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.

Mark Rylance Mentions Robert Pattinson (or does he?)

Mark Rylance mentioned Rob in his latest interview with Total Film and gave us this short story about what happened on the set of Waiting for the Barbarians.

A scene where Mark’s character, Magistrate, is hanging from a gallows went wrong when a rope broke – but thankfully he was caught by co-star Robert Pattinson.

He recalled: “It was a stuntman who did a bit of it. It was frightening because the rope broke the first time we did it and I fell on the ground.

“Fortunately I fell on to the captain [Robert Pattinson] and he caught me.

“I got very upset that the rope was broken. I said, ‘What the f*** is going on?’ and all this stuff and everyone was looking down. And then I’d forgotten I was there dressed as a woman with a little bonnet on. Best to check in the mirror before you stand up to complain.”

Robert Pattinson and Tenet Featured in Fotogramas (Spain)

The July issue of Fotogramas Spain has a Tenet exclusive featuring interviews with Rob and John David Washington as well as some info on the film. Below is the full pdf together with the translation of Rob’s interview:

ROBERT PATTINSON AGAINST THE CLOCK AND THE TOPICS

The Londoner, who knew he was going to be the new Batman on the first day of filming “Tenet”, tells us (something) about his character and the challenges narratives of Nolan’s films.

We just saw him locked up next to Willem Dafoe in The Lighthouse (R. Eggers, 2019), a tour de force in which it shows, in case it was still necessary, that you have known how to use the trampoline from The Twilight Saga to become one of the most interesting and judicious actors
when choosing roles from recent years. To a list in the one highlighted by cult authors – from David Cronenberg to the Safdie brothers, passing by Claire Denis, James Gray or Ciro Guerra–, Robert Pattinson (London, England, 1986) now adds Christopher Nolan, uniting commerciality with
a contrasted personal look. The actor tells (something) to Fotogramas on Tenet with an eye to its future close as new Masked Crusader in The Batman.

Here’s the full Tenet edition from EW. I do love this little snippet from Rob:

ROBERT PATTINSON
“I’ve been desperately trying to not get fat. It’s just impossible. I watched the Tony Robbins documentary [I Am Not Your Guru] and got obsessed about those mini trampolines. I’ve spent a lot of time on a mini trampoline.”
