Robert Pattinson talks The Lighthouse for upcoming releases

We have been spoilt the last few days with new interviews from Rob promoting The Lighthouse (especially for its UK release). Here are a few more for you to sit back and enjoy.

Robert Pattinson has told RTÉ Entertainment that he learned all about the “demonic glint” in co-star Willem Dafoe’s eye while they were making the maritime masterpiece The Lighthouse.

“As soon as I saw him once in the kind of early makeup thing I was like, ‘Oh, you’ve got like a whole thing. You know what you’re doing with this’,” he recounted. “And at the time I didn’t know at all how I was going to play my part! He’s just got such great technique and so much energy, so funny. It just seems so effortless to him.”

Pattinson said trying to keep up with Dafoe was a test of endurance.

“He just has this energy, this indefatigable energy, where it’s just take after take!” he laughed. “We’ll finish a take and almost every take he’s like, ‘Again!’. And I’m like, ‘God! I can’t!'” 

“There’s that little sparkle in his eye where – especially with a character like this – he kind of wants you to fail! It’s a funny thing when you’re trying to psyche yourself up to destroy him and there’s still this little demonic glint in his eye afterwards! It becomes very real very quickly!”

Associated Press Robert Pattinson says he could live on a deserted island like his character in “The Lighthouse” because he “quite likes menial tasks” and also doesn’t “care about being praised

Robert Pattinson King of Clickbait calls Twilight AN “Arthouse movie”

Nicholas Barber of BBC Culture spoke with Rob about his career on the eve of The Lighthouse being released in the UK. Below is an extract, but you can read the full interview by clicking on the link above:

“I literally started this year with no job,” he says, referring to 2019. “I remember my agent saying, ‘You’re not really on anybody’s list. The movies are well reviewed, but they aren’t big hits.’ And then a week later I got another call out of the blue: ‘Do you want to be in a Chris Nolan movie?’ I was like: ‘Wait – how did that happen?

As well as featuring in Christopher Nolan’s time-twisting thriller, Tenet, which is released in July, Pattinson is squeezing into the bat suit vacated by Ben Affleck to star in Matt Reeves’ The Batman. But he maintains that he is not plunging into the Hollywood mainstream. Nolan, he argues, is an indie auteur who just happens to have colossal budgets at his disposal, and Batman is one of the “crazy and perverse” characters he usually plays. “Out of all the big roles that I knew of in that kind of realm,” he muses, “there was just something about this one.”

Maybe Pattinson can teach us all a lesson about having the courage of our convictions. By sticking to his own niche taste in films, he gets to be one of the saviours of arthouse cinema – and yet he gets to flirt with blockbusters and be the saviour of Gotham City, too. Who else has a career like his? The only actor who springs to mind, strangely enough, is Pattinson’s Twilight co-star and ex-girlfriend, Kristen Stewart. He grins so widely at this comparison that his eyes crinkle up and disappear. “That’s because no one realised that Twilight was an arthouse movie. It’s part of the same thing. In a few years, people will suddenly realise – ah, it was arthouse! I totally missed it!”

Robert Pattinson featured on the cover of TimeOut (London)

Below are extracts from TimeOut London’s recent interview with Rob and photos from another great photoshoot by Andy Parsons. The full interview is available in this week’s Time Out (which you can purchase HERE):

Oddball? Goth? Robert Pattinson is actually a laugh

Robert Pattinson is every bit as intense as you might expect. He rests his famously chiselled chin on a clenched fist and considers the question I’ve put to him. ‘How do you make a spectacular wank?’ he muses. ‘A prize-winning wank?’

The London-born actor is telling me about a memorable episode in his latest film, ‘The Lighthouse’. It is, in his own words, a ‘ferocious masturbation scene’. To make matters more bizarre, they shot it on the opening day of filming. ‘It was fun doing it on the first day,’ he admits. ‘It was an icebreaker.’

Was there an element of wanting to impress director Robert Eggers? ‘We’d just done a week of rehearsals where I’d basically hidden everything from him,’ he says. ‘I felt I had to prove myself on the first day, so I went [for] the most extreme and grotesque… grotesquery.’

So how do you conjure up a ‘prize-winning wank’? He looks me in the eye and says in all seriousness: ‘Throw up on yourself.’

He reflects on this for a second. ‘They didn’t use that take in the end,’ he recalls. ‘It was a bit too much.’

Robert Pattinson talks Dior, Twitter, Podcasts and More with W Mag

Robert Pattinson talks to W Magazine ahead of the launch of the new Dior Homme. Here’s an extract, but you can read the entire interivew by clicking on the link above:

Can you remember the first fragrance you ever wore? 

I was thinking about this earlier. I think it was Joe Bloggs. I think my dad had it. Do you know the kind you get at a gas station and it just says “cologne”? I think it was that, or maybe Old Spice. I used to pretend to shave when I was a kid before I needed to shave and I put it on all the cream and everything and then did the whole process.

What is your earliest memory of fragrance beyond that?

I used to put it on when I’d be on holiday with my sisters. They’d be teenagers getting ready and I’d put on some kind of after shave and then grease my hair back with Vaseline and put it into a little rattail ponytail at the back and put on cycling shorts and everyone had to call me Johnny.

What is the first thing you read in the morning?

Google myself. Just kidding. I really like Twitter. My Twitter feed is really good now because I’ve kind of got the most eclectic sort of sources of anything you could really possibly imagine. I have no idea what’s happening in the normal news whatsoever, but I know really random stuff all the time. 

What podcasts have you been into lately?

I really do like the true crime ones—I think I play those most. You know what else I really love, which I think is so funny, Dear Joan and Jericha. And there’s this thing called Man In the Window, which was absolutely terrifying, which I fell asleep on a plane listening to and had the most awful nightmare. Absolutely awful story.

Robert Pattinson talks to WWD

imgbox

WWD interviewed Rob in Paris yesterday and this is what Rob had to say about a few things:

New Dior Campaign

“I really do like all the products from the line,” said Pattinson. “The new one, it smells delicious.”

The Blaze, comprised of cousins Guillaume Alric and Jonathan Alric, directed the film campaign for the latest fragrance.

“They’re great directors,” said Pattinson, referring also to Romain Gavras, who lensed the prior Dior Homme ad. “I wanted to work with them anyway, to do other things.”

Pattinson saw The Blaze’s treatment — elements of the screenplay — for the new campaign way before it was filmed, and it included dance.

“I don’t dance — at all. Ever,” admitted the actor, who recently was in movies such as “The Lighthouse,” “Waiting for the Barbarians” and “The King.” “The best parts of their music videos are always a kind of interesting, experimental dance sequence. I think subconsciously I really wanted to do that, but I just don’t have the capability.

“When I saw the treatment, I was terrified for months going into it, dreaded the day when it was going to happen,” Pattinson said.

Fast-forward to that day, when he ended up in an empty club in Brooklyn, N.Y., on a spotlighted dance floor. Pattinson danced there, while The Blaze guys danced in sympathy near the camera, so he didn’t feel too alone.
