Robert Pattinson in Bel Ami - Sexy Screencaps and GIFS

Robert Pattinson IS Georges Duroy

Daily Mail UK Says:

Even in a Victorian French bowler hat and period dress, there is no mistaking the chiselled jaw of Twilight star Robert Pattinson.

But while the vampire series which made his name attracts a mostly teenage audience, his latest role is aimed at a more adult fanbase.

In Bel Ami the 23-year-old plays ‘totally amoral’ journalist Georges Duroy, who rises to the top by manipulating a series of powerful and wealthy mistresses.

The film sees Pattinson’s character take part in an orgy.

The racy scenes were shot at the Grade 1-listed Crossness Pumping Station in London, originally a sewage works.

Kent News reported a source saying: ‘It will be tastefully done with lots of candlelight and lace, but it will be the sexiest thing Robert’s ever been seen in and will get his female fans even more excited.’

Co-star Natalia Tena – who co-starred with Pattinson in Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix – spoke about the film’s nudity, writing on her MySpace page: ‘I start Bel Ami in less than two weeks, slightly nervous especially seeing as you’ll see my naked cleavage.’

Pattinson is currently filming the adaptation of Guy de Maupassant’s short story in Budapest, following two months of shooting in London.

The movie is an adaptation of the 1885 novel about a peasant-born former soldier who becomes a journalist in Paris and climbs the social ladder through a series of affairs with well-connected women.

It also stars Uma Thurman, Christina Ricci and Kristen Scott Thomas.

Collider posted this:

Over the last few months, pre-production on Robert Pattinson’s Bel Ami has been charging forward as we’ve covered the casting of Christina Ricci and Uma Thurman/Kristin Scott Thomas. Now that the casting of the major players has been completed, we’ve been told principal photography on Bel Ami is scheduled to begin February 7 and they’ll be filming in London and Budapest. Here’s the synopsis:

Bel Ami is the story of Georges Duroy (Robert Pattinson), who travels through 1890s Paris, from cockroach ridden garrets to opulent salons, using his wits and powers of seduction to rise from poverty to wealth, from a prostitute’s embrace to passionate trysts with wealthy beauties, in a world where politics and media jostle for influence, where sex is power and celebrity an obsession.

Based on the synopsis, I think Pattinson’s female fanbase is going to be very happy watching this movie.

The other bit of news we were informed of is exactly who each actor is playing in the film and some more casting info. Here’s what we were sent:

Robert Pattinson plays Georges Duroy in this erotically charged story of ambition, power and seduction. Uma Thurman (Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill) is Madeleine, Kristin Scott Thomas (Nowhere Boy, I’ve Loved You So Long) is Virginie, Christina Ricci (Monster, The Ice Storm) is Clotilde, Holly Grainger (Scouting Book for Boys) is Suzanne, Philip Glenister (Life on Mars, Calendar Girls) is Charles, and Colm Meaney (The Damned United, The Snapper) plays Duroy’s adversary, Rousset. The screenplay is written by Rachel Bennette from the novel by Guy de Maupassant, and the film is directed by the influential and innovative Cheek By Jowl directors Declan Donnellan and Nick Ormerod.

Mandy's Mind - "erotically charged" and "power and seduction" had me hooked. Though I also love a few of the cast member and am intrigued by others. I plan read Bel Ami Download for free here and *maybe* even partake in the Online Bel Ami Book CLub.

BEL AMI is produced by Uberto Pasolini (The Full Monty, Machan) with Simon Fuller as executive producer. The director of photography is Hagen Bogdanski (The Young Victoria, The Lives of Others); Attila F. Kovacs (Sunshine, Meeting Venus) is production designer; the costumes are designed by Odile Dicks-Mireaux (An Education, The Constant Gardener); the hair and make-up designer is Jenny Shircore (The Young Victoria, Elizabeth: The Golden Age) and the editor is Masahiro Hirakubo (The Duchess, Trainspotting).

With interest in Robert Pattinson very high, I’d imagine as soon as they are filming at any outside location, images are going to leak from the set.

Mandy's Mind - well.... duh! Less dry spells, Bel Ami filming, Remember Me Press, wooo hoooo!
