Robert is at that stage in his life where he looks 18 and 40 at the same time.
Also- equally like an A- list movie star and a homeless, transit pothead
now long have you been 18 robert?
@@emmalovesyourdog For many years
i mean 18 or 20 something ofc too as all those ages are extremely young looking lol
@@emmalovesyourdog A while😄
This guy can literally do anything to his hair and it still looks awesome
True I wish I had the same but it's all been falling for the past few years my hairline will look more like Statham's than Pattinson
@@wyatthunter987 I'm told bear grease helps 👍🏻
@@wyatthunter987 - True dat. They say in a couple decades we'll be able to reverse aging, yet we still don't have any medication or treatment hat regrows hair. We have products that stimulate growth, but nothing guaranteed and that doesn't regrow hair, it just strengthens the hair you still have.
@@wyatthunter987 yo man start taking Finasteride ASAP.
he hardly washes i read years ago. if you dont wash your hair for so many weeks, even a couple months(?) your hair starts to wash itself and gives it that sort of look. a csgo commentator called spunj has very similar hair with the same effect, i asked him what he washed his hair with - he doesn't.
Great interview - he seems to be enjoying his life and, despite his fame, has managed to retain his humility. Great guy and a very good actor.
Agreed!
He always just seems bewildered that he is actually an actor!
@@Mezza Or could be impressed at his own acting. Not all celebrities like how they look or sound in a movie/tv show or a song. Ariana Grande didn't like how she sounded on one of her albums.
I would love to just sit down and have a conversation with him. Robert seems so down to earth, charming and very charismatic. I would like to pick his brain and, well, find out how he carries himself.
Humility? You better read reports from filming Batman. With such attitude - he won't score another part in Batman for sure, at least not with Reeves. And current roadmap for his movies proves it quite nicely.
I'm convinced Robert Pattinson is one of those rare actors who can play literally anything and he'd give an A-game performance every single time, The Batman will only further redefine his career and people perception's of him.
money comment.
Ahha Nolan said the same thing in an interview, after working with him in Tenet. “He can do anything”
@@RohitKumar-dq8fb Yeah I remember seeing those interviews with Nolan reacting to his casting.
The Rover and Good Time and Tenet and The Lighthouse are 4 COMPLETELY different characters and he did them all beautifully.
I thought he would nail bruce wayne part, wow im so wrong, he's definietly batman
him being in a harry potter movie and saying that holding a wand is dorky is lowkey iconic
I love him as Cedric I think if i get Hogwarts legacy im going to be hufflepuff i haven't decided if I want to buy it tho and the first twilight movie is my favorite
@@maddogmajimaswifey3868 Buy. It. Do it now. Seriously. Yes.
I’m not a fan of 99% of celebrities, but I gotta admit, Robert seems like a really chill dude. Humble and respectable.
He's listed as one of the celebrities who's pretty low maintenance despite the wealth he has and spending mostly only on musical instruments like guitars, and with him too supporting various charitable organisations and even giving more money to one of his fans who was tirelessly working as a waitress who had served him by chance at a restaurant from a fan encounter I read on twitter, as much as I loathe that site and even this place, but I come on sites like here still just to catch up on the stuff I want to. And none of his other co-stars so far made it on that list which I read recently. Just wished he will hang out more often with better company like Jamie Bell and Paul Rudd whom he has mingled with since they seemed to be more genuinely friendly with him, which I can't say for some others I won't name here.
I agree! It‘s the same for me too. Not really a big fan of celebrities but Rob is one of the very few that I really like and I enjoy him a lot and he is so cute and funny and humble. He is pretty great with a lot of humor. He reminds me of a sweet and loyal puppy who always want to play and is always happy and warm hearted😆
The fact that he pronounced *Hufflepuff* as Huff- *LAY* -puff truly shows how much of a Hufflepuff he is. 😂😂😂❤
The thing is, I think Pattinson could played the Batman or the Joker equally well. That's got to be unusual.
Christian bale
@@chriswyatt9869 Is an actor. What's your point?
@@13strong you said it’s unusual that an actor can play both Batman and joker well. I gave you another example of another actor that can do it
@@chriswyatt9869 I disagree. And even if Bale could do it, it's still unusual.
