  • Robert Pattinson is a British actor whose films have earned more than $4.7 billion worldwide. A teacher once advised him to stay out of his school drama club. He was born in London on the 13th of May 1986 and later ranked among the world's highest-paid actors. He never planned to act. He thought about a career in music, or about studying speechwriting at university. How does a boy like that end up playing a vampire, then a bank robber, and then Batman? And what draws some of the most distinctive directors in cinema to an actor who was once known mainly as a heartthrob?

  • In the London district of Barnes, Pattinson grew up between a father named Richard, who ran a business importing vehicles from the United States, and a mother named Clare, who worked at a modelling agency. He had two older sisters, Victoria and Elizabeth. They liked to dress him up as a girl and even gave the character a name, Claudia.

    At the age of four he started at Tower House Boys' Preparatory School, and he also began to play piano and guitar. By six he was already taking part in amateur performances. His first role came in Spell for a Rhyme, a play written by one of his teachers. Later the school staged an adaptation of William Golding's 1954 novel Lord of the Flies, and he appeared in that too.

    Doctor Who, Sharky and George, and Hammerman were among his favourite television shows, alongside football and video games. He was a disorganised child who resisted homework. At twelve he was expelled from Tower House for shoplifting. His parents moved him to the Harrodian School on Lonsdale Road, close to the family home, where English became his favourite subject.

    The Barnes Theatre Company, a local amateur group, took him in at thirteen, after his father suggested it as a way to overcome his shyness. He began by working backstage. His first audition, for Guys and Dolls, won him a part as a Cuban dancer with no lines. In the next production, Our Town, he took the lead role of George Gibbs. A talent agent in the audience noticed him, and Pattinson started to look for professional work. He went on to appear in Macbeth, Anything Goes and Tess of the d'Urbervilles.

    Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire ended his plans for university, because filming clashed with his schedule. Around then he shared a flat in Soho with his childhood friend and fellow actor Tom Sturridge.

  • Reese Witherspoon's on-screen son was Pattinson's first film role, in Mira Nair's 2004 costume drama Vanity Fair, adapted from a novel by William Makepeace Thackeray. His scenes were cut from the final film and survive only on the DVD version. He later reflected on the odd start, saying "I'd done one amateur play and you end up doing a film with Reese Witherspoon".

    Dark Kingdom: The Dragon King, a television film directed by Uli Edel, followed later that year, with Max Von Sydow and Julian Sands in the cast. The story follows Siegfried, played by Benno Furmann, a young blacksmith who slays a dragon and falls in love with Queen Brunhild, played by Kristanna Loken. Pattinson played Giselher, the younger brother of King Gunther and Princess Kriemhild, who looks up to Siegfried as a demigod.

    Mike Newell directed Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire in 2005 and cast Pattinson as Cedric Diggory, the Hogwarts champion. Newell described him as "quintessentially English with chiselled public schoolboy good looks". For the part, Pattinson learned to scuba dive. The Times named him its 2005 British Star of Tomorrow, and some even called him the next Jude Law. The film grossed nearly $897 million worldwide, the highest total of any film that year.

    On the 31st of October 2006, BBC Four aired The Haunted Airman, a psychological thriller by Chris Durlacher. Pattinson played a World War II pilot who is shot, left paralysed and suffers severe shell shock before sinking into madness. He called it his "best acting experience". The Stage praised his portrayal of "the airman of the title with a perfect combination of youthful terror and world-weary cynicism".

    In 2007 he played Daniel, a shy young man who develops feelings for a struggling girl, in The Bad Mother's Handbook, a one-off drama adapted from a novel by Kate Long. It was the last television role in his filmography.

  • In 2008 the director Oliver Irving gave Pattinson his first leading role, as Art in How to Be. Art is dumped by his girlfriend, moves back in with his parents and convinces a Canadian self-help guru to relocate to London. Irving remembered the audition, saying Pattinson walked in, "forgot his lines and just started improvising, which was exactly what I wanted". Pattinson said he loved the script.

    Little Ashes, also from 2008, cast him as Salvador Dalí. He had first been considered for Federico García Lorca, Dalí's lover, but that part went to Javier Beltrán. Reviews were mostly negative.

    Roughly three thousand men sent in resumes for the role of Edward Cullen in Twilight, the 2008 adaptation of Stephenie Meyer's 2005 novel, and many of them auditioned. Director Catherine Hardwicke said Pattinson had everything the film needed, including "that angular face and kind of mysterious Edward aura". Kristen Stewart played Bella, and Pattinson said his performance was largely shaped by hers. He adopted an American accent and wore contact lenses. In the story, a vampire named James is determined to kill Bella, and Cullen, her vampire lover, is pulled into a fight with him. Reviews were mixed, but critics widely praised the chemistry between the two leads. Manohla Dargis of The New York Times called him "capable and exotically beautiful", and Roger Ebert thought he was "well-chosen".

