We love a guy who keeps it real! Even though he’s enjoyed his five-year stint playing ‘Twilight’s’ Edward Cullen, R-Patz gets blunt about the pros and cons of being known as one of the hottest fangers.
Robert Pattinson, 25, is looking forward to his post-Twilight career.
“Doing something like Twilight opens doors and it closes others,” he says in an interview with The Herald Scotland. “You can say, ‘Oh if I was still unknown, then no-one would judge me,’ but at the same time, nobody would give a s*** either.”
He continues: “It’s a weird little balance. And, most of the time, you are just completely guessing what people do, so I suppose doing scripts that you think are good is the way to go. And that’s what I thought about Bel Ami…there is something quite fun about going from Edward Cullen to playing a guy who pretty much abuses women to get money out of them.”
But Rob isn’t trying to run away from what propelled his acting career.
“I don’t think about doing things just because they are different from Twilight, no. Honestly, Bel Ami was just such an intriguing film.”
Bel Ami, which co-stars Uma Thurman, Kristin Scott Thomas, and Christina Ricci, opens in theaters on March 2.
