Robert Pattinson is opening up about what’s on his mind once his project is finished.
During a recent conversation with him Batman Co-star Barry Keoghan in the film wonder land magazine, twilight The star asked him if he still feels connected to his films once he finishes them.
As for Pattinson, he said: “I was finding it very difficult to watch myself. Now, once it’s done, I feel completely disconnected. I mean, it wasn’t disconnected in a bad way, but it’s like…”
the Saltburn The actor noted that he feels “drained” and that once he finishes a film, he’s done with it. “I try to do what I did on the first day, on the last day,” Keoghan explained. I always try to keep that in mind, and that’s how I felt when I first played the lead, like I’m going to give the same energy that I gave on the first day to the last day. Just giving it my all, because sometimes, you know the end is coming and you can be half in and half out. But this scene may occur in the middle of the movie.”
On the other hand, when he first started a project, Pattinson said, “I’m almost more nervous when I’m not nervous.”
“That’s why whenever I start a new job… I mean, it doesn’t really help that I’m doing almost nothing right now, because I wish I was doing more.” Water for elephants The actor said during the conversation held before the actors’ strike ended. “Now I feel like I’m back to the beginning again. I know that the next time I do something, I’ll be like, ‘I can’t remember how to do any of this stuff.’ It’s nice to go through it as an amateur every time and say, ‘This is a huge mountain.’ Gotta climb it.” It’s like you’re being completely fake again.
Keoghan proceeded to share, saying that he feels that “learning about these things is dangerous because you kind of lose the spontaneity.”
“The nice thing about the job too, in general, is that if something worked well in a previous film and you say, ‘Everyone said that was good’ and you instinctively go, ‘Well, everyone loved that’ — I want to do that again,” Pattinson continued. “Then the next time, everyone says this is bullshit, and you’re like, what the hell is this?” …You are forced to reinvent.
In September, during a conversation with comedian Jordan Firstman interview Pattinson revealed in the National Interest that he actually feared not being able to fully commit to the role and give it his all.
“I have a deep, profound fear of humiliation,” he said at the time. “And also, you know it’s up to you. You can say it’s a bad script or the director’s an idiot or blah, blah, blah, but at the end of the day, no one’s going to care why. You’re the one that everyone will say is lame. And the vast majority of people will say you’re lame.” Lame even when you try your best.
