I kid you not. This isn't a joke. The Twilight star wants to play Jar Jar Binks in the new trilogy and says he loves the character.

With Disney’s announcement that Star Wars Episode VII will be released in 2015, everyone from writers to directors to actors and actresses are letting reporters know where they stand on Star Wars. Some are interested in playing a role in the franchise, while others have expressed having no interest. Recently Twilight star, Robert Pattinson was asked about the Disney/LucasFilm purchase.

"Yeah, I think it's a powerful thing. You look at something like Star Wars. No one's going to call Star Wars a franchise. Just after the new ones. [Laughs] The first three, that was a series, not a franchise."


When asked if he would want to be in the new Star Wars, Pattinson said the following

"In Star Wars? Oh, absolutely. In a heartbeat."


Even if that role was Jar Jar Binks, the interviewer continued?

"I actually kind of like Jar Jar. I don't understand what the big deal is about Jar Jar."


I don't think even Jar Jar deserves this type of punishment. What do you...of course your going to say you hate it so why ask. This, this is stupid. Comment below. Peace.

He's been pretty unfortunate in a way. He's a decent actor, but his rep has been ruined by Twilight. However, he would never have broken out if he hadn't done Twilight. Damned if he did, damned if he didn't. At least that God-awful "film series" is over now. Maybe in like 5 years or so people will be able to take him seriously.

playing the most loathed character in the star wars galaxy, won't make people forget you made vampires gay.

Ooooh it's one of "those" articles written just to stir up hate

Got it.

Out of many of the misleading titles, this is the worst. All I heard is that Pattinson doesn't share any of the distain a lot of people seem to have for the character of Jar-Jar Binks. And he even praised the original trilogy before then so...

What crack is he smoking? Does he think an old & retarded Jar Jar will be anything worth portraying?
