Robert Pattinson was perfect for Salvador Dali according to Paul Morrison

Back in May 2009, Paul Morrison the director of Little Ashes spoke to The Examiner about Rob and casting him as Salvador Dali in #LittleAshes:

For Lorca and Dali, I must have seen every up-and-coming young actor who was available in both Spain and the U.K. Originally, Rob read for Lorca, and I was going to cast Dali in Spain. But Rob felt so much more a Dali – the combination of acute intelligence and vulnerability and self-consciousness that the part demanded – that I switched, and brought him back to read for Dali. He was perfect. I never saw anyone in Spain who felt right for Dali, by the way.
