Bel Ami is different from the Twilight movies that made you an international star. Why this movie?
Rob: I forced myself from the beginning to do different movies between each Twilight films because it made me feel better to become a normal guy again with no excessive makeup or contact lenses. That's why I wanted to do Bel Ami. I knew of Maupassant's novel because I love French litterature. The only regret I have is that we filmed in Hungary instead of Paris.

Why didn't you film in France?
Rob: It's very difficult to find the Paris from Guy de Maupassant in the French capital today. Whereas there's hundreds of streets in Budapest that look like Paris from the 19th century. But I hope to film in France soon.

Indiewire lists 'Bel Ami' as one of the top 10 indie movies to watch on VOD this May

Robert Pattinson takes a break from his "Twilight" duties to woo a slew of women in "Bel Ami," which had its world premiere at this year's Berlin International Film Festival. The film retells Guy de Maupassant's tale of social climbing in 19th century Paris, with Pattinson starring as a young seducer who takes advantage of some influential Parisian ladies (Uma Thurman, Kristin Scott Thomas abd Christina Ricci). The film arrives on VOD via Magnolia Pictures before opening in select theaters.

Check HERE for confirmed US cinema list for opening day, June 8th.

MTVThe clip opens in a boudoir with the mostly naked and slightly disheveled Clotilde de Marelle (Christina Ricci) lying in bed, post-tryst, posing a question to her equally scantily clad lover, Georges Duroy (Robert Pattinson). Duroy is a self-made man of sorts, who uses his wits and powers of seduction to rise from poverty to wealth, from a prostitute's embrace to passionate trysts with wealthy beauties in 19th-century Paris, where politics and media jostle for influence and where sex is power and celebrity an obsession.

"What are you reading?" de Marelle asks Duroy.

"It's a letter from my father. Every week he puts on his best suit and goes to the priest and the priest writes a letter for him," Duroy reveals as he gets back into bed. "And every week it's the same thing: 'Your mother sends her blessings. [The] pigs have diarrhea, when are you getting married?' My father's a peasant, he's never left his village. And he's asking me for money."

"I'd like to see where you grew up," says de Marelle, who appears to be a young lady of the upper class.
"I'd like to see you there," Duroy says intimately before locking lips with de Marelle.
"Promise me something," she requests. "Don't bring your other women here."
"I don't have other women," he counters.

"All men have other women," de Marelle says, which Duroy refutes and the lady reacts incredulously.
"Honestly?" she says.
"Honestly and truly," he answers.

Despite the sweetness and sincerity captured in this particular scene, Pattinson has teased that his character gets himself involved with a variety of female paramours. More importantly, in addition to his being shirtless in a lot of scenes, there's also a lot of his bare bottom in the film.

"I think there's a lot of my crack in it," he laughed when describing the film to MTV news. "I think there's quite a bit of nudity."

"Bel Ami" opens in Los Angeles, New York and select cites on June 8. The film will be available on VOD on May 4.

New short clip of DuRob smoking from the BBC Film 2012 Feature

DailyMail Philip Glenister Mentions Rob.

Philip Glenister has a funny interview with the Daily Mail in which he talks filming Bel Ami, and the fans that followed Rob around:

‘We were filming at a house in Hertfordshire adjoining a school. The pupils got wind of it and started chanting, “Robert, Robert”. We had to threaten them with cattle prods!’

HuffingtonPost Robert Pattinson has made a generation of girls swoon, and brought in millions of dollars for the producers of the Twilight phenomenon, where his portrayal of Edward Cullen means he needn't get out of bed again if he doesn’t feel like it.

So, it would be understandable if such adulation had gone to his pretty tousle-haired head, and made him a bit difficult to work with. How did the directors of his new film Bel Ami deal with such an idol on this, their very first film?

"He was delightful," insists Nick Ormerod, one half of the directing duo along with Declan Donnellan - established theatre directors with a body of stage, ballet and opera work more than three decades in the making, but novices when it came to film.


"He did insist on rehearsing for a whole month before we did our first shoot, which is apparently unheard of in Hollywood, but he was passionately attached to the project."

"He wasn't that famous when we offered him the part," remembers Donnellan. "He'd done Harry Potter, Twilight was just starting, and I remember seeing his face on the side of a bus.

Christina Ricci talks to MSN France about Rob's fame. At 0:25 and 0:50


The Telegraph - Christina Ricci talks about Rob at 0:50



MirrorUK He is one of the most bankable, handsome film stars in the world, and a household name having starred most famously as hunky Edward Cullen in the box office-storming Twilight series, and as Cedric Diggory in the Harry Potter films. Yet Christina Ricci knew almost nothing about Robert Pattinson, and had seen none of his movies, when they met on the set of the new erotic drama Bel Ami.

However, they still hit it off like old friends and turned a sometimes difficult film shoot into a fun-filled frolic.

“We would just goof off and laugh while we were working,” says Christina, 32.

“He’s a sweet guy and super funny... and a really good kisser.”

It was therefore easy for her to understand why Rob’s girlfriend, Twilight co-star Kristen Stewart, paid so many visits to the set.

“He’s so charming and smart,” Christina continues. “He’s so organised and in charge of his career. He was actually giving me advice,” adds Californian Ricci, who has been acting since she was nine years old.  Her favourite parts of filming, she says, were “the costumes, the makeup and Rob”
