Robert Pattinson Plans Major Revenge Against the Paparazzi

Robert Pattinson was a relatively unknown actor before landing the role of a lifetime as Edward Cullen in the Twilight series, so the fact that paparazzi now follow his every move is pretty strange -- not to mention annoying. So, he's already plotting how to get the photogs back, when he's a little removed from the spotlight.

The British heartthrob told Elle.com: “You know, when the whole thing dries up and there's hardly any paparazzi around - I don't know, in 15 years or something - I like the idea of just one paparazzo coming out and trying to get a picture, and I just beat the s**t out of him. I mean - out of nowhere - when my picture's not even worth anything … and I've spent all my money, so you can't sue me!”

Pattinson, whose next role is opposite Oscar winner Reese Witherspoon in romantic dramaWater for Elephants, has developed some unusual techniques to try stop the paparazzi.

He revealed: “A bunch of paparazzi were following me, and I thought the best way to deal with it was to stop my car in the middle of the street and say, 'I'm not leaving, and I'm not going to speak to you anymore.’ They got all p***ed off because they can't just keep taking the same picture. We were in Venice by the boardwalk, and they kept trying to get all these drug dealers to come up to the car. I was just like, ‘Oh my God, this is insane.’ ”

'Breaking Dawn' Wedding Scene Has Been Filmed

The production of Edward and Bella's wedding scene has taken place this month as it was reported before. Giving a sort of confirmation about the filming is Mia Maestro who will portray a new character in "The Twilight Saga's Breaking Dawn". "Long wedding night until 6am. Everyone was SO neatly frocked up :) Just about to start facing this Saturday...," so she tweeted on Saturday night. 

Other stars, although not spilling any detail about the scene they were filming, also took it to their own Twitter accounts to complaint about the shooting. "whyyyyyyyy can't I fall asleep! These night shoots are killing me! Messing up my sleep patterns hard core," Ashley Greene wrote. 

The Billy Black depicter, Gil Birmingham, tweeted "14-hour all-night shoot yesterday. Vamps everwhere! First full day off . . . Night shoots sure mess with the internal time clock. Don't know if I should sleep or stay awake :)", who lands the role of vampire Tanya, also wrote on April 2, "Night shoots kick my back side... leaving the birds to twitter I'm off to bed!" 

"Breaking Dawn" will reportedly wrap the principal photography on April 13. Bill Condon serves behind the lens for the last two-part "Twilight" film installment which is shot back to back. Original cast members includingRobert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner return to reprise their respective roles. 

Summit will drop "The Twilight Saga's Breaking Dawn: Part I" in the U.S. on November 18, while "The Twilight Saga's Breaking Dawn Part II" will follow later on November 16, 2012. 

Robert Pattinson Furious over Leaked 'Breaking Dawn' Photos

Robert Pattinson has choice words for one of his Twilight fans. Specifically, the unnamed person who leaked a series of photos from the upcoming film Breaking Dawn last week. One of the images showed Bella and Edward in an intimate embrace, while the other appeared to show Bella undergoing a peculiar transformation.

"It's just ridiculous. I literally can't believe that it happened," Pattinson told MTV. He then issued a call to arms:
I want the Twilight troops to mobilize, all the good fans, and find out who these little sh**s are and just hack into their compuyters and destroy them ... I'm being genuinely serious, Twilight fans ... Punish them. Fighting words! But this isn't the first time Pattinson has been furious at hackers. Earlier this year, Pattinson said he was going to sue an Australian teen who allegedly hacked into his personal email account.

Pattinson just doesn't get why anyone would have leaked the photos in the first place. "Why do this maliciously? You're not a fan. You're just a di**. That's all there is to it."
