Playboy: For your next film 'Queen of the Desert' you have cast 'Twilight' teen heartthrob Robert Pattinson.
Herzog: He approached me. That is why I am taken seriously in Hollywood. Because so many good actors want to work with me. Nicolas Cage was never better than in 'Bad Lieutenant'.
Playboy: What do you see in Robert Pattinson?
Herzog: He has charisma, he is smart, he writes. I hope we will see him one day as a director. 'Queen of the Desert' is not yet fully funded, and we don't know yet where we will shoot. Possibly, that should be in Syria.
The interview is from January. There's a new update about the movie's possible location and schedule from June (click here)

Thank you. I think this Interview is from January
ReplyDeleteEgo much?... ~_~
ReplyDeleteHowever I do agree with him: I also see Robert as a director... Actually more than as an actor; and he's ready good as such, so my director-hopes are quite high... :)
Hopes? Or expectations?... Whatever... Sorry, my English sucks sometimes...
ReplyDeleteSuch high praise coming from Herzog ! HAPPY FOR Rob !!
ReplyDeleteHe has the talent, but he must grove up and learn too much to be a director. he is playful, he read much but that is not enough. He must learn so mch. He has time, he is young.
ReplyDeleteI have to concur with Mr. Herzog, that Robert has charisma and we knew it long ago. Hi twilightnan, LisaCT, no one special, Haxy, nimet and all RPLifers, hope everyone has a fantastic Friday.
ReplyDeleteRob definitely has a charm factor and I would love to read simething of his. Hello lovely ladies have a fab weekend.