@@13strong watch American psycho… bale can definitely do it. I don’t think it’s unusual, it’s acting. Chances are many actors can play both roles, you just need to see them do it for at least one. People doubted Pattinson as Batman before
I'm glad he sees it as well. The FIRST Twilight was actually pretty good for what it was. Catherine Hardwicke captured the angsty awkwardness of teens super well and there was humor/irony to it and an almost indie-film vibe, plus the casting was great. The movie overall felt authentic and far superior to it's literary source. Then the studio smelled the cash cow and milked it by breaking it down to bad cliches and grandiose gestures. Evening the lighting and set design went downhill. All a bit to shiny and meh...
Couldn't agree more and very interesting to hear Rob talk about it too
Agree the first movie is awesome
I think the 2nd movie was the best movie. Then the 1st movie was still very good. It went downhill when it hit midway through the 3rd movie.
I loved them all, Twilight does have a very different vibe from all the others though. It was good for the time, I get that the lighting and mood were super angsty and some may not like it though. The bluish filters were intense. 😆
@@Cherry-rg6hm New Moon is the perfect combination of semi-indie movie suddenly getting a bigger budget and playing to a loyal following. There are so many iconic moments in New Moon. It really hits the "so bad it's good" for me. It's the only movie from the franchise that I watch on a semi-consistent basis.
Robert Pattinson - the gift that keeps on giving
I don't understand why he got so much hate, he's a great guy and a great actor.
Because of twilight but you shouldn't hate someone because of a film
@@pavannair6469 Ikr. But this franchise is now a decade old and some people still remember him coming from this in a negative way, unfortunately.
@@CaioH. That's how people are these days unfortunately. Too negative and take just 1 part of negativity of someone and let that define them. If you watch other films of Pattinson you'll see how good of an actor he is which is why I knew he would smash the role of batman
@@pavannair6469 Exactly, I felt the same. I mean, he's pretty much an accurate Batman from the comics and even past interpretations.
well after batman,everyone loves him
I loved Pattinson's batman, not only did he deliver an amazing performance, he also managed to put a lot of weight and emotion into an already heavy and emotional character
I don't think I've ever been more shocked than I was when I wound up loving him as Batman. Absolutely brilliant performance.
u got me there
i couldn't believe myself
People judged him for Twilight when he was anounced as Batman and back then I BEGGED people to watch Good Time and The Lighthouse to see just how good he is. I had no doubts at all when he got cast as Batman. He is an incredible actor in general...It's just Twilight that ruined how he's looked at.
Odd... I was super excited for it with high expectations.
@@datahigh I wrongly judged him for the snippets I saw of Twilight as I had not seen him in anything else
He is gonna make Batman look like a freak and I'm here for it.
You're just a freak... Like me!
I can’t believe they were mad about him playing Edward as Emo. From the books I always pictured him as this mysterious, broody character.
Edward's got a massive martyr complex so I think it's appropriate.
His enthusiasm for Batman is infectious. He really killed that role

Pattinson is probably one of the finest young to middle-age male actors of our time. He seems focused, down-to-earth and takes the acting craft seriously. Which is a lot more than most actors do these days.
15:35 HE DID THE THING AGAIN. I LOVE HIM SO MUCH
His range is unmatched
Bit of an overstatement
Kid, watch Gary Oldman
@@JohnDoe-tm9wz WAHAHAHAHA
@@SilkyPud Personal opinion
@@myhomie131 just like yours:)
I like how self-aware he is. Some actors get on my nerves, but I’ve always liked him.
Robert seems like such a cool, laid back person. I love how much passion he has for “weird” and untraditional roles in movies. Very cool
A shame he didn’t speak on Water For Elephants. It was such a good film and one of my favourites to this day
Can't believe this guy came from "twilight" to "The Batman".He is a great actor. 🤘🦇
Came from Harry Potter before twilight
Not to bring up a thing of the past but I see how he and Kristen Stewart are very much alike in their passion of acting. They treat it very seriously and use it to grow. And they each express how they are not jaded after all the films they've done, ranging from popular blockbusters to small indie films. They always have fun with the immersion of their characters, though constantly expressing insecurities about their work and performances. But they are both brilliant actors who are very passionate about what they do. It's a wonderful thing to hear them articulate their processes in these "breaking down film career" type videos.
gosh, he’s a lightning bolt. so well spoken and charming. would love to have a drink with him and just pick his brain about his approach to acting, the different roles he comes across, and the basic science of the cinematic arts. could listen to him speak for hours, and so talented !!
When you deliver the first death in Harry potter, you are destined to be the prince of darkness like... Forever
The first death in the movies but not in the books. Either way, it's a nice continuation for him to come back from the dead as an immortal vampire, lol.
