Cannes Rest

May 26, 2017 Blind Gossip

[Blind Gossip] This well-known actor came to fame in a film that he did many years ago. He is in Cannes. He is happy to talk about his new projects.

Everything has been going well. Until someone dared to ask him about his most famous role.

Uh oh.

He said something to the effect of, “Actually, I’m very excited to talk about [new film]!” but the reporter kept circling back to [old film]. [Actor] got really annoyed, put his hand over the mic, said, “Give it a rest, already!” and just walked off in the middle of the interview!

    Jake Gyllenhaal (film: Okja at Cannes)

    Famous Role or Film: Donnie Darko

    The director’s cut cover has him surrounded in blue/aqua like the blind’s picture.

    I’m not certain who to pick but I don’t think the actor was wrong here. In this case, the reporter was in the wrong. The actor, as everyone else, is there to promote whatever is out now, not what they did in the past. One question about it is enough. If they decline, you move on. This reporter apparently kept circling back to talking about that film and one role. It’s unprofessional of the reporter.

    Dan Radcliffe being asked about Harry Potter. The pic looks like the train station at the end. He is usually so lovely with reporters and recognizes that he will always be Harry, but sometimes too much is too much.

    Yes. Specially if I already asked him to stop asking about it. It’s disrespectful.

    Robert Pattinson being asked about the Twilight films while promoting Good Time. What kind of a jerk would ask about Twilight? I mean, who cares? Good Time looks incredible and he’s getting Best Actor buzz after its premiere. The reporter is an a-hole.

    Gotta be Rob Pattinson as Edward in the Twilight films, a role he has repeatedly said he’d like to forget about.

    This could be Robert Pattison; Twilight. Sparkles the Vampire.
    Hmmm. Probably be upset since I have a new movie to sell…

    Robert Pattinson being asked about Twilight. Yes, I’d be annoyed too. Good Time got a standing ovation and he’s slated to win big for his role. I’d be pissed if all anyone wanted to talk about was some stupid teen vampire movie I did years ago, they still hound him and KStew about their relationship. Get over it geez.

  15. Bakomommy says

    May 27, 2017 at 7:20 am

    Ron Pattinson, Twilight.
    I would be flattered to be a part of a movie that was still talked about but endless questions abour it would be frustrating.

  16. Theaterfan says

    May 27, 2017 at 6:17 am

    This is a wild guess but Jake Gyllenhaal? The famous movie being “Brokeback Mountain.”

  17. SugarCookie says

    Actor: Robert Pattinson

    Role: Edward Cullen of Twilight series

    Would you get annoyed if people constantly asked you something you did many years ago?
    Yes, especially if it was a superficial one like Twilight

  18. Brunettetalk says

    May 27, 2017 at 4:37 am

    No. Be happy that it got you fame in the first place. Why is rudeness now the norm? Sad!

    Jake Gyllenhaal

    Yes, I would get annoyed. It comes to a point when all questions have been answered and nothing else can be “discovered”. It’s gets old.

    Robert Pattinson
    Twilight franchise
    Twillight made him a household name but after five years and several other movies including his latest one, he has every right to refuse to talk about that franchise for the umpteenth time, especially when his latest film at Cannes is earning him early Oscar buzz.

    I would get annoyed if I had to keep answering questions about Twilight years later.

    • MLBfan says

      May 27, 2017 at 4:10 pm

      totally, megarella. I think it was a series many people enjoyed but the stars were using it as a springboard into better projects they saw themselves doing… and I think they have both done well (K Stew and R Pat). So why would a journalist at Cannes want to write a piece that referenced Twilight? So dumb.

    Billy Zane

    Cal in Titanic

    I think it would probably be a double edged sword. On the one hand, it’s like, “I’ve done so many other things since that role”. The other side is, no one would know who actor was if he hadn’t done such a good job at the ONE role. So, yes, I’d probably get annoyed anyway.

  35. Conchord says

    May 26, 2017 at 7:44 pm

    Let’s see who would fit the description. Jon Heder? No, can’t find anything with him.

    Daniel Radcliffe? Aha! He has a film with Sam Neill called Escape from Pretoria that’s being shopped at Cannes this year.

    Love Actually, word actually being a clue.

    Liam Neeson is in Cannes currently I believe.

    • mpizzle says

      May 27, 2017 at 3:59 pm

      Except the Taken trilogy is more Liam’s major role/s than Love, Actually.

    • KatarinaJ says

      May 28, 2017 at 9:25 pm

      And/or a million before that. He isn’t really associated exclusively with one role that got him started.

  41. DenverJayhawk says

    May 26, 2017 at 5:53 pm

    Adrien Brody??? He’s at Cannes this year.
    The Pianist

    He seems like a creep. That whole creepy, skeezy Halle Berry kiss at the Oscars…I can believe he’s a total jerk off screen. Good Publicity for any movie you do is always good. He needs to get over himself!

    Also thought of Cuba Gooding Jr from Jerry Maguire, but I’m not sure he has a movie at Cannes…and too lazy to look it up!

    • michellelnne says

      May 27, 2017 at 5:12 pm

      I think you’re right.. I don’t agree with the RP guesses but couldn’t think of anyone else

    • luvprue1 says

      May 30, 2017 at 2:40 pm

      I doubt it’s Adrian Brody, the press doesn’t seem to talk about him, to him, nor mention him . He would be glad that they noticed him now.

    Twilight movies

    Whether he likes it or not, he is always going to be associated with that series of films. Making a big deal of it just shows his immaturity.

    Richard Gere immediately came to mind
    American Gigolo.

    • michellelnne says

      Pretty woman, an officer and a gentleman..he’s been in quite a few movies That he’s known for

    • Lindasu says

      May 28, 2017 at 5:08 pm

      American Gigolo got him “in” and noticed. But now that he’s all zen and established this is NOT the movie is wants to be necessarily commenting on.

    • KatarinaJ says

      May 27, 2017 at 1:22 pm

      This! Twilight far and away eclipses everything he has done. Not true of Pacino or Leo etc.

    • Marvella says

      May 28, 2017 at 10:46 am

      Agree. “Came to fame” is the key. Leo and Depp were already famous and established but Pattison indeed came to fame playing Edward. I can understand his frustration but he’s lucky and needs to realize it. Hang in there and do good work and something else will happen.

    • wfreshie says

      May 28, 2017 at 11:44 am

      I thought of him but twilight is only 9 years ago , does that count as “many years ago” or it was written that way to be not TOOO obvious

    • sherryg says

      May 28, 2017 at 5:21 pm

      I agree. The picture reminds me of the fog in twilight.

    • KatarinaJ says

      May 28, 2017 at 9:24 pm

      You may have a point about age but WHY would an interviewer keep repeating TITANIC to Leo now? Suppose you could argue Martin Scorsese’s THE IRISHMAN would start a Godfather convo with Pacino since it is also with DeNiro but I don’t know.

  51. Booboogirl says

    May 26, 2017 at 4:22 pm

    Leo dicaprio

    • KatarinaJ says

      May 27, 2017 at 1:21 pm

      which ONE role is Leo associated with? Guess you could argue TITANIC but he has done SO much huge stuff he is in no way associated with one role folks would still be asking about.

    • MizGrandma says

      May 29, 2017 at 8:50 am

      Leo is not my cup of tea, so have never seen him in a movie. To me he is still that pimply adolescent who got WAY too much press early on. Yuck.

    • KatarinaJ says

      May 29, 2017 at 9:54 am

      Oh and his breakout start I think most technically was Gilbert Grape so I don’t think they’d be discussing it or TITANIC.
