for Vogue.

Via E!:

“Editors at the fashion bible are planning a multipage spread of the twosome for the mag’s annual Power Issue that rolls off the presses just in time for Remember Me’s March 12 release date.”

“The theme is a date at LACMA,” one source says.

“Photographer Norman Jean Roy is said to have shot them in several spots throughout the museum, including interior and exterior setups. ‘It’s kind of edgy in a Vogue way,’ the source says. ‘Emilie is wearing high fashion but it’s like sort of tattered-looking. Rob is mainly in suits.’”

Again, snore.

Someone wake me when Sparklepants is passed-out nude while Ravin shaves naughty words into his chest hair.

Robert Pattinson Named People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive 2009 – HOAX

What a HUGE surprise! Yea, that’s me being snarky.

new-moon-premiere-los-angeles-robert-pattinson-42

People Magazine has yet to formally announce their ‘Sexiest Man Alive’ of 2009, but Just Jared got his hands ahold of the cover and…wait for it…wait…. a HOAX has been pulled as rumors that Robert Pattinson has been bestowed the honor of giving ladies of all ages the hornies this year.

people-magazine-twitters-fake-cover-of-robert-pattinsons-sexiest-man-alive-cover

Via Twilighters Anonymous:

“In the third one (Eclipse), I’m doing fight scenes and there’s a strand going down my forehead and they’re like, ‘We need to do it again because no one will recognize you! No one will know who it is!’ I’m like, really, is my face that generic? I have to look like the poster at all times. Just in case they want to use any clip for the trailer. Any clip at all! There were about five people in different departments who, because of my forelock, ended up in tears.”

People will officially announce the REAL Sexiest Man Alive for 2009 tomorrow. Until then don’t believe the photoshopped cover floating around (shown below). It is actually a photo from the Vanity Fair outtakes thrown together by an overzealous Twilight fan.

Stephenie Meyer, May Do Another ‘Twlight’ Book – Oprah Videos

stephenie-meyer-on-oprah

The ‘Twlight Saga: New Moon’ pimping onslaught has begun. Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner are all making the talk-show rounds this week in anticipation for the movie’s release this Friday.

However, only the Mighty Oprah Winfrey was able to score an interview with ‘Twlight‘ author, Stephenie Meyer. The episode, which aired Friday, was pretty upbeat and Stephenie was quite chatty, even letting us know what she thinks about the choice of Pattinson to play the beloved vampire, Edward.

As for the question on Twi-hard minds eveywhere: Will there be a fifth book? Meyer gave a rather unclear answer.

Via MSNBC:

“I can’t answer it. The way I write, it’s what makes me happy. Like, I can’t write when people are looking over my shoulder. I am a little burned out on vampires right now. I think I need a little break. I might go spend some time with my aliens. I might do something completely different. I’ve got to cleanse the palate. I may come back to it. I did envision it as a longer series. But I wrapped ‘Breaking Dawn’ in a way that I felt satisfied with, so if that moment didn’t come, I’d be OK.”

Don’t worry kids, she’ll be all over that book once the hype…and money runs its course. Meyer was in the process of working on ‘Midnight Sun’ (the original 5th Twilight book) when the first 12 chapters leaked to the internet. It was basically the first installment of Twilight through Edward’s persepective. (Click HERE to read more on that.)

“When we were first doing the casting for this, I knew the problem was going to be Edward,” Meyer said. She said that Pattinson has “something about him, he doesn’t look like everybody else, there’s something unusual.”

Meyer didn’t seem sold on Pattinson taking the lead until she saw him in costume.

“I got on set, and he’s in makeup and in costume… all of a sudden he’s Edward. There are moments when he looks exactly like he did in my head.”

She even let’s us in on Sparklepants’ personal hygiene.

“He smells great. Rob is hilarious… he’s really fun to hang out with. He’s not at all like the Edward character… He’s so different as Rob. The eyes, the facial structure. He just doesn’t look like everybody else. In a very good way.”

