Jamie talked Rob to Variety in relation to an article where he slams fan backlash about casting, which he’s more than familiar with considering the backlash when he was cast in 50 Shades
“Prejudgment is such a fucking disease,” Dornan recently told Esquire about fan backlash to high profile casting announcements. “It’s a disease in all our culture. In my line of work, sure. But in general, people prejudge people based on fucking anything really, and it’s very sad. Look at the reaction when Rob got cast as Batman. It was like 90% negative.”
…
Circling back to Pattinson, Dornan added, “And all the naysayers love what Rob has done with Batman.”

Poor Jamie answering questions about Rob all night. PS. Aussies if you have Stan you should watch Jamie in The Tourist. Ending was a little annoying but he’s so good in it. Video starts when Jamie is asked about Rob, Andrew Garfield and Eddie Redmayne.
“We never left [Pattinson] at home. Why would you leave him at home. He’s the key. He was the good looking one. He was the one that got us in [to the clubs]”
These reporters, ugh, they are always looking for clickbait. Dornan perhaps brought it on himself by talking about RP as if he were a roommate of his and such. RP clarified that he was not their roommate and he was younger they were (by 3-4 years) and joked they would go to bars leaving him out because he was not yet 21. He also subtly implied that he was not a regular in their group joking he was invited as an afterthought. May be RP's videos to give context for what RP actually said than listening to the reporter paraphrase.
