Robert Pattinson talks to The Hollywood Reporter about New Moon (here's the new teaser poster), and also spills an interesting detail about his upcoming role in Madeleine Stowe's Western Unbound Captives (in which he plays Rachel Weisz's son):
'After that I am doing a film "Unbound Captives." I can't say much about that but I know the script needs me to learn Comanche! Maybe it'll be like in "Dances With Wolves!" My part is entirely in Comanche, ha ha.'
In Unbound Captives, Weisz will play a woman whose husband is killed and her two children kidnapped by a Comanche war party in 1859. She is rescued by a frontiersman played by Hugh Jackman. It sounds like Pattinson is playing one of the kidnapped children, who was then brought up by the Native Americans to speak their language.
