Ruby Jerins Discusses Rob

By: admin On March 12, 2010 | Filed under: Article

If your co-stars are Pierce Brosnan and Robert Pattinson, it would be easy to get overshadowed. However, 11-year old Ruby Jerins managed to hold her own in the upcoming drama Remember Me, even stealing a few scenes. The talented Jerins spoke to RadarOnline.com between a busy school day and a night filled with homework.

While she may not have been familiar with all of her co-stars’ work before signing on for the film (she watched New Moon with her dad after filming wrapped on Remember Me), she quickly got to know her hunky onscreen brother and gave him two thumbs up.

“Rob’s great! He’s really just a normal guy…it was really fun for him to be my older brother. I’ve always wanted to have an older brother. He’s very goofy! He’s fun to hang out with,” Jerins said adding with a laugh, “He’s unpretentious.”

The film- which has a surprise twist- immediately caught Jerins’ attention. “I’d only read a few pages [of the script] and I fell in love with it. I finished it in one night. It was intense but it moved me and I loved it so much.”

In the film, Jerins plays the precocious dreamer (and budding artist) Caroline Hawkins. Adding a layer of complication, the sweet Caroline- who also serves as Pattinson’s character Tyler Hawkins’ confidante- has to deal with a distracted, workaholic father (Brosnan), a broken family ripped by tragedy, as well as a gaggle of mean classmates. One jarring scene in which Caroline finds herself the victim of a cruel prank at a sleepover tested Jerins’ abilities and inevitably highlighted her maturity as an actress.

“I didn’t actually have lines [for the scene]. Allen [Coulter, director] just let me go with it,” she explained. There’s a lot we don’t have in common but I found it easy to connect with her…to get me into the scene I just felt for Caroline and her worries.”

Overall, the experience was one massive highlight for the young actress. “It was so fun and everybody was nice to me.”

One particular moment that sticks out in her mind was one in which the smooth Brosnan improvised due to a sudden interruption.

“During shooting one of the scenes towards the end, all of a sudden from out of nowhere the phone rang and without breaking character Pierce just walked up and answered it!” she giggled.

Remember Me hits theaters on March 12.

MTV Talks ‘Remember Me’

By: admin On | Filed under: Article

RPattz also dishes on James Dean, being typecast as Edward and the scene that nearly landed him in jail.

By Larry Carroll

By now, you’ve probably watched the “Eclipse” trailer a half-million times, eager to catch every last glimpse of Robert Pattinson. But don’t forget that this weekend brings the chance to see the trailer on the big screen when it plays before showings of RPattz’s new drama “Remember Me.”

Still not enough Rob for you? Well, before you go see the movie this weekend, read on for an interview RPattz did with our friends at MTV Radio. In it, he spills the beans on playing a “Remember Me” rebel without a cause, his reasons for being brooding and wounded in real life, and why people like hitting him.

MTV: How do you like not biting someone?

Robert Pattinson: I bit people in this! [Laughs.] No, I didn’t. It’s different. I feel like I’m missing out on something, but it’s a relief not having all that makeup on.

MTV: What attracted you to this role?

Pattinson: I read it after the first “Twilight” film, and I always liked it. It was always in the back of my mind. And then the opportunity came up between the second and third ones, which was a small period of time, so you can only do a certain type of movie. I was trying to remember all the little things I’d read, and this was perfect, and it didn’t need any real prep time or anything. There was something different about it. It didn’t fit into a typical teen movie, and it seemed quite realistic.

MTV: People say you remind them of James Dean. Do you count him as an influence?

Pattinson: I think James Dean was one of the most influential people on young guys — especially actors — definitely in the last 50 years. I’m not ashamed to say I am very much influenced by him.

MTV: This character bears many similar traits to Edward Cullen. Are you worried about being typecast at all?

Pattinson: Maybe I am brooding and wounded, and I’m just realizing it. [Laughs.] No, I’m not. You take little steps [as you go from role to role]. I’m always quite aware of how people are going to view things, and you have to go halfway. If I did something playing a 400-pound woman, people are going to judge it a bit more harshly than other people who’ve been doing character parts for 20 years. All the projects I’m doing, I’m not doing in a calculated way, but they seem like little baby steps towards other things. What I’m doing now is intensity — I like that. It’s what I like in characters.

MTV: This film deals with some violent, random acts. Is there something you were able to bring from your past to this role?

