Robert Pattinson tells Elle Portugal he’s doing intensive training for #TheBatman

Elle Portugal has a new interview with Rob (although parts of it are similar to Elle Korea). Below is an extract from the English translation talking Batman and the Go Campaign thanks to Robert Pattinson Portugal – head over to their FB page to read the full translation:

After all the artistic films you’ve made, was it difficult for you to decide to enter a film like Batman?
“No, I wanted to do it. In every new job, I’ve been trying to do the opposite of the previous one, in order to surprise myself. And I don’t know why, but at the end of last year, I was thinking I really wanted to do a big movie. I hadn’t thought about exactly what it could be, and then Chris Nolan and Tenet came in and Batman came out shortly after. I had been making small movies, I was already relatively comfortable in what I was doing for a while, for “I didn’t even get nervous. I didn’t even stay with Tenet, which is a great production. I think it was also because of the filmmakers. I can totally trust Chris Nolan and Matt Reeves. They are very unique filmmakers who would immediately say yes if wanted to make a smaller film. “

Do you have to physically prepare to step into Batman’s shoes? Is that why you’ve been running a lot lately?
“Yes. As soon as I finish this job, I will immediately start intensive training. In fact, it is quite pleasant, because I have been doing so many hours in Chris Nolan’s film that the idea of ​​being really healthy for a few months, just doing physical exercise and sleep seems like a real dream! I can’t wait! But yes, I was never a big guy. So I have a certain curiosity about what it’s like to be. “

…

He confessed to ELLE that he was obsessed with Kate Moss and Jane Fonda when he was young. Have you met them?
“I’ve met Kate Moss and been with her a few times, doing things for Dior. And I haven’t met Jane Fonda yet, but I’m still a huge fan.”

She is an activist, like Robert. You are discreetly collaborating with Go Campaign. What does this NGO do?
“The Go Campaign improves the lives of orphans and vulnerable children worldwide, creating partnerships and local solutions. All children have the right to opportunities, education, health care, food, water … Two friends of mine worked to them and they told me to go to an event about five years ago. They did an auction and built a school in Cambodia. It’s a completely transparent and very efficient nonprofit organization. Over the past five years, it has become much bigger than it was when I started working with them. “

And now there is a Robert Pattinson School?
“Yes! And the school has been growing every year. I really am very proud.”

Thanks to Go Campaign for heads up and RP Portugal for translation
