Robert Pattinson is one of the most recognizable faces in Hollywood today with many successful roles to his name.
However, like any actor, he hasn’t booked every single movie he has auditioned for.
Before joining the cast of the Twilight franchise as Edward Cullen, Robert had already been making a name for himself with appearances in projects like Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
His portrayal of the glittering vampire turned him into a household name, and he’s become even more popular in Hollywood since.
Of course, he’s played multiple iconic roles, including a turn as Batman. But Robert also auditioned for some parts that he did not end up getting. Some of those were in serious blockbusters.
We rounded up seven movies that he was in the running for. The actor shared some funny anecdotes about some of his auditions. For example, he said that directors were once concerned that he was “on drugs” due to his approach to a specific scene.
In another case, he went in with a false identity, and the team clocked him for it.
Meanwhile, a director denied a long-held rumor that Robert was up for a role within the Marvel Cinematic Universe before joining DC. Do you want to know which movie he was allegedly going to star in?