Pattinson: It was more about the reactions after, about how [my character] dealt with random events. … He has a blasé attitude, even when it’s him who is harmed. I always related to that; looking back in the past and having grudges and things, I don’t really do that. But the violence and things, the way his violence comes out, it’s illogical and it’s not against legitimate targets. I related to that — when you have a spasm of rage, it goes almost every time through the wrong target and causes more problems. It’s better to keep it chained up.

MTV: There’s a scene where you go pretty crazy in a schoolroom, opposite a young actress.

Pattinson: There was one take of that they had to cut out, because it looked like I’d not only be in jail for vandalism, but for child abuse as well! I spun the desk around and the desk fell over, and she literally ran away out of the classroom! I was supposed to continue on with the scene, but I was like, “Oh my God, I’m actually going to get arrested!” She looked absolutely terrified afterwards.

MTV: You’ve said that you have been beaten up a few times. Who beat you up?

Pattinson: A lot of people, when I was younger. I was a bit of an idiot, always unprovoked — in my eyes, anyways.

MTV: Was it a school-bully thing?

Pattinson: No, it was after school, generally. Like, after I first started acting and I liked to behave like an actor — or what I thought was an actor — it generally provoked a lot of people into hitting me.

Can Rob Hold “Remember Me” On His Own?

By: admin On March 8, 2010 | Filed under: Article, Remember Me

No one can say Robert Pattinson — best known as Edward Cullen in the “Twilight” movies — doesn’t suffer for his craft. While shooting “Remember Me,” his new film out Friday, “RPatz” had a near-brush with death. The actor was so besieged by fans on the film’s Union Square set that, to the chagrin of his five bodyguards, they once shoved him off a curb and into the side of a moving cab.

But his latest turn as a depressed New Yorker in “Remember Me” is providing an even greater trial. His first non-vampire role since the “Twilight” series began is a pivotal moment in his career. Will his total immersion in one of the biggest-grossing film franchises ever be the one thing he’s always associated with, or will it be a stepping stone to a bigger career?

The low-key Brit is loath to talk up his own skills; he’s raised self-deprecation to an art form in his bedheaded, aw-shucks interviews. “I wasn’t an actor-y kid or anything,” Pattinson, 23, has said of his London childhood, where his decision to join the local theater club was a bit of a fluke.

Lily Saltzberg, publicist for the Pattinson documentary “Robsessed,” explains: “He was at a cafe with his dad, and there were all these cute girls [from the theater], and he’s really shy, and his dad was like, ‘You need to start acting, to meet people.’ ”

“He’s a really, really nice guy, very shy,” confirms a fellow former member of the Barnes Theatre Club, where a teenage Pattinson started out working backstage but ended up auditioning for roles in plays including “Guys and Dolls” after, he’s said, “all the good people left.”

It’s become a sort of trend among actors to protest ever having been deliberately “actor-y.” But in Pattinson’s case, there are dubious origins. Beauty, not acting chops, snagged Pattinson his first real gig. Director Uli Edel, casting for his TV movie “Ring of the Nibelungs” in 2003, found a photo of the 17-year-old Pattinson. “I was very impressed with his looks,” he says. “And then I had a screen test with him. Let’s just say . . . it was a combination of talent and looks.”

On set, Edel says, “He did a great job. It wasn’t a huge part, but he was very disciplined, very serious about his acting.”

Still, when his fellow cast members talked, they weren’t lauding his talent. “Even the older women were saying, ‘He’s so damn good-looking!’ ” says Edel.

After a smallish part in “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire,” Pattinson took to the boards at the Royal Court Theatre in London’s West End, in a play called “The Woman Before.” But something went wrong during rehearsals, and he was replaced with another actor shortly before opening night.

What happened? To hear Pattinson tell it, he was sacked for being too experimental. “I liked the freedom . . . you could do with acting,” he told You magazine. “For that same reason — trying to take risks — I got fired from that play.”

Paul Morrison, who directed Pattinson in “Little Ashes,” offered a more concrete clue. The actor played Salvador Dali in Morrison’s 2008 film, and like the surrealist painter, his behavior was unpredictable.

“He didn’t really nail [the part] until the last day of rehearsal,” Morrison says. “I was a little worried. But he kept saying to me, ‘I’m fine when the camera’s rolling.’ ”

That movie was savaged by critics (its Rotten Tomatoes rating stands at 24 percent fresh), but Morrison has nothing but praise for Pattinson. “He was very committed,” says the director. “He did a lot of research on his own — if he wasn’t on set, he spent all day hunched over his laptop looking for Dali.”

