London: Actress Uma Thurman is all praises for her Bel Ami co-star Robert Pattinson and has called him a “very serious” actor.
Pattinson, 25, became very involved for his role as 19th century Parisienne womaniser Georges Duroy in the film, and Thurman said he is constantly working hard to bring his skills up to the next level, reported Contactmusic. “He’s very serious. He did a huge amount of rehearsals in his own time. I think that’s what you do when you’re a young actor, when you take your work very seriously and want to take it to the next level,” Thurman said.
The actress, who rose to fame as a teenager in films including Dangerous Liaisons and The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, finds it hard to be as serious as Pattinson.
“When you’ve been doing this a really long time, it’s hard to take it all so seriously. I said to him, ‘Don’t get too upset about it, because, before you know it, ‘Twilight’ will just be an old film that made you lucky enough to get another job. But when you’re in that position and you’re young, it’s hard to hear through the noise,” she said. (PTI)
