Prince Harry to be Played by Robert Pattinson?
Robert Pattinson is set to go from living off of people’s blood to living off the British taxpayer — he’s reportedly in talks to play Britain’s Prince Harry in a new movie!
The actor — who plays vampire Edward Cullen in the smash hit Twilight movie series (it’s about vampires, btw) — is apparently up against Harry Potter star Rupert Grint, who is also vying for the role.
The movie, called The Spare, will cover the highs of lows of the young prince’s royal experiences, including the death of his mother Princess Diana and his time spent on the front line of the Army in Afghanistan. Filming is set to begin next year in both the UK and the Middle East.
“I feel a sense of compassion for the guy,” said director Peter Kosminsky.
“His parents break up in the most spectacularly public way, his mother dies in the most tragic and, again, public way and everything is picked over.
“My personal approach as a director is that I read the script and people start to pop into my head.”
Aside from Twilight, Pattinson, 23, has starred in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Cedric Diggory), Little Ashes (Salvador Dalí) and in 2010, he will appear in a theater production for producer David Pugh.
The sexy star is currently in Vancouver, Canada, filming the Eclipse — the third Twilight flick.

i think that he might be good 4 that part…but i do’nt know…
I think its a bad idea putting Rob into the Harry role. Rob is not a tough type of guy, Harry is. They might both be English ladykillers, but thats where the similarity ends. How is he going to hide those feminine hands? Wrong kind of film; a bio on a twenty something guy? Please.
