Stephen Moyer: I get the Robert Pattinson leave-offs

Stephen Moyer tells Variety:

"I get the Robert Pattinson leave-offs," Moyer says with a laugh, referring to the young star of the hugely popular "Twilight" vampire movie franchise. "The ones who get to a certain point and think he's a boy. There's the Pattinson gang and the Moyer gang."

Gozde: There is a Moyer gang? Rob auditioned for True Blood and didn't get the part so it's only fair Stephen gets his left overs :) I am undecided on how I feel about Rob not getting the part due to the R rated nature of True Blood. I do love Edward but man True Blood is HOT! :)

Thanks to Stella for the link.

he looks older than Rob... I wonder how old the character was supposed to be in the first project because I'm surprised that both auditioned for the same part LOL.

(we don't have that show here, so I don't know anything about the guy).

Godze, I did not know that Rob auditioned for True Blood. Learn something new everyday!! Thanks for this little tidbit.

sweetdutchie said...

OOPS I am so sorry, Gozde. I spelled your name wrong!!!

I would so loved to have seen Rob in True Blood or anything R rated...schmexy! And I don't think Rob looks like a "boy" at all - but next to Stephen Moyer he does look young. I haven't watched True Blood yet cuz I'm afraid I'll be hooked... :-)

Doreen said...

I didn't know Rob auditioned for that role. I'm a big fan of both True Blood and Stephen's character, Bill. He's supposed to be around 168 years old and was turned at 30 human years. Moyer is in his late 30's.

Kathy#1 said...

Ok, one more thing and I haven't see True Blood..but just from pics, Rob looks so much hotter... Goz - do you suppose there is a moysessed blog somewhere??? LMAO!

Kathy#1 said...

Doreen, so in reality he is older since "Rob" is only 108...LOL!

Aija said...

Rob auditioned for True Blood?!? :o

Maryann said...

Now if Rob had gotten the role in True Blood I MAY have actually been hooked on that show, as it is now though this show does nothing for me. Just not my thing sorry.

I didn't know he auditioned for that...heh..did Rob REALLY wanna play a vampire or what? Just kidding hehe.

anna F said...

thank Doreen

"Bill. He's supposed to be around 168 years old and was turned at 30 human years. Moyer is in his late 30's."

Rob was a bit young-looking to play 30 years old, but I guess they change the age depending who gets the part too.

I don't find Meyer too attractive in this picture, but it's just one picture. Plus, the draw is often the character at the beginning.

Then again, sometimes good looks just pierce the screen: David Boreanaz could have played an @shole in buffy, his first entrance was just unforgettable... *_*

Lizalou said...

Hmm...I didn't know this either

sj said...

OK, knowing Rob auditioned for True Blood makes me feel cheated... cheated that I don't get to see his bare nakedness! He would be ultra sexy in True Blood! Oh well, Stephen Moyer ain't too shabby either!

showme said...

WOW! Damnit. what could have been!

Gozde said...

I added the link to the interview where he said he auditioned for True Blood :)

pattzy80 said...

What?! Rob auditioned for True Blood?!!! and didnt get it ?! whaaaat!

well hmm i gotta think about that one if he would have been write for the role.. but man he would have looked great in some TB scenes!!

Unknown said...

Wow if Rob got the part we would have seen his butt crack....ALOT! :D

Unknown said...

MOyer i great and i love true blood. its really fantasting and addictive :D and i cant wait for season 2. but i lobe rob more as a person. i dont find moyer that attractive. but as to compare these two shows well true blood is much better than twilight the movie.

rpattzdude said...

Agata i cant agree less with you : ) because i fell for TB and everything about that one was great.

Moyer is hot in TB but no man can maser up to Mr. Pattinson :P

wow that was big news didnt kow that Rob had auditioned to TB got surprised. =)

thank you Gozde for this article great one :D

LovetheLips said...

True Blood is awesome and very hawt...but Moyer is NO Rob....and to me, Rob is aaalllll man - the boyish looks are no more!

...I didn't know he had auditioned for this either...

WinWin said...

I watched and followed the 1st season of True Blood and loved it. I would have died if Rob was in True Blood. The whole series is very sexual. It's the polar opposite of Twilight. Kinda glad he didn't get it. His career is heading the right direction.

marianamint said...

I guess Rob really really wanted to be a vampire, huh?
Vampires are so in right now!

kchambers77 said...

rob tried out for bill compton? hot damn! i see him more like barry the telepathic in dallas.

kchambers77 said...

true blood plot is all alan ball of six feet under. most of the stuff doesn't even happen in the books. so it's different yet similar to the book series but the books aren't as sexual. but man they are so funny! i caught myself giggle out loud on break and getting stares when i was reading them.

Cherry said...

I tried to watch True Blood but I couldn't get into it. Aren't vampires supposed to be hot? =x

WinWin said...

kchambers, I'm reading the first book now and can't quite get into it. They are very diff from the TV series. Sookie is funnier than Bella.

kchambers77 said...

in that world they were everyday people that came out of the "closet"

jason stackhouse is pretty hot.

kchambers77 said...

*vampires as everyday people

oops man i'm ready to go home! i'm so brain dead.

kchambers77 said...

yeah it's different from the series. alan ball basically changed everything.

sookie is a hoot!

i've posted in this too many times! i'm going to look at finger porn again :D

Marna said...

Man, Rob in True Blood scenes? That would have been awesome!

TwiHartRK said...

Our gang can totally kick your gangs ASS. LOL!

I agree MaryAnn - might have gotten into that show. But I'm glad at how this worked out for Rob - and us.

Mrs. Robinsane said...

RP auditioning for True Blood—how very interesting!

If he was required to make out enthusiastically, between the sheets, with Kristen for his Twilight audition, can you IMAGINE what he had to do for True Blood???? ;P

After renting and viewing the first two episodes, I'm not sure how I feel about TB; it was a bit difficult to determine the desired "tone" of the show, and there were some frustrating lapses in logic. But I'll give the remaining episodes a try.

(Random aside: I'm also renting the HBO series "Tell Me You Love Me," whose intimate scenes are WAY more graphic than TB's. Just imagine if RP had been cast in THAT show....)

Sophia Z.86 said...

I love True Blood. Just bought the last book, number 9. The thing gets better and better...

But, Sookie annoys me in the series. In the books she is fine ~

Doreen said...

You're welcome. Rob is the best! But Stephen isn't too shabby either. That's not the best picture of him as Bill. I find him better looking as Bill than as Stephen. But back to Rob.....yum

Chicago girl now in LA said...

Saw Stephen on the View this week...very nice and articulate guy. I don't find him that attractive...nothing like Rob.

So, do you all rec. my getting the Sookie Stackhouse books? Haven't seen "True Blood," either.

Very interesting that Rob auditioned...I bet they thought he seemed too young at the time. Now, he looks so much more mature than a year or two ago.

...wowie! said...

OMG...if Rob was in TrueBlood...holy hell...we woulda seen A LOT of his ass and naked chest. DAYUM! TrueBlood is HOT. Don't think I coulda really see him with Anna, who plays Sookie, tho. Hm...still a nice thought to ponder.

Musk said...

True Blood is a whole different level...a very good level. If Rob was in it I'd say his life wouldn't be as crazy. Then again he may not get have gotten the same golden opportunities. He's made a good choice because now we get to fawn over 2 gorgeous vamps.
