Robert Pattinson - Bio


Robert Pattinson wasn't a household name... until he starred in Twilight.

Now, the British actor is well on his way to the A-list.

Pattinson appeared in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (in a flashback) in the role of Cedric, but it was his casting as vampire Edward Cullen that truly established the actor in Hollywood. He will star in the next three movies in the Twilight franchise: New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn.

In his free time, Robert plays the guitar and piano. He has two sisters and was named Rolling Stone Magazine's Hottest Actor of 2008.

Music

Pattinson plays guitar and piano, and composes his own music. He also appears as the singer of two songs on the Twilight soundtrack: "Never Think", which he co-wrote with Sam Bradley, and "Let Me Sign", which was written by Marcus Foster and Bobby Long. The songs were included in the film after director Catherine Hardwicke added Pattinson's recordings into an early cut without his knowledge, and he agreed that "one of them specifically, it really made the scene better. It was like it was supposed to be there." The soundtrack for the film How To Be features three original songs performed by Pattinson and written by composer Joe Hastings.

Aside from recording for the soundtracks, Pattinson has said, "I've never really recorded anything - I just played in pubs and stuff", and when asked about a professional music career, he said, "Music is my back-up plan if acting fails." In 2008, he also performed with his first girlfriend's current boyfriend's band, called Bad Girls.
