Robert Pattinson Films New Movie ‘Remember Me’ In NYC

We know that Twilight star Kristen Stewart is already hard at work in pre-production of her next non-Twilight film (The Twilight Saga: New Moon wrapped production in late May/early June) and has already changed her appearance for her new film The Runaways … but what of the other Twilight star Robert Pattinson? Well, it turns out that he, too, has begun work on his next film. Here are photos of R. Pattz in NYC over the weekend on the set of his new non-Twilight film Remember Me:

Pattinson will play the lead role in “Remember Me,” a story of a young couple whose burgeoning relationship is complicated by a succession of family tragedies that test their bond, according to ScreenDaily.com. The makers of the film, which had previously been titled “Memoirs,” have not yet settled on which actress who will play Pattinson’s love interest. Emmy-winning director Allen Coulter (”The Sopranos,” “Damages”) will direct, and Jenny Lumet, who penned the script for last year’s critical darling “Rachel Getting Married,” is working on a draft of the screenplay … Summit is staying tight-lipped about plot specifics, but co-chairman and CEO Patrick Wachsberger likened “Remember Me” to “Love Story,” the classic 1970 romance starring Ali MacGraw and Ryan O’Neal. Landing the “Remember Me” lead marks the first major role for Pattinson since he rocketed to public adulation for his portrayal of vampire Edward Cullen in the “Twilight” franchise. He had been signed to appear alongside Rosario Dawson in “Parts per Billion,” but was forced to drop out due to his “New Moon” commitment.
