Robert Pattinson Had 'No Idea What Was Going On' During 'Twilight'
In an interview with Numero Homme, the actor opened up on what it was like moving on from the Twilight series, which also happened to be around the same time his relationship with co-star Kristen Stewart ended. Even though Pattinson might be known as the actress's ex or as his iconic character Edward Cullen, he's still doing what he can to explore what else could be in his range.
"I imagine the audience kept a certain image of me," he said via Monday's report from Gossip Cop. "I always feel like I have to prove myself. I did not have enough lead roles to make the people forget about it or to see me any differently. Waiting for that, I follow my path, with the constant reminder to diversify myself."

Being a part of Twilight changed Pattinson's personal and professional life where he had to really take time to process what was going on.
"I had a chaotic progression, with moments of explosions," the actor said. "It took years to digest what happened to me, the movies' success, the celebrity...[Before] I did not have a career's plan, not particular ambition. I had to create them from time to time."
Stewart and Pattinson called it quits in 2012 and the actor is now reportedly engaged to singer FKA Twigs.
