Robert Pattinson interview in Cinemania Spain

7/1 Update: Untagged version shared by photographer Lorenzio Agias on IG

Here’s the rough (Google translate) translation:

“Between ‘Tenet” and’ The Batman ‘I have aged 10 years“

Robert Pattinson – Before putting on the superhero costume, he accompanies John David Washington on his mission to save humanity

To what extent do Tenet’s themes speak to the world in which we live?
Tenet’s characters wake up one morning and discover that their qualities no longer serve the reality in which they live. And they have to adapt very fast to survive. It is very strange that this is exactly what we have lived in the last months.

Was the filming very physically demanding?
Yes. Going from the filming of Tenet, the most demanding thing I have done physically, to The Batman, I think it has made me age 10 years. Also because John David is a full-fledged athlete and, not only that, but he has a true athlete mentality. If you run he will sprint to his maximum capacity, again and again and again. In every take, in every rehearsal … And my career has basically been designed around the concept of sitting in armchairs and going on vacation [laughs]. We were supposed to show even skills but there were weeks of shooting where I couldn’t even walk.

Did Nolan give you any advice on how to play Batman in The Batman?
Not at all. He is very respectful. I think the only conversation we had about Batman was the last day of filming.

I loved Fear & Shame, your short. Would you like to direct?

Yes. I would love to. I think I am becoming more organized as I get older so I think I would be able. But I need a story.

Would you say that your work with prestigious directors like Claire Denis or the Safide Brothers has helped you along that path?
Yes, yes. What I know for sure is that it has helped me a lot as an actor. When you work with directors you admire, it is much easier to trust them. And when you have no doubts about the movie you are making you learn a lot more. I have been very fortunate to work with these talented directors

Thanks Aimee

New Photo of Robert Pattinson in Germany’s Cinema Magazine

The latest issue of Cinema Germany has a Tenet special and an interview with Rob (translated with Google Translate), but if anyone can provide a better translation it would be much appreciated. Although it seems that there’s nothing new in this interview and may be pieced from others.

How did director Christopher Nolan cast you?
At our first meeting he didn’t have “Tenet” ma! mentioned! We talked for three hours, I thought I messed it up. Or there is no film at all. In the last five seconds Chris said: “! I wrote this thing, maybe you may come back tomorrow and read.”

And how was the reading?
I was alone in a locked room. At the beginning I knew where I was in the script. Then it starts to change genres and the frame expands and expands, it becomes incredibly complex with a bravura technique.

Were there moments on the set when you didn’t understand what to play?
Yes. You don’t want what’s going on, but you shouldn’t either. It is a fun film and not a lesson in physics. The complex concepts that smoke your head! awake instead of deterred. What was it like again? Making “big” film – and now Batman too? I’m always looking for scary projects. All I’ve done in the past eight years has been to run and jump to an abyss. It was a personal one

Deciding not to do anything “big” after “Twilight”?
Honestly no. There was never an offer – nothing. Chris is perhaps the most learned director who can make such films based on his own original material.
