Robert Pattinson in Korea: Why He Burst Out Laughing During a Personal Color Test
On Jan 22nd, the official account for the movie “Mickey 17” shared a clip showing Robert Pattinson earnestly participating in a personal color test.
In the video, Robert Pattinson’s overly serious demeanor during the test unintentionally drew laughter.
Netizens reacted with amusement, saying, “He must really be curious whether he’s warm-toned or cool-toned” and “Robert Pattinson getting a personal color test in Korea? This is incredible!”
Throughout the test, Robert Pattinson maintained a serious expression as various colored fabrics were held up in front of him. However, when the final fabric was removed, he burst out laughing.
Underneath the last fabric was a white promotional cloth with the words “Mickey 17 trailer to be released tomorrow” written on it.
Robert Pattinson, who lightened up from that moment, happily enjoyed the test.
Netizens collectively declared, “Surprisingly, light pink really suits him” and “Robert Pattinson is warm-toned.”
Earlier, during a press conference with director Bong Joon-ho, Robert Pattinson shared his thoughts on working with the acclaimed filmmaker, “Actors always want to work with directors who challenge boundaries and bring something new to the table, and that’s exactly what Bong Joon-ho’s films do. I searched for projects like a hunter, and Bong Joon-ho’s work stood out right at the center. I’ve never worked with a director who focuses on such intricate details. His approach was different from what I’m used to—systematic and confident. His execution was extraordinary, and the shooting process was much shorter than I anticipated. After a few weeks, I got used to it and felt a sense of freedom. Concentrating my energy on shorter takes allowed me to appreciate the process, and I found myself thinking, ‘This is the best set I’ve ever been on!’“
Meanwhile, “Mickey 17”, an adaptation of Edward Ashton’s novel “Mickey7”, tells the unpredictable story of Mickey, a disposable employee assigned to dangerous tasks. When Mickey faces his 17th death, a new version, Mickey 18, is printed, leading to an unexpected turn of events. The cast includes Robert Pattinson, Naomi Ackie, Steven Yeun, Toni Collette and Mark Ruffalo, with Bong Joon-ho directing.
