Rob says Breaking Dawn hinges on his schedule

Rob tells The Hollywood Reporter that he is committed to starring in the final movie in the Twilight Saga, "Breaking Dawn" outing to date but doesn't know when backers Summit Entertainment will begin production because of the actor's fully-loaded shooting schedule.

According to THR:

Dropping in on the Croisette on the way to shooting the final four days of "New Moon" in Italy on Friday, Pattinson said he is heading back to Vancouver in October to finish up "Twilight: Eclipse," the third installment. In between, the British actor, who turned 23 last week, plans to star in "Remember Me," which Summit also is producing.

The script adaptation for "New Moon" beefs up his character's role considerably -- in the book, Edward is a "a voice in Bella's head," he said.

Said Pattinson, laughing: "You're playing a figment in Bella's imagination so I was trying to do it in a 2-D way. I hope it doesn't translate onscreen as being boring." The hardworking actor is taking a few days off after completing "New Moon" before the start of the "Remember Me" shoot. He plans three days off after an eight-week planned shoot for "Remember Me" before finishing "Eclipse" before October.

Pattinson said "Remember Me" is very difficult to describe but said it is very much about him and, after reading the script last summer, felt a connection with it. The main protagonist is a 23-year-old man who spends six weeks after meeting someone working out if he is in love or not.

  2. While I am admittedly conflicted on the idea of "Breaking Dawn" going to the bigscreen, all I can think is the people at Summit better get their sh*t together soon.
