Bericht in englisch - David Cronenberg spricht mit " ET!Online " über Robert Pattinson
Crawling All Over Pattinson's Face in 'Cosmopolis'
By DAVID WEINER December 27, 2012
Twilight vamp Robert Pattinson plays a bloodsucker of an altogether different kind – the Wall Street kind – in his new movie Cosmopolis, on Blu-ray and DVD New Year's Day, and the film's director David Cronenberg tells ETonline that he was actually quite impressed with what Rob brought to the table, and that after the baggage of casting -- once you get to that point when you're on set and cameras are rolling -- "Twilight is irrelevant."
"He surprised me every day with good stuff," says Cronenberg. "I don't do rehearsals, and I try not to shape the actor's performance at first. I want to see what his intuition is going to deliver. And then if there's a problem then I start to shape it, nudge it, manipulate it a little bit. I did very little of that with Rob."
Based on the novel by Don DeLillo, Cosmopolis follows one day in the wild life of multi-billionaire asset manager Eric Packer, who travels aimlessly through the streets of New York City in his limousine while conducting investment trading from the back seat. As the day progresses, it devolves into an odyssey with a cast of characters that start to tear his world apart.
"He absolutely would say to you right now, 'I had no idea what I was doing at any time,' and he would mean it," says the veteran director of Rob's performance. "I think he really didn't realize how good he was. … He was surprising himself, but he was surprising me by his accuracy. It was just dead on. I mean, by the end of it we were doing one take. Honestly the whole last scene, the whole last shot in the movie with him and Paul [Giamatti] -- one take. And it's a long take as well. And it's very emotional, and very subtle. One take for both of them, it was so good. … In fact, we finished the shoot five days early, and a lot of that was due to Rob."
Of course, when Cronenberg first cast Rob, he had to overcome what he calls Twilight "baggage," explaining, "You often have to consider what we call baggage for an actor, and you have to decide whether it's a problem or not. I hate the idea of it because I know I'm going to be on the set with the guy at three in the morning shooting in the streets of Toronto, and none of that stuff is relevant. We're just two people trying to make the movie work. So his past performances, or his fame, or lack of it, or whatever the factor is, is at that point irrelevant. What's relevant only is what we can do creatively with each other.
"On the other hand, when you're financing a movie you have to have lead actors who have some weight and some substance and will attract investors so that you can get your movie financed, so it's a weird situation," he continues. "Aside from the fact that yes, he was an exciting and interesting, surprising choice in terms of how investors viewed it -- and it worked because we got the financing for the movie -- after that Twilight is irrelevant, you know?"
What mattered most to Cronenberg was that his lead could carry the scene and had the proper charisma: "It starts very simply with is he the right age, does he have the right look, does he have the right presence onscreen?" he says. "He is in absolutely every scene in the movie, and that's really quite rare. Even in a movie with Tom Cruise, you don't see Tom in every scene. But in this case you do, and so he has to have some charisma. You have to want to watch him for that long and that intensely, because I knew I was going to be crawling all over his face with the camera."
Of course, it wouldn't be a David Cronenberg film without a little oral or anal fixation – themes prominently placed in such films of his as Naked Lunch, Dead Ringers and Videodrome – and there's an especially amusing scene during Cosmopolis in which Rob gets examined by a doctor in his limo and discovers that he has an "asymmetrical prostate."
"Orifices are the entry and exit of our bodies, and that really talks about identity and where the boundaries of an individual identity end and where the environment begins," says a straight-faced Cronenberg, adding with a laugh, "I could do an academic analysis of my own movies, but that wouldn't help me create [my new] movies. … You could do that analysis and make those connections amongst the movies, and you'd be correct."

Cosmopolis
If you’ve learned anything from David Cronenberg at all, you should know to never have expectations. If you, for instance, believed Cosmopolis, (adapted from the Don DeLillo novel) would be in the same vein of his now iconic body horror fare, you would be so very wrong. Reading much like a play, where characters stare off into space and seem to be speaking in riddles, Cosmopolis’ stark tones and direction fuse with a surprisingly confident performance from Twilight’s vampiric hunk Robert Pattinson to create yet another intriguing controversial masterpiece from the iconic Cronenberg.

Robert Pattinson für Vancouver Critics Choice Awards nominiert Späte Ehre für "Cosmopolis"
Trotz des kaum vorhandenen Erfolges von “Cosmopolis”, können sich die Produzenten zum Ende des Jahres doch noch freuen. Hauptdarsteller Robert Pattinson und der Film selbst wurden für die Vancouver Critics Choice Awards nominiert.