Robert Pattinson’s Ideal Girlfriend

Robert Pattinson likes his ladies strong and dark…like my coffee.

robert-pattinson-vanity-fair-out-takes-100

In an interview with OK! Magazine, Sparklepants describes what he looks for in a full-time lover.

Via OK!:

“I like people who are strong and have a lot of darkness to them. If she’s attractive, it doesn’t really matter [laughs]! I kind of prefer that [women approach me] and if they’re a fan, it’s perfect.”

Pattinson was caught holding hands with his co-star Kristen Stewart yesterday (check out those photos by clicking here).

I guess she fits the “strong and dark” requirement he’s looking for, but so did Bea Arthur.

Robert Pattinson and Nicole Kidman to Make Erotic Film- UPDATE

nicole kidman robert-pattinson-as-edward-cullen-in-new-moon-1.jpg

Apparently, it’s a Nicole Kidman news day. This usually means that I down a bag of Better Made chips and a vodka martini before writing, but, when you throw in Robert Pattinson and the word ‘Erotic’, I can managed.

According to various reports, Sparklepants is taking his unicorn patch (as The Dame calls it) back to his native London in February in order to begin production of the film “Bel Ami” with Nicole Kidman.

production-weekly-robert-pattinson-twittter-1

“The story [is] about a young man’s rise to the top of Parisian high society in the 1890s, via the beds of the city’s most glamorous and influential women.”

This isn’t the first time Pattinson has made a sexually charged movie. The ‘Twilight’ star also played Salvadore Dali in ‘Little Ashes‘ last year which had him prancing around nearly nude and getting-it-on with his male co-star.

Production Weekly confirmed the news via their Twitter page pretty much confirming the news.

I am not sure how I feel about this Kittens. Though I never pass up an opportunity to see Sparklepants in films listed as “erotically charged,” the thought of him writhing around with Kidman makes me want to pop in my DVD of ‘Twilight’ and take a cold shower.

UPDATE:

According to the folks over at Gossip Cop-Kidman is already out. Or, was never really in to begin with.

Via Gossip Cop:

“What’s NOT true is that Kidman will star opposite Pattinson. While she did consider the project, the film’s timing didn’t work out. Kidman’s rep told Gossip Cop that ‘Bel Ami’ is ‘categorically not happening for her.’”

This has saved me from bringing a barf-bag to the premiere.

Robert Pattinson Likes to ‘Entertain’ Kristen Stewart While Drunk – Photos

Here is your daily dose of Robert Pattinson making sexy times with KStew brouhaha.

robert-pattinson-vanity-fair-10

Old Sparklepants took his unicorn patch to Vanity Fair and of course the mag addressed the rumors and stories of the elusive Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart dating. Both “Twilight” actors call the love stories “false” and eloquently state it’s all “retarded.”

“She’s influenced how I’ve done all the Twilight stuff. It’s quite nice to have someone who is genuinely indifferent to the whole spectacle of everything.” For the record, however, Pattinson says the rumors of a love affair are false: “It doesn’t make any difference what you say [to the tabloids]. I’ve literally been across the country [from Kristen], and it’s like ‘Oh, they were on secret dates!’ It’s like ‘Where? I can’t get out of my hotel room!’ ” Stewart is even more emphatic: “It’s so retarded,” she says. “We’re characters in this comic book.”

The director for the first film of the “Twilight” saga didn’t help by mentioning he spent his free time getting crunk and entertaining Kristen is his hotel room.

“What Rob and Kristen had is a multitude of feelings for each other. Complex feelings for each other,” says Hardwicke. “It was what we needed. Complex, intense fascination.”

I don’t think the world is ready for Sparklepants wearing nothing but a lampshade and singing “Show Me the Way to Go Home” while shaking his stanky leg for KStew, but it’s nice to know the possibility is there. I wonder if he did so wearing only the Edward Cullen undies?
