I cannot believe this was 9 years ago today and guess what it’s raining again. The photo below was taken by me the first time RPAU met Rob at the Breaking Dawn Pt 2 fan event. It was the second time Rob came to Sydney. He was such a gentle soul and I’m so thrilled to still be here celebrating his career.

Denis Guignon shared two more photos of Rob one being a full colour version of the black and white below.

28 September 2021: Denis Guignon shared 2 photos on his instagram when he was bodyguard to Rob at Deauville Film Festival in September 2017 and then I noticed these two black and whites he posted last year that I don’t think I’ve shared before.

We have previously posted photos from this unknown Cosmopolis photoshoot. Remember the one which featured on the cover of Telerama? Now we have 6 new tagged pics (I’ve posted the full 9 but we have seen 3 of them before). It seems this is from a camera/makeup test similar to the ones we’ve recently seen of Rob from The King. You can check out all pics from this shoot in our Gallery

Weibo Thanks Angel.

I cannot believe Yellow Moth Makeup got to apply tattoos daily on Rob during production of Good Time but here’s her proof.

Thanks Pattinson Photos for heads up.

With the release of the Twilight series on Netflix, Burce Dallas Howard (“Victoria”) had this fun fact to share about her time on the film. What I want to know is why didn’t they think of marketing those notepads!

Fun Fact: My brother-in-law made a notepad for me to use with Robert Pattinson’s face with “live dangerously” at the bottom.⁣⁣

I will never forget watching the original Twilight in 2008. Every time Edward Cullen (#TeamEdward) was on screen I would squeeze my husband’s hand — sorry @stealthgabel 🤣⁣⁣

I love that the series has been released on @netflix ♥️

The Twilight Saga was released this week on Netflix USA and Scott Mendelson wrote an opinion piece for Forbes on how Twilight occupied all 5 tops spots among Netflix’s Most-Watched Movies. Below is an excerpt:

The $3.3 billion-grossing Twilight Saga did more than any other modern franchise to debunk the notion that films for and about girls and women were box office poison.

…

However, at least for today, all five of the top movies on Netflix’s “daily most-watched” list are all five installments in The Twilight Saga. Alas, they aren’t in exact order, as it goes Catherine Hardwicke’s Twilight (the first and still the best), Chris Weitz’s New Moon (the worst), Bill Condon’s Breaking Dawn part II (the best sequel with a terrific final reel), David Slade’s Eclipse (the threequel and the only chapter to crack $300 million domestic) and Condon’s Breaking Dawn part I (the one where Bella and Edward get married and have bed-breaking sex before birthing a human/vampire baby).

…

Stewart and Pattinson both “recovered” from the “Eww, those movies are for girls” cultural backlash and became prestigious and engrossing adult actors. … Pattinson is playing Batman and has crafted an onscreen persona closer to Chris Walken and Crispin Glover than Chris Hemsworth or Chris Pine. I wish Catherine Hardwicke got more mileage out of launching the franchise. Twilight, with an indie sensibility and a self-knowing wit, is easily the best of the bunch.