    In February 2009 Pattinson presented at the 81st Academy Awards. He had been set to appear alongside Stewart, who declined. That year he also played Richard in the short film The Summer House, and Revolver Entertainment released Robsessed, a documentary about his rise to fame.

    The Twilight Saga: New Moon arrived in November 2009 and took a record $142.8 million in its opening weekend. It finished with $711 million worldwide, the seventh-highest total of 2009. Bill Goodykoontz of The Arizona Republic wrote that Pattinson "does his best when he's around", even though he is not in the film much. At the 2010 ceremony the film earned Pattinson three MTV Movie Awards.

    In 2010 Pattinson played Tyler Hawkins in Remember Me, directed by Allen Coulter, and also served as an executive producer. Critics were mixed on his work. The Twilight Saga: Eclipse followed that year and made over $698.4 million, the sixth-highest total of 2010. In 2011 he played Jacob Jankowski in Water for Elephants, based on Sara Gruen's 2006 novel, and reunited with Witherspoon. Richard Corliss of Time described his performance as "star quality". The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 took $712 million, the fourth-highest total of 2011, though reviews were mixed to negative. In 2012 he played Georges Duroy in a film of the 1885 novel Bel-Ami.

    The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 in 2012 was the last time he played Cullen. It earned over $829 million, the best result of the series and the sixth-highest of its year. Across five films released yearly between 2008 and 2012, the saga grossed more than $3.3 billion.

  • Cosmopolis, David Cronenberg's film of a novel, competed for the Palme d'Or at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival, and Pattinson's performance as Eric Packer earned particular acclaim. Robbie Collin of The Daily Telegraph called it a "sensational performance" and said Packer was played "like a human caldera". Owen Gleiberman of Entertainment Weekly called Pattinson "pale and predatory even without his pasty-white vampire makeup".

    In May 2014 two of his films debuted at the Cannes Film Festival. In David Michôd's futuristic western The Rover, he played Reynolds, a young, naive American abandoned by his brother after a failed robbery. The story is set in the Australian Outback a decade after an economic collapse, and Pattinson spent seven weeks filming there with Guy Pearce and Scoot McNairy. Scott Foundas of Variety praised a performance that reshaped his career, along with his convincing Southern accent and "understated dignity". Pattinson then reunited with Cronenberg for Maps to the Stars, playing Jerome Fontana, a struggling limousine driver who hopes to become a screenwriter. Cronenberg called the casting an "easy decision to make" and praised the actor as "extremely inventive".

    Werner Herzog's Queen of the Desert in 2015 cast him as T. E. Lawrence, known as Lawrence of Arabia, opposite Nicole Kidman and James Franco. Geoffrey Macnab of The Independent found his take "comic and a very long way removed from Peter O'Toole". In Anton Corbijn's Life he played Dennis Stock, a photographer who befriends the actor James Dean. David Rooney of The Hollywood Reporter thought it was arguably the most fully rounded performance in the film. Late that year Pattinson took dual roles in The Childhood of a Leader, the directorial debut of Brady Corbet.

    Pattinson had been cast as Corporal Henry Costin in The Lost City of Z back in November 2013. The film, directed by James Gray, premiered at the New York Film Festival in August 2016. It follows the surveyor Percy Fawcett, who disappears in the Amazon rainforest in the 1920s while searching for a mythical city. Pattinson grew a thick beard and lost nearly 35 pounds. The film was a box-office bomb, but The Guardian found him "considerably more interesting to watch" than "the dashing but dull Fawcett".

    Good Time, from the Safdie brothers, premiered in competition at Cannes in 2017. Pattinson played Connie Nikas, a bank robber moving through the criminal underworld of Queens, New York. Guy Lodge of Variety called it a "career peak", and David Rooney compared it to Al Pacino's Sonny Wortzik in Dog Day Afternoon (1975). It brought Pattinson his first Independent Spirit Award nomination for Best Male Lead. While promoting the film, he wrote and starred in Fear & Shame, a short for GQ. In it he plays himself on the streets of New York, trying to buy a hot dog while dodging the media and fans.

    In 2018 the Zellner Brothers' western-comedy Damsel gave him his first comedy since How to Be. He played Samuel Alabaster, an eccentric cowboy riding west to find his kidnapped fiancée. That same year Claire Denis made High Life, a space drama about criminals sent toward a black hole. Denis first considered Philip Seymour Hoffman for the lead, then chose Pattinson after seeing his dedication and enthusiasm. He played Monte, a reluctant father raising his daughter alone aboard the ship.

