It's funny what you really see when you're the subject of the completely bizarre gossip magazine industry. It's just like, 'WHAT?!?' All this stuff with Emilie [de Ravin, his costar in Remember Me] as well. The tabloids say stuff like 'They went on a date to an Indian restaurant.' We were doing a scene! There's a film crew there!
Robert PattinsonI think that โNew Moonโ was my favorite book as well mainly because I like the juxtaposition of all sudden people beingโฆitโs such a hyped character, Edward, and there are so many people looking at him like a romantic hero. In โNew Moonโ, the way that I read it anyway, heโs just so humbled. Itโs a character whoโs looking at Bella and thinking that he loves something too much but he canโt be around. He deliberately starts breaking up their relationship which I think is a very relatable thing and I think is very kind of painful.
Robert PattinsonI'm always shocked by the people who I'm attracted to. It's always completely random. I generally like people who are a bit crazy but yeah, that's pretty much my only prerequisite.
Robert PattinsonAll of my favourite actors are American and I grew up watching American movies. It's weird, but I used to do a New Jersey accent in every audition in the States just because I liked to do it, really. It's completely bizarre. Everybody would ask: 'Where are you from?' And I would say, 'Oh, I'm from London.'
Robert PattinsonWhen I was 17 until, I don't know, 20, I had this massive, baseless confidence. This very clear idea of myself and how I would achieve success, which involved making decisions. I saw myself picking up the phone and saying 'Absolutely not' or 'Definitely yes.' Having control. Except you have to figure out whether the way you think at 19 or 20 has any value. And eventually I understood, with all that control, which was probably illusory, I wasn't progressing. So now I'm relinquishing a bit. I'll be a tiny bit naked.
