Rob Pattinson to Star in ‘Bel Ami’

Variety posted:

“Twilight” star Rob Pattinson, in Cannes to promote “Remember Me,” skedded for a Feb. 12 domestic release, will star in an adaptation of Guy de Maupassant’s short story “Bel Ami.”

Uberto Pasolini is producing through his shingle Redwave Films. Pic is skedded to shoot in Paris next year with London legit director Declan Donnellan set to make his film debut. “It’s a totally amoral character,” Pattinson said, explaining that it’s a quite different role for him.

The young thesp has a busy schedule: “Remember Me,” which Summit Intl. is selling at Cannes, is set to begin lensing in four or five weeks, although the female lead is yet to be cast. “The girl needs to be literally inspirational,” said Pattinson of a catalytical element of the film. To be directed by Allen Coulter, film was scripted by Jenny Lumet. “I have no qualms saying that she’s a genius,” Pattinson laughed, adding that the script really connected with him when he first read it — even some of the dialogue sounded “the way I speak.”

The role is not that different from Edward Cullen in the “Twilight” series. “They’re both about commitment,” he said. Fans who worried that the next installment of “Twilight,” “New Moon,” won’t feature as much Edward as the first film since the book does not, can rest assured: The actor will log screen time as Bella’s “hallucinations,” according to Pattinson.

The busy thesp is also excited about “Unbound Captives,” which Madeleine Stowe directs from her script set in the American frontier of the mid-1800s. Pattinson likes a challenge, and “the script is almost entirely in Comanche,” he said.

As for “Remember Me,” “This is a big movie for us,” said Summit Intl.’s Patrick Wachsberger. The $20 million pic has sold to Aurum for Spain, SND for France, Telemunchen for Germany, Eagle for Italy, E1 for the U.K., KD Media for Korea, Hoyts in Australia, Nordisk for Scandinavia and Belga for the Benelux territories.

Robert Pattinson Tells Risky Biz His Thoughts on ‘New Moon’

Risky Business Blog has posted an interview with Robert Pattinson where he talks about New Moon and his upcoming film Remember Me!

THR: Let’s talk about “Twilight.” There are four books. Is the plan for you to do them all?

Pattinson: I have committed to the fourth one, “Breaking Dawn.” But I don’t know quite when Summit is going to shoot it because of my schedule.

THR: How is the script for “New Moon” different from the second book?

Pattinson: It kind of plays relatively close to it. I would still describe it as being a sort of supporting role (to Bella’s story). I think it would have been a bit cheesy if it had just stayed as a voiceover part as my character is a voice in her head in the second book. They’ve shot these hallucination bits of the film. You’re playing a figment of Bella’s imagination and I was trying to do it in a really 2-D kind of way. I hope it doesn’t come out flat and boring (laughs).

THR: What’s the schedule for “New Moon”?

Pattinson: We’ve got four days left on the shoot for this. I’m going to Italy for the remaining days of the shoot.

THR: And then?

Pattinson: Then I’m going straight into filming (the relationship drama) “Remember Me,” then have just three days off before going back to finishing up the third instalment in the “Twilight” series, “Eclipse.” After that I am doing a film “Unbound Captives.” I can’t say much about that but I know the script needs me to learn Comanche! Maybe it’ll be like in “Dances With Wolves!” My part is entirely in Comanche, ha ha.

THR: You’ve been shooting sequences from the second and third in the “Twilight” franchise at the same time. Is that harder for an actor than doing separate films?

Pattinson: Not really. We will just shoot the Vancouver bits (for ‘Eclipse`’) and then “Moon” is out later this year.

THR: How did “Remember Me” come about?

Pattinson: I read the script last summer and then met with (director) Allen Coulter and really liked it. It’s quite a simple story but there was something about the character and way he spoke that was very similar to the way I speak. There is a naturalism to the writing and I really felt a connection to it.

THR: What’s the script about?

Pattinson: I read somewhere it was being described as the modern day “Love Story.” It isn’t anything like “Love Story.” It (“Remember Me”) is really hard to describe. It about a 23-year-old guy and knowing someone for six weeks. You don’t just fall in love and say, I’m in love, after six weeks. It’s really a relationship story. It’s very natural and the characters are incredibly real and well scripted. It’s one of the few scripts I’ve read where you finish and realize you didn’t really want it to end. I have no qualms in saying that (writer) Jenny (Lumet) is a genius.