    Robert Eggers's black-and-white horror The Lighthouse, set on a remote New England island in the 1890s, premiered in the Directors' Fortnight at Cannes in 2019. The Guardian's Peter Bradshaw called Pattinson's work "mesmeric", and it earned him a second Independent Spirit nomination for Best Male Lead. Two more films followed at the 2019 Venice Film Festival. In The King, his second film with Michôd, he played Louis, The Dauphin, the nemesis of Henry V, and modelled a French accent on people in the French fashion industry. Reaction to the accent was mixed, but critics largely praised him. In Waiting for the Barbarians, adapted from J. M. Coetzee's 1980 novel, he drew a cooler response, with Harry Windsor of The Guardian calling him "stiff". His next role would be on a far larger scale, in a Christopher Nolan thriller.

  • In Christopher Nolan's Tenet in 2020, Pattinson played Neil, a spy handler, opposite John David Washington. He based Neil's mannerisms on those of the author Christopher Hitchens. Jessica Kiang of The New York Times called him "delightful". The same year, in The Devil All the Time, he played Preston Teagardin, a lewd small-town preacher in a 1950s story based on Donald Ray Pollock's novel.

    In May 2021 he signed a first-look deal with Warner Bros and HBO to produce and develop projects.

    Matt Reeves's 2022 film The Batman gave him the cape and the secret identity of Bruce Wayne. After Ben Affleck left the role, Reeves wrote the character with Pattinson in mind, because he had been impressed by Good Time. The casting first faced backlash from some Batman fans. The film became a critical and commercial success, and David Rooney of The Hollywood Reporter found him "riveting throughout".

    In 2023 Pattinson voiced the grey heron in the English-language dub of Hayao Miyazaki's The Boy and the Heron. Through his production company Icki Eneo Arlo, he also produced Sebastián Silva's Rotting in the Sun, which was critically successful.

    Bong Joon-ho's Mickey 17 arrived in 2025, adapted from the novel Mickey7 (2022). Pattinson played Mickey Barnes, a disposable crew member sent on perilous tasks, who can be regenerated after death with most of his memories intact. Reviews focused on his work as two versions of the same man. David Ehrlich of Indiewire wrote that he gave "two of the best performances of his life here". Die My Love, with Jennifer Lawrence in 2025, went less well. Owen Gleiberman called his turn as her husband a "rare bad performance", while Radhika Seth of Vogue thought both leads were let down by a poor script.

    Kristoffer Borgli's The Drama, a romantic black comedy with Zendaya, released in 2026 to positive reviews. That year he is also set to reunite with Nolan in The Odyssey as Antinous and to play the antagonist Scytale in Denis Villeneuve's Dune: Part Three. He is cast in Fernando Meirelles's heist film Here Comes the Flood. He is producing and starring as the television journalist Chris Hansen in Lance Oppenheim's feature debut, Primetime. The Batman: Part II, with Pattinson returning as the hero, is slated for release in 2027.

  • In 2025 David Fear of Rolling Stone called Pattinson the 21st century's "great movie weirdo" and one of its most interesting A-list actors. Director Matt Reeves likened him to a chameleon who "never plays a character with exactly his voice" and treats the voice as one of his ways in. Wendy Ide of The Guardian saw an eccentric screen presence that set him apart from his "groomed and polished" contemporaries. Jordan Woods of Screen Rant noted that Twilight had left him somewhat typecast, until The Batman showed his "real acting chops".

    Alex Moshakis of The Guardian notes that Pattinson usually plays complex, oddball characters. He enjoys roles that are the opposite of his own personality, which he calls completely normal and low-key. He says he finds it fascinating "when people make bad decisions". Rather than staying in character all day, he saves his energy for when the camera rolls. He describes his approach as "sprinting up to a cliff and just jumping off it". Sometimes, he admits, it fails and "you just look like a lunatic", but at other times it "stops your thinking, which is my favourite place to be".

    Throwing up on set, arriving intoxicated and isolating himself in a basement are among the methods he has used to find a character. During The Drama, he says, he went "crazy for three days". He can only have ideas when he feels an "enormous amount" of adrenaline. He also reads and watches constantly, believing it sharpens his taste. On set he tries to do whatever he can to not know what is going on, so that everything feels real.

    Jean-Paul Belmondo is, in Pattinson's words, "the coolest actor who ever lived", and Pierrot le Fou (1972) is one of his favourite films. For The Batman he drew on Al Pacino in The Godfather (1972) and on Kurt Cobain. For Mickey 17 he cited Steve-O and Johnny Knoxville from Jackass: The Movie (2002). He says directors including Cronenberg, Denis, Eggers and the Safdie brothers shaped the way he acts. Steve Rose of The Guardian credits his choice of "interesting, uncommercial roles" for placing him in some of the best films of the 2010s.

