On Career and acting

“I don’t know if I’m par­tic­u­larly funny, I mean one of my legs is shorter than the other one, it makes every­thing look very awk­ward, so I can just pretty much look like an idiot, but I don’t know whether I can be like witty. It could be a prob­lem.” – Robert Pat­tin­son, Comic-Con 2009 (When asked if he would do comedic roles in the future)

“I aspire to be Jack Nichol­son. I love his every sin­gle man­ner­ism. I used to try and be him in vir­tu­ally every­thing I did, I don’t know why.

“They [Barnes The­atre Club] were a very good group, and for some rea­son when I fin­ished the back­stage thing, I just decided to that I should try to act.

Comic-Con 2009

“I don’t know if I’m par­tic­u­larly funny, I mean one of my legs is shorter than the other one, it makes every­thing look very awk­ward, so I can just pretty much look like an idiot, but I don’t know whether I can be like witty. It could be a prob­lem.” – Robert Pat­tin­son, Comic-Con 2009 (When asked if he would do comedic roles in the future)

“I would. I’m just too, I’m kind of, a pussy, I guess. That’s the prob­lem. But, no, I’d love to. I think every­body should do open mics. I think it’s very healthy for your soul. So yeah, I’d love to do it again, but I don’t know. It’s like I’m cut­ting a record if I do open mic now, so, I don’t know.” – Robert Pat­tin­son, Comic-Con 2009 (When asked is he would pre­form open mic again)

“No, not really. I mean, at the end of the day, it’s just a part. You just go into it, and like your life, you’re walk­ing along the street, as a really bad anal­ogy, you step on a lit­tle stone, and it just kind of flies away and you have no idea where it’s going. And then you are just try­ing not to drown after­wards. And that’s my life. See, that was really ter­ri­ble.” – Robert Pat­tin­son, Comic-Con 2009 (When asked if play­ing Edward Cullen made him feel stronger and how he had pros­pered from the role)

“It’s almost kind of bal­letic.” –Robert Pat­tin­son, Comic-Con 2009 (When talk­ing about the fight scene)

“The spe­cial effects team designed every­thing, which basi­cally allowed me to stand on a green box and look and stay rel­a­tively  expres­sion­less and all these machines did the act­ing for me. Just the way I like it (laughs)” –Robert Pat­tin­son, Comic-Con 2009 (When talk­ing about New Moon)

“I don’t know. I still think it’s still so young, to me, any­way. I can’t claim any­thing to be a low. I pretty much live an almost iden­ti­cal life apart from being rec­og­nized. That’s not exactly the worst thing in the world.” –Robert Pat­tin­son, Comic-Con 2009 (When asked about the highs and the lows of the whole experience)

“I think that ‘New Moon’ was my favorite book as well mainly because I like the jux­ta­po­si­tion of all sud­den peo­ple being…it’s such a hyped char­ac­ter, Edward, and there are so many peo­ple look­ing at him like a roman­tic hero. In ‘New Moon’, the way that I read it any­way, he’s just so hum­bled. It’s a char­ac­ter who’s look­ing at Bella and think­ing that he loves some­thing too much but he can’t 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 Pat­tin­son, Comic-Con 2009 (When asked which book of the series was his favorite)

On fame

“I have to look over my shoul­der all the time, be really vig­i­lant because at any moment, some­one could be film­ing me or record­ing what I’m say­ing.” – Robert Pat­tin­son, Pre­miere Mag­a­zine, May 2009

“It makes me feel like work­ing non-stop: at least, on sets, the level of secu­rity gives me a bit of pri­vacy. It’s a relief.”– Robert Pat­tin­son, Pre­miere Mag­a­zine, May 2009

“I haven’t found one place in the world yet where I could dis­ap­pear.” – Robert Pat­tin­son, Pre­miere Mag­a­zine, May 2009

“What wor­ries me the most is that I don’t know when my patience will run out, when I’ll finally do some­thing really stu­pid. Wait and see…” – Robert Pat­tin­son, Pre­miere Mag­a­zine, May 2009

“All the time. A few months ago I came really close to los­ing it, I was get­ting really para­noid. And then I started a new job, things fixed them­selves. I can’t turn my back on the sit­u­a­tion and ignore it. If tomor­row I say: “Okay, I’ve had enough, we’re stop­ping every­thing” it won’t change any­thing. Might as well try to accept it and stay zen as I have no con­trol over it.” – Robert Pat­tin­son, Pre­miere Mag­a­zine, May 2009 (When asked if he some­times told him­self that he never signed of for this)

“The most embarass­ing is when friends ask you to meet up with them and you have to tell them “Sorry I can’t go to that place” because you’re fully aware pho­tog­ra­phers will be wait­ing for you there. I feel like such a weasle when things like that hap­pen, like the world has to revolve around me.” – Robert Pat­tin­son, Pre­miere Mag­a­zine, May 2009