Mit dem Preis werden die besten kanadischen Projekte und Schauspieler geehrt. Pattinson kann sich Hoffnungen in der Kategorie “Best Actor in Canadian Film” machen. Er tritt gegen schlagbare Konkurrenz wie Melvil Poupaud (“Laurence Anyways”) und Michael Rogers (“Beyond the Black Rainbow”) an.
David Cronenberg wurde als bester Regisseur vorgeschlagen, sein Film Cosmopolis geht als bester kanadischer Film ins Rennen.
Erstaunlich: Das Werk spielte weltweit nur $6 Millionen ein. Die Fans wollten Robert Pattinson als strauchelnden Milliardär Eric Packer also nicht sehen, noch dazu gesellte sich die limitierte Anzahl der Kinos, in denen der Film überhaupt lief.
Wenigstens bei den Kritikern scheint er anzukommen. Die Vancouver Critics Choice Awards werden von Radio- und TV-Sendern, Zeitungen und Online-Publikationen vergeben. Nominiert sind unter anderem auch Jennifer Lawrence (“Silver Linings Playbook”), Tommy Lee Jones (“Lincoln”) und Christoph Waltz (“Django Unchained”). Hier ist die komplette Nominierungsliste im Überblick.

Interwiev in englisch - David Cronenberg spricht über " Cosmopolis " Star Wars & die Twilight Fans mit dem " Drails.com.Blog"
Q&A David Cronenberg on Cosmopolis, Star Wars, and Exposing Twilight Fans to Don DeLillo
David Cronenberg isn't quite a household name (unless your house is full of macabre horror fans who enjoy watching circa 1980s Jeff Goldblum morph into a fly). But the 69-year-old Toronto native has been one of film's most critically acclaimed directors for over thirty years. In 2012, he crafted one of the year's best (and most difficult) movies with Cosmopolis, an adaptation of Don DeLillo's novel with Twilight star Robert Pattinson in the lead. On the cusp of the film's Blu-ray and DVD release, we sat down with the legendary director to discuss his car obsession, expanding the minds of Twilight fans everywhere, and his inability to get back in the TV game.
DETAILS: You directed Fast Company (1979), Crash (1996), and now Cosmopolis. What is it about sexy cars that keeps pulling you back in?
DAVID CRONENBERG: The car here is very metaphorical. It's a time machine. It's a time capsule. It's a spaceship. And it's a tomb in a way. It's a mausoleum for [Cosmopolis character Eric Packer]. It really has metaphorical import more than car import for me.
DETAILS: Did having someone as marketable as Robert Pattinson in the lead help get Cosmopolis made?
DAVID CRONENBERG: It's not just Rob, but this was a Canadian-French co-production so actors like Juliette Binoche and Mathieu Amalric really do contribute to the strength that you have when you're trying to find money. What matters is, do you have a good actor working with you?
DETAILS: What made you want to cast Rob? This part is so far removed from what his enormous Twilight fan base would normally see him in.
DAVID CRONENBERG: Surprisingly enough they were very interested in it and developed websites for Cosmopolis just because of Rob. And a lot of the girls were talking about reading "Cosmopolis." I think the only thing they had read, probably, was "Twilight" and "Harry Potter," and suddenly they're reading Don DeLillo.
DETAILS: Did spending most of the film inside the limo feel more like a limitation or a freedom?
DAVID CRONENBERG: I actually like shooting in confined spaces. I find that you get an automatic enhancement of intensity and it's also a really interesting visual challenge. Prior to shooting, I showed my crew Lebanon, which is this Israeli movie that takes place entirely inside a tank and Das Boot, which takes place almost entirely in a submarine. Just to encourage them to feel not the limitations, but the creative possibilities.
DETAILS: There's a very slick, high-tech fashion to the film. What was your inspiration for the look of Rob's character?
DAVID CRONENBERG: It all comes from what the characters are supposed to be in the movie. They're both very wealthy. They're both very comfortable with their wealth. It's interesting because some people have asked, "Is Rob's fame a parallel to Packer?" And I say, "No, quite the contrary. Eric Packer is not famous at all. He doesn't want his name in the paper." He dresses well, but sort of conventionally. In fact, Rob said that he wanted the guy to be dressed in almost a non-descript way. It's expensive clothes, but it's not flashy.
DETAILS: You cut your teeth on "body horror" films like The Brood and The Fly. Do you think you'll ever go back to the horror/sci-fi genre?
DAVID CRONENBERG: It's not that I've consciously turned my back on any genre or themes and images, but I don't want to bore myself. I don't want to bore my audience either, but more importantly, I don't want to bore me. A lot of the scripts that I get sent are almost remakes of my old movies and, sometimes, they literally are remakes of my old movies. Why would I do that? I'd be bored.
