SnitchSeeker interviews Robert Pattinson

Red and I just took part in a phone interview with actor Robert Pattinson (Cedric Diggory), who is in New York right now in the midst of doing publicity for his new film Twilight. Robert stars in the film, playing vampire Edward Cullen based on the popular book series by author Stephenie Meyer.

Below are excerpts from the interview.

Quote:

SnitchSeeker.com: How are you enjoying New York?
It's great. I love New York. I'm just working the whole time.

Have you ever recommended the Twilight books to your friends?
I don't have very many friends. I have like two friends and they already know I'm doing it, so it'd be random if I said like, "Hey, have you heard about this book, Twilight?" (laughs) They may have read it, I'm not really sure. I think my family have all read it.

How did you relate to the role of Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire?
When I was doing the part I had so little idea of how to act. I was sort of just doing that off the cuff. I don’t know how much of it is acting and how much of it is just being there and reading the line.

We also asked Rob about a rumour that surfaced earlier this year, which stated that he and actor Rupert Grint made a bet in reference to the Twilight books. He affirmed that it was not true.

Quote:

The Daily Snitcher: Assuming there will be more Twilight films, do you think that the Twilight series can do for you what Harry Potter did for Dan Radcliffe?
People are really like obsessed with the books. From what I've seen it's a different kind of obsession. I don't know if I'd be able to really handle that. I think it's definitely a possibility, depending on how well it does.

Are the Twilight fans crazier than the Harry Potter fans?
I don't know. I didn't do too many promotional things for Harry Potter. I did quite a lot of press junkets and stuff, but not actual confrontations with the fans, as I've done quite a few on this. So I never really saw the extent of it beyond the premieres, which I was expecting, But with this … I never expected anything like this. They screen the trailer and people go nuts. It's a new experience for me.

Robert commented a bit on playing Cedric:

Quote:

With Cedric I felt very natural doing a lot of his stuff. Because it was my first really big thing, I kept telling myself, "It's not a big deal. It's not a big deal. It doesn't matter if you make up a bit of the line."

Harry Potter's Page: You felt you related more to Cedric?
No, not really. I knew a guy just like Cedric when I went to school and I was thinking about him a lot when I was doing that.

The actor also spoke about how he prepared to audition for his role in Twilight.

Quote:

Twilighters.org: What made you want to audition for the part of Edward?
I had absolutely no idea I was gonna get it. I thought it was even silly, me going in to do an audition. The way they were doing the audition at the director's house, just with the director and the actress. And I knew she was good, I knew Kristen [Stewart] was good. So I just went as a normal audition and I really liked how it went. So that changed my whole mind about the whole project afterwards.

So basically Kristin was one of the main reasons you wanted to do it?
Yeah, pretty much. Especially after the audition. I had no idea how to play it. I went in literally thinking I was just going to stand there and pose. I just thought like the most important thing about this character, the way I saw it at the beginning, was like just the way he looks all the time, so I was just thinking that, "Well, I'll just try and look as pretty as I can." That was my only idea when I was going in. And then after the audition my mind changed about everything.

Robert also stated he definitely plans on doing New Moon and Eclipse, based on the second and third books in the series, but doesn't know when shooting will begin on New Moon.

And if anyone is interested, his favorite dinosaur is:

Quote:

Probably a diplodocus. I can really relate to a diplodocus.

Twilight hits theatres Nov. 21.

I LOVE HIM!!!!

-dies-

Awesome interview. I kinda want to be you guys right now. *flies away dreaming...* :P

Haha the dinosaur bit was quite random =]

Great interview! I actually went "awh!" when he said he only had like 2 friends =P

EDIT: Just realised the different site names asking questions ... were there a lot of sites in this interview?

HAHAHA. I wish I could say something funny like "OH MY GOSH. That's my favorite dinosaur too," but I don't even know what the heck that dinosaur is. :(

Good interview, though!

