Have added over 400 photos to bottom of photos section. In the meantime, Deadline reports that Rob took Korea by storm yesterday at the Mickey17 press event:

“It marked a first visit to Korea for Pattinson who was greeted by hundreds of fans as he touched down at Seoul’s Incheon Airport.

“I’m just so happy people are excited about the movie. It has been a long road to come to this release and to see people excited and with the poster already and wanting it signed. It’s exciting,” he said.

The Twilight, The Batman and Tenet star said he was puzzled as to why he had never made it to Korea before.

“I don’t understand how I’ve never come to Seoul with promotional tours with other movies. I’ve always wanted to come. I know a lot of fun people who live here, and I wanted to meet up with these guys again,” he said referring to Bong and his producing team.

…

“The script seems deceptively simple at first,” said Pattinson. “But then when you try to break down Mickey’s mentality, this guy who has zero self-confidence but somehow doesn’t feel sorry for himself, it gets complicated really quickly. I ended up thinking of him as this poorly trained dog who needs to die 17 times to finally learn something.”

…

Recounting his experiences shooting the film, Pattinson recounted how the set had the feel of “giant Star Wars” production and revealed that he and the rest of the cast – which features Naomi Ackie, Steven Yeun, Toni Collette and Mark Ruffalo – had been intrigued by Bong’s directing style in which he got his actors to deliver one or two lines at a time.

“I think all the actors had the same experience in that we’d turn up, and then ask, ‘What’s happening? We shoot one line and then move on?’. After one week, everyone is like, ‘This is the best, we want to do every movie like this’… also you [Bong] are so open with showing the edit on set. It’s fascinating to see that you have the entire movie in your head before we have already started shooting it.”
