Update 5/22: To see the latest Box Office Sales for Water for Elephants, click here.
Robert Pattinson brings in moviegoers by the millions for the Twilight series, but does he have Box Office draw when starring opposite a leading actress not named Kristen Stewart? Well, looks like he can do pretty darn well even without his life partner by his side in a movie.
Pattinson and co-star Reese Witherspoon‘s Water for Elephants premiered this weekend and the $40 million romantic drama, based on Sara Gruen’s novel, has already raked in an estimated $17.5 million – an amount much higher than expected for its genre.
“Adult films usually don’t sprint out of the gate. We did,” Fox executive Bert Livingston told eOnline. “I think being on bestseller list twice helped.”
Here’s how the other movies did at the Box Office Friday-Sunday (April 22- 24, 2011):
Spotted: Robert Pattinson attending his interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live Wednesday night in Hollywood, CA. Pattinson took the time before leaving to sign autographs and greet fans.
Robert Pattinson graces the cover of Italian Vanity Fair this month and he actually opens up about his views on relationships.
Pattinson continues about his convictions: “My parents met when my mom was 17 and my father 25, they are still together and seem very happy. I grew up believing that you can be together all of your life.”
The cover of the April issue of Vanity Fair has leaked early which is great for all TwiHards. Robert Pattinson graces this cover and the Twilight star is sporting a white button-down shirt and a black fedora. Oh, and he’s cradling a four-foot long alligator. Inside the issue, Pattinson talks about Kristen Stewart, the pitfalls of fame, and his admiration for Charlie Sheen.
On Kristen Stewart:
“Kristen is very focused on being an actress. I mean, that’s what she is—she’s an actress. Whereas I—I just don’t really know.” Pattinson continues, “She’s cool. Even before I knew her I thought she was a really good actress…I still think there are very few girls in her class that are as good as she is.”
On Charlie Sheen:
Pattinson admits that he isn’t all that exciting and doesn’t do anything ever that is scandalous but says he admires Charlie Sheen and his “little escapades,” explaining, “I like crazy people who don’t give a fuck.”
On fame:
“This thing with everyone knowing you … it’s weird, because people have this one-sided relationship where they look at your picture and feel they know you more than someone they actually know. I don’t really know myself that well.”
On popularity of Twilight:
“I can’t really understand it even now. It does have an angle which is attached to something quite primal in girls. I guess people want it to define them, like ‘I’m a Twilight fan.’… I think people really just like being part of a crowd. There’s something just tremendously exciting about hyping yourself up to that level.”
The April issue of Vanity Fair hits newsstands in New York and L.A. on Thursday, March 3, and nationally and on the iPad on Tuesday, March 8.
Oscar-winning Reese Witherspoon may be engaged to Jim Toth, but she still fell under the ever-oh-so-charming spell of her upcoming Water for Elephants‘ co-star, Robert Pattinson. I’d say, Reese, woah, control yourself. But then, seriously, who can blame her?
Entertainment Tonight reports that while shooting the film last summer, Witherspoon considered herself “so lucky” to be able to shoot love scenes with Pattinson.
“He’s so amazing and wonderful and sweet,” Witherspoon told ET. “And just the nicest guy too, so you can just add that to the soup. I mean, he’s just so good looking, and he’s a really nice person.”
And Pattinson tells ET: “Even then, I realized on the set….I look too old to be playing her son. I mean, that’s probably why I was cut.”
Vanity Fair has just released the list of top 40 Hollywood filmmakers (actors, directors, and producers) who made the most money in 2010.
Enjoy!
No one movie could adequately and beautifully portray an explosive honeymoon sex scene, a horrifying pregnancy and childbirth, and the threat of impending large-scale vampire massacre. So, to do the movie justice, the last book of the Twilight saga, Breaking Dawn, will be broken into two parts.
That’s not news to Twihards. But what is news is how this book will be broken into two. Producer Wyck Godfrey spoke to USA Today this week and tried to answer some of us fans’ biggest questions:
On how the story will be slit in half:
“We basically want to take the audience through the emotional part of Bella’s journey as she becomes a vampire. The first part will cover the wedding, the honeymoon and the birth.”
On how the film will be able to keep PG-13 rating despite the sex and horrifying birth scenes:
“It would be a crime against our audience to go R-rated. This is based on a much more mature book. We need to progress and be more sophisticated.” The bloody, bone-crushing childbirth will be seen only through Bella’s eyes. “She is looking through the haze, experiencing pain and everything rushing around her. We only see what she sees.”
On the Edward/Bella (Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart) sex scene:
“It does not become soft porn. It is a legitimate and important part of the movie, romantic and sensual.”
