Max Irons Talks About Rob: "He's a very good actor"
New Rob Interview with San Francisco Chronicle
Sorry, ladies. In the daylight, Robert Pattinson's skin does not sparkle like diamonds. He's not even unusually pale. The closest he gets to his dreamy-vampire persona is when, during the course of conversation, he absently tousles his hair into something like his undead do. Perhaps the most surprising thing about Mr. Hunky Bloodsucker in person is how soft-spoken he is.
That is, until an unwanted visitor appears on the balcony.
"Jesus, I thought that crow was going to come in the room," he says. "That would be a bad omen!"
The large black bird has settled menacingly on the railing, facing outward but occasionally glancing over its shoulder as if to say, "I see you."
Menacing birds
"Weird," Pattinson says, laughing. "I've been having bad experiences with birds. I just got a dog and I was trying to make him pee out on the balcony and there were these enormous seagulls who have absolutely no fear of people. I genuinely thought a seagull was going to grab my dog. Terrifying."
Animals and animus are primary components in Pattinson's new film, the Depression-era romance "Water for Elephants." Pattinson plays Jacob, an erstwhile veterinary student who, after a personal tragedy, essentially runs away with the circus. There he meets performer Marlena (Reese Witherspoon), who is as enchanting as her husband, charming but imbalanced circus owner August (Christoph Waltz), is discomfiting. The web becomes more tangled when August's big new acquisition - a bull elephant - steps into it.
Jacqueline West, WFE Costume Designer, Says Rob Is The Next Brad Pitt
There’s no denying that Robert Pattinson is hot, but does he have what it takes to be the next Brad Pitt? "Water for Elephants" costume designer, Jacqueline West, who worked with Brad on "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button," seems to think so.
"I think Brad would think so too," Jacqueline told us.
Jacqueline, who designed all of Rob's 1930s looks in "WFE" (including his new favorite pair of underpants!) said that similar to Brad, designing for Rob was a treat.
"He's kind of perfect," she said. "He's easy, like Brad in that way. You can't put anything on them that they don't look good in." Ahh the advantages of being ridiculously good looking.
That's not where the similarities end though. Jacqueline added that the two guys have a lot more in common than their looks.
"Both of them are so nice to work with. They're both really lovely people and nice to everyone, respectful of everyone's work and collaborative and genuine," she said (as if we needed more reasons to love them). "There's something very down to earth about both of them. Brad, because he's from the Midwest, I think, and Rob, because he came from theater."
Jacqueline, who has met both Brad and Rob’s families (seriously, how can we get that job?), said that their upbringing is definitely to credit for their all-around awesomeness.
"I met both their families and they're both lovely and well brought up," she said.
And there’s more. Jacqueline also noticed a common thread in the way both actors work.
"They're similar in the way they approach characters and a part and how they're so respectful about their craft."
Okay, we're pretty much sold. RPattz could very well be the next BP, now all that's left is for the two of them is to star in a movie together, possibly opposite their other halves (a.k.a. Kristen Stewart and Angelina Jolie) both brunettes who they met on set (see what we did there?).

Fox, Color App Partner for 'Water for Elephants' Premiere (Exclusive)
An exclusive clip from the upcoming Reese Witherspoon - Robert Pattinson film will be available online before the red carpet begins Sunday.
20th Century Fox has teamed up with the makers of mobile app Color for Sunday's premiere of Reese Witherspoon and Robert Pattinson's film Water for Elephants.
The photos and videos taken using the Color app by attendees at the New York premiere at the Ziegfeld Theatre will be instantly shared to those in the immediate vicinity in a Water for Elephants premiere group (or "conversation"), which acts like an automatic feed.
Fox will also have one of the film's producers and some of the talent taking videos and pictures using the app as they make their way down the carpet.
Color, which launched in late March, is a free application for iPhone (and coming to Android and Windows 7) devices that allows people within 150 feet to capture and have real-time access to photos, videos and text. In one day, it was the second most popular social media application behind Facebook.
"With such a big following of Robert Pattinson and Reese Witherspoon, people will be camping out just to get to the front of the barricades," Color co-founder Peter Pham tells THR, who likened the app to a "visual Twitter.” "It'll give you a really good sense of what it's like from the fan's perspective. It's not the high-def professional cameraman taking the photos perched in a specific spot."
While Color is exclusive to mobile devices, aggregated content from the premiere will be made available online for the first time at www.color.com/waterforelephants to further engagement. The website will launch with a never-before-seen clip from the film at 1 p.m. PT on Sunday.
The team-up marks one of the first major partnerships for Color, but don't think this is a one-hit wonder. Pham tells THR that Color has received a "tremendous amount" of interest from high-profile musicians who want to use the app for their tours, with possible announcements to come.
But not everyone's buying into the hype. Critics of the app made note of Color's privacy issue — anyone within proximity has access to the images and videos in the network — and the confusing functionality.
Pham declined to discuss financial terms of the partnership.

"I guess I used to be weirder. When you’re confronted with yourself too much, you start to think, Jesus Christ, you’re so fucking boring. And the more you think you’re boring, the more you become boring. I talk about myself too much now." -Robert Pattinson
