In a new interview with the Pundit Review, Eric Maddox chatted about Mission: Blacklist and the decision to cast Rob in the lead role.
Eric talks about having the final decision on casting Rob, which he called a ‘no brainer’, meeting with Rob for 14 hours earlier this month and Rob’s commitment to the project, and a bit more about the film.

Thanks everyone for participating. Looking forward to our next giveaway. Love giving Rob’s fans the chance to own a little piece of his movie history.
I’m so hoping this is true. Rob with Phillip Seymour Hoffman – seriously I might just pee my pants. Remember when Phillip thought he could get away with the beanie at the Oscars. I absolutely loved him in 25th Hour with Ed Norton – no I love Phillip S-H in everything he does pretty much. Jesus – please be true.
“Benaroya, who co-produced “Margin Call” last year, is fully financing “Kill Your Darlings,” a $4 million thriller with Daniel Radcliffe and Michael C. Hall about young beat poets Allen Ginsburg and Jack Kerouac and a murder.
And he’s also financing the $11 million “Hate Mail,” with Scarlett Johansson, Robert Pattinson and Philip Seymour Hall [Maria: surely this is a typo and it’s Hoffman) . And he executive produced “The Paperboy,” also screening in competition in Cannes.
That’s a lot of money to be throwing down. Benaroya, apart from noting that he’s only lost money on one movie he’s made thus far, said he likes to gamble.
“I’m a serious poker player,” he said. “People like to underestimate me: ‘You look 25. You look like a nice guy. I’m gonna take you for everything you’ve got.’ They’re often surprised when they don’t.””
And here’s an article from Variety in September 2011:
“Writing-directing team Ryan Fleck and Anna Boden, who became darlings of the indie scene following “Half Nelson” and “Sugar,” have set their next picture, a drama titled “Hate Mail.”
Project will be fully financed by Wayfare Entertainment, which previously produced Fleck and Boden’s adaptation of Ned Vizzini’s novel “It’s Kind of a Funny Story.”
“Hate Mail” will feature interweaving stories about several Manhattanites who encounter various iterations of hate mail and grapple with the subsequent fallout of their relationships.
…”
Will keep you informed.
PS. Rob we could give you some advice about receiving hate mail.
With the impending release of Bel Ami in Oz on Thursday, I’ve been a little nervous on what the Aussie reviewers will say. So here’s two – one good, one not so good. Don’t say that I’m not fair.
“Robert Pattinson broods and swoons his way through this beautifully shot costume drama from a duo of theatre veterans
Guy de Maupassant’s second novel, Bel Ami, or, The History of a Scoundrel, is ideal fodder for a cinematic costume outing. The subject of several films, including Germany’s Bel Ami (1939) and the first English-language, The Private Affairs of Bel Ami (1947), it is surprising that this hasn’t been given the lavish post-Merchant-Ivory production values until now. Yet rather than falling to the familiar roster of BBC graduates, British stage veterans Declan Donnellan and Nick Ormerod get behind the cameras for the first time for this sumptuous adaptation.
…
Outside of the Twilight Saga franchise, star Pattinson has had little success in securing any major crossover roles, with Water for Elephants and Remember Me sharing some critical if not box office success. Bel Ami won’t be the film that proves Pattinson to be a box office draw in his own right, but it does solidify his ability to transition between genres, and his upcoming work with David Cronenberg on Cosmopolis will undoubtedly push this over the edge. While his role is largely a mixture of brooding and seducing, Pattinson is the consummate nineteenth century rogue, and perhaps the perfect choice for Georges.
…
A beautifully shot piece by Italian cinematographer Stefano Falivene, Bel Ami ticks all the right boxes in an adaptation of this kind. Supporting cast Glenister and the ubiquitous Colm Meaney bring a richness to this well-crafted world. Donnellan and Ormerod never reveal their stage origins in the execution, and nor does screenwriter Rachel Bennette, who reduces the complexities of Guy de Maupassant to an accessible tale of winners who take all without consequence.”
Thanks Cindy for sending this our way. As usual, click on the link to read the full review.