    In 2008 and 2009 People included Pattinson on its "Sexiest Men Alive" list. In 2009 Glamour UK named him the "Sexiest Man Alive", and Vanity Fair called him "the most handsome man in the world". GQ and Glamour both named him the "Best Dressed Man" of 2010. He dislikes the nickname "RPattz" and has jokingly threatened to "strangle" whoever invented it. In 2010 Time named him one of the 100 most influential people in the world, and Forbes put him on its Celebrity 100. That year he also won two BBC Radio 1 Teen Awards.

    Earnings drew as much attention as looks. Vanity Fair put his 2009 earnings at an estimated $18 million, and The Sunday Times Rich List estimated his 2010 net worth at £13 million. In 2011 Vanity Fair ranked him fifteenth on its Hollywood Top 40, citing $27.5 million from 2010. By 2013 Glamour placed him second on its list of the richest UK celebrities under 30, with a fortune of £45 million. In 2014 Forbes found him to be the thirteenth-highest-paid actor of the year, with earnings of $20 million.

  • Under the stage name Bobby Dupea, Pattinson sang original songs at open mic nights in London pubs in his late teens, either solo or with his band, Bad Girls. He lent his voice to two songs on the Twilight soundtrack. One was "Never Think", co-written with Sam Bradley, and the other was "Let Me Sign", by Marcus Foster and Bobby Long. Hardwicke had put his recordings into an early cut without telling him, and he later agreed that one of them made the scene better. He also performed three songs by Joe Hastings for How to Be. Asked about a music career, he said "music is my back-up plan if acting fails". In 2010 the National Association of Music Merchants named him Hollywood's Most Influential Top Unexpected Musician.

    In 2013 he played guitar on "Birds", a track on Death Grips' album Government Plates. Drummer Zach Hill recorded the jam on his phone and later sampled it. In February 2019 Pattinson teamed up with the Nottingham band Tindersticks on "Willow" for the High Life soundtrack. In October 2020 he appeared on Late Night with Seth Meyers during Haim's performance of "3 a.m.", reciting the song's spoken opening over a FaceTime call.

    At twelve he began to model, and he kept at it for about four years. In a December 2008 interview with Closer, he joked that he had the most unsuccessful modelling career, because he started out looking like a girl and then became "too much of a guy". He modelled for British teen magazines, the Hackett clothing line and the designer Nicole Farhi. In November 2010 he turned down a £1 million offer to be the face of Burberry.

    In June 2013 Pattinson was announced as the new face of Dior Homme fragrance. That September he appeared in a black-and-white short film with the model Camille Rowe. Campaigns since then have involved the directors Romain Gavras and the Blaze, and the photographers Peter Lindbergh, Nan Goldin and Mikael Jansson. Goldin published the book Robert Pattinson: 1000 Lives from the 2013 campaign. In February 2016 he became the first ambassador for Dior Homme menswear, photographed by Karl Lagerfeld and Lindbergh. In October 2025 he was announced as global ambassador for the French beer brand 1664, reuniting with Brady Corbet for the campaign.

    At the 2009 Cannes Film Festival amfAR event, Pattinson helped raise $56,000 for ECPAT UK's campaign against the sex trafficking of children. In January 2010 he took part in the Hope for Haiti Now telethon. For the GO Campaign he raised $80,000 by auctioning a Breaking Dawn set visit and then a private screening of Breaking Dawn - Part 1. In November 2013 he bought a cello made from recycled materials for $5,600 at the GO Campaign's Go Go Gala. In May 2014 he donated his bike to an auction for the Royal Flying Doctor Service, and that year he took the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. In 2015 he became the first ambassador for the GO Campaign. In May 2019 he co-hosted a Cannes charity event with Helen Mirren, and together they donated $500,000 to Help Refugees on behalf of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. While filming The Batman in Liverpool, he sent Batman gifts to a ten-year-old autistic fan who had waited on set, since a meeting was not possible.

    Pattinson is private and has often said he dislikes the paparazzi and tabloid journalism. In 2017 he said he had experienced anxiety since his early years in the spotlight. In January 2023 he described a two-week detox of mostly potatoes and Himalayan pink salt. He dated Kristen Stewart from 2009, and they split for good in May 2013. He was engaged to the singer FKA Twigs, and their break-up in October 2017 inspired her second album, Magdalene. Since 2018 he has been with the singer and actress Suki Waterhouse. They got engaged in December 2023 and had a daughter in March 2024.

    Wax statues of Pattinson went on display at Madame Tussauds in London and New York in 2010. On the 3rd of November 2011 he pressed his hand and foot prints into wet concrete at Grauman's Chinese Theatre with Stewart and Taylor Lautner. In 2014 the Russian astronomer Timur Kryachko named an asteroid he had discovered 246789 Pattinson.