“I don’t think any­one can under­stand what’s hap­pen­ing. Some­thing like this is so rare. It’s a mix of chance and coin­ci­dence. You wake up one day and you’re sud­denly a star.. Really weird. All of a sud­den every­one knows who you are while you haven’t changed one bit” – Robert Pat­tin­son, Pre­miere Mag­a­zine, May 2009

“I really under­stood what was hap­pen­ing in Cannes. I was in a restau­rant dur­ing a break and when I came out 2 hours later, 500 peo­ple were wait­ing for me at the exit. It was total chaos. They lit­er­ally had to carry me to the car.” – Robert Pat­tin­son, Pre­miere Mag­a­zine, May 2009

“Hon­estly, I didn’t think that I would be rec­og­nized so eas­ily.” – Robert Pat­tin­son, Pre­miere Mag­a­zine, May 2009

“No, not really. I mean, at the end of the day, it’s just a part. You just go into it, and like your life, you’re walk­ing along the street, as a really bad anal­ogy, you step on a lit­tle stone, and it just kind of flies away and you have no idea where it’s going. And then you are just try­ing not to drown after­wards. And that’s my life. See, that was really ter­ri­ble.” – Robert Pat­tin­son, Comic-Con 2009 (When asked if play­ing Edward Cullen made him feel stronger and how he had pros­pered from the role)

“I don’t know. I’d like to think that I haven’t changed that much. Within myself I don’t think I’ve changed.” Robert Pat­tin­son, Comic-Con 2009 (When asked how he’s changed since last year)

“I never do any­thing nor­mal any­way. I just get other peo­ple to do it now.” [laughs] –Robert Pat­tin­son, Comic-Con 2009 (When asked how he could do any­thing nor­mal with the paparazzi following him)

“Peo­ple just project their idea of my char­ac­ter on to me and they just seem to assume that I’m the same, when, in real­ity, I’m not,” –Robert Pat­tin­son, Speak­ing of Edward Cullen

“It’s strange, some­body asked for my auto­graph the other day. Because I fin­ished school and I‘m not really doing any­thing at the moment, I was just kind of aim­lessly wan­der­ing around Lon­don and these two guys who were about 30 came up and asked for my auto­graph. I was really quite proud at the time, and they wanted to take pho­tos and stuff. And then they were sort of wan­der­ing around and I was kind of wan­der­ing around and I bumped into them about three times, and every sin­gle time their respect for me kept grow­ing and grow­ing and grow­ing.” –Robert Pat­tin­son

“I’m so sur­prised it’s worked out that way.  I was just think­ing the whole time that I’ve never had the per­son­al­ity to fit into that.  I’m not really afraid of it, because I don’t even know how to play up that aspect.” –Robert Pat­tin­son, When talk­ing about his sex sym­bol status

“I sup­pose I should under­stand it [fame] bet­ter by this point, but I really don’t.” – Robert Pat­tin­son, When speak­ing of fame

“I’m just scared of crowds.  I just think peo­ple require things of me when­ever there’s a scream­ing crowd, and I always think I won’t be able to pro­vide what they want, so that’s why I look scared all the time.” – Robert Pattinson

“I go through fan mail myself, but I think I might get them cen­sored, because I’m always expect­ing to get the one thing that says, ‘I know where you live and I’m going to kill you!’  I’m always expect­ing that to come, but it never seems to arrive.  I never get any neg­a­tive mail, so some­one must be cen­sor­ing them.” –Robert Pat­tin­son

“Every­one just screams and screams and screams.  I have accepted it as real now, but it still feels sur­real.” – Robert Pattinson

“This is cra­zier and louder than I was pre­pared for.   With every week, the fer­vour and antic­i­pa­tion seem to grow. Peo­ple know my name and ambush me in pub­lic and try to fig­ure out what hotel I’m stay­ing at and ask me to bite them and want to touch my hair.” – Robert Pattinson

“When some­thing or some­one is hyped and you’re put on the fore­front of a lot of things, peo­ple want to tear you down. That’s kind of scary, espe­cially when you’re not really putting your­self out there.” – Robert Pattinson

“It’s strange because I’m a sex sym­bol to 14-year-old girls which I guess is not the most help­ful sit­u­a­tion to be in.  But yeah, I’ve never really thought of it.  It’s just so funny. I mean, just last year I couldn’t even get a date and then this year, the world turns and it’s so bizarre that every­body just changes their mind at the same time.” – Robert Pattinson

“I’m curi­ous to see what hap­pens in Eng­land because in all this mad­ness I think I can always go home to Eng­land and it’ll all turn off.” – Robert Pattinson

“I can’t see any advan­tage to fame.  I’m happy with the life I have now.  I’ve got the same two friends I’ve had since I was 12, and I can’t see that chang­ing.” –Robert Pat­tin­son

“It’s insane.  I’ve had girls throw­ing them­selves at me since the hype started.  Now the film’s out I can’t walk down the street with­out being pounced on.  All my life I’ve hated crowds.  Now I only have to step out­doors and I’m at the cen­tre of one.  It’s very cool but it’s very uncom­fort­able too.” –Robert Pat­tin­son

