He’s a dreamboat is the understatement of the year. These two lucky ladies were Hermione stunt doubles on the HP films and as part of their recollection talk about Rob on the set of Goblet of Fire.

Ever wanted to own a Cedric Diggory collectible in the image of Rob (albeit he looks a little angrier than Cedric and/or Rob ever did). The current image is the prototype for the latest Star Ace Toys 1/6 scale figure and final shipped image may differnt. Two versions will be released – a standard (Triwizard) and deluxe (Cedric Diggory) with extra accessories coming exclusively to the deluxe. Both versions will show off Cedric in his Hufflepuff outfit and will include a wand, broom and Triwizard Cup. The deluxe will also include Cedric’s Hogwarts school uniform in Hufflepuff colors, magical flash effects and the Golden Egg.
Sideshow and Star Ace present the Cedric Diggory (Deluxe Version) Sixth Scale Figure! Cedric Diggory was the most handsome, the smartest, the most popular, and the best Quidditch player at Hogwarts, and he was the favorite to win the Triwizard Tournament. But he got caught up in Voldemort’s plot to return to power, and it was Cedric’s fate that signaled a dark turn for the Harry Potter saga. This 1:6 scale articulated figure of Cedric Diggory features an authentic likeness of Robert Pattinson as the character outfitted in his Triwizard competition outfit from the final challenge. Accessories include his wand, a flying broom, and the Triwizard Cup. The Deluxe version also includes his Hogwarts school uniform in Hufflepuff colors, magical flash effects, and the Golden Egg.
Cedric Diggory (School Uniform) preorder and more info HERE (currently priced at AUD370.87) and expected to ship between October – December 2021.

Robert Pattinson is easily the most successful child star to come out of “Harry Potter”
According to The Insider, although Rob only appeared in one Harry Potter film “The Goblet of Fire” (well two technically if you take the pics of Cedric into account in the Order of the Phoenix), he is the most successful child star to come out of the franchise:
Could it have been anyone else? Pattinson spun his one-movie role into the leading man of one of the other biggest franchises of the 2010s: “Twilight.”
After a decade of distancing himself from big blockbusters by starring in films like “Good Time” and “The Lighthouse,” Pattinson is ready for his big, mainstream comeback. He starred in “Tenet,” “The King,” and is going to become Batman next year. There’s no one else that compares, honestly.

You may remember Tolga Safer from Harry Potter & The Goblet of Fire. He shared this photo with Rob taken in New York on his IG today. I may or may not have had the Phelps brothers sign the version below when I met them at the Harry Potter Exhibition in Sydney back in 2011. I still remember their reaction – is that Rob? Um yeah and then I’m sure they wondered how I got that pic *sideeyes*

Vogue UK focuses on 10 Defining Roles from Robert Pattinson
Vogue UK has run an editorial piece entitled “10 Defining Robert Pattinson Roles to Devour” – they focus on the following films “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire”, “The Twilight Saga”, “Cosmopolis”, “The Rover”, “Maps to the Stars”, “The Childhood of a Leader”, “The Lost City of Z”, “Good Time”, “High Life” and “The Lighthouse” claiming they feature Rob’s best performances. I’m not sure why they didn’t add “Damsel” or “The King”, since in my opinion, they show Rob’s comedic capabilities and are definitely memorable. In any event, below is an extract from the article:
There are few actors working today who are as versatile as Robert Pattinson. The 34-year-old Londoner first made a splash at the age of 19, when he caused a generation of Harry Potter fans to swoon at his chivalrous, clean-cut portrayal of Cedric Diggory in the fourth instalment of the series. Then came Twilight, the vampire saga which became a cultural phenomenon, grossed over $3.3 billion worldwide and secured the actor an obsessive global following.
Instead of parlaying his newfound fame into another blockbuster franchise, Pattinson confounded his critics and grew into a mainstay of auteur cinema. He played British officer TE Lawrence in Werner Herzog’s Queen of the Desert (2015), an ambitious photographer in Anton Corbijn’s Life (2015), a street hustler in the Safdie brothers’ explosive crime drama Good Time (2017), a bumbling pioneer in the Zellner brothers’ feminist western Damsel (2018) and, most recently, an officer in Ciro Guerra’s JM Coetzee adaptation Waiting for the Barbarians (2019).
Considering his off-beat oeuvre, the industry was stunned once again when it was announced in May 2019 that Pattinson would be transforming into the caped crusader for Matt Reeves’ hotly anticipated reboot The Batman. Could this spell a permanent return to the mainstream? Perhaps his next role, in Christopher Nolan’s big-budget time-bending thriller Tenet, will provide the perfect balance between arthouse credibility and commercial clout. Ahead of its scheduled release in cinemas on 12 August, we revisit Pattinson’s 10 most memorable performances to date.
