Robert Pattinson talks Tenet with Total Film

Total Film’s 14 page Tenet exclusive will feature extended interviews with the main cast. Below is an extract from Rob’s interview thanks to Games Radar:

Describing Tenet, Robert Pattinson makes the analogy of a plate-spinner. “There’s a point where you’re like, it’s kind of cool, and it becomes so insane that it’s almost frightening,” he laughs. “I sound like such a moron talking about this stuff. Because on top of the, uh – how would I even say this? Quite advanced theoretical physics; I think I’m allowed to say that – it’s just got a billion different ways to read it.” He gasps, breathless. “It’s so complicated; if it wasn’t Chris Nolan doing it, you’d be like, ‘This is an impossible movie.’”

Robert Pattinson scene in trailer includes the crashing of a real plane

From Games Radar:

Total Film can reveal a little more about one of Tenet’s biggest set-pieces – one that required the production team to purchase and then crash a real 747 into a hangar. 

You read that correctly. That’s not a partial fibreglass replica of a jet. Not CGI. This is a real aeroplane, bought by the production. 

“I planned to do it using miniatures and set-piece builds and a combination of visual effects and all the rest,” Nolan tells TF. However, while scouting for locations in Victorville, California, the team discovered a massive array of old planes. “We started to run the numbers… It became apparent that it would actually be more efficient to buy a real plane of the real size, and perform this sequence for real in camera, rather than build miniatures or go the CG route.”

Call it a spur-of-the-moment purchase. “It’s a strange thing to talk about – a kind of impulse buying, I suppose,” laughs Nolan. “But we kind of did, and it worked very well, with Scott Fisher, our special-effects supervisor, and Nathan Crowley, the production designer, figuring out how to pull off this big sequence in camera. It was a very exciting thing to be a part of.”

Robert Pattinson also remembers the plane sequence with a laugh. “You wouldn’t have thought there was any reality where you would be doing a scene where they just have an actual 747 to blow up! It’s so bold to the point of ridiculousness… I remember, as we were shooting it, I was thinking, ‘How many more times is this even going to be happening in a film at all?’”

Screen Rant breaks down the second #Tenet Movie Trailer featuring a lot more Robert Pattinson

With the release of the second trailer for Tenet we see a lot more of Rob’s character. Below are a few excerpts relating to Rob from Screen Rant’s break down (click on the link to read the full article):

Tenet’s latest trailer provides more insight into figures introduced in the December footage. Washington is evidently a fresh recruit into this shadowy, time-bending organization, but he’s also shown explaining how the trick works to Pattinson’s character. Either both men are relatively fresh to the world of Tenet, or there’s some kind of time reversal at play, with Washington simultaneously a trainee and a mentor. We learn that Washington’s character isn’t the stereotypical reckless secret agent with a death wish; he’s planning on dying peacefully as an old man. Pattinson has more lines in this trailer, and he comes across as a well-spoken upper-class Brit in the traditional Bond mold.

Robert Pattinson Plays… Christopher Nolan?!

Christopher Nolan’s films have previously included characters that partially resembled or mirrored the director himself in some way. In Inception, for instance, Leonardo DiCaprio’s Cobb is confirmed to be have some qualities of Nolan’s, and many of the cast represent an aspect of filmmaking, with Cobb’s role in the dream heist plot akin to that of a movie’s director. It appears that Robert Pattinson’s figure could perform a similar function in Tenet, and this is especially clear when the character begins describing a dramatic plane crash sequence. Interestingly, Nolan has the good taste to ensure he’s always represented by the best-looking of actors.

…

The second new action scene teased is of Washington and Pattinson jumping from a great height. This doesn’t appear to be an Inversion, so the pair might just be hoping the tents below will cushion their fall. Furthermore, Pattinson’s character suggests crashing a plane along the ground in dramatic fashion, and the trailer gives a brief glimpse of this biblical, explosive sequence.

Robert Pattinson featured in James Mottram’s “The Secrets of Tenet”
