Christina Ricci stars alongside Robert Pattinson in the upcoming film Bel Ami, and recently gushed about her co-star calling him, “a great guy.”

“He’s such a dedicated actor,” she told OnTheRedCarpet.com about working with the Twilight Saga star. “It’s fun to work with someone who is genuinely not jaded and who loves films.”

The two apparently had a lot of fun on set as well. “He’s so sweet and funny and we make fun of each other and laugh. We’re silly together. We just really had a good time,” Ricci said.

Everybody who was anybody (not at the Lady Gaga concert) was at AT&T’s launch party for the new Blackberry Torch last night in Los Angeles.

We had a chance to catch up with one of our fave actresses since forevah, Christina Ricci—who dished to us about her upcoming flick Bel Ami with Robert Pattinson. Like how steamy their loves scenes got and how R.Pattz had a special lady we all know and love come and visit him on set. Let the dishing begin!

“It was really fun, I mean just aesthetically we wore amazing costumes and hair and make up was great,” Ricci told us at the fab party about her new flick. “And working with Rob was amazing. He’s such a great guy, so talented.”

Well, since she brought him up we might as well get the on-set dirt from her:

“He’s just great. We’d just make fun of each other the whole time, like ‘oh my god we’re so goofy’ or ‘my accent is so bad!’”

After the Total Film article about ‘Bel Ami’ release date, Bel Ami Film contacted Protagonist Pictures to check the “December 2011″ date.

Protagonist Pictures’ reply:
There’s no distributor attached to the film in the US as yet so therefore no release date. No confirmation on the UK yet either I’m afraid – we’ll post this info on our website as soon as there is a definite date. I think the ETA on Total Film is purely speculative at this stage.

According to Independent Films, the distributor for ‘Bel Ami, the Dutch release date is February 17, 2011. Thanks to Pattinsonlife for the info!

I’ve added a brand new still of Robert Pattinson in ‘Bel Ami’ movie to the gallery.

I’ve added new high quality stills of Robert Pattinson from the movie, ‘Bel Ami’ to the gallery. These are the first official images from the movie.

The first official images from Bel Ami starring Robert Pattinson, Uma Thurman, Kristin Scott Thomas, Christina Ricci and Colm Meaney have been released and we’ve got them in high resolution after the jump. The film which also stars Philip Glenister and Holliday Grainger was shot on locations in and around London and Budapest during an eleven week shoot. Shooting wrapped on April 22nd.

Directed by Declan Donnellan and Nick Ormerod, the film is an erotically charged story of ambition, power and seduction. Georges Duroy (Robert Pattinson), travels through 1890s Paris, from cockroach ridden garrets to opulent salons, using his wits and powers of seduction to rise from poverty to wealth, from a prostitute’s embrace to passionate trysts with wealthy beauties, in a world where politics and media jostle for influence, where sex is power and celebrity an obsession.

Here’s some more info on the film and further down are the images:

Uma Thurman (Kill Bill) is Madeleine, Kristin Scott Thomas (Nowhere Boy) is Virginie, Christina Ricci (Monster) is Clotilde, Colm Meaney (The Damned United) is Rousset, Philip Glenister (Life on Mars) is Charles and Holliday Grainger (Scouting Book for Boys) is Suzanne.

The screenplay is by Rachel Bennette from the novel by Guy de Maupassant. Uberto Pasolini (The Full Monty) is the Producer and Simon Fuller is Executive Producer. The Director of Photography is Stefano Falivene (Carmel); Attila F. Kovacs (Sunshine) is Production Designer; Costumes are designed by Odile Dicks-Mireaux (An Education); Hair and Make-up is by Jenny Shircore (The Young Victoria) and the Editor is Masahiro Hirakubo (The Duchess).

I’ve added the first still of Robert Pattinson and Uma Thurman in ‘Bel Ami’ movie. The film will be promoted at Cannes Film Festival.
