Robert Pattinson's Georges Duroy looks mighty thoughtful — and very handsome — in this photo from Bel Ami. (Click on the photo to enlarge it.) Is Duroy thinking about who he will be seducing next?
As I mentioned in my previous Bel Ami post, Pattinson, much like fellow Twilight Saga player Kristen Stewart, has thus far taken the indie route when not playing the devoted vampire Edward Cullen. As Guy de Maupassant's ambitious social climber, Pattinson will have the chance to be cunning, sensual, and hopefully both funny and dramatic as well.
Directed by award-winning British stage veterans Declan Donnellan and Nick Ormerod, Bel Ami also features Christina Ricci, Colm Meaney, Holly Grainger, and Academy Award nominees Uma Thurman and Kristin Scott Thomas.
Next for Pattinson is Water for Elephants, in which he'll be surrounded by Oscar winners and nominees, among them fellow players Reese Witherspoon, Christoph Waltz, and Hal Holbrook.
And Breaking Dawn, to be directed by Oscar winner Bill Condon and pairing him up once again with Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner.
The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, directed by David Slade, opens on June 30.

@ Adam, if you read the book you can say that about his character! But I cant wait to see this movie
This movie is going to be fantastic. I am so looking forward to see it.
He looks like a douche.
It'll be interesting to see what he does with this character. I think it's great that in between Twilight films he does little projects like that. But when does he rest? He seems to go from one to the next.
