During an interaction with The New York Times, Pattinson recalled being questioned by an immigration officer during a routine visa check.

Pattinson admitted he never imagined the Twilight franchise’s success would last this long. “Not in a million years did I think I’d still be known for it,” he shared. While grateful for the recognition, he emphasized how far he has come as an actor since those days.
After Twilight, Pattinson took on challenging roles in films like Cosmopolis, Good Time, High Life, The Lighthouse, and Tenet. His transition from a heartthrob vampire to serious acting roles has earned him critical acclaim.
His portrayal of Batman in Matt Reeves’ The Batman showcased a darker, more vulnerable side of Bruce Wayne. Pattinson revealed his unique take on the character: “What if Bruce is socially awkward and still grieving his parents’ death? He’s not the charming playboy we’ve seen before.”
Robert Pattinson will next be seen in Mickey 17, set for release on April 18, 2025. Directed by Bong Joon-ho, the film is highly anticipated by fans and critics alike.
This humorous airport story reflects Pattinson’s down-to-earth nature and ability to embrace his past roles while continuing to evolve as an actor. Fans can’t wait to see what he brings to the screen next.
