I’ve added more high quality candids of Robert & Kristen went to watch their friend, Marcus Foster to play gig at Dingwalls Bar in Camden on November 23, 2011.

I’ve added new candids photos of Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart heading to Marcus Foster concert in London on November 23, 2011.

Cool. What about the fact that Breaking Dawn is a two-parter? Knowing you’re also going to be scoring Part II, does where the story goes from here enter into the picture at all for you? When you’re thinking of these themes?

Well, I’ve read the script, but I haven’t seen any of Part II yet. But I did have to write a theme that Edward plays on camera in Part II. Bill wanted to echo the “Bella’s Lullaby” scene from the first Twilight in the last part, and so I had to write a lullaby for that well in advance so Rob Pattinson could learn the fingering – he’s a musician and prides himself on being able to do that.

So we know that’s an important part of Part II. And we hint at that theme in Part I. But honestly, it was quite a challenge for me to get my head around the 80 minutes of music for this one. My scores are usually half that. So I didn’t give very much thought to Part II while I was doing Part I.

The next morning, I saw a frogman on the opposite river bank. Security was on high alert, a crew member told me. That morning, paparazzi in wet suits had tried to swim past. An extra with a camera had been ejected the day before. All of them seeking a $100,000 photo of the bride.

Before the ceremony, Robert Pattinson stood around being handsome and smoking at every chance. Kristen Stewart looked amazing in her modest gown, but appeared freaked out about something. They cuddled and he seemed to console her. It was a real-life drama playing out before us and all we extras could do was gawk. Aw, how sweet, they really love each other.

Then, a helicopter began to circle and production stopped. Walkie-talkies spouted angry instructions, security people scurried, and giant black umbrellas were opened over the actors to block views from the air. The battle against the paparazzi was on and we sat freezing for two hours waiting for a truce.

Cosmopolis Director, David Cronenberg has mentioned Robert Pattinson & Casting. Thanks again to Pattinsonlife for the news consolidation.

From Cinemablend

Working with Robert Pattinson in Cosmopolis, is it that same process of really focusing on your actor and giving him a lot of freedom?
He’s in every scene. It’s quite a different structure from A Dangerous Method. I think the only similarity really is that there’s a lot of dialogue, but it’s a very different kind of dialogue, a completely different kind of movie. I did shoot it even more ascetically. We finished 5 days early, and I did my director’s cut in two days. That’s a record for me. And yet it seems to work really well. Basically you’re not giving your editors much to work with. At moments he was begging me to do coverage and I wouldn’t. I said I don’t need that closeup, I don’t want that. I’m confident that letting it hang in the long shot is the way to do it. There are classic mistakes that young directors make, they get so enamored of this tricky dolly shot or steadicam shot, then they don’t want to do closeups because they think they’ve done this genius shot, then in the editing room they realize all the emotion, they can’t see it. you have to do closeups. But that’s a lesson you learn very early on in your career as a director. You have to have unshakeable confidence if you’re not going to do that coverage. You have to know this is exactly what I want it to be.

From Gothamist

Viggo Mortensen, Magneto, and a movie with Rob Pattinson next, with all that Twilight hoopla around him. You don’t mind stars with franchise baggage it seems.
It’s like with Viggo with The Lord of the Rings, frankly. We’ve talked about this a lot. He wouldn’t have been a candidate for A History of Violence if it hadn’t been for Lord of the Rings because he wasn’t well-known, he was really kind of a B actor, character actor before Lord of the Rings made him a star. Therefore, he would not be somebody who could get you the financing that you need. It’s something about casting that people don’t think about but as a director, you really have to think about it because your producers make you think about it and so do your distributors. You say, “I want this guy,” and they say “Forget it! Nobody knows who he is and we can’t build a campaign around him to release to movie.” So not only do you have to get the right guy, you have to figure out who that guy is creatively but he has to want to do it to, you have to be able to afford him, he has to be available at the time you want him and he has to have the star power to get your movie financed. It’s very tricky casting a movie and for a director it’s a huge part of what you do, to weave your way through this mine field and end up with the right guy in your movie. Because if you make a huge miscasting mistake, it can kill your movie before you’ve even shot a foot of film.

Have you ever made any huge casting mistakes?
Yes, but I won’t talk about them! [laughs] But not enough to kill the movie, I must say. There are only one or two that I would maybe have rethought. But you get lucky sometimes and sometimes the right person not only says yes and sometimes the right person says no. In other words, for some reason you’ve decided to go with somebody and you later realize, “Thank god that guy didn’t do the movie because this guy is the right guy.” But about Rob Pattinson, yeah, of course, if it weren’t for Twilight I don’t think we could have financed the movie around him because he wouldn’t be known. But aside from that, that was a good thing not a bad thing and of course I have to think about all that.

Especially with a movie that’s so focused on one character.
Absolutely. You make a bad choice and you’ve killed your movie right away or at least you’re staggering through it trying desperately to compensate for what’s not there that should have been there. I felt really lucky to have Rob, he’s fantastic, and I think people will see that it’s obvious. I don’t think it’s going to be a surprise.

From Bloomberg News

Warner: The film stars Robert Pattinson of “The Twilight Saga” series. Do you think he can escape his vampire pigeonhole?
Cronenberg: He’s a terrific actor, which will be obvious when you see the movie. Any director who’s looking to see what he can do will see that he can do a lot.

David Cronenberg is still promoting “A Dangerous Method” and keeps talking about Rob and “Cosmopolis” . Thanks to Pattinsonlife for the consolidation.

