Last night, in Los Angeles, Dior revealed the new face of it's leading men's perfume, Dior Homme. A heartthrob actor with a dazzling career that parallels the trajectory of the legendary fragance, who is the man behind the scent?

He's returned from Australia where he was filming the new David Michod movie with Guy Pierce, The Rover . And will soon kick off shooting David Cronenberg's Maps to the Stars alongside John Cusack and Julianne Moore. And then it will be the turn of Hold On To Me , from James Marsh. Any ideas? Previously, he was in Cosmopolis and Water For Elephants . Cinephiles should have already guessed... And his first role? Cedric Diggory in the fourth installment of the Harry Potter series. Getting warm? And then... Well then, of course, came the unforgettable Twilight saga. There can be no doubt remaining, and you've guessed it: Robert Pattinson will embody the new Dior man, the new Dior Homme

Article from Women's Wear Daily
PARIS — Parfums Christian Dior has confirmed that actor Robert Pattinson is the new face of Dior Homme fragrance.

The “Twilight” star joins an illustrious list of celebrity ambassadors for Dior fragrances, which include Jude Law, Alain Delon, Natalie Portman and Charlize Theron.

American photographer Nan Goldin and French director Romain Gavrais shot the campaigns starring Pattinson, Dior said, noting they are to be broadcast in Europe excluding the U.K. and Asia, excluding China and Japan.


The article from WWD has been updated with more info

According to Dior, the print campaign will break from Sept. 1 in a range of magazine titles for women and men, along with daily newspapers.

The television commercial, shot largely in New York, is to debut the same month in 60-second and 80-second lengths.

Dior's Official Statement - Article from Marie Claire UK
After months of speculation about the star's rumoured partnership with the brand, the House of Dior has released an official statement today confirming the campaign.

They said: 'The House of Dior is delighted to announce that actor Robert Pattinson is to be the new face of Dior Homme fragrance.'

The statement then goes on to praise Robert's successful career in a number of high-profile movies, saying: 'Since his first notable role in 2005 in the fourth Harry Potter sequel, film star Robert Pattinson has more recently come to be known through his role in the runaway box office success, the Twilight saga.

'He has since proven the scope of his acting talents by choosing films as varied as Remember Me by Allen Coulter, Water for Elephants by Francis Lawrence, in which he starred alongside Reese Witherspoon, or with his role as Bel-Ami, the famous Maupassant character.

'In the ultimate tribute to his talent, David Cronenberg chose him to star in his latest picture, Cosmopolis, adapted from the novel by Don de Lillo. A striking role as a golden boy which premiered at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival.

'He has recently completed filming David Michod¹s The Rover in Australia with Guy Pearce and will soon be on set for David Cronenberg¹s next picture, Maps to the Stars. Following on he will star in Hold on to Me, directed by James Marsh and co-starring Carey Mulligan.'


(...)

Dior Homme adds: 'Today we are excited to announce that he will join the privileged circle of Dior faces. Photographed by American artist Nan Goldin and filmed by French director Romain Gavras, this new Dior Homme communication campaign is currently broadcast exclusively in Europe (except UK) and Asia (except China and Japan).'

  3. O MY GAWD!!! I was fucking freaking out just to read the title.......
    hope the ad will come out soon...

    if pics are not allowed does it mean that there won't be any vid of the conference? :( hope I'm wrong (fingers crossed)
    but gotta say though, that one who got his/her (not sure) arms around Rob does look like Rob himself, what is this mean?

    waving to twilightnan, LisaCT, Iluv... and my other RPLifer friends...... I'm sure you guys are nearly fainting as I am...... ;-)

  11. FIrst of all, if taking pics was forbidden, then these pics are robbed.(ironic coincidence of words).I don't think anybody would hav edited if no pics was out.
    Secondly, it doesn't seem to me Rob was pleased being in those 2 pics at the party. No smile on his face and I am sorry.
    The pics taken on the wall, prom Dior campaign, with Rob being embraced by someone: if that someone is Robert again,then it makes sense the motto "being an actor, am actor is on his own". The imagine matches with the motto and Rob surely accepted because of loneliness' theme in.Even if lonely, give yourself a hug and wear Dior. Rob's imprint. Just like I thought. he has well chosen once again. He doesn't try to fit in the things, he takes what fits on HIM.Smart, smart, smart, smart.

  12. Where did you see pics of him at the after party? All pictures posted here are screencaps from the ad.

    And the person hugging him is not Rob. It's a woman, a french model actually.

  13. OH! NOOOOO!!not to be screened in UK!that's not fair:(...hopefully we will see the ads in England...This DIORROB campaign will run for 3yrs...super Excited we will be seeing Rob's gorgeous face everywhere department stores,billboards,Airports..anywhere advertising Dior ROB!!:)..I'll try and grab one lol!...I have not seen any after party pics yet...I suppose the press were only allowed to take pics of the ads--thus the screencaps pics and not of Rob at the conference...hi to all my friends here..you know who you all are guys:)...Thank you RPLife for all the updates!

    @twilightnan, sorry can't help it. ;D
    I am sure that that model must felt she just got bbqed after shooting that scene....I can even feel the heat just by looking at those pics, don't know how she maintained alive through the hotness, but dear God, sure she IS lucky. Damn!

    ReplyDelete
  49. He always seems to be able to convey such intense emotion in his kisses. The last scene in Twilight, in the Gazebo, you could just feel the emotion behind that kiss. Not all actors can do this.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Okay. Please educate me why aren't they showing all those places??

    ReplyDelete
  51. Hi twilightnan, nimet, Lisa, Mayfair, no one, and RPLifers, I have to join in and just say there are absolutely no words that can express how utterly amazing that kiss is from me. In all the Twilight saga, I never saw him kiss Bella like that. Damn, that kiss is sizzling. I have to wonder why Gucci, with their vast amount of suits they supplied to Rob, did not approach Rob for a clothing line or fragrance. I have no clue whether they offered him anything and the price was nit enough, but thank you Dior for putting this man behind your fragrance. I am in bliss, this is only the tip of what we will see in future ads and video and I am too excited for words.
