Twilight star Robert Pattinson's list of up-coming films is growing rather consistently, and his fans certainly couldn't be happier about that.
On his plate of to-be released films are The Twilight Saga: New Moon (with Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner), Remember Me (with Emilie de Ravin and Pierce Brosnan), The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, Unbound Captives (with Rachel Weisz and Hugh Jackman), and Bel Ami.
In New Moon and Eclipse, Pattinson will reprise his role as Twilight's Edward Cullen. Obviously, Twilight series fans are thrilled about this fact.
His presence in the two films, though, will probably be quite different.
In New Moon, since Edward is a flittering image for most of the story, his few non-apparitional scenes are all we have. In those, we see a darker side of Edward, really, as he leaves Bella and then nearly ends his life (or, rather, existence) in the end.
In Eclipse, too, a darker side of Edward is presented. While the majority of Pattinson's performance in Eclipse will be tame, there will be a fight scene with Rachelle Lefevre as well as a rather disturbing sequence of keeping Bella (Kristen Stewart) away from Jacob (Taylor Lautner).
His part in Remember Me is one which many look forward to, as it is a role that Pattinson has stated he identified with based on the script. Not to mention, photographs from the set have certainly raised the interest level of everyone for this film.
In Bel Ami, Pattinson will portray a slightly less romantic role than most.
Finally, while the details for Unbound Captives aren't altogether clear yet, many are excited to see what a Robert Pattinson and Hugh Jackman team would turn out like.
So, I ask you. Of all the known roles that Pattinson will be playing in the near future, which are you most excited about and why? Comment below and let us know!

Robert Pattinson is a rising star in the indie film industry

Too often do actors’ personal lives outshine their craft and become the focus of the nation’s attention. Take Brad Pitt for instance. His truly diverse body of work is second to his relationship with Angelina Jolie and continuing drama with Jennifer Ainston. This has become true in the case of Robert Pattinson, the beautiful British 23 year old star of Twilight and the newly released Little Ashes, now playing at the Plano Angelika. His relationship with Kristen Stewart is front page news, not his recently brave endeavor into the venture of no-holding back cinema. He does not have much work experience but if his first two indie projects are any telling of what is to come, there is definitely something to look forward to with him.source
It has to be stated that Pattinson undoubtedly makes a perfect Edward Cullen. He plays the tortured soul with a seriousness that the devoted fans crave. His benign escapades endear him further to his admirers. Numerous stories surface about his compassion and patience towards the thousands of screaming girls he has run across in the past months. He is gregarious, warm, intelligent, down-to-earth and genuine in all of his interviews. But he can be more than a teen idol and transcend the boy of the moment craze.
He shined as awkward Art in How To Be, an honestly funny film about learning self-dependency while pursuing passions of the heart. His hair alone can cause a chuckle or two. Pattinson’s character Art is going through what he calls a “quarter-life crisis”. After his girlfriend dumps him for being morose all the time, he moves back in with his unresponsive and indifferent parents. He tries to volunteer at a local recreational center but is fired and his career at the supermarket leaves him feeling unsatisfied. Art just wants to compose music with his docile friends, belting on songs like “Choking on the Dust”. His unsupportive mother constantly tells him that she “wonders” about his life and he feels more alienated and sad. Art’s desire to improve himself leads him to the book “It’s Not Your Fault” by a self-help guru. In attempt to find inner-peace, he pays the author five thousand pounds to be his life coach and help him be more normal. Dr. Ellington, his new teacher, tells him stereotypical motivational treatise, like to achieve a state of “coffin” (conciliatory objective future focus introspective nurture). Throughout the film, they work together in attempt to reconcile the cold upbringing he had. This gem of a film, which can be seen on IFC’s On Demand Channel on Time Warner, is quirky and entertaining.
Pattison’s latest experiment with independent film, Little Ashes, is an unrelenting, faithful examination of the relationship between the poet Frederico Garcia Lorca and Salvador Dali. The story follows from when he was an 18 year old student in pursuit of what he referred to as the construction of his own genius to his expulsion from the surrealist movement. Although the timeframe presented could be hard to follow for anyone unfamiliar with the history of Spain, the film is an excellent piece of work for the most part. It spares no details, goes for the punch in the gut, the heart paroxysm, and the bewildered face all at the same time. The acting from both Javier Beltran (Lorca) and Pattinson (Dali) is solid and passionate. Their love scenes were virginally awkward yet powerful, an accurate depiction of a young love. Pattinson threw himself into the eccentric persona that Salvador Dali was, allowing himself to be immersed in all of his wild habits. He captured almost everything about Dali, including those captivating and untamed eyes.
Obviously not scared of a challenge, Pattinson shows a lot of promise. Despite the overwhelming success of Twilight, he remains more low-key then some reality television stars. If Pattinson continues to balance his body of work between mainstream and independent projects, he will build the respect he is entitled to and produce some truly great works.

Twilight star Robert Pattinson certainly has career options
Sad as that day will be, once The Twilight Saga: New Moon, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, and (crossed fingers) The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn are completed, Little Ashes and How to Be star Robert Pattinson has a lot of options.
Though he is “rumored” for a part in the up-coming film (another love story) Memoirs, no official confirmation as to his involvement with the project is yet available. Beyond Memoirs, and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, Robert Pattinson’s future in films is as yet unknown (unless Breaking Dawn, like he said, will be made).
What we do know is that he has been busy filming The Twilight Saga: New Moon in Vancouver, and that’s not all. Sam Bradley, close friend to Rob (and amazing musician responsible for co-authoring “Never Think (Too Far Gone)” from the Twilight soundtrack – see here for more on Sam Bradley) told me that he and Rob have been spending a lot of time together – writing a new song. We also know that Rob has been playing with the idea of working on an Indie album, according to reports. What we don’t know is what the film world holds for Pattinson’s future.
Some have suggested that Rob would be great for the part of James Bond once Daniel Craig has done all he has wanted to. Tall, dark, mysterious, and (let’s just say it) British, some fans can’t imagine a more perfect next James Bond. Others disagree, saying that Rob’s admitted difficulty with stunt-work (as evidenced by his injury on the set of Twilight in attempting to do his own stunts in the James-Edward fight scene) would put him in harm’s way for a Bond film.
Others hope that Rob goes back to his roots, taking a role akin to fan-favorite Daniel Gale in The Bad Mother’s Handbook. Still others suggest that Rob may be well suited for a parody-type satirical film, within which his famous chuckle and boyish grin might gain yield over his swoon-stirring grimace.
And then there are also those that hope to see Rob get back to where it all began – his music. These people hope that Rob will pick up the guitar, lay his hands on those ivory keys, and open his cunning mouth to release the sounds they yearn to hear. These fans, and all for that matter, are lucky – in just a few short weeks, Rob’s musical gifts will be on wide display on three tracks of the How to Be soundtrack.
At present, Rob sits at a comfortable second place on the IMDb Starmeter (overtaken recently by Harold & Kumar’s Kal Penn), with Kristen Stewart at his near-next (third on the chart), as he reprises his role as Edward Cullen in what appears to be many Twilight fans’ favorite installment (or to others, least favorite) of the series – New Moon.
Be it action-packed James Bond, comedic relief, musician, or just (far from plain) Rob, one thing is for certain… he certainly has options.
