What do we mean when we say an actor has "aged well"? That he's discovered a sense of humor, like Alec Baldwin? That—as with Clooney—the glib ease of youthful beauty has receded, revealing some deeper well of talent? Or that he's simply got a knack for keeping on as though nothing's changed at all? (Really only applicable if your name is Jack Nicholson.)
In the case of Pierce Brosnan, the answer is a little of all of these—plus, as he says with a shrug, "good genes, you know." Certainly there can be no doubt of his membership in the club: It's been nearly three decades since he landed in Hollywood from London and was cast as Remington Steele at his first audition. This spring Brosnan, 56, will appear in four films, including Roman Polanski's political thriller The Ghost Writer, a run notable for the fact that none of these roles bear resemblance to the character that's alternately dogged and rewarded Brosnan's whole career. Surely you know him: priapic chap, looks good in a suit, not Don Draper…
Audiences flocked to see Robert Pattinson as a vampire, but will they come to see him as a mortal? The actor has had two previous non-"Twilight" starring roles, the Salvador Dali bio-pic "Little Ashes" and the indie coming-of-age flick "How To Be." Both movies were bombs.
Next month, Pattinson stars in "Remember Me," a romantic drama featuring some high-octane talent both in front and behind the camera. Will this movie find an audience, allowing him to prove that he can be more than a sparkly vampire or will he be forever cursed?
The rabid fans with their cell phone cams and ear-splitting screams. The frenzy over a rumored run-in with a moving taxi cab. The daily perils and pleasures of working in the Big Apple. As all this by-now-familiar madness surrounded Robert Pattinson on the New York City set of "Remember Me" last year, co-star Pierce Brosnan couldn't help but want to shield his fellow actor.
"I play his dad and there's a part of you, as a dad — you feel protective toward the fellow," Brosnan told MTV News.
Ask Robert Pattinson and Emilie de Ravin about shooting their new movie, Remember Me, and they instantly start talking about the throngs of Twilight fans and pushy paparazzi who swarmed around them as they filmed on the streets of New York.
"It was the most ridiculous experience," says Pattinson, flashing the sweet, shy smile those crowds hoped to see. "You're trying to stay in character and you're trying to walk down the street, but all those people keep reminding you that you're not this character, you're—"
"A show pony," cracks de Ravin, and the two burst into laughter.
It’s nice to see Robert Pattinson with a little colour in those cheeks of his as he plays Tyler Roth in romantic drama, Remember Me. No one understands him, he doesn’t get along with dear old Dad (Pierce Brosnan), needs a haircut and is a bit of a rebel. Can anyone say emo? He is saved by Ally (Emilie de Ravin), a ray of sunshine who creates a turnaround in his life. Tyler falls hard for Ally, but as with any romantic drama, there are obstacles that threaten their passionate bond.
The price is based on what traders think a film will do in it's first four weeks of release (twelve weeks for limited-release films). For Remember Me, the four week BO is predicted to be $38,980,000. Opening week-end would be around $20,800,000.

To shift gears a bit, speaking of media-centric figures, you're in Remember Me with Robert Pattinson, which must have been totally bizarre to try and film in New York City.
PB: [laughs] It was. Well, I've seen it. I've never encountered such attention in my career. I mean, I certainly had it but on a day-to-day basis, this young man certainly acquitted himself very well. And I think he was just completely blindsided by everything. And here he was doing a drama, which he's executive producer on, and he had a heavy workload every day, and it's a hard one to be wrenched out of every time you step out of our trailer.
Especially in New York.
PB: And there's nowhere to hide. There's nowhere to run. You know, you're damned if you do, and you're damned if you don't... You have to go to emotional places where you really need to [put your] head down and [look] straight ahead... It's a very dramatic movie, and it's a beautiful movie. It's a love story. I play his father. What can I say about it? I'm very proud of that.
In Remember Me he plays a guy whose issues are eerily like his own. Tyler is a young man who has retreated into himself, but then he meets a woman, becomes conflicted, and has to choose whether to remain in lockdown or step into life and the world.
"Tyler is so aware of his actions. But he has no idea whether they're of any value at all. Can you be a person if you live in the bubble? He's stuck in the middle. At the same time, he's lucky to have the choice. Conflict is innate in a lucky person."

"I'm a lucky person. Thank God. And I'm conflicted. Thank God."
