Robert Pattinson Part of 4th Annual Indie Contenders Panel at 31st AFI Festival on 12 November 2017

You had me at “generating awards buzz“.  From The Hollywood Reporter:

Eight filmmakers currently generating awards buzz for their work on independent films unveiled in 2017 will appear at the 31st AFI Fest on the fourth annual Indie Contenders Panel, hosted by The Hollywood Reporter.

This year’s participants will be Sean Baker (co-writer and director, The Florida Project); Richard Gere (lead actor, Norman: The Moderate Rise and Tragic Fall of a New York Fixer); Salma Hayek (lead actress, Beatriz at Dinner); Diane Kruger (lead actress, In the Fade); Kumail Nanjiani (co-writer and lead actor, The Big Sick); Robert Pattinson (lead actor, Good Time); Margot Robbie (lead actress, I, Tonya); and Lois Smith (supporting actress, Marjorie Prime).

The panel will take place over 90 minutes on Nov. 12 in front of 200 AFI Fest badgeholders and ticketholders at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. It will feature clips and conversation about the challenges and rewards of making indie films. Video will exclusively appear on this blog shortly thereafter.

Selfishly I hope Sean Baker and Rob have a conversation – just putting it out there.  Would love for them to work together. Also, it’s a fab time to be a Rob fan – loving all the positive recognition he’s receiving.
