Some guy offering him a part, maybe, in a movie so double top secret he couldn't tell Pattinson what it was about. He's just come from a bigtime meeting with a director and can't wait to tell us how weird it was.

His clothes smell like he has recently purchased them off the back of someone less fortunate than he. He slides into his chair, dressed all in black, with a weeksold beard, hair crammed under a wool cap, looking like Justin Timberlake researching an offBroadway turn as Terry Malloy. Long enough for it to gross more than $150 million, long enough for the studio to pull the trigger on the first of three potential sequels by replacing director Catherine Hardwicke with one of the guys responsible for the American Pie franchise, not long enough for Pattinson to grasp what any of these developments mean for him, or the importance of dissembling in the presence of reporters. But I think that’s the most daunting part about it," Robert said, adding, "It’s much scarier than meeting Lord Voldemort.It's December Twilight, in which Pattinson, 22, plays an adorably tortured permateenage vampire too principled to drink human blood, has been in theaters for about a month. It’s really stupid you’d think I’m really egotistical. "In the book, and also in my character’s first introduction in the script, it’s like, ‘an absurdly handsome 17-year-old,’ and it kind of puts you off a little bit, when you’re trying to act, and you’re also trying to get good angles to look good and stuff. "I wasn’t involved in much at school, and I was never picked for any of the teams," he said.Ĭalling it "quite difficult," Robert explained why the handsome wizard in Harry Potter was a challenge to play. Robert said he was never a leader, and the idea of him being made head boy would have been a complete joke. He also elaborated on what exactly separated him from his on-screen character. Robert Pattinson was 17, when he was cast in the Harry Potter franchise.

Interestingly, he chose Harry Potter over going to university, as revealed in a 2017 interview with Time Out London.

"I used to hate everybody like Cedric at my school." The actor was 17, when he was cast in the Harry Potter franchise. "I hate him," Robert said, according to the book, of the role that arguably put him on the map. He admitted he wasn’t too fond of the character that helped further his career, according to Robert Pattinson: The Unauthorized Biography. Although most might associate Robert Pattinson with that character, the actor once shared that he and Cedric couldn’t be any more different.
