The handsome actor achieved massive success by portraying the vampire Edward Cullen in the hit franchise, Twilight. The romantic fantasy film series quickly stereotyped him as a teenybopper heartthrob, but the actor was looking to reinvent his screen image.

Pattinson is now considered a versatile actor and has proved to fans and critics that he loves challenging roles.
