Access Hollywood had a must-see summer indie movie segment on yesterday and I loved seeing Alicia Malone give The Rover some love. If you don't know Alicia Malone, check out her past Rob interviews HERE.
Entertainment Weekly also included The Rover on their must-see summer art-house movie list, saying "both actors astound."

The Upcoming (5 stars)
The strength of this movie is its setting in a near-apocalyptic future yet not so far from what our actual world is becoming. The movie is very minimalist, and so is the language, which leads to amazing performances, especially from Pearce and Pattinson. They’re strong, fragile, sad and angry at the same time. The tension between them is there all along, yet they manage to create a beautiful relationship from their two broken souls.
From the score to the cinematography, from the lights to the framing, from the script to the choice of the cast, everything hails Michôd’s work as a great achievement.Total Film:
The technical credits are first-rate and both Pearce and Pattinson convince in their roles, the former mad-eyed and clenched, the latter confused of mind and slurred of tongue and possessed of a touching purity. Between this and his work for David Cronenberg, Pattinson is suggesting his career post-Twilight will sparkle like Edward Cullen’s skin. Michod, meanwhile, confirms he’s a filmmaker of considerable talents.FMV magazine (3.5 stars):
Scoot McNairy is good as Henry, the leader of the gang who will protect himself at all costs but it’s Robert Pattinson, who is almost unrecognizable, finally realising his potential with a superb performance as Henry’s brother, Rey. Hopefully he will be remembered for portrayals like this rather than that vampire bloke in Twilight franchiseLetterboxd (4 stars):
Tough, gritty and quietly powerful, this film not only delivers great Guy Pearce and surprising Robert Pattinson performancesFilm School Rejects (B):
A critical retroactive sadness to Pearce’s steely determination. That flinty persona clashes well with Pattinson’s desperately thuggish demeanor, the hardened man tolerating the hapless boy.Also, here are some old pics from The Rover now in HQ and UHQ

Guys.....it's gooooooooooood! We already know Rob's a supporting player in MTTS so the reviews aren't focused on him like The Rover was. BUT the critics are loving it and practically throwing rose petals! Maps To The Stars is getting all the stars, A+'s, all the numbers, and calls for the Palme to head straight to Cronenberg!
Watch the trailer again and see a sampling of what's being said and tweeted. Will continue to update!

