Robert Pattinson has two films at this year’s Venice Film Festival

Venice Film Festival announced its lineup last night and Rob has two films premiering at the festival. The King will have its world premiere, but is out of competition, but Waiting for the Barbarians will be in competition for its world premiere. Here’s hoping Rob’s filming schedule allows him to attend and that the film may take home the Golden Lion.

That’s 3 films at 2 film festivals in September if we include The Lighthouse at TIFF.

Robert Pattinson “The Lighthouse” and “Waiting for the Barbarians” Could be in the 2020 Oscar / Bafta Race

Screen Daily has included The Lighthouse and Waiting for the Barbarians in its early predictions for the 2020 Baftas and Oscars:

Further US contenders come in the guise of horror The Lighthouse from Robert Eggers (The Witch) and starring Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson; James Mangold’s Ford v. Ferrari starring Christian Bale and Matt Damon; and Scott Z. Burns’ The Report with Adam Driver, which was acquired by Amazon at Sundance for around $14m. Tom Hooper’s star-studded Cats adaptation, could also make a splash, especially in the music and tech categories, while Ciro Guerro’s English-language JM Coetze adaptation Waiting For The Barbarians,starring Johnny Depp, Robert Pattinson and Mark Rylance, seems likely to be in the conversation.  [My emphasis]
