Robert Pattinson on not being 'beautiful' enough for 'Twilight'

We aim to please, Twilighters. That’s why we’re providing you with video footage of our interview earlier this week with ever-so-dashing Twilight star Rob Pattinson. (Ignore that ringing in your ears, everyone — that’s just Team Edward collectively squealing). Check out Part 1 below to hear Rob talk about his introduction to the series. If that doesn’t quite quench your thirst, log onto EW.com in the coming days to devour Parts 2-5 of the interview (in Part 5, he’ll be answering your questions, PopWatchers…you know, the ones that a handful of you suggested on our message board last week). Enjoy!

    Thanks… I guess I should’ve asked where the lyrics were to his contribution to the soundtrack. For the life of me I couldn’t understand what he was saying…

  • Mells

    As pretty as he is, I also have to admit that I can barely understand what he’s singing in either song from the soundtrack. Beautiful guitar playing though . .

  • Jennifer

    Video of Robert Pattinson with a picture of Christian Bale right above it? Thanks, Popwatch!

  • fan2321

    Aww, great interview! I think he will make a terrefic Edward. He really likes Kristen Stewart, which I think is really nice and sweet, it will probably make their scenes together even more powerful. Waiting for the next updates :)

  • jen

    I love you EW 5 parts!!!! yay

  • di

    He’s the most beauitful man I think I’ve ever seen.
    I love both of his tracks. The second one is way too short. I;d love to listen to at least 5 minutes of it.

  • Ruth

    It must have been hard picking from such a huge number of questions. I hope you didnt let us down EW. If you go to the press junkett at the weekend do try and ask more. Fan can never get enough info on him.

  • sarah

    OMG 5 parts thats awesome. I think he;s incredibly talented and so self depricating. That so unlike hollywood actors. I am certain he is the next Depp. He’s been described as a mix of James Dean and Depp and its a perfect description.

  • a very happy fan

    We love to read abotut Rob and to see him sit down and do a full interview is such a treat. Thanks for making us fans happy EW

  • Lorna

    If he ever sees this page I hope he gets to star as the lead role in Money by Martin Amis one day.

  • meg

    Must admit, I’ve never read Twilight and don’t plan to, and vampire stories freak me out, but I will see this movie because I kind of love him.

  • ker

    He’s so natural and adorable. I’m very fond of him.

  • georgie

    Whatever Rob, you have the most beautiful soul! That’s enough for me.

  • Wendy

    I think he has a fantastic handle on the role.

  • wendy

    I love the comment about a beautiful soul. So true

  • Dawn

    Twilight is more and more about Rob which I think is wonderful and less about cockblocker Meyer. YAY

  • Mikey M

    Wow. He is really good looking.
    YUM.

  • Yvette

    nice interview

  • Lani

    I love rob he is soo humble and lay back! he is edward period! good thing he still audition because if he didn’t I would probably won’t be as excited for the movie as now!! GO TwilIGHT!!

  • Danni

    He is pretty cute, but still not good enough for him to play Edward.

  • Lindsey

    His manner and way of speaking makes complete sense with his music now. I don’t think of Rob’s music on the Twilight soundtrack as Edward now, it’s just Robert the person.

  • bella

    Ohhhhhhh my goodness gracious he is SO ATTRACTIVE!!! i’m super duper excited about Twilight. Even if i can’t understand anything he says throughout the movie, at least i can stare at his gorgeous face. yummm =]

  • meow

    i agree, bella. he is the most amazingly good looking person on the planet. let’s all give him a round of applause for being oh-so-pretty.

  • alice

    i believe that robert pattinson is quite great. GO RPATZ!!

  • edwardluvver

    he is so sweet and hot. *drool*

  • Cathy

    Rob and Edward. Two completely different people. Edward was not my favorite character in the book – Jacob is……
    Rob is my favorite actor. He is gorgeous.

  • Sandi

    I had seen him in Harry Potter but then I didn’t pay much attention. Until I saw the advertisement for the Twilight movie….. I freaked! He is so gorgeous and the sneek peaks I saw on you tube prove that he is a great actor. He’s perfect for the part no matter how much he thinks he’s not!

  • Kathy D!

    HAHA. cockblocker meyer! so true.. and Robert Pattinson is absolutely AMAZING! to look at. so beautiful..
    if you ladies are through reading the Twilight series for the 5th time in a row, check out the Sookie Stackhouse series. it’s dirrrtay! and almost just as wonderful!

  • Crystal

    Pass this on – Calling all DIEHARD Twilight fans, if we want to see New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn on the big screen we need to work together on this! Hardwicke guesstimates that Twilight must gross $150 million for the studio to move ahead with the other films!!! Let’s get it done by getting the word out to friends and family!! We can do this!!

  • Darlene

    Awww thats so cute that he didnt think he was hot enough…
    Especially when he so obviously is! Love Rober Pattinson and love this interview! Really cant wait for the movie!<3
