| | 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.

So he can relate to Little Foot in The Land Before Time? 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!

Haha, I liked how he picked up on the difference between HP fans and Twilighters.... 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. I'm sure that was so hard for him.

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

| Hocus Pocus * HP Newsoholic 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. |

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

Random question about the dinasour. If someone asked me about that, I would be like, ummm.... shjfhurhtuhk. I would probably make something up!

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!

Ohhhh Emmmm Geeee. To talk to Robert Pattinson on the phone...*sigh*. 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! I have to agree, people pretty much do go nuts over things like HP and Twilight. Myself being one of them. I love the way he pretty much got the role of Edward by standing there and being pretty. I'm assuming that wasn't too hard for him to do.
Great interview, once again! Thanks for posting!
