Water For Elephants is now listed on Rob’s IMDb page as ‘In Development’ with full details on IMDb Pro. Not anything official as yet I know, but it’s still so exciting to see the film listed on there. If you do have access to IMDb Pro, you can see all the details including the cast list which is down as Rob, Reese Witherspoon & Sean Penn (Rumoured). It also mentions they are ‘eyeing a June start date’. Fingers crossed we will hear some more news about this project very soon. *still praying to the gods*  Cannot tell you how excited I am about the possibility of Rob being in this film. Have been looking forward so much to hearing news of Rob signing on for a new film so it’s impossible not to get a little (or a lot) excited. Am definitely going to be purchasing the book, sounds like such a wonderful story.

Yes you read that right – I’m doing a special post because occasionally they happen, so for those of you who remember my gushing when I met Charlie back in October, I thought I’d wish him a Happy 14th Birthday – yes that’s right because if you follow @alchemission on Twitter you will know by now how cryptic Charlie is. Anyway – if you want more information on Charlie you should follow our awesome friends and elite affiliates Hanna & Mel at Team Bewley International.  See @Lise-Lou – you needn’t have worried about me abandoning Rob and starting a Charlie site – that would NEVER happen (I like Charlie – I adore Rob), plus Hanna & Mel have Charlie under control.
Oh and we forgot about Cuddles last week – so Happy Belated 29th Birthday Cuddles for 20 Jan 2009. Just so you know, Vertigo and I are going to give you your belated birthday present in April – better be careful of those fingers – you may not be able to use them as well after you meet us (well someone has to avenge Rob!) Again, if you want more info about Cuddles follow Hanna and Mel at Team Cudmore International – trackers&crackers united!
Ok I really look for any excuse to post this pic
Sanity have confirmed that the release date for the New Moon DVD in Australia will be 14 April 2010. (Hanna – you better make sure you order the million copies for your birthday because there’s a special bonus on the Volturi!) Yep you read that right, Sanity has an exclusive bonus disc that you get as a gift when you purchase through them – um how excited am I in relation to the first 10 mins of this disc:
Robert Pattinson Talks Back (10 mins)
Introducing The Wolf Pack (9 mins)
Introducing the Volturi (12 mins)
This information isn’t available on their website until Wednesday, but you can still preorder your copy now by clicking on the link above.
10 more minutes of Rob – music to my ears.

Most of you have undoubtedly heard about the collaboration of MTV, George Clooney and Wyclef Jean to host a 2 hour telethon to raise money for the Haiti earthquake. Well according to Marc Malkin of E Online Rob has agreed to host the London telethon:
“Robert Pattinson is on board.
I just got word that the Twilight star has signed on for Friday’s Hope for Haiti telethon. As of right now, it looks like Rob will be the sole presenter in London with performances by Jay-Z and Bono.”
No surprise really that Rob has agreed to help such a cause. I’m expecting that Rob’s footage will be linked with the US, but we will update you as more information comes to hand.  For us Aussies, you will be able to watch the ‘Hope For Haiti”  telethon on MTV (FOXTEL/Austar)  Saturday January 23 from 12:00pm (AEST).  You can click on the highlighted MTV link above for more info. If you want to make a donation, you should  head over to the Red Cross website because let’s face it only those blessed with incredible fortune will be lucky enough to talk and make a donation with Rob.
Yes, it’s still Michelle & Maria & of course Rob at Robert Pattinson Australia – you haven’t come onto a different site. Michelle and I have been talking about changing the look of the site for the last 6 months and we finally did it. It’s been in the pipeline now for the last month and a big thank you to Natasha from DZNROKR for the design and some great tips along the way  – you rock! So what do you think – like it? Oh and ignore the YouTube & MySpace networks – we are in the process of removing them. We haven’t updated MySpace since May and YouTube belongs to Cilla – the sites previous owner, although she makes amazing vids so you should check them out while you still can, but they aren’t all about Rob! Waves to Cilla.