I’m so happy to see Rob’s love/hate relationship with his hair still exists
The person who edited this video needs to win an award. This was clearly very hard to do because it was beautiful to watch.
"I always get these strange unfounded criticisms about my accents." haha I love how he's basically giving everyone the finger and just enjoys acting!
He has such a range of films. I'm looking forward to what he does with Matt Reeves' version of The Batman.🦇
"I think by accident I sold my soul" 😂😂 I can't
Love him! I could watch him talk all day, especially when he’s talking about something he loves.
Super excited about his Batman and future movies. He's an amazing actor! Go Pattison 👊🏼
What a guy!
We are lucky that we are witnessing his greatness as an actor!
LOL. People wrote a petition to not have him cast in the Twihard film? Looking back....but he's still so gracious about that whole ...situation. He seems like a very honest, humble, funny guy.
Even though he wasn't the main character in it, I was really hoping he would talk about his role in "The Devil All the Time." I think that's the most despicable character he's played and he played it so well.
oh he made my skin crawl. he did so well, he had me convinced thoroughly
His hair gets messier and messier as the vid goes on lol
Lovely interview. Pattinson seems such a nice guy. Pity we didn't get to hear his comments on playing the Dauphin in "The King." He was astoundingly good in that, too! Such a charismatic performance - totally blew lightweight Timothee Chalomet (Henry V! So insipid!) off the screen!
I wanted to mention that film and his role too. Absolutely loved it
Oh yes, true. The performance was so good it kind of felt unexpected, which really helped to cement the point of the plot.
"He is a freak. This is another freak" when I saw that clipped online I knew he was gonna be a great Batman.
I'm convinced of two things about this man. He loves making movies. And he's passionate about weird and nerdy things.
I think you could give this man any job and he would nail it! Love him! Tenent was incredible! Really hope they do a second one!
I wish Remember Me had been included, one of my favorite roles of his 😩 need a Part 2
He did well to break away from what many seen him as the guy from twilight he could’ve very well been typecast into that but he’s done a lot of great stuff that people don’t think of that when they think Robert pattinson
Didn't expect much of his Batman performance and he turned out really well. Good for him! Need to give it a second watch too.
literally THANK YOU for this
Well, as an old Twilight stan it's always been so funny watching him hate these movies. It was a big comedic element to us fans especially since we knew that he was an amazing artsy actor who was highly underappreciated, wasting away in a ridiculous cheesy fantasy romance. On the other side twilight was an escape from reality for many young women and girls and it's been close to my heart even though I know it's trashy.
Tenet was the film that solidified Robert playing Batman. He is so good.
I had a fan experience & an opportunity to watch the Batman. What an awesome introduction to an even more grounded, young, and restless Bruce Wayne. With only two years for young Batman, the film is dark, it’s gritty and it’s all about the detective work. This is why we all love Batman because he has so many layers upon layers to explore. Matt Reeves just revolutionized the Riddler. Paul Dano was amazing, pretty much every cast is amazing. What I really like is that the film shows us how young Batman is scared to even fly off high-rise buildings still, but also throws out his body with no hesitation to enemy bullets, sometimes not being able to control his anger during a fight. He gets shot in the chest, punched in the head, and doesn’t give in. But above all it haunts him to see anyone get hurt because he’s still affected by the death of his parents. The cinematography is amazing, and boy the city of Gotham is just on another level. You’ll get scared to even pass by the city let alone live there. Shows the true nature of corruption and political deceives. Reeves created a unique Batman set just as Nolan’s was different than Tim Burton, as well as for Zack Snyders Batman. Each director builds their own unique elements and universe for Batman. Perhaps the greatest advantage is that character Batman is so versatile and any director can interpret it based on the excellent comic books written. DC needs to focus on these kinds of movies because honestly, they’re just perfect. I’m hoping we will get another amazing trilogy if it continues like this. My respects to all the previous and current directors for giving us different types of Batman. I really like all the Batman iterations since 2005. (Baleman, Batfleck. & Battison).
It's always great to see someone enjoying their interview. Robert is very charismatic too lol
i can hear him talk all day & never get tired
I feel like I could legit hang out with him. He looks and sounds normal and exceptional at the same time. I love his rants about the movies, I’m glad this was a long video
my parasocial relationship with him is not normal
Rob's hair has a life of its own
When Robert talked about waking up at 3 am while Cosmopolis is on, not knowing if you’re asleep or not. That’s exactly how I experienced the Lighthouse. I kept falling asleep and waking up, not knowing if the movie was real or not. Very surreal
Robert appears like he just enjoys acting :)
Man I loved this guy as the batman. Perfect
Just love him ! This is a great interview !