From The LA Times

R.K.: Your next film is “Cosmopolis,” which is adapted from a Don DeLillo novel. What can you tell me about it?

D.C.: It’s the story of a young billionaire played by Rob Pattinson who travels across Manhattan to get a haircut. That’s the plot. Robert’s a very underestimated actor. I think he’ll blow some people away

From Living in Cinema

JT: In addition to budgetary reasons, do you prefer shooting in one or two takes for creative reasons as well?
DC: I did the same with A Dangerous Method and the same with my latest movie Cosmopolis. One or two takes…if you’re working properly with your actor and your actor is properly prepared, you don’t need more than that. The idea of doing ninety-nine takes like David Fincher is supposed to have done…it’s a completely different way of filmmaking.

JT: Cosmopolis is slated for next year, which is a return to screenwriting for you and features a stellar cast. What can you tell us about it, in particular Robert Pattinson, who seems a unique choice for a Cronenberg leading man?
DC: I think he’s kind of parallel to [Knightley] really. I think he’s a very underrated actor who’s really good. And so he proved to be. I think he’s fantastic in the movie… He’s really great. You can ask Paul Giamatti who’s said that publicly, because he does a big scene with him. Cosmopolis is based on a novel by Don DeLillo. It couldn’t be more different from A Dangerous Method, except that it to has a lot of dialogue. But it’s a very different kind of dialogue. You’ll have to wait and see.

I don’t get the allure of Robert Pattinson.

You heard me. And in possible danger of being mauled by almost every member of the female species, I admit that I’ve never understood the mass hysteria surrounding good ol’ R-Putz, I mean, R-Pattz.

Sure, that Pattinson plays Edward Cullen in the Twilight movies might have something to do with it.

Truth be told, when the British actor was cast as Cullen, the 17 million-or-so fans of the Twilight books duly erupted with the kind of hatred usually reserved for animal abusers or hipsters. They all thought Pattinson was way too ugly to be Mr Perfectly Undead. Cullen, by the way, is described as “the most beautiful creature who has ever been born” by Twilight author Stephanie Meyer.

The laugh’s on them, of course. Pattinson, 25, is the king of that ridiculously popular and successful film franchise – the first three films have already grossed over US$1.8 billion (S$2.34 billion) worldwide.

Pattinson has gone from being a Harry Potter supporting actor (remember Cedric Diggory – the one who died in The Goblet Of Fire?) into one of the sought-after men on the planet.

The hysteria he causes wherever he goes is often compared with Beatlemania or er, Bieber fever. Time magazine listed him as one of 100 Most influential People In The World; Forbes magazine said he was the 50th most powerful celebrity in the world; Vanity Fair dubbed him “the most handsome man in the world”.

However, none of that had any impact on me – until I sat down for a chat with the man himself at Four Seasons in Beverly Hills, that is. He was, of course, promoting Breaking Dawn – Part 1, the first of the two-part finale to The Twillight Saga film series.

Scruffy, with a baseball cap worn backwards, dirty fingernails and unkempt stubble, I wondered where the Byronic hero girls scream at and cry over was. The guy was actually wearing a ratty white T-shirt with big gaping holes!

And not in a trendy way. But that’s exactly when I finally got why the world was going rah-rah over R-Pattz. He’s personable, easy-going and constantly snickering, and is the polar opposite of the sullen Twilight hero.

He crunches ice while listening to questions and then laughs when he realises cannot answer because he’s gobbled one too many cubes. He laughs all the time and unguardedly touches my arm when he’s making a point.

And one can see how in love he is with Kristen Stewart (who plays Pattinson’s onscreen love, Bella.)

His funniest moment making Breaking Dawn is the fact that Taylor Lautner, who plays werewolf Jacob, has a relationship with a seven-year-old girl, Renesmee (the half human-half vampire daughter of Edward and Bella).

“I thought that was very funny! Haha! I don’t think I have ever laughed so much than at the scenes of them together,” he said, with a twinkle in his eye. A wickedly funny ice-cruncher with a devil-may-care attitude?

I get you now, R-Pattz.

How different is prepping for Edward compared to the last three times?

I guess the hardest thing about the Twilight movies every single time is thinking how not to repeat yourself. Especially when you’re playing the same character and especially when it’s so specific that your image never changes. (Edward) never sweats. He never cries. He never gets dirty. His hair never changes … it’s very difficult not to look exactly the same all the time (smiles). As more movies go by, it’s harder and harder to think of it. But I guess this one is specifically different because, he actually changes for a second. It’s a slightly different part and it actually became easier to prepare for it. I felt that it was more natural …

Was filming your last scene all tears or all whoops of joy that it was over?

I remember I had to go for the international press tour for Water For Elephants the next day and we were on a night shoot. So two hours later, I had to go home and pack, and then go out again! That was my last day and that was really exciting! (Laughs) But Kristen and I did another “last day”, in the Caribbean when we had to do one or two additional shots – part of the honeymoon stuff. Now that was amazing! That felt like a really good farewell. Because it was just me, Kristen, and the crew – just spending all night on the beach. And then the sun started coming up and everybody had cocktails … that was a really nice way to say goodbye to the series.

Did you nick anything off set for remembrance?

Well, as the series went on, I started getting them to order more clothes for the character that I liked. And so I got a bunch of jeans and stuff. (Laughs)

I’ve added new productions stills of “Breaking Dawn Part 1″ featured in “People” Magazine to the gallery. Thanks to @epnebelle for the scans.
