During Robert Pattinson & Bong Joon-Ho Talk Mickey 17, Future Roles & Guilty Pleasures for GQ, Rob disclosed the following about meeting with a director who makes horror films and how he can no longer watch them. IndieWire is guessing that this could be Parker Finn:
“I did get very frightened [recently]. I had to do a meeting with the director, and he’d done this horror movie, and I watched it, and I kept thinking that someone was breaking into my house,” Pattinson said. “And so I was sitting on my sofa with two kitchen knives, waiting for the person to come in. And then I fell asleep with them basically in my neck on the couch. And my girlfriend came in and she was like, “What is happening, why do you have two knives in your face and you’re sleeping [laughs]. Yeah it was probably a squirrel.”
Pattinson could be talking about “Smile” and “Smile 2” director Parker Finn, who’s mounting a “Possession” remake Pattinson is producing.

Esquire Italy: Robert Pattinson: “Better to get in trouble than give banal interviews (translated via google)
What’s the strangest thing you’ve learned for a role? To tickle fish. We were in Colombia, and we had to relax them so much that they could then fish them with their hands. Then, to hypnotize chickens : just draw a line on the ground in front of them. They will remain still for thirty seconds thinking they are trapped.
he commercial shows different sides of the male personality. Is there one you identify with? Playing the Dior man was extremely difficult: having to look attractive while doing different things like dancing or boxing . I’m not the best boxer, anyone would be better than me after three lessons. But in the end that sensuality , that amateur role is the part that resembles me the most.
Is it self-deprecating? It happens mostly during interviews . Back in the Twilight days, I would give hundreds of two-minute interviews and only answer boring questions. It was crazy. I felt guilty, so I started thinking of creative, surreal, funny answers. Sometimes I got into trouble . What do you want from me, banal answers?
Is there a particular scent that reminds you of a movie set? The smell of the Batman mask that I had in front of my nose for 12 hours a day. It was the role in which I paid the most attention to the senses ever. I keep it in a glass case, at home, and when I lift the glass to smell it again, it traps me like the first time.
Which of your characters would wear the new Dior Homme? I’ve played so many assholes , if you’ll pardon the expression, that I’m almost afraid to answer. Maybe everyone would wear it. It’s every man’s perfume.
We were hoping Cedric Diggory from Harry Potter would answer . Of course, of course. Edward might be a little more floral. Maybe he’d choose something funereal. Chrysanthemums.
