Rob Pattinson Ranks #4 in Forbes' 'Best Actors for a Buck' 2012 List

Forbes has released its list of Best Actors for a Buck, and Rob made the list at #4

Ranking second on our list is Kristen Stewart. For every dollar she gets paid Stewart returns an average $40.60.  Her two co-stars, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner, also make our list. Pattinson ranks 4th with a $31.70 return for every dollar he is paid. Lautner ranks 6th with a $29.50 return. All three of the actors were paid the same for the final Twilight movies. The differences in their return numbers comes from their other projects. This year Stewart had 'Snow White and the Huntsman' which turned a nice profit, grossing $400 million on an estimated budget of $170 million. Pattinson’s other movies this year, 'Bel Ami' and 'Cosmopolis', weren’t released in enough theaters to count for this list. The only other film we looking at for Pattinson was 'Water for Elephants' which grossed $118 million at the global box office on a $38 million budget.

Rob Wins E! Celeb of The Year

Rob Pattinson wins E! Celeb of the Year poll for the third time in a row!


For his hat trick, R.Pattz can thank his legions of dedicated fans, who endlessly voted to get him to the top spot with the fervor of, well, a Twi-hard. Take a look back at the top 10 biggest stories of 2012

Let us count the ways: Well, there were the movies. He got down and dirty in Bel Ami (though better we forget about that one). He wowed in Cosmopolis and dominated Cannes with its debut. And then there was a little picture called The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2. You may have caught it?

...

And the hair? Perfect as ever. But Twilight is over now so there's no chance Rob could win again next year, right? He's got a handful of films in the pipeline: The Rover (an Australian western), Queen of the Desert (where he'll play Laurence of Arabia) and Maps to the Stars (which will reunite him with director David Cronenberg). Just to name a few.

Cosmopolis Makes TotalFilm's '50 Best Movies of 2012' List

#37: Cosmopolis

The Movie: The second of two David Cronenberg films released in the UK this year was a return to his weird roots, as Robert Pattinson is driven across riot-stricken Manhattan so he can have a haircut. The sex, death and horrendous hand injuries were classic Cronenberg, but most people noticed only the endless talk, talk, talk...

Impact: Mass walkouts from disgruntled R-Pattz fans who didn't want to see their hero having his prostrate examined. And, alongside Holy Motors, a sudden surge in 'guy in a limousine' movies.

Read their review of Cosmopolis HERE.

Yahoo! Movies Interview

Robert Pattinson was so overzealous in the early days of production on the "Twilight" series that, he says, "I almost got fired." The 26-year-old star, who can laugh about the situation now, told Yahoo! Movies on Thursday that while working on the first film he took his method acting to such a "serious" level that "I was fighting with everybody in control all the time… to the point where I almost got fired." When asked what he would tell himself when he was first cast in the series -- if he had the ability -- Pattinson expressed he has no regrets -- except for the level of intensity he brought to his co-workers early on as he was playing an angst-ridden teenage vampire. "I was so determined to make it so serious," he recalls of that initial Twilight film. Indeed, Pattinson is also known to have butted heads with series creator Stephenie Meyer early on over character motivation. During the interview on Thursday, he indicated the onscreen payoff was worth it: "I like the first one having been so wrought."  

Bent on being intense when he first got the part of vampire Edward Cullen, Pattinson moved to Oregon (one of the filming locations of the movie) and is said to have taken method acting to new heights for a teen movie -- isolating himself from the rest of the cast to get deeper into character. (He isolated himself from his family and friends too.) Pattinson also trained five hours a day learning how to do fight scenes and play baseball -- a favorite Cullen sport. 

The prospect of getting fired may have seemed real to Pattinson because he got the axe on an acting gig just a few years prior. He was fired from a London play in 2005. Pattinson has since said in interviews that the experience was a good thing -- that he was let go because he was "trying to take risks." Another reason Pattinson may have been sensitive on the set of the first "Twilight" is because he wasn't originally intended for the role of Edward. Henry Cavill -- who is starring as Superman in 2013's "Man of Steel" -- was "Twilight" creator Stephenie Meyer's first choice for the role. But by the time filming began, Cavill was 25-years-old and much too mature looking to play a 17-year-old-looking vampire.

Rob Interview with Sydney Morning Herald

He's been Edward Cullen ever since he was Harry Potter's Cedric Diggory, but for Robert Pattinson, the actor who plays the glittery vampire hero of the Twilight movie franchise, it's been a steep learning curve.

“When you first sign on to something when you were nobody, you feel like everything's totally out of control,” he said in Sydney today. “Once you've experienced it once, you realise how to have a little bit more control over it.”
