Being mobbed every time you leave the house is all in a day's work for Robert Pattinson.

But for Tate Ellington, who played Robert Pattinson's on-screen best friend in Remember Me, thousands of screaming fans following you down the street is one helluva terrifying experience.

OK.co.uk's Nicola McCafferty spent an evening chatting with Tate, the self-effacing actor who starred as Aidan Hall, about what life is like for the Twilight hunk; how tricky it is working with him and how they escaped the hysteria...

What was it like working with Rob on Remember Me, did you guys strike up an instant rapport?

"Yeah I think so [I hope so]! I met Rob at the screen test and luckily I wasn't too nervous that day as I was like I probably won't get the job so... But when I got the job and I met him again, he was automatically as nice as can be and I had to make a point to be more talkative as I can be really shy, and Rob had a bit of shyness too. I was happy he wasn't like this big jerk coming into the room and he was utterly always so humble and nice about everything."

You played Rob's best friend in the movie, did you guys spend time getting to know each other in preparation?
"After I got the job we had a couple of times where we would go to the hotel where he was staying and get to know each other. We sat around and had a beer and just chatted - it was good. I felt very comfortable with him from the get go. And I met Emilie de Ravin not long after, and automatically we were all jerking around!"

You had just finished a stint on Broadway with actor Matthew Broderick when you got the Remember Me job. Were you used to working with big Hollywood stars by the time you met the cast?
"Oh yeah! I was pretty terrified! Initially I was really excited when I found out who was gonna be in it but everybody was so nice...there was never any reason to be intimidated."

Were you a Twilight fan before you started working on this movie?
"I was not... I actually made a point not to watch Twilight [when I got the role], but a girl I was dating at the time was an insane fan about it. She explained to me all four books, I was like that sounds great I might read that at some point! She was also a Harry Potter fan and got me hooked on it and when I heard Rob was in it, I was like Oh Cedric Diggory! Oh no wait, Twilight... [laughs] I watched Twilight not too long after we finished shooting and I kinda expected it to be a bit girly but it was good - I was like, way to go Rob! At some point I have to watch New Moon - I still haven't seen it. But it feels weird now - you're like watching a friend.

Rob quite famously got mobbed by dozens of fans on the New York set... What was that like?
"It was like a running joke [when Rob got mobbed on-set.] The producers sort of prepped me, they were like this sort of thing might be happening and I got there the first day and exactly that happened and I was like woah, you weren't kidding! We had to figure out how we were gonna get round it. It was tricky."

How did Rob cope with all the attention?
"He was so great, I dunno if I could do that everyday, the guy can't even walk down the street - that would probably throw me. But it was hilarious 'cos everyday you knew exactly when Rob was gonna show up on set, you'd just hear the screams and you'd be like - oh Rob's coming! We always got a kick of that. The crew handled it really amazingly. You just kinda got used to it and it was nice - everyday there was just a lot of people there to say hello!"

Did he get a bit freaked out the time?
"Rob was initially a bit... New York is quite an enclosed space but he figured it out. [But] he was always so nice to all the fans. It was always overnight for him. I think he's really settling into it now. I think he's done a great job with it. I dunno if I could cope with it... It would freak me out."

How would you describe your character, Aidan, in the film?
"He's a complete jerk and anyone would punch this guy in the face, but regardless of all the things he says and does he has the best intentions."

What drew you to the role?
"When I read the script I was like, I want this guy to show through in the moments where he can. He has a big heart and he feels things for this people. Tyler is like his adopted family and he's always trying to look out for his friend.He's the kinda guy you can call whenever you're in any sort of trouble and he'll be there in a heartbeat."

E1 Entertainment have been kind enough to give us an exclusive clip from the DVD release of Remember Me, the movie which, as well as Robert Pattinson stars Pierce Brosnan, Chris Cooper and Emilie de Ravin.
This clip comes from the ‘Making Of’ Featurette on the Remember Me DVD which is released in the UK on DVD & Blu-ray 26th July 2010.

"Oh, I don't know. I don't think about Oscars."

—Academy Award winner Christoph Waltz, who is currently filming Water for Elephants with Robert Pattinson, on whether Rob will follow in his and costar Reese Witherspoon's footsteps one day.

Waltz, who we caught up with after the Green Hornet panel at Comic-Con, is playing the villain type in both flicks (big surprise), but he joked it's always "the other guys that are wrong" not him.

Waltz told us that filming is going "very well" despite the paparazzi hounding their set, which is now a daily occurrence.

So can you really blame Rob for getting fed up with the stalkarazzi while trying to enjoy a day off in Malibu over the weekend?

If you watch the video on X17, we feel nothing but sorry for Pattinson. After nicely asking the paps to get their shot and leave him alone they just continue to annoy and snap away. If it were us, we think R.Pattz was rather calm about the situation.

Really though, who can blame Rob and Kristen Stewart for getting peeved? Even though K. gets more crap for her 'tude, both of them are pretty accommodating when it comes to the shutterbugs. They don't punch them, so that's a start right? No wonder they prefer to keep all their stuff private, sheesh.

Either way, good security on set for Water for Elephants is keeping the paps at bay as much as possible.

Waltz told us that despite WFE being one of the most talked-about sets right now, he's totally enjoying working with Rob and Reese and all the baggage that comes with.

But his favorite co-star?

"I love working with the elephants," Waltz smiled.

Great news for Entourage fans, but also good news for all those celebs who show up here and there on the show. The HBO hit has been home to myriad smokin' guest stars, including Zac Efron, LeBron James, Michael Phelps and even Wahlberg himself, who said he still "always pops up, a little [cameo] here and there."

We don't think it's too soon to be asking about future guest stars for the show or movie, so though maybe we should suggest some possible cameos. Maybe, say...Robert Pattinson? And would they ever bring him on if he was interested?

"Umm, that's the kid from Twilight?" asked Mark. "Yeah. We'll see about that."

Oh, Mr. Wahlberg, you coy little devil! We're certain this isn't the last you'll hear about getting R.Pattz to make a cameo as Vince's next co-star or Ari's erstwhile client.

And hey, since our campaign to get Rob to host Saturday Night Live didn't really pan out, this is definitely a Pattison protest we can get behind!

Robert Pattinson has revealed he had to train to run like a true action hero for new Twilight movie Eclipse.

The 24-year-old Hollywood heartthrob confessed to Reveal magazine his run in the first two Twilight films as brooding vampire Edward Cullen had been a bit weak, so he hit the treadmill.

Robert laughed: "I had to learn how to run properly. In the last two films, I ran in a limp/skip. I had to run more solidly this time so I spent a lot of time on a giant treadmill. It was like one of those things that mice run around in."

Robert also had to brush up on his fighting skills for a scene with new co-star Bryce Dallas Howard, who plays villain Victoria.

The actor admits he used a body double for the most dramatic parts, but movie bosses were still impressed with his action moves.

Robert revealed: "Weirdly, one of the producers told me: 'Wow, you look so enthusiastic in that fight scene. Much more than in any other one in the series'. It's always hard to do stuff with Bryce because she's the gentlest person and is always laughing. And she's afraid of hurting me!"
