Robert Pattinson Flicks Selling Extremely Well at Cannes

200905211027.jpgDistributors across the world all want a piece of the Robert Pattinson pie, and the Summit films that he’s involved with have been doing brisk business at Cannes–

As Cannes 2009 approached its final days a clear picture emerged of the haves and have-nots, as streamlined teams of buyers focused in on broadly commercial fare with theatrical potential.

Summit International did a roaring trade on its Twilight sequel New Moon and the new Robert Pattinson title Remember Me, while Focus Features International virtually sold out on the upcoming Kevin Macdonald Roman Britain epic The Eagle Of The Ninth.

This is fantastic news, and bodes well for lots more down the road for Robert–as if we didn’t know already!

Check out the article at Screendaily.

  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    OME why wouldn't all these people want a piece of MY Rob? lol... everybody wants him! Aww I'm so proud of him and all his success.. I know that he will do great things... like another Johnny Depp (love him)!! I'm excited for him and will follow his career all the way baby!! He's just so adorable w/ that shy smile and his trade mark... awww!!
  • JTSTeamSwiss
    omg, i've been going CRAZY with not being able to access this site ALL DAY!

    wooo, now i'm finally on!!!

    EVERYONE wants him now! He's Summit's Golden Boy (errr, MAN!)! =)
    Even though it seems like he's getting a bit more comfortable with all the hype surrounding him, he's still the most humble and gracious guy that I've ever seen in a movie star...
  • kerbear585
    he is so more well composed than he used to be in the crowds. i think he is finally getting used to all the hype that surrounds him!
  • he is, i also hear he doesnt touch his hair when he's relaxed and not in front of huge crowds or reporters.
  • kerbear585
    yeah that is one of his nervous habits. but he looks great doing it so i don't care :) yeah kristen is the same way....she fidgets her legs and kicks them a bit when she is nervous and she plays with her rings she wears too. but that is ok. i am sure i would do something like that if i were in their shoes too.
  • Vampish
    Great work Rob, He looks a little shy with all the attention he's getting..hehe so cute..
  • FreakinCrazy
    I dont understand, what does that mean Summit traded off New Moon?
  • FreakinCrazy

  • FL95 (JoJo)
    Yeah I didn't get that either. Wonder what that means.

  • FL95 (JoJo)
    YUP! He's gonna be a Johnny Depp, Tom Hanks, Will Smith kinda guy... and even, dare I say Tom Cruise, pre-Scientology crazy outburst Tom anyway....
  • ItsRobert_Effing_Pattinson
    How dare you compare Pattinson to the likes of Tom "crazy eyes" Cruise?! I dont care if you said before crazy or not, he is still crazy!! What is wrong with you woman?!? lol

    *sigh* I have not had to slap you yet, you have been good up to this point so I am gonna let this one slide....LOL
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    I knew I'd get backlash for that one!
    I almost deleted it.... ALWAYS go with your GUT!
    Dang it.
  • ♥Love...Pattinson♥ (LTCB)
    It's ok.. all is forgiven...

    On a serious note... NONE of the men you mentioned could ever compete with Rob.. (Not even

    Brad Pitt... that's right!! I said it..)

    Who can resist that smile, his laugh, hair, accent, and body..

    Need I say more?
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    Hey now, I didn't mention Brad.... ;) He's too much a low down dirty dog for me. And I don't mean that literaly.

    I definitely concur, but Johnny D. is da bomb... in a league of his own, only to be out done by Mr. Pattinson himself.

    The smile gets me every time.

    HEY! Have a great weekend girls!!! Not sure if I'll be on or not, leaving first thing AM for Arizona! WILL MISS THIS BANTER!
  • ♥Love...Pattinson♥ (LTCB)
    Brad was one of mine.... but not no more.... Have fun in AZ...It's Hot!
  • ♥Love...Pattinson♥ (LTCB)
    LMAO!!!

    Effing you'll like this one...

    **lefting fists up in the air***

    Tom Cruise does not compare to ROB..
  • ItsRobert_Effing_Pattinson