And then “Twilight” happened. Overnight, Pattinson became a household name. Hysterical crowds at his public appearances began to be described as “Beatles-esque” in their numbers and lung power.

But the jury’s still out on his staying power. “Remember Me” director Allen Coulter says RPatz is the real deal. “People have made comparisons to James Dean, and I don’t think that’s inaccurate,” he says. “Or maybe a young Warren Beatty.”

Coulter says Pattinson had jumped at the chance to play someone “close to himself” and that, as with previous movies, he gave it his all. “He seemed very concerned about the inner life of the character, and was very demanding of himself,” Coulter says.

Early buzz on the film has been mixed, but his former directors are optimistic. “I know he can do more,” says Morrison. “His public persona is that he doesn’t take fame too seriously, but actually, he does take acting very seriously. I can see him doing what Leonardo DiCaprio did, getting beyond being a heartthrob and broadening his range.”

“Twilight” fans, whose sheer numbers ought to command some industry attention, also believe in the power of RPatz. In a recent Fandango/MTV poll, 43 percent said he’d be the first star from the series to bring home an Oscar.

But some in Hollywood harbor doubts. “I fear brooding becomes tiresome after a while,” says a casting agent, who offered a bit of advice. “Get thee to an acting class, Rob, if you want to be doing this after the age of 30!”

Rob Talks Bullying

By: admin On March 4, 2010 | Filed under: Article

Twilight: New Moon star Robert Pattinson has bravely opened up to reveal his experience of being assaulted in a series of unprovoked attacks when he was younger.

The 23-year-old has decided to talk about how he suffered at the hands of others during his teenage years – for no good reason that he can remember.

Rob said: “I’ve been beaten up a few times, by a lot of people when I was younger.

“I was a bit of an idiot when I was younger. But it was always unprovoked, in my eyes, anyway.”

He added: “I never got beat up by school bullies. It was after school.

“It was generally after I started acting. And I liked to…behave like an actor! Or what I thought was an actor. Which generally provoked a lot of people into hitting me!”

Rob recently admitted that his shy streak – perhaps caused by the attacks – means his he finds the attention he receives from followers of the vampire movies difficult to deal with.

He said: “You kind of, you are trying to limit the amount of time you have to deal with it. I do a bit of hiding.”

Teen Hollywood Interviews Rob

By: admin On | Filed under: Article

Between Twilight films, gorgeous, hot actor Robert Pattinson tries to take on other roles that challenge him. No matter what the story is, he likes to play “intense” characters!

Now, in New York, Rob is telling us that his character Tyler, in the new romantic drama Remember Me, a volatile NYU student trying to cope with a family loss and reaching out to the daughter of the man responsible reflected his own need to grow up and mature. He admits he was “a bit of an idiot” when younger and his “actorly” swagger tended to make people want to beat him up!

Robert confides that he’s known a lot of troubled teens in his life and really seems to “get” it.

Rob’s leading lady, “Lost’s” Emilie de Ravin was very impressed with him saying that he brought “all these intricate details” to the role. She thought, “how do you come up with these things?” One of those “things” was literally beating himself up in frustration on camera.. but the moment was cut from the film.

Rob says he was thrilled to be out of his pale vampire make-up for a while but admits that all the crowds gathering in New York to see him shoot “drove me insane” for a while until he learned to just mentally block them out in order to focus on his character. When asked if he is worried about continually playing brooding, worried young men, he just kids that ‘maybe I am brooding and wounded’.

TeenHollywood: Was it refreshing to be in a film where you didn’t have to bite someone?

Rob Pattinson: Oh, I’ve bit people in this (laughs). No I didn’t. It’s different. I feel like I’m missing out on something. It’s nice. It’s kind of a relief especially not having all the make-up on. That was one of the main things.

TeenHollywood: What attracted you to the role of Tyler in this film?

Rob: I read it after the first Twilight film and I always kind of liked it. It was always in the back of my mind and the opportunity came up in between the second and third ones; only a small period of time so you can only do a certain type of movie. I was trying to remember all the little things that I’d read and that was kind of perfect.

It didn’t need any real prep time or anything and there was something different about it. It didn’t fit into a typical teen movie type of thing. I hadn’t really read a script like it and it seemed quite realistic and I found the character to be very accessible for me. I’d always really connected to it and I don’t really know why (laughs).
