Elizabeth Snead from the LA Times blog, The Dish Rag, interviewed, Paul Morrison, the director of Little Ashes, about casting Rob in the film.  I have seen some of the Q&As in this interview previously and undoubtedly, as the US release draws closer, we will probably see many more.  For me though, the best part of the article is the following:

DR: It’s wonderful to see a young actor like this, who despite the fame and the adulation is choosing a path and taking some extremely challenging and provocative roles. Do you think he will continue on that path?

PM: He is serious about acting and I am sure that, yeah, he will want to do roles that challenge him. I can’t tell you how hard he worked on the role of Dali. I was encouraging him to just play the script, but he was for himself hunting down every day bits of film or tape or interviews or a biography of Dali. He worked really hard at it, both intellectually and emotionally. I think that’s in his blood now, I think. I don’t think he’ll be satisfied with playing less than interesting roles.

I’ll ignore the fact that the Dish Rag seems to assume that Rob chose the Dali role post Twilight.  Rob has always said that he doesn’t take on a role merely for the money and that he has to love the script first.  We can only imagine what future roles are in store for us to appreciate his incredible talent (and please no comments about the Screaming Fangirl emerging – I’m just stating fact).  To read the full article click here.
