Robert Pattinson’s Gay Role May Irk Female Fans

From teen king vampire to gay poet?

Little Ashes is Robert Pattinson’s follow up film for Twilight with Javier Beltran, which details the intimate relationship between Spanish artist Salvador Dalí and poet Federico Garcia Lorca. Which reminds us of Leonardo Dicaprio’s gay film, Total Eclipse, where he played poet Arthur Rimbaud.

Described by its producers as ‘racy’ and ’sexy’, the film will show Dalí and Lorca’s feelings deepen into a love affair which the sexually repressed artist tries and fails to consummate. As a substitute, Lorca sleeps with a female friend, with Dalí present as a voyeur.-Gaurdian

We bet all those screaming female fans aren’t buying advanced tickets to see him be a “real” actor and play gay with Javier. Don’t worry there’s not an intense butt love scene like in Brokeback, because Dali said in interviews that he never allowed the poet’s homosexual advances seduce him.

  • How in the hell does playing a homosexual role make one a great actor? There's absolutely NOTHING attractive about seeing deviate behavior between what was NEVER meant to be together, or else NONE of us would be here to say so!!!

  • I agree with the people that think that it is a great idea for him to do a movie where he plays a gay role because he that just comes to show that he is a great actor and is not afraid to take on a challenge. And so what if he is gay.....

  • I think people need to stop focusing on his good looks, and let him act, which he is good at, and let him find his way with this new fame.
