Robert Pattinson

Never has a vampire looked so good! Just when we thought it was time we had a new hottie to drool over (no offence Zac, but we are always on the look out for new material) one good lookin' (but non-blood sucking, thank heavens!) vampire has turned up to save the day and fill our bedroom walls with posters. Ok, so he's not exactly a vampire, but Robert Pattinson does play one in his break-out role in the new film Twilight.

Robert’s got Hollywood buzzing thanks to his role as Edward Cullen in Twilight, where he plays an attractive vampire who becomes swept up in a forbidden romance (out on the 11th of December). But you miiiiiiiight recognise him if you’re a Harry Potter fan, as he played Cedric Diggory in two of the Harry films.

Robert was born in London, England, and has been involved in acting from a very young age. Acting isn’t his only talent though, he’s also done modelling and thinks of himself as a bit of a musician- he even recorded a song for the Twilight soundtrack!

Robert's a bit of a comedian too, always pulling faces for photogs and making some very random comments! Check out our slideshow of Robert's funniest faces and quotes.

Be sure to check out Robert when Twilight hits the big screen on the 11th of December!

Random facts about Robert
