Whether it be high-budget or indie films in the industry, English actorRobert Pattinsonhas never managed to disappoint anyone in his career with his performances, and continues to prove to the world why he’s at the top of the industry today. But his journey started in the industry when he signed up to play the role of Edward Cullen, one of the major characters from theTwilight Sagafranchise. Here, the star was chosen for the role majorly for his exceptionally good looks, a fact that his mother would humble him about later.

In an interview withMTV, theWater For Elephantsstar talked about how he wanted to know more about the character that he was chosen to play on-screen since he had to depict the most handsome man in the world as per the books by author Stephenie Meyer. But when he was in the US three days after getting chosen for the role, his mother sent him a photo, where he could see a petition from the fans of the literary series who had a very unattractive photo from one of his films and talked about how they did not approve of him to play Edward Cullen in the movie. He said:

“No, initially I did. But my mom sent me some stuff, which she thought was really funny, when I was already in America. They had this picture from this Viking film I did where I looked like someone had beaten me in the face with a frying pan. I was wearing this disgusting wig. And they were like “THIS is Edward.” It was a petition, which they were going to send to Summit saying, “We will not go and see the movie.” It got up to 75,000 signings. This is about three days after I got cast. I was thinking, “Thanks for sending that mom!” That was my welcome into Twilight.”

Therefore, taking a friendly jab at her son, his mother also reminded him about staying humble while striving for and achieving success.
