I love how much respect Rob earns from everyone he works with.
This interview with Daniel Arrias who is the stunt coordinator / trainer for The Batman happened in October 2020 and I’ve started the interview where they start talking The Batman (58.07). During this excerpt Daniel says “that’s who I was talking about before” and thanks to Monsieur_HJ she has extracted that excerpt.
“I’m working with a someone right now who is not an athlete, who is a great actor….”
“I’m working with a man right now who is not an athlete. Great young actor,he’s putting so much effort..I have so much respect for that..He trained with me 2hr a day. A younger guy coming up that has that attitude,just love it just love it”- fight trainer 🦇 on Robert Pattinson pic.twitter.com/MgiLBnl9ak
Bringing this forward today for obvious reasons. I originally posted this on 2 April 2012. It’s from Rob’s Meet the Directors & Actor Q&A for Twilight with Catherine Hardwicke on 3 November 2008. It’s still available on iTunes if you want to listen.
Apple … Rob at the Apple Store in 2008 of course. I loved listening to that interview. I remember it was where I heard Rob say that Hollywood needed to change – to make films not because they were going to make tonnes of money, but because the story was worth making. His idea was that this change needed to come from within Hollywood. I’d love to know what he thinks about that now seeing as he’s on the inside of the machine. I mean I guess with his film choices it shows he hasn’t really swayed from what he believes, but it’s a shame the gossip hacks don’t bother doing any research so they can ask him questions like that. Anyhoo here’s one of my fave photos from that day
Producer Rob is on his way. We knew he wasn’t just sitting around doing nothing since finishing filming The Batman and honestly I’m not surprised WB picked up on Rob’s eclectic eye for finding quirky projects and talented directors. From Deadline:
Warner Bros is doubling down with its The Batmanstar Robert Pattinson as the studio, along with New Line Cinema, Warner Bros Television and HBO Max, have made an overall first-look production deal with him.
“Warner Bros Pictures and HBO have always been synonymous with groundbreaking filmmaking,” Pattinson said. “I’m thrilled to be working with them to discover the most exciting new voices in film and television and help bring their visions to life. I’ve loved working with the studio over the years and have so much respect for their dedication, their willingness to take chances and their desire to push the envelope creatively.”
The deal is for theatrical, SVOD (HBO Max) and WBTV properties. The deal represents the actor’s first foray into producing.
“We have been incredibly impressed with Rob’s eye for identifying dynamic new filmmakers. Additionally, he is continually nurturing exciting story ideas into compelling screenplays. We are so excited that Warner Bros and New Line will be his home and that we get to benefit from his creative, commercial passions,” said Courtenay Valenti, President, Production and Development for Warner Bros Pictures, and Richard Brener, President & Chief Creative Officer of New Line Cinema.
The deal is the actor’s first foray into the world of producing.
Warner Bros. is going all in with Robert Pattinson, the star of its upcoming relaunched Batman movie franchise.
Pattinson has signed an overall first-look production deal that encompasses the whole spectrum of Warner divisions, including Warner Bros. Pictures, New Line Cinema, Warner Bros. Television, and HBO Max.
The deal, which represents the actor’s first foray into producing, also takes into account a range of releasing platforms, among them theatrical, SVOD and television.
…
[The Batman] movie wrapped production earlier this year and a signing of an overall first-look is a symbol that Warners likes what it sees so far. The movie is due to be released March 4, 2022.
Rob’s going for world domination makes my heart sing.
And for those who are unsure of what is a “first look deal” between a production company and/or actor and a film studio is an agreement under which the film studio usually pays the actor/production company a development fee for the right to have the first look at the new material before others in the industry get access to it.”
This is new to me in both colour and black and white. Rob during The Lighthouse premiere in Cannes in 2019. Cannot believe it was just over 2 years ago. If you want to reminisce click on our Master Post HERE
I would be more surprised if Rob wasn’t trolling when he came up with his cornflakes, sugar and cheese piccolini cuscino (“little pillow”), but I’m sure he’s be chuffed that it won a YouTube competition “Which Celebrity Makes the Best Pasta”. This is from November last year but somehow I missed it – love their reactions when they realise who the creator of the recipe is.
Still laughing that anyone would attempt to make this .
