Christina Ricci Calls Robert Pattinson a Lovely Individual

Was Broad way always part of your plan?

No, I had ter ri ble stage fright, so peo ple even tu ally stopped bring ing it up. But when I was com ing back from mak ing Bel Ami with Robert Pat tin son, my agent, who also rep re sents Laura Lin ney, asked me if I wanted to read for Time Stands Still, and I com pletely for got I had stage fright. Lit­er ally, walk ing home from the audi tion, I was like, Oh, shit, I just remem bered I hate act ing in front of peo ple. So now I’m sort of ignor ing it.

I love how casu ally you just name dropped R-Patz. Are you a Twi light fan?

OK, first of all, pub li cists train you to say your cred its along with your costars. You can’t be shy about self-promotion; it’s like Kathy Grif fin or some thing. [Laughs] I’m a very lazy pop cul ture fan—if it involves leav ing my liv ing room, I’m pretty clueless—so I’ve never seen a sin gle Twi light movie, and I guess I missed it when it was on Starz. But Rob’s a lovely individual.

Do you two share a love scene in Bel Ami?

We do. But he’s like your best friend’s lit tle brother, so we would just laugh and make fun of each other the entire time. He thought it was out ra geous how com fort able I was being naked. I was like, “That’s because I’m 20 years older than you.” Seri ously, I’ve never felt so old in my entire life.
