Robert Pattinson is used to being for the girls.
While being interviewed on the red carpet for his new film Mickey 17, Pattinson said it’s strange to now have a fanbase that is dominated by men.
When asked about so many male fans coming out to support him at the premiere, the actor said, “It’s quite strange.”
“There’s like a bunch of guys, which is a new one for me!” Pattinson continued.
The switchup is likely due to Pattinson starring as Bruce Wayne/Batman in Matt Reeves’ 2022 DC superhero film The Batman. He started his career, however, with a mostly woman-dominated fanbase after starring as Edward Cullen in the Twilight franchise.
Reeves’ The Batman earned $772 million at the global box office. A sequel to that film is set to go into production at the end of 2025, with a scheduled release date of Oct. 1, 2027.
Pattinson spoke about The Batman sequel to Variety at the Mickey 17 London premiere.
“I know what it’s about but I can’t tell anyone, but it’s like, it’s very cool,” Pattinson said. “It’s very exciting.”