He is an amazing actor, he can do anything and he is absolutely fabulouse !
My favorit for all the time !
what a Charming fellow.
I LOVE his singing. I wish he could produce music
YES...he is great in all aspects ...I wish him greatb success...he deserves it👍👋
He was totally underrated in Tenet! Stole many-a-scene
Robs singing voice gives me life ❣️
I swear this guy can look amazing in any hair style. Even if its bed-head.
He may not be the best Batman but he is so certainly the best Bruce Wayne.
Batman will undoubtedly become his signature role. I mean the trilogy will definitely happen can’t see the movie being bad or performing horribly. I mean you can’t really land a bigger role than the Batman.
I can’t believe they left out Little Ashes. He was fantastic in that movie. He’s an incredible actor.
That was an amazing film.
The way he laughed at the beginning got me weak in my knees. He’s beautiful af 🖤
I never thought that Robert was going to play Batman's role, but he did it. As a result of the film, he mamazed me as much as the whole cast from Colin Farell as Penguin to Paul Dano as the Riddler. Actually, before I saw The batman, I saw 3 movies of his, between them "The lighthouse". So, I could realize how talented he was as an actor.
Pattinson could literally style his hair into a nest and -pull it off- look super hot
That intro was so wholesome hahah, cant wait for the batman
I really enjoyed this.
I hope to work with him one day. Robert is awesome. “Remember me” is my favorite film he’s in.
Can’t get over how he says Hufflepuff “Huff-le-puff” .
He reminds me abit of Heath Ledger. His attention to his acting craft and discomfort with fame.
That can also be a bad thing with what he did to himself
I'm surprised he didn't mention Water for Elephants. 🥺😔 That's SUCH a good movie! ☺️💜
suuuuchhh an interesting filmography and career, I love this man so much! great video and interview
Interesting fellow. Really enjoy these interviews.
he is such an incredible actor, one that i think has been really successful at rebranding themselves to be more that the role they were first known for. he's got so much variety, i feel that he could play almost anything, and that's really special.
Started out not caring and then grew to love him, not dissimilar to my feelings for his career. What a progression.
One of my fav actors of all time 🐐
I really loved him as a batman
The Batman was a crime film more than a action film, which I LOVED! Reminded me of Se7en and Zodiac which I already loved, looking forward to more!
OMFG NEW ROB CONTENT I LOVE HIM
Seeing this interview makes me confident that whatever Bruce Wayne he'll eventually end up playing will be great. Since the Batman movie was about Batman I'm excited to see his bruce
I loveeee robert ❤!!! Love his happy attitude!
TE AMO ROBERT
Such a likeable fellow and a talented actor as well diverse roles
I remember seeing him on Saturday morning television just after Goblet of Fire. I never thought then that he'd go on to crush it as The Batman.
Good time is a masterpiece, a truly great movie.
With the way he talks about “big movies” and marvel you can tell that he’s been gassed out by all the productions he’s been a part of. I’m excited to see how his career progresses post Capt
I love Remember me. It was amazing. Robert, is so handsome and very talented.. do your thing Rob!!!
I can't believe I ever thought he was lame just cause he played a sparkly vampire. I love this dude.
sometimes I look at him and I can't believe that the obscure little lanky guy from Harry Potter is now Batman. I was barely 11 when I saw him for the first time as Cedric and now nearly 30 and I can't be happier and prouder of him!
One of the best talks of Robert... So sweet and funny when he mentions the babies cast for "High Life" that didn't want to do anything with him at all 😅 and then they cast his goddaughter... I love the good words he spends about every character he played, about every actor and director he has worked with so far... I love his total dedication to make each character the best always... and most of all I love his way to follow his intuition, no matter what... even if people around him may suggest he should change something, he just follows his way, because as long as he feels there is something good about it, he will go for it... Go Robert! I will always support your career! 🌟
Robert is a very versatile actor, I absolutely loved his his acting in devil all the time, he totally nailed that performance... For a very long time he was Edward for me and thn when I watched DATT and specially that confrontation at church scene I was totally blown away by it.... Robert is really underrated in so many ways. I hope he gets more such roles
GREAT INTERVIEW!
i love him so much and his sarcasm omg haha
Saw the movie today, it was really good!!
Remember Me is my favorite Robert Pattinson movie and one of my favorite movies rver
I love him so much.