REVIEWS
TheWrap:
“Maps to the Stars,” returns in a way to territory Cronenberg explored in “Dead Ringers,” and it's probably the director's best film in at least a decade....Robert Pattinson has a small part, but gets a love scene, of course, to satisfy his fans. Pattinson and Cronenberg are developing a nice collaboration, however, and here's to hoping we get to see more from the two of them....Probably the most exciting, unexpected surprise of the film festival so far, “Maps to the Stars” is about reaching upwards to something you're never supposed to touch. You can buy a map but you're never really meant to see what's beyond the gates. We need stars to remain where they are — unimaginably far away, shimmering in the night sky. But a star is really just a ball of fire. If you get too close you get burned. This might not be the happy ending we're seeking, but Cronenberg and Wagner give us the one we deserve.The Telegraph giving MTTS 5/5 stars:
Jerome, a chauffeur and would-be actor winningly played by Robert Pattinson....The Guardian's Peter Bradsaw giving MTTS 4/5 stars:
...My instant reaction, after stumbling, open-mouthed, from the cinema, was a pathological need to stumble back in again. There’s so much in this seething cauldron of a film, so many film-industry neuroses exposed and horrors nested within horrors, that one viewing is too much, and not nearly enough. Cronenberg has made a film that you want to unsee – and then see and unsee again.
David Cronenberg's new film here at Cannes is a gripping and exquisitely horrible movie about contemporary Hollywood – positively vivisectional in its sadism and scorn. It is twisted, twisty, and very far from all the predictable outsider platitudes about celebrity culture....Little White Lies:
Almost immediately upon arrival, Agatha chances across Jerome Fontana (Robert Pattinson), limo driver and resting actor, with whom she begins a tense friendship. (It is an amusing twist on Pattinson's role on David Cronenberg's previous film, an adaptation of Don DeLillo's novella Cosmopolis, in which he was very much the limo passenger.) Her relationship with Jerome is what is to unravel her employment with the mercurial Havana, and is at the nexus of a world where everyone seems to be part of the same cousinhood or siblinghood of fear — one big unhappy dysfunctional family.
True to style, David Cronenberg's Maps to the Stars is a work of cinematic fusion.Film4:
David Cronenberg’s latest is a sublime black comedy of manners involving characters with lives as lurid as any in Kenneth Anger’s trash opus Hollywood Babylon (that infamous book’s sales blurb – “the legendary underground classic of Hollywood’s darkest and best kept secrets” – could, with only a little rewording, double as a tagline for Maps To The Stars).TimeOut giving MTTS 3/5 stars:
Targets don’t come much softer than Hollywood. What stops David Cronenberg’s grotesque noir ‘Maps to the Stars’, written by LA insider Bruce Wagner, from feeling tired is that it’s deliciously odd.ThePlaylist giving MTTS a B+:
The director's also been gifted a cracking cast for the material. Before you ask: no, Robert Pattinson isn't in it all that much but yes, he's pretty good in it. Plus you get to see him as a sort of glam-rock version of Khan from "Star Trek," so there's that...the film is a sickly enjoyable wallow in the scandalous, fucked-up side of showbusiness, and a real return to form for the filmmaker.Indiewire giving MTTS a B+:
Only Pattinson, in a handful of scenes, is underutilized—yet the new context of his celebrity in this anti-celebrity project marks one more satisfying ingredient in Cronenberg's subversive mixture. "Maps to the Stars" is like a poetic dissection of familiar ingredients that zeroes in on its worst offenders.Indiewire:
With a script by novelist Bruce Wagner and a cast that includes Robert Pattinson, Julianne Moore, Mia Wasikowska and John Cusack, as well as Carrie Fisher, herself a mordant chronicler of Tinseltown excesses, it certainly has its bona fides in order, and the hosannahs are intense enough to raise expectations that the dissents don't manage to drown out. After all, if no one hated it, it would be a David Cronenberg movie, would it?ScreenDaily:
Cronenberg’s go-to composer, Howard Shore, delivers one of his best scores yet for the dry Canadian maestro, a menacing undertow that picks up on some of the ethnic, New Age sounds of the world it depicts, but shifts them into Clockwork Orange territory.Variety:
Of the main characters, only limo driver Jerome Fontana (Robert Pattinson, at the wheel rather than in the backseat after “Cosmopolis”) feels like an outsider, though it might have been wise to filter this unwieldy satire through his eyes — or those of someone not yet corrupted by association with the industry.TWEETS
- @robbiereviews:Well, Maps to the Stars is *incredible*. #Cannes2014
- @olilyttelton: MAPS TO THE STARS: Deliciously fucked-up Hollywood gothic-cum-Greek tragedy. Cronenberg's most entertaining in ages.
- @catherinebray/Film4: If I was in charge of the Palme d'Or, I'd give it to Cronenberg...A couple of Pattinson fans have asked, so: he's not in Maps to the Stars that much, but is good when he is. Has two love interests.
- @gabrielecapo: Maps to the Stars: Hollywood, the dead ringer of itself. A reiteration of the same idea. Life is not. My Palm so far #Cannes2014 #Cronenberg
- @GlennRunn: Cronenberg’s Maps to the Stars is a deliciously warped satire of Hollywood’s debauched excesses. A bit mad and a bit brilliant.
- @spliggle/TotalFilm: Well Maps to the Stars is a bit brilliant/insane
- @KetchumAtMovies/Variety: Maps to the Stars - [A]. Top form Cronenberg. Twisted, smart, and insane. Academy gods, give Ms. Moore an Oscar nomination! #Cannes2014
- @heavier_things: Maps to the Stars: brilliant, biting satire from Cronenberg. Laughed all the way through. Perfect casting. Really dug this one. #Cannes2014
- @_ann_lee: Maps to the Stars: Razor sharp satire on Hollywood's corroding power. Just hilarious. Bitchy Moore a sensation. My fav of #Cannes2014 so far
- @_Winter_wind: I think the best way to describe this "maps to the stars" Hollywood mockery is fun, crazy, insane and entertaining. It gets an A-
- @jessicakiang/ThePlaylist: Loved Maps to the Stars. Deliciously bonkers vision of Hollywood as a mythic village of inbreds.
"He’s A Great Actor & I Wouldn’t Have Cast Him Otherwise" ~ David Michod Talks Robert Pattinson & 'The Rover' To ScreenDaily
"He’s A Great Actor & I Wouldn’t Have Cast Him Otherwise" ~ David Michod Talks Robert Pattinson & 'The Rover' To ScreenDaily

Screendaily spoke to director David Michod about the challenges of shooting The Rover, the punishing conditions they worked under, if he had any concerns about casting Robert Pattinson & more!
Why did you want to tell this story?
I wanted to tell a story about the effect today’s pathological greed and rampant resource exploitation might have on desperate people in some dark future manifestation of the world as we currently know it.
I wanted to throw together a murderous, resentful Australian man and a naïve American kid - a man who has witnessed the world fall apart and a kid who knows nothing other than things as they are, a kid who in different circumstances might just simply be looking for a girl to fall in love with in the next town, but who instead, here, is struggling just to stay alive.
Is this desert specifically Australia or could it be anywhere?
It felt like this story was specific to the Australian desert, specific to the last decade or more of the Australian resources boom, which saw the Australian economy basically propped up almost entirely by us digging up monumental amounts of dirt to fuel the growth of China and Asia more generally.
The world of the movie is one in which a catastrophic Western economic collapse has relegated Australia to the status of resource-rich Third World country - with all the violence and danger that entails.
Both Animal Kingdom and The Rover are full of menace and have a strong sense of place. Do you associate Australia with menace?
I associate Australia with both incredible beauty and incredible menace. It’s a landscape, a vast emptiness, that inspires both awe and terror. It does for me anyway.
How concerned were you about casting Robert Pattinson - an actor best known as the face of a teen franchise - in one of the two lead roles? Did his performance surprise you?
I loved the idea of it. I knew, even from my first meeting with him, before I even knew that The Rover was going to be my next film, that Rob had something far more interesting to offer than his work to date would suggest. And the prospect of giving a very recognisable performer the opportunity to do something right outside the parameters of people’s general expectations is exciting.
Rob didn’t exactly surprise me because I knew he could do what I was asking him to do - he’s a great actor and I wouldn’t have cast him otherwise. I’m pretty sure, however, that everyone else is going to be surprised by his performance because it’s about as far away from everything he’s done before as you can get.
How punishing were the conditions during shoot?
They were punishing. When we did our tech recce the week before the shoot we found ourselves standing around in 50 degrees Celsius temperatures. It was scary and dangerous. Fortunately, when we started shooting, the temperatures dropped down to around 43 degrees Celsius, which compared to 50 feels like a cool change. The conditions were tough, but it’s worth it - you can feel the conditions in every pore and nook and cranny of the movie.Read the full interview over at ScreenDaily
What were the biggest challenges for you during the production?
Distance and isolation were the biggest challenges. Travelling an hour or more to and from set every day, getting gear into difficult locations, and getting 35mm exposed rushes out. Everything’s dirty and nobody’s phone works. These are all things that make the experience special, though, too.

