Video from the Cosmopolis Press Conference in Portugal
What was his most difficult scene to film/to act?
Robs answer at 1.45: “There was a scene that made me incredibly uncomfortable, the rave scene. That was the only scene where there were a lot of extras around that could actually hear what I was saying. They were pretending to rave, but it was totally silent, I think I had like 2 lines, and when youre pretending to speak over music youve really got to shout it. So I was like “YES” and every single person is just, over hearing that, thinking what is this film, so weird. Yeah that was a little bit nerve wracking. But its one of my favourtie scenes in the movie.”

New Picture and Interview from Portugal
How would you define Eric Packer (main character in 'Cosmpopolis'): it he just a sort of a weirdo or is he a visionary?
He's just a weirdo(laughs). I think he is a person who is desperately looking for something but doesn't know what that is. Basically, no one is a visionary, the world repeats itself.
But wasn't Don DeLillo's a visionary when he write the book? Because the story was written 12 years ago, but is current and reflects the global economy today...
Yes, that's crazy. But at the same time, the collapse of financial markets... it seemed obvious that would happen.
Do you follow news about the economy, the reality of Europe?
In general but not specifically. It's weird. I know they're all terrified of what's happening.
The dialogues of 'Cosmopolis' explores this theme but in a poetic, theatrical way. Do you believe that there are people that speak like that?
It is a little too theatrical. But Eric is a guy who doesn't share his world. In his universe, everybody speaks his language, behaves like he wants. He is totally egocentric, maniac, wants to be God.
And how different is Robert from Eric?
(Laughs) He's really confident and thinks no one can change him. While I... I change in every new talk, with every new person. I want to please those who talk to me.
But are you a confident person...
Kind of. I'm more confident when everyone hates me.
But they all love you, especially because of the success of 'Twilight'. Did you accept this movie because you thought it would change your career and turn you into a "serious" actor or was it because you would film with someone like David Cronenberg?
I try to do all my jobs as if I'm a serious actor (laughs). And some people forget that I ever did in the past... But David's (Cronenberg) movies are all so unique and personal that I knew it was important to make this movie.
At the Cannes Film Festival, critics were divided: hated and loved the movie. Do you really care about reviews?
I am always surprised. I thought no one would notice the film (laughs). But I like to see such passionate reactions, in any sense whatsoever. And everyone cares about the critics. I care about what everyone says. I care about what girls (fans) outside will tell and maybe they won't even like it
Are you going to work with Cronenberg again?
Yes, in a movie about the movie industry. Really fun and bizarre. I still don't know when we're going to film because I have other projects...
Do you think 'Cosmopolis' could be an Oscar movie?
I don't know. I keep my expectations low.
But winning an Oscar is the biggest dream for an actor...
Completely. Actors are moved by the awards, it is as if they were kicked on the head.

'Cosmopolis' Portugal Premiere - Pictures and Videos

Another New Picture + Quotes from Rob Today in Portugal
"The hardest part was the initial stress before I started filming 'Cosmopolis', but soon the fear was gone," Robert Pattinson told journalists at the CCB.
Outside, since early morning, dozens of young fans of the "vampire" from the 'Twilight' saga, lined up around the barriers surrounding the red carpet - where there will be a premiere, starting at 8PM - waiting to see their idol. They didn't know that at that very early on (11:30AM), he was already inside the building.
"We brought a t-shirt to give to him. I don't know if I will be able to say something when see him," said the two fans, Patricia and Sandra, creators of the site 'Twilight ao Amanhecer'. The t-shirt could not be more clear about the feelings towards the actor: 'Keep Calm and don't forget to be awesome'.
Pattinson is calm, in the press room when he tells the journalists that he's aware that "this role is very different from his character in Twilight. "It was a gift," admits the actor who knows he is idolized by millions of fans. "I care about what everyone thinks. I know that many young girls will see the movie and I hope everyone enjoys it."
David Cronenberg liked to film. The film. And the actor. "It was all fun and Robert Pattinson is a great actor", he said.
Outside, Patricia, Sandra and all their friends that came from various parts of the country, as well as others, that came from Spain, would like to be heard. "If I can, I'll give him a hug," said one of the girls. The day will be devoted entirely to wait for the premiere, and while they can't see the 'vampire' of their dreams, they run to anything connected to the idol.
When they see Clare and Richard, Robert Pattinson' parents, the hysteria is huge. Time to set cameras and phones and wave nervously. It's not Robert. But for now, they know that they are out there with his parents, it's kind of a proximity ...

Director David Cronenberg and actor Robert Pattinson were at the Centro Cultural de Belem in Lisbon, this Tuesday, at the press conference for the film 'Cosmopolis', produced by Paulo Branco, while dozens of fans were waiting outside the premiere, scheduled for this night.
The film, - which premiered in the Official Selection of the Cannes Film Festival in France last week, but didn't win any prize - will have it's second public screening in Lisbon, for a premiere at the CCB at 8:30PM, with the appearance of Cronenberg and the movie's lead actor, Robert Pattinson. There is another premiere scheduled, at 10PM at Monumental Cinema, also with the presence of both.
During a meeting today with the press, the Canadian director and British actor, accompanied by producer Paulo Branco told us some details about the shooting of the film, an adaptation of the novel by Don DeLillo.
At the entrance of the CCB, where a red carpet is already set, about twenty Pattinson fans at 12PM, were already waiting for tonight's premiere. Among them were four Spanish girls from Valladolid, that are there since Monday night.
'Cosmopolis' is the first film where Robert Pattinson worked with David Cronenberg, after being the lead actor of the vampire saga "Twilight," a worldwide box office success.
Robert Pattinson plays the role of a millionaire, Eric Parker, who want to go across New York in a limousine to get a haircut.
The trip, that lasts a whole day, is a metaphor about his life and his selfdestruction until a final confrontation - a crucial dialogue in the movie - with a former employee (played by actor Paul Giamatti).
"The dialogues from the book were what gave me the certainty that this could be a movie. They were dramatic, interesting. Don DeLillo wrote very specific dialogues and I transcribed all of them for [the script], "Cronenberg said.
Robert Pattinson, who has in "Cosmopolis" the first major dramatic role of his career, admitted that he was "scared" at the beginning because he didn't know if the movie would work, since it had too much text, the story is set inside a limousine and he's in almost every scene.
Now that the movie is done, the actor admits that he thinks about acting and cinema differently. Pointed as one of the actors that will be on the sequel of "The Hunger Games" [Note: he already denied those rumors] we don't know much about his future projects. Pattinson says that he doesn't know what kind of characters he would like to play in the future, but that he has a wish: "I just hope to play good characters."
Cronenberg caused a hearty laugh at the press conference when he said that he chose Pattinson because "he was very inexpensive, he was available and would follow the director's orders."
"I saw some of his interviews on Youtube and I noticed his sense of humor. We had fun filming, even though it's a dark movie (...). I had to kind of convince him, but not to convince him it would be an interesting movie, but to convince him that he was the right one to do the role," he said.
David Cronenberg, 69, director of movies like "Videodrome" (1983), 'The Fly' (1986), "Crash" (1996) and "A History of Violence" (2005), said he is still digesting everything that the film represents.
"We showed the film at Cannes and it was the first time I watched it with an audience. I Still don't know what the movie brought to my life, but it already made a difference. We have been quoting parts of the movie. The movie means many things," he said.
This was the first time that Paulo Branco worked with David Cronenberg, to whom he suggested the adaptation of the novel by Don DeLillo.
'Cosmopolis', that will be released in Portugal on Thursday, is considered an independent film, with a budget of 15 million euros.
