Producer Liz Watts is calling David Michod’s new film The Rover “a dirty and dangerous near-future western set in the Australian desert”.

She confirmed what the Internet is buzzing about: that Guy Pearce and Twilight heartthrob Robert Pattinson are in discussions to play, respectively, a man in pursuit of the people who stole his car and the brother of one of the thieves in Michod’s follow-up to Animal Kingdom.

Reluctantly, Watts also added a few more details: it is hoped that The Rover will go into production late in the year and discussions about the project started 18 months ago between Michod and US producer David Linde.

Last year Linde opened the production and financing outfit Lava Bear Films with backing from Reliance Entertainment. At the time the company announced it had a first-look deal with Universal Pictures for the US and other significant international territories. Linde was, at one time, co-chair of Universal.

Who knew an autographed menu by Robert Pattinson could reveal SO much about his future! Rob’s written words definitely reveal that he wants kids one day, but is on the brink of something big with his career that will affect his relationship! Read on for ALL the details!

Robert Pattinson is headed towards some serious life changes — regarding his love life and career, according to his hand-writing.

“This is the hand-writing of someone who is very scattered right now. But he is scattered with excitement. His ego is big right now. He is feeling positive and energetic,” says Linda Lauren, a fourth generation psychic medium, who also does psychic profiling based on a person’s hand-writing.

“It looks as though there will be some sort of an agreement that makes him closer to coming to a commitment stage in his relationship where you have to make a decision. I’m not seeing them [Rob & Kristen Stewart] married. Right now, his writing says everything is about his career at the moment, but he wants kids. The little curly ‘q’ at end of his signature says he looks forward to multiplying himself,” Linda tells HollywoodLife.com exclusively.

Oh la la! We would love to see little Robstens, but it will be some time before that actually happens, according to Linda.

“Right now everything will lead him to movie projects. There’s something very big for him coming. It will be a regular gig. So the relationship will be tested as a result, but not in a bad way,” Linda says.

Well, we definitely can’t wait to see what’s in store for Rob! And we know whatever it is — his relationship with K-Stew will stay strong.

What do you think?

Patrons at The Majestic got a pleasant surprise Saturday night when film star Robert Pattinson, most famous for his role playing a forever-young teenage vampire Edward in the “Twilight” films, strolled in for dinner with friends while in town for the White House Correspondents Dinner.

The Majestic is a cozy upscale diner on King Street in historic Alexandria, a suburb of Washington, D.C., in Virginia that specializes in comfort food.

Pattinson, 25, a London native, mingled easily with the crowd at the bar while waiting for a table, according to Jennie Kuperstein, publicist for The Eat Good Food Group.

Pattinson dined with four friends, ordering a steak—medium rare—prepared by Majestic Chef Shannon Overmiller and autographing a menu for Eve Armstrong, Chef Cathal Armstrong’s 13-year-old daughter. The steak on the menu is described as “All Natural Virginia New York Strip Steak” which comes with fries and sells for $27.

Dutch site Moviescene.nl gave a top 10 of most sexy actors. ‘Just’ number 9, but a very positive view on Rob and his career:

Translation by ThinkingOfRob:

You have to be living under a rock if you don’t know who this is. With his role as Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire he earned the title of British Star of Tomorrow. His breakthrough came as Edward Cullen in the Twilight series. He took many teenage hearts by storm. This part also opened many doors for him. Pattinson has taken every opportunity to build a life after Twilight. With roles in Little Ashes, Remember Me and Water for the Elephants, he has already shown that he is a versatile actor. With two films, Bel Ami and Cosmopolis, coming up there is still much more greatness to come.

KNIGHTLEY: I think you could function anywhere. But I think when you get to the big ones, it becomes much more difficult to make it such a personal experience. I enjoy making films like A Dangerous Method more because you get so close with the people you’re working with. You rely on everybody on a very personal level, as a team. Bigger films are more difficult because the number of people is so huge. But the thing about working with you is that there’s always a definitive answer—they’re very much your films and you make the decisions. I find it quite difficult on studio films because there are so many different executives and things like that that you have to go through, so very often getting that definitive opinion is actually quite difficult. I always find it much easier when there’s one person whose vision you’re following, as opposed to many people.

CRONENBERG: Well, a benign dictatorship, I think, is what it’s supposed to be on a film set. But Rob Pattinson, who stars in the film I just shot, Cosmopolis, was commenting on that, too. He was saying that because he’s done these Twilight movies, he was sort of astonished that I could just make a decision right there on the set and that was it. But for me, that’s business as usual, of course.

According to Allociné, Cosmopolis’ running time is 1h 48min.

Allociné is the site that released the Cosmopolis teaser and so far all info posted there is correct.

I have a weird relationship with fame. It’s hard to live sometimes but I don’t want to complain. People are nice with me and I think it comes with the way you handle things.

For example, I think it’s totally different from what Rob (Pattinson) lives. He’s a guy I like a lot – and no I do not have his cell phone number, I say this because it’s always the first thing people ask me. He’s a sex symbol. He’s sexy and just need to do his brooding look for girls to fall. He has the perfect height to seduce girls, I’m the total opposite (laughs). He might be charming and cute, wild and sexy .. I do not have this kind of status, just look at pictures in the press. When we’re put side by side, I look a little silly or I make faces whereas Rob always looks like a ladies’ man. Therefore it doesn’t help me when it comes to the ladies. Maybe because now that they grew up with me they consider me more like a big brother than a potential boyfriend.