“I had a stalker while film­ing a movie in Spain last year.  She stood out­side of my apart­ment I used every day for weeks, all day, every day.  I was so bored and lonely that I went out and had din­ner with her.  I just com­plained about every­thing in my life and she never came back.” — Robert Pattinson

“I think some­one fol­lows me.  They do the most ran­dom stuff.  I get a photo taken through a burger drive-through win­dow and it’s like, ‘What?’.  They always seem like they’re six feet away.  I don’t under­stand.  I’m walk­ing around and I don’t see any­body.” –Robert Pat­tin­son

“I’m not par­tic­u­larly good at cop­ing with it.  I just cope.  I just leave my brain at the door and just stand there.  I can get the scream­ing more than I get the photo things.  That’s the worst, when you have this wall of pho­tog­ra­phers.  I’ve never under­stood the logic in how they do it.  Every­body shouts at the same time, and you’re try­ing to do a log­i­cal thing, look­ing from the left to the right.  And they almost always end up look­ing dis­ap­pointed with you after­wards.” –Robert Pattinson

“I read some gos­sip thing say­ing, because I looked really uncom­fort­able in a paparazzi photo or some­thing, they’re like, ‘He should get used to it. That’s the price to pay if you’re get­ting $12m a movie’.   If I’m get­ting paid $12m a movie I’d walk around naked.  That’s all non­sense.  I don’t know who makes that stuff up.  Even the price for the first one was non­sense.” – Robert Pattinson

“When­ever I have to do any­thing fan-related there’s always a whole bunch of peo­ple.  My brain kind of shuts down when there are loads of peo­ple scream­ing at me.  I’m not think­ing at all so I can’t really remem­ber what’s hap­pened imme­di­ately after­wards.” –Robert Pat­tin­son

“It’s a lit­tle bit over the top. I feel the same in my head I guess. I was quite a para­noid per­son any­way, so it doesn’t really feed well when peo­ple are look­ing at you.  I’m not really in the right job. I don’t like hav­ing my photo taken. I don’t like the atten­tion.” – Robert Pattinson

“Since the day I fin­ished shoot­ing there’s been at least one per­son come up to me every sin­gle day and then after the trailer came out, at least four.  It’s absolutely bizarre to me. This was before there was any sys­tem­atic pro­mo­tion of the movie.   It’s just com­pletely nuts.” –Robert Pattinson

“I’ll prob­a­bly go to Lon­don and hide.” –Robert Pat­tin­son

Fam­ily and Friends

“Up until I was 12 my sis­ters used to dress me up as a girl and intro­duce me as ‘Clau­dia’! Twelve was a real turn­ing point for me as I moved to a mixed school, and then I became cool and dis­cov­ered hair gel.” –Robert Pat­tin­son

“I can’t see any advan­tage to fame.  I’m happy with the life I have now.  I’ve got the same two friends I’ve had since I was 12, and I can’t see that chang­ing.” –Robert Pat­tin­son

“It’s hard for them because they want to be proud of me, but I keep remind­ing them that it’s all luck.  Luck is what got me here, noth­ing else.” – Robert Pat­tin­son, speak­ing of his parents

“Up until I was 12 my sis­ters used to dress me up as a girl and intro­duce me as ‘Clau­dia’! Twelve was a real turn­ing point for me as I moved to a mixed school, and then I became cool and dis­cov­ered hair gel.” –Robert Pat­tin­son

“All of my favourite actors are Amer­i­can and I grew up watch­ing Amer­i­can movies.   It’s weird I used to do a New Jer­sey accent in every audi­tion in Amer­ica, because I liked it.  It’s com­pletely bizarre and every­body would ask: ‘Where are you from?’  And I would say: ‘Oh, I’m from Lon­don!’” –Robert Pat­tin­son

“I really wasn’t very much of a rebel.  I’m seen by peo­ple now as more of a rebel which is strange.  I don’t like doing what peo­ple tell me to do.  I don’t delib­er­ately rebel against them.” –Robert Pat­tin­son

“I was at a small pri­vate school in Lon­don.  I wasn’t very aca­d­e­mic.  My dad said to me, ‘OK, you might as well leave, since you’re not work­ing very hard’.  When I told I him wanted to stay on for my A-levels, he said I’d have to pay my own fees, then he’d pay me back if I got good grades.” – Robert Pattinson

“I never really con­sid­ered myself attrac­tive, really.  I was always kind of gan­gly in school.” –Robert Pat­tin­son

Music

“I would. I’m just too, I’m kind of, a pussy, I guess. That’s the prob­lem. But, no, I’d love to. I think every­body should do open mics. I think it’s very healthy for your soul.

In ‘New Moon’, the way that I read it any­way, he’s just so hum­bled. It’s a char­ac­ter who’s look­ing at Bella and think­ing that he loves some­thing too much but he can’t 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 Pat­tin­son, Comic-Con 2009 (When asked which book of the series was his favorite)
