Cedric Is My Homeboy
Per our local weekly rag, Robert Pattinson will be in Portland to film a movie next month:
DIGGORY DUE: One of two Hogwarts Champions in the Triwizard Tourney of ’94, Cedric Diggory is making his way to PDX. Well, actually, the actor who played him in those Harry Potter flicks is, and he’s come back from the dead to play a teenage vampire. Robert Pattinson will begin filming Twilight, Catherine Hardwicke’s (Lords of Dogtown ) latest film, in and around Portland beginning Feb. 25. Based on Stephenie Meyer’s popular novel, the hope is Twilight will be the first in a tweener’s trilogy. Hardwicke, who has family in Bend, has another local connection, too: She directed ’06’s The Nativity Story , written by Portland-based screenwriter Mike Rich.