The Rover is ranked #11 out of 100 of the Most Anticipated Films of 2014:
11. "The Rover"Maps To The Stars comes in at #15:
Synopsis: In a war-torn future beset by financial collapse, a man trudges across the Australian desert to locate his stolen car and secure the mysterious cargo found inside.
What You Need To Know: This is the first film for director David Michod since his riveting debut “Animal Kingdom.” It’s been described as an existential western, and it’s being fronted by “Twilight” heartthrob Robert Pattinson. Michod is also re-teaming with “Animal Kingdom” co-star Guy Pearce, with the fairly ubiquitous Scoot McNairy onboard as well.
Why Is It Anticipated: “Animal Kingdom” was one of the most exciting debuts of the last few years. That picture captured the sweeping scope of early Michael Mann mixed with Werner Herzog’s anthropological analysis of human behavior, crafting a debut that was both terrifying and utterly unforgettable. While he’s taking things in a vaguely sci-fi direction here, Michod has promised that this will be a relatively grounded affair, a crime picture in the outback that could be indicative of a contemporary mashup of “Wake In Fright” (with the idea of an outsider stranded in the outback) and “Mad Max” (with its emphasis on vehicular action). We’re particularly interested in how this takes place in the foreground of a financial collapse, and how close to modern day Michod wants to make it.
Release Date: A24 has it currently slated for TBD fall 2014.
15. "Map To The Stars"
Synopsis: Details a twisted Hollywood family: successful self-help magnate Dr. Stafford Weiss and his wife Cristina, who manage the career of their burned-out child star kids Agatha and Benjie, and also come into the orbit of an aspiring actor and a movie star haunted by her dead mother.
What You Need To Know: This Hollywood-set tale, penned by novelist Bruce Wagner, has been in the works for close to a decade, and seems to have been something of a passion project for director David Cronenberg: it's come close to production more than once before, but eventually got before cameras last year. Seemingly closer to last film "Cosmopolis" than his more commercial work on something like "Eastern Promises," it's also home to the director's most promising cast in a long-time, with the returning Robert Pattinson and Sarah Gadon joined by John Cusack, Julianne Moore, Mia Wasikowska, Olivia Williams and perhaps most interestingly, Carrie Fisher, as 'Herself.'
Why Is It Anticipated: We can't say we were huge fans of Cronenberg's last couple of movies, but the idea of the Canadian legend turning his attention to biting the hand that feeds him is an immediately intriguing one, and doubly so when you start adding drug-addicted thirteen-year-old child actors, pyromania and ghosts of dead 1960s stars into the mix. There are a lot of strong actors here who seem particularly suited to working with Cronenberg (Moore, Williams, Wasikowska), and perhaps more than anything, we're delighted to see John Cusack in a movie that isn't a straight-to-VOD actioner that hadn't already been turned down by Nicolas Cage (with this film along with "Love and Mercy," we're hoping 2014 is Cusack's comeback year). Early pics here for what could be another "Cosmopolis," oblique and chilly, but we've got our fingers crossed for something more satisfying.
Release Date: Said to be aiming for Cannes, though Venice or TIFF might be options too.
A couple more mentions for The Rover on sites we frequent:
Buzzfeed named The Rover a film to look forward to in 2014:
Not much is known about The Rover except its release date (2014), the stars involved (Guy Pearce, Robert Pattinson,) and a thin synopsis. So far, we know that Pearce and Pattinson are forced to work together to find a stolen car. Hopefully there will be a trailer soon! This aside, everything points to a great film.The Film Stage listed The Rover as one of the enticing films on A24's slate for 2014.

Ok...
The other QOTD producer let us know that he and Werner were leaving on a jet plane.
Guess we'll just sit here and wait to see what happens with Rob.

Rob filmed The Rover and Maps To The Stars this year and we'll be getting those two highly anticipated films in the new year.