Yeah, there must've been around 15 fansites asking questions about Twilight and everything else. I believe HPP actually has the audio for the entire interview up, in case you want to hear it. :)

Thank you :D

"which makes it chaffing everything"
haha =D

aww. I actually thought that bet was real!:P

A Diplodocus!:lmao: I wish he would've expanded on that. I want to know why he'd relate to a diplodocus.

Ah thats awesome that you guys got to do that! ^_^

My favorite dinosaur is a Raptor, sorry Rob. :lol:

Oh God :lmao:

I love this guy, he cracks me up every time : D

I can hardly wait for the twilight movie! I already ordered tickets to see the midnight showing on Thursday, haha. My friend and I made t-shirts and everything. At first I wasn't sure how he would be as Edward, but now that I have seen trailers and such, I think he's going to do a great job as Edward.

Awesome!!! Great Interview!!

Wow, that would have been so much fun, I hope you guys had an awesome time!

I think it's interesting he hadn't really prepared at all for the part until after the first audition, and yet he still got it. And I like that Kristen was the motivating factor.

oh man, he's hilarious!:lmao:

at first I was a little iffy about him being edward, but I'm growing more fond of him everyday ^_^

Hahah. This dude has the ability to make me giggle--and trust me, that's not an easy thing to do.xD

Great Interview.:D

good interview :)
i was glad to see that there weren't any stupid questions, they were really interesting (you know how sometimes people just ask completely dumb things... lol)

haha katiebell, you made me laugh with this:

And if anyone is interested, his favorite dinosaur is:

awww i kinnda hoped the rumour about Ron and Roberts bet was true, because that would have been hilarious :P

great interview although I still don't know about seeing this... we shall see!

Robert I will be your friend lols:) The dinosaur thing was random hehee:P

this film looks so good!

Awesome interview!

I love all the fun interviews and pics and videos that SS gets. :D

haha the dinosaur thing was so random!
haha but i loved it

Lmfao, his interviews are always so reassuring.

"Ehh, I dunno, I just kinda did this."

Great interview! Can't wait till the movie.

So he can relate to Little Foot in The Land Before Time? :mwaha: I actually watched the trailer for Twilight for the first time yesterday, I had no idea it was American! He sounds completely different without his usual accent!

Lol, great interview!

Oooooh awesome! Go SS! *fistpump*

Haha, I liked how he picked up on the difference between HP fans and Twilighters....:lol: Poor guy. Must've been a shock.

"Well, I'll just try and look as pretty as I can." <-- that's the best quote ever, though. :xd: I'm sure that was so hard for him. ;)

OMG i absolutely love Robert Pattinson
and i cant wait to watch twilight!!!!!
twilight and HP forever!!!!

his favourite dinosaur shold be the Dracorex Hogwartsia, just like mine is!

Love Rob! Can't wait for Twilight! He makes me wish Cedric didn't die! lol

Fantastic interview! And, I agree with whomever says that the dinosaur comment was random... It was, but, it's interesting, you have to admit... :)

Okay! I tried going to the Apple Store in NYC SoHo, but guess what? There were so many people lined up and across the street, that it was totally impossible to even get a look-see. I took a picture of the front of the store - that's all I could do! There were literally a couple of thousands of people - mostly screaming girls! The line snaked around a huge NYC block! It was thoroughly amazing. I'm sure people lined up hours earlier. I finally got there around 7:30 pm; the interview was going to start around 8:30 p.m., and the Apple Store wasn't very big! I believe that the Soho Apple Store has a second floor and I think that they'll probably have the interview there.

Anyway, I tried to get in, and hopefully, someone will let us know how that actual interview went. Oh well.

what is a diploticus, anyways that would be great if he is in new moon.

You have to love someone who doesn't relate to Cedric, but rather to a diplodicus. I die.

:lol: Great interview!!

nice interview......:)

hahaha lol the last part was random haha.....

Fantastic interview!! Thank you for posting that up for us!

