Robert Pattinson: I would Ask Edward Why He Is Wearing All of That Make-up
Glamour UK had the chance to interview Robert Pattinson. You can watch the interview HERE. Thank you Glamour! :)
Did you fall back easily into the role of Edward?
I had to work a bit. I went out to Vancouver about a month before we started shooting and tried to get back into the mindset. But I was always really excited about shooting this one because I thought it was the most interesting story and when I read the script it was a really interesting adaptation. I always knew how to do it, my bit, in this one so I wasn’t really worried.
What aspect of Edward do you wish you possessed?
I think his ability to stay silent. I’m really bad at that. He’s very comfortable not saying anything and I always feel like I have to say everything, anything, all the time.
Were you worried about taking your shirt off after seeing Taylor’s new physique?
Definitely, yeah. I was really, really worried. I mean I only saw him for the first time in a long time when he was all ready to go for the film so I was feeling very inadequate and emasculated. I did feel a little inadequate but it did make me go to the gym so there was some good in it.
We know that you’ve had to spend a lot of time in hotel rooms because of fans. What do you do to pass the time?
I mean I’m never in them for long enough. Today was going to be the longest I was going to spend inside my room for a long time and the fire alarm went off which annoyed me so much but [i do] nothing particularly exciting. I bring my guitar around to various places and sometimes play but that’s about it. Nothing out of the ordinary.
What would you think of Edward if you met him in real life?
I think he looks a bit weird – like why are you wearing all of that make-up? I think I would probably find him quite interesting. He’s quite old and stuff.
Are English fans different from American ones?
I wouldn’t know how to describe it. I’ll know better this evening because we are doing this big kind of event thing. I haven’t been in England since January and it wasn’t that big a deal in England the last time I left so I don’t know. But I always assume that… I think that English people are less enthusiastic about everything so I think they will be less hysterical.
Are you worried about being typecast?
Yeah not really. I’d be worried if it started happening afterwards but I mean all the jobs I’m doing next year are very different from Edward so I guess I’ll have to see if people accept me in those roles. But I’m not really afraid of it at the moment.
What do you want for Christmas?
What do I want? I want the entire Criterion collection if anyone feels like sending me one.(Gozde: Alright shall we start a fundraiser for the Criterion collection? :) I think Criterion would be more than happy to send him the whole set ;) )

Time Magazine Q&A with Robert Pattinson
TIME: You took on an edgy vampire movie and it’s become this. Did you know what you were signing up for?
Robert Pattinson: I had no idea it was going to be like this. I really had no idea until… I guess I still don’t. The time that it hit me really was when we were shooting in Italy and the emotional reaction — it wasn’t just screaming. It was like people were so intently listening and watching. After every take there was polite applause. And it wasn’t hysteria. It was literally devotion to the characters. It was amazing. I haven’t felt that in any other situation.

Film.com Talks to Robert Pattinson About Why He Relates to Edward
New Moon, the second chapter of The Twilight Saga, begins with every teen girl's favorite vampire, Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), breaking his beloved Bella's heart, sending her on a downward spiral she only narrowly survives.

I sat down with Pattinson recently to discuss the movie, sudden fame, and why he relates so well to Edward.
Cole Haddon: In New Moon, Edward Cullen, after having personally exiled himself from Bella's life, spends most of the story ... well, not in it. Except for visions Bella (Kristen Stewart) has, that is. Did that leave you feeling disconnected from your cast mates at all?
Robert Pattinson: Those scenes, [the visions], were the hardest scenes. They weren't really at the time, but after I saw the first cut of the movie, [the filmmakers] changed them quite a bit in the editing room and with ADR. It's not [technically] Edward [either]. It's a manifestation of Bella's loneliness and desperation. As for being alone, I've always felt a little bit aloof as the character, throughout the whole series. I think that's how he is, so I didn't feel any different.
