Pattinson had supporting roles in the made for television film Ring of the Nibelungs in 2004 and in director Mira Nair's Vanity Fair, although his scenes in the latter were deleted and only appear on the DVD version.[40][41] In May 2005, he was scheduled to appear in the UK premiere of The Woman Before at the Royal Court Theatre, but was fired shortly before the opening night and was replaced by Tom Riley.[42] Later that year he played Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. For this role he was named that year's "British Star of Tomorrow" by The Times[43] and had more than once been hailed as "the next Jude Law".[38][44][45]
In 2006, Pattinson appeared in The Haunted Airman a psychological thriller, aired on BBC Four on 31 October, he earned favourable reviews.[46][47][48] The Stage praised his performance by saying that "(he) played the airman of the title with a perfect combination of youthful terror and world weary cynicism."[49] On 19 February 2007, he appeared in a supporting role in a one-off television drama based on the best-selling novel by Kate Long, The Bad Mother's Handbook.[50][51]
2008–13: Breakthrough with The Twilight Saga and widespread recognition
In 2008, Pattinson landed the coveted role of Edward Cullen in the film Twilight, based on Stephenie Meyer's best-selling novel of the same name. According to TV Guide, Pattinson was initially apprehensive about auditioning for the role of Edward Cullen, fearful that he would not be able to live up to the "perfection" expected from the character.[52] The film was released on 21 November 2008 and turned Pattinson into a moviestar overnight.[53] Although the film received mixed reviews, critics praised his and co-star Kristen Stewart's chemistry in the film.[54] The New York Times called Pattinson a "capable and exotically beautiful" actor[55] and Roger Ebert said he was "well-chosen" for the role.[56]
His other release of 2008, How to Be, was a low-budget comedy drama film written and directed by Oliver Irving.[57][58] It screened at number of film festivals, earned mixed reviews from critics.[59][60] Pattinson then starred as Salvador Dalí in the film Little Ashes, a Spanish-British drama directed by Paul Morrison.[16] He also starred in a short film The Summer House directed by Daisy Gili.[61] This short film later re-released as a part of an anthology film titled Love & Distrust, comprising 5 short films following eight individuals from diverse backgrounds on their quest for true contentment.[62][63]
He reprised his role as Edward Cullen in the Twilight sequel The Twilight Saga: New Moon, which was released on 20 November 2009. The film earned a record-breaking $142,839,137 opening weekend and an overall run of $709,827,462 worldwide.[64] Though the film received negative reviews, film critic Michael Phillips from the Chicago Tribune said that Pattinson was still "interesting to watch" despite the bad makeup.[65] Bill GoodyKoontz from the Arizona Republic said that "Pattinson's actually not in the film that much, but he does his best when he's around"[66] and Michael O'Sullivan of the Washington Post noted that his acting was "uniformly strong".[67]
In 2009, Pattinson presented at the 81st Academy Awards.[68] On 10 November 2009, Revolver Entertainment released the DVD Robsessed, a documentary which details Pattinson's life and popularity.[17] His next film The Twilight Saga: Eclipse was released on 30 June 2010, earning $698,491,347 worldwide.[69][70] The film received mixed reviews, Kirk Honeycutt of The Hollywood Reporter praised Pattinson's performance, stating that "(he) makes you forget the white makeup and weird eye contact lenses – to focus on a character torn between his love for the human Bella (Stewart) and the knowledge that she'll have to let go of her beating heart if she's to stay with him forever."[71] Will Lawrence of Empire Online praised the performance of three leads of the film by saying that "All three corners of the love triangle look sharper than before: the most accomplished actor, Stewart, still lip-biting, Lautner still pec-flexing, and Pattinson not fully shaking that fiery-eyed pout. But all have grown into their roles, cutting loose in a film that (thankfully) sidesteps the melodrama of its prequels."[72]

Pattinson executively produced and starred in the film Remember Me, which was released on 12 March 2010.[18] Though the film received mixed reviews, some critics praised his performance. Jake Coyle of The Associated Press said that "The young actor has an unmistakable screen presence. However in Remember Me, he pours it on thickly and self-consciously. With low eyes, sleeves rolled up just so and cigarette drooping artfully from his mouth, Tyler (like Edward Cullen) is a reluctant romantic."[73] Ian Nathan of Empire Online stated that "this is the best thing he's done."[74] and Kirk Honeycutt of The Hollywood Reporter praised his and co-star Emilie de Ravin's chemistry in the film, stating the "scenes between Pattinson and de Ravin exude genuine charm."[75]
In 2011, he starred as Jacob Jankowski in Water for Elephants, a film adaptation of the Sara Gruen novel of the same name.[19] The film received mixed reviews, but Pattinson's performance was praised. Film critic Richard Corliss from Time praised Pattinson for being "shy and watchful" and said that he "radiates a slow magnetism that locks the viewer's eyes on him", ultimately calling him "star quality".[76] Mick LaSalle from the San Francisco Chronicle stated that Pattinson succeeded at holding his own at the center of a major feature and was "endlessly watchable".[77] Peter Travers of the Rolling Stone said he "smolders" in the film[78] and Todd McCarthy of The Hollywood Reporter said that "Pattinson is entirely convincing as Jacob".[79]

