" Spoiler alert , did n’t get it . But I think of then seeing R - Patz playing this part , I ’m like , in what public ? "
Hold on tight, spidermonkey:Josh Peckrevealed that he was in the running for the role of Edward inTwilight.
Yes, theDrake and Joshstar hadTaylor Lautneron an episode of his podcastGood Guyswhere he dropped the casual bomb that the role played byRobert Pattinsoncould have been his.
“I remember it’s like 2006–7, they’re like, ‘Audition for this movieTwilight, it’s based on a book, it’s going to be great,’” he began.
We need to see that sense of hearing tape#edwardcullen#twilight#twilightaudition#taylorlautner#goodguyspodcast#podcastclips
“I send in my tape for Edward. A month later, I’m with my manager, he goes, ‘It’s down to you and three guys.‘Really? I hadn’t even had a tummy tuck yet. I’m like there’s no way, he’s got to be so shirtless. It’s not going to happen," Josh continued.
“Spoiler alert, didn’t get it. But I remember then seeing R-Patz playing this part, I’m like,in what fucking world?" he continued. “Were they like, they’re like, ‘Okay, here’s what we’re thinking.Chris Hemsworthor Stanley Tucci.’ Like, what the fuck?! Impossible!”
As hard as Josh is on himself, it’s worth noting that he is and always has been a handsome fella! I can’t speak for his serious™ acting ability, as I refuse to seeOppenheimer, but who knows! Maybe given howinsidiousthe saga was for Taylor’s body image, it wouldn’t have been totally fine to have a pre-tummy tuck actor in a world with sparkling vampires.
In case you’re curious who else was in the running,apparentlyDave Franco, Jamie Campbell Bower, and Dustin Milligan were all considered at one point. Release the audition tapes!!!
