The cheekbones are a clue, but his eyes seem further apart than you expect – it's a model's face, more attractive in 2D. It's easy to forget that this charming shambles of a man commands at least $12m a movie. Jesus Christ." He tilts back in the chair and laughs, apparently oblivious to the state of his T-shirt. "Yes! People are like: 'Oh, the Mark Hamill curse.' And poor Mark Hamill. "Like Luke Skywalker." He scratches his head. "It's like being compared to people who've been in massive movies who just sort of disappear afterwards, even though they probably had incredibly fulfilling and successful lives," he says, nibbling on a fingernail. In the twilight years of the Twilight juggernaut, his thoughts have turned to what life might be like afterwards. He looks as though he's just been mobbed by a gang of rabid Twihards. It's not even a fashionable tear – the stitching has just gone. His famous hair is ungroomed and his T-shirt has a gaping hole all down one side. He's at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills to talk about Breaking Dawn – Part 1, the fourth instalment of the Twilight franchise that has been his life for the past four years. Even the romance he struck up with Twilight co-star Kristen Stewart two years ago has survived breathless coverage in the gossip magazines, a testament to the 25-year-old's sangfroid. There have been no drugs or fights with paparazzi. He greets the screaming hordes with humour and charm and a willingness to pose for pictures. But Pattinson – aka R Patz – seems to have taken it in his stride. It says something when the star of Harry Potter thinks that you're the one who's too famous. I'm not in Rob's position: I don't have people screaming and crying and clawing at me. Don't interpret that from my perspective.

When asked if he was still in touch with any of the actors from the Harry Potter movies, Pattinson says he’s only been in touch with Emma Watson a few times in the years since the release of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.W hen asked about the pressures of fame, Emma Watson (Hermione in the Harry Potter series) said she was thankful she wasn't Robert Pattinson. I wouldn’t be acting professionally if it wasn’t for that.

In The King, which is now available for streaming on Netflix, Pattinson plays a suave-looking Frenchman in medieval England when a new king reluctantly takes the throne. He seems dangerous, but also, there is mischievousness, and there is just something naughty about his face and his voice. Then when Robert Eggers sent me a picture of Willem, suddenly, I was like, ‘ow.’ Because there is something very frightening about him. As Pattinson described in the interview, based on the character in the script, he “assumed” the actor would be “enormous and evil.” In an interview with the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), Pattinson spoke about when he found out that Willem Dafoe would be his costar for the 1890s period piece.