DETAILS: What's the status of The Fly companion piece that you wrote?
DAVID CRONENBERG: You'd have to ask Fox about it. As far as I know, it's dead. Technically, Fox could choose to have someone else direct it or rewrite it. But, as far as I know, it's dead.
DETAILS: You were once considered for Return of the Jedi. Now that there's a new film in the works, would something like that interest you?
DAVID CRONENBERG: No. It didn't even interest me then, so it certainly wouldn't interest me now. I haven't even seen the last three movies.
DETAILS: You've dabbled in directing TV in the past. Any interest in doing more?
DAVID CRONENBERG: I've tried many times and it always flounders. Very recently there was a project that I was involved with called Knifeman. It was developed by Rolin Jones who developed Weeds and Friday Night Lights, a very experienced and talented guy. He couldn't get it done either. TV is definitely of interest to me, but despite the fact that there's some good stuff being done, somehow my sensibility and the sensibility of the powers that be don't correspond.
DETAILS: Maps to the Stars is supposed to start shooting in May. Have you been able to sign Robert Pattinson, Viggo Mortensen, and Rachel Weisz?
DAVID CRONENBERG: I don't think Viggo will be able to do it, but with the other two, so far, so good. Have they signed? No. But they have a verbal commitment if everything works out and if other things don't come along. It's still very possible for the three of them, but it's far from certain. That's life in the indie film world.
David Cronenberg's Cosmopolis is available now on Blu-ray and DVD.
David Cronenberg: „Robert Pattinson ist ein fantastischer Schauspieler“ "Extrem erfinderisch"
Robert Pattinson & David Cronenberg | PR Photos
Pünktlich zum DVD-Start von “Cosmopolis“ tauchen immer mehr Interviews mit Regisseur David Cronenberg auf. Im neuesten Interview mit ‚Indiewire‘ setzte er seine Taktik fort, sich seinen Hauptdarsteller Robert Pattinson warm zu halten.
“Ich finde wirklich, dass er ein fantastischer Schauspieler ist“, so Cronenberg. „Er ist extrem erfinderisch. Er überraschte mich an jedem Tag von ‚Cosmopolis‘ mit den Feinheiten und Dingen, die er machte, die unerwartet kamen.“
Trotzdem er natürlich mit den Dialogen vertraut war, wäre Pattinson immer wieder für eine Überraschung gut gewesen. „Und ich dachte mir, dass ist ein Typ, mit dem ich gerne mehr arbeiten würde.“
Dieses Gefühl hätte er auch bei Viggo Mortensen gehabt. „Wenn du einen Schauspieler findest, der dich jeden Tag überrascht, kapierst du, er könnte noch mehr davon in einer komplett anderen Rolle, in einem komplett anderen Film tun.“
Von diesen Schwärmereien wird es in Zukunft noch jede Menge geben. Bald spielt Robert Pattinson (der “Ferrari“ unter den Schauspielern) in “Maps To The Stars“ mit – einem weiteren Film von Cronenberg. „Ich habe noch nie in den Staaten gedreht. Das wird das erste Mal. Und ich freue mich wirklich darauf“, erklärte der Regisseur.
Robert Pattinson von David Cronenberg mit Lob überschüttet
Dass sich Regisseure über ihre Darsteller positiv äußern, ist keine Seltenheit, wenngleich es nicht immer so überschwänglich geschieht wie im Falle von David Cronenberg und Robert Pattinson. Regisseur David Cronenberg hat mit Robert Pattinson bereits einen gemeinsamen Film gedreht, nämlich Cosmopolis, in Kürze soll ein zweiter Film (Maps to the Stars) mit Pattinson gedreht werden.
Wie Cronenberg im Vorfeld der Dreharbeiten hat verlauten lassen, ist Robert Pattinson ein grandios guter Schauspieler, der sich in jeder Rolle perfekt auszudrücken weiß, weshalb Cronenberg sehr gerne noch einige weitere Filme mit dem Twilight-Star drehen würde. Parallelen sieht Cronenberg dabei zwischen Pattinson und Viggo Mortensen, der ebenfalls ein unglaubliches Talent als Schauspieler haben soll.
Besonders der Facettenreichtum von Robert Pattinson und Viggo Mortensen soll David Cronenberg dabei imponiert haben. Aufgrund der Lobgesänge auf den Hollywood-Star ist es nicht auszuschließen, dass nach “Maps to the Stars” noch weitere Filme unter der Regie von Cronenberg gedreht werden, in denen auch Robert Pattinson zu sehen ist.