He's such a top bloke!

Diplodocus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gawd I'm so jealous of Laurie and Red - Excuse me while I die again. haha

He's such a liar though. That one SO doesn't have to TRY to be pretty. He just straight up is. Ugh. I love him.

That makes the interview for me! Hehe! :D

great interview Rob!!! I love him, and I think he's perfect for Edward (though it took some getting used to...) :P :D :lol:

newsflash to Robert: Girls are going totally nuts over you because you make them wish vampires were real and looked like you....!

Great nterview!
I was actually surprised when he said he has two friends...
Random question about the dinasour. If someone asked me about that, I would be like, ummm.... shjfhurhtuhk. I would probably make something up! :upside:

Good interview. He is so random sometimes with his answers, that I feel he's not even really paying attention to what their asking him. He makes me laugh at that!

Great interview!
:lol: fav. dinosaur..that's so random:P

Awesome interview! You guys are so lucky to be able to do this kind of thing!

OMG! He's so brilliant! (:

Ohhhh Emmmm Geeee. To talk to Robert Pattinson on the phone...*sigh*.

:lol: You two are pretty darn lucky, you know. ;)

Anyway, the interview was really awesome! Robert doesn't have many friends? :( I'll be his friend! :D I have to agree, people pretty much do go nuts over things like HP and Twilight. :P ~~Myself being one of them.~~ I love the way he pretty much got the role of Edward by standing there and being pretty. :lmao: I'm assuming that wasn't too hard for him to do. :P

Great interview, once again! Thanks for posting!

Great interview! Wish I could go see him!

Great Job! that was realls good:D and also funny!!
I enjoyed reading it.

oh my i absolutely adore him... he is so cute!!! great interview guys!!!!

Twilight Lexicon has posted an audio of this interview [it's a 3-part audio and the SS interview is in the 3rd] just thought you'd want to know.

Everything is different for him now because he's the star and because he is older. :)

He's great, and I most likely will be seeing the movie (even though I haven't got around to reading the books yet:head: ) but I don't see Twilight becoming more popular than HP. In Harry Potter fandom, you find kids, teens, and adults. that's everyone. Not all adults have heard of Twilight, it seems to be more of a young-adult thing. (Of course, now I'll probably be quoted by people saying "I'm an adult and I ove Twilight" But I still don't think it's as popular as HP)

Great interview!!!:monkey:

The bet he had w/rupert...rupert was the one who said that they had a bet...CONFUSED

"Probably a diplodocus. I can really relate to a diplodocus."
Oh my...that's hilarious!

I can't wait for this movie!!!

I so love Rob. Can't wait to see the movie, unfortunately due to living in Australia I have to wait until December 11th. Thanx for posting the interview guys.

I have to wait until December 11th as well. I love Robert's interviews there always so entertaining. I have no idea what a Diplodicus is either??

so.... his favorite dinosaur is the diplodicus.... i've never heard of those before..... nice to know.

thats awesome I love twilight but i just love harry potter more Ü

This was an awesome interview!!

Awwww !~

He's sooo awesome !~

Good Luck Robert !~

diplodocus.....hahahaha...He can relate to a diplodocus???? hahaha

Great interview

diplodocus... I like it! I think that might be my new favorite word for the week, if only I could say it right LOL Great Interview!

^_^ I may get to meet him tomorrow. I wonder, if I mentioned Snitchseeker... would he know what I was on about? :lol: I love how mostly he tends to just... exist, for his roles. 'I just kinda was there' stuff. :lmao:

And someone should warn him... Twilight fans are, in my opinion... definitely crazier. :hide:

^ You should totally do that.

LOL I love RPatz, he's definitely got a sense of humor that seems rare for young actors these days.

As Kristin said, "Rob can handle you all", so that's how he's a diplodocus

Amazing, he is a wicked actor. I saw twilight last night and he was amazing:)

great interview! he is too funny.

Robert made the movie

hes really cute!!...