Pattinson reappeared as Edward Cullen in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1, which was released on 18 November 2011 and earned $705,058,657 at the box office.[80] He played Georges Duroy in a film adaptation of the 1885 novel Bel Ami, and the film had a world premiere at the 62nd Berlin International Film Festival.[81] It was released on 12 February 2012.[82]
Pattinson starred in the film adaptation of Don DeLillo's Cosmopolis, directed by David Cronenberg.[83] The film competed for the Palme d'Or at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival.[20][84] Though the film was well received, Pattinson's performance was praised. Justin Chang of Variety wrote, "An eerily precise match of filmmaker and material, Cosmopolis probes the soullessness of the 1% with the cinematic equivalent of latex gloves. ... Pattinson's excellent performance reps an indispensable asset."[85] Robbie Collin of The Telegraph stated that it is a sensational performance from Robert Pattinson, "yes, that Robert Pattinson – as Packer. Pattinson plays him like a human caldera; stony on the surface, with volcanic chambers of nervous energy and self-loathing churning deep below."[86] And Owen Gleiberman of Entertainment Weekly stated, "Pattinson, pale and predatory even without his pasty-white vampire makeup, delivers his frigid pensées with rhythmic confidence."[87]
Pattinson one last time appeared as Edward Cullen in the final instalment of Twilight saga, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2 which was released on 16 November 2012, and has grossed over $829 million worldwide, becoming the highest-grossing film of the Twilight series.[88][89]

In May 2014, two of Pattinson's film had their premieres at 2014 Cannes Film Festival.[92] First, Pattinson starred in David Michod's futuristic western The Rover,[93] alongside Guy Pearce and Scoot McNairy.[94][95] The film had its premiere out of competition at the festival.[96] For his performance of a naive simpleton member of the criminal gang, Pattinson received rave reviews. Scott Foundas of Variety said that "Pattinson who turns out to be the film's greatest surprise, sporting a convincing Southern accent and bringing an understated dignity to a role that might easily have been milked for cheap sentimental effects." He further added that "(it is) a career re-defining performance for Pattinson that reveals untold depths of sensitivity and feeling."[21] Todd McCarthy, writing for The Hollywood Reporter, wrote that "Pattinson delivers a performance that, despite the character’s own limitations, becomes more interesting as the film moves along."[97] Jessica Kiang in her review for The Playlist, noted that "(Pattinson) turns in a performance that manages to be more affecting than affected."[98]
Next, he reunited with Cronenberg for the second time in Maps to the Stars, a satire drama described as a darkly comic look at Hollywood excess.[99][100] The film competed for the Palme d'Or at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival.[101] In the film, he played the role of Jerome Fontana, a limo driver and struggling actor, who wants to be a successful screenwriter.[102] Pattinson received favourable reviews for his performance, which Robbie Collin of The Daily Telegraph described as "winningly played."[22]

Other ventures
Modelling
Pattinson began modelling at the age of 12, but his workload began to decrease four years later. In December 2008, he blamed the lack of modelling work on his masculine appearance: "When I first started I was quite tall and looked like a girl, so I got lots of jobs, because it was during that period where the androgynous look was cool. Then, I guess, I became too much of a guy, so I never got any more jobs. I had the most unsuccessful modelling career."[116] Pattinson appeared in the advertising campaign for Hackett's autumn 2007 collection.[117]
In June 2013, Pattinson was announced as the new face of Dior Homme fragrance[118][119][120] and featured in the advertising campaign titled 1000 LIVES, directed by Romain Gavras and photographed by Nan Goldin.

The songs were included in the film after director Catherine Hardwicke added Pattinson's recordings into an early cut without his knowledge, and he agreed that "one of them specifically, it really made the scene better. It was like it was supposed to be there."[5] The soundtrack for the film How to Be features three original songs performed by Pattinson[129] and written by composer Joe Hastings.[130] Pattinson has said, "I've never really recorded anything – I just played in pubs and stuff", and when asked about a professional music career, he said, "Music is my back-up plan if acting fails."[5] In 2010, Pattinson was awarded the "Hollywood's Most Influential Top Unexpected Musicians" award.[131]

In 2008, Pattinson became romantically linked to co-star Kristen Stewart.[170] For a long time, the two did not explicitly confirm a relationship, but paparazzi photographs and eyewitness accounts drove intense media and fan speculation and attention.[171][172] However, Stewart officially acknowledged her relationship with Pattinson for the first time in July 2012, when Us Weekly published photos of Stewart showing affection with her Snow White and the Huntsman director, Rupert Sanders.[173] The day the photos were released, Stewart issued a public apology to Pattinson at People Magazine, saying, "I'm deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I've caused to those close to me and everyone this has affected. This momentary indiscretion has jeopardized the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love him, I'm so sorry."[174] After dodging the question repeatedly, Pattinson confirmed in an interview with Esquire UK in July 2014 that he and Stewart had split in 2012. [175] [176] There had been prior speculation that the couple broke up in May, 2013, when Pattinson was seen removing personal items from Stewart's home. [177]
In September, 2014, it was reported that Pattinson was dating London-based singer, songwriter and dancer FKA twigs. [178]
