Fans Arrive Early On WFE Set To Catch A Glimpse Of Robert Pattinson
CHICKAMAUGA, GA (WRCB) - It was an early wake-up call for dozens of fans as they waited outside an old farm house in Northwest Georgia for a glimpse of actor Robert Pattinson. Many of them got that glimpse too. Channel 3 Eyewitness News was the only television crew on scene as Pattinson walked around in a hoodie. (Kate: Well looking at the pic above it really could have been anyone walking around in a hoodie, I mean come on!)
Pattinson is in town to film opening and closing scenes for the movie Water for Elephants. He will likely only be here for one day but there is a possibility his stay continues into Saturday.
West Cove Road is now blocked. Security is tight around the movie set. Dozens of young females were removed from the property without incident as they got too close.
The film crew started their day with breakfast around 6:30 a.m. and began shooting soon after 7:00 a.m.
New Robert Pattinson & Kristen Stewart Pic From The "Eclipse" Afterparty
Is Rob practicing his vampire skills on Kristen's neck ?? :-}
Before anyone has a heartattack he's not really nibbling her neck. I mean she's in the middle of a conversation. It would be such bad manners and you know our Rob is the perfect gentleman ;-)
CHATTANOOGA (WRCB) - It was another day in movie paradise. Thursday crews were back at it again, setting scenes for "Water for Elephants".
Channel 3 has learned Robert Pattinson will arrive in North Georgia this weekend.
As we were first to report on Wednesday, a local family will rent their home to the movie studio for the scenes.
The actors haven't even arrived yet, but Robert Pattinson could greet the rising sun Friday in Chickamauga, and possibly head to Chattanooga.
Thursday we watched tons of fans take pictures and get a glimpse of the home where Pattinson will leave his mark on North Georgia. From the antique cars, to the dated laundry hanging from clothes pins, a set for "Water for Elephants" is getting closer to completion in Chickamauga, Georgia.
The movie, set in the 1930s, will star Reece Witherspoon and Hollywood heart-throb Robert Pattinson.
"I love him, and my daughter-in-law really loves him. She is going to be mad if I see him and she doesn't," Jane Martin says.
From the two lane road in Chickamauga fans could see bicycles, props, antique furniture on the front porch and even curtains through the windows where Pattinson could soon look out.
Pictures were snapped and video was shot by "Edward" fans Thursday, hoping to catch a moment in movie history.
"I can't imagine more people not wanting to come out and film, its just amazing they found this place in the middle of no where," Debbie Angermeier says.
From Chickamauga to Chattanooga we spotted movie mania everywhere.
The Chattanooga Railroad Museum hosted many of the films crews Thursday as they scoped out rail cars, and the Sheraton Read House had trucks parked outside the building with what looked like costumes for the film.
While many of the crews are trying to keep much of the filming a secret, the thought of Robert Pattinson coming to the Tennessee Valley has women of all ages drooling a little bit.
"I think this is just the coolest thing ever! It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for something to happen like this," Kim Wallin says.
Filming could start as early as Friday in Chickamauga. We checked out Pattinson's official fan website and it said filming in LA wrapped up Wednesday, and he was headed to Chickamauga, Georgia.
Security will be very tight.
We do want to point out the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum will be closed on Monday and Tuesday for what might be filming.
Q: What made you say yes to Remember Me; you are in the position to say yes or no to a director to choose which movie you want to be in or which movie you don't want to be in? A: Kind of. You get certain offers and stuff, but with this, it was before Twilight came out, and I read the script and I wanted to do another job before Twilight came out. I didn't end up doing one, but that was one of the things I read. So with this, usually every single young guy who is a lead is often such a stock character. But Tyler wasn't really coming from an obvious place and wasn't ending up in an obvious place either, so it gave you much more to work with, and it could be more of a character piece. There are certain things about generic films where you have to do certain things and perform in a certain way, and it doesn't really make sense. I think that's why this is kind of a little bit weird in that respect, it doesn't really fit what you'd expect from this kind of drama.
Q: With Remember Me, were there certain aspects of the character you could empathize with? He's a guy who likes to do his own thing… A: Yeah, in a lot of ways, I saw right from the beginning that he was quite similar to me, and I kind of tried to tailor it to be even more similar, but then the more I tailored it, the more it became a fictional creation. But yeah, I've been saying there's a kind of moment where, I think it's the end of the adolescent period, where you think that you have to be an individual so much and you want to stamp your identity on everything. I mean, you get to your early 20s and you are much more accepting of being part of the world, and not wanting to drive everything away from you all the time, and I kind of had that when I was in my early 20s.
Q: Would you ever stand up for yourself to the point where you are going to fight with authority, like the character? A: I know, that's what one of the main things I liked about it; there are certain things which are like fantasy scenes of mine. It was quite satisfying, even the way he fights. It was all in the script, it said he fights like a pitbull, and I was just like, 'Yeah, I want to fight like a pitbull!'
