David on auditioning Rob:
Working with Casting Director Kirsty McGregor, and Lava Bear’s President of Production Tory Metzger, Michôd spent a lot of time reviewing the work of various actors, so by the time he auditioned Robert Pattinson he had worked out what he wanted for the character of Rey. Michôd had never seen a Twilight film and wasn’t overly familiar with Pattinson, but upon meeting together in LA, and after his audition Pattinson quickly became his favourite for the role. Recalls Michôd: “His performance in the tests was really great and real and moving. What I also liked about him was that it was really quite evident to me from our first conversation that he really wanted to do it.”
The Story and it's Primary characters:

The story is a seemingly simple one; it follows the physical journey of the two main characters, Eric (PEARCE) and Rey (PATTINSON), as they embark on a road trip to find Rey’s older brother Henry (MCNAIRY). But the subtle plot gives reign to the emotional development of the characters, and this can be seen predominantly through the union of Eric and Rey. Their journey together becomes an intensely emotional one, as the unlikely acquaintances are forced to deal with their own inner turmoil. The film’s setting is full of people forming some kind of pairing in order to survive and Eric and Rey will join them.
Guy & Rob talk about Eric & Rey:

Eric really has no interest… he has not one iota of compassion for this kid. He purely is using him to get back what he needs.” So the two men are forced to stick together out of necessity.
 

Pattinson describes Rey as “a dependant who has been protected by people his entire life, but he has also burdened them, and he thinks that he can’t really live as an independent person. He’s a little slow, and very, very needy, and he feels like he needs people to look after him all the time.”
Throughout the film, there are several developments that progress Eric and Rey’s emotional journey.

He hasn’t felt anything for anybody for 10 years or so, so it becomes a really complex scenario for him.”
