Robert Pattinson refuses to be typecast. Crowned “one of the last movie stars” by The New York Times, he’s mastered the art of defying expectations. Since his start as a heartthrob in the Twilight era, Pattinson’s gone off the grid, only to re-emerge in every type of leading role imaginable—from the blockbuster hero in The Batman to the art-house eccentric in The Lighthouse, and the unhinged antihero in Good Time. This spring, the actor will show us yet another side of himself in Mickey 17, a satirical science-fiction feature from Parasite’s Bong Joon-ho. Otherwise, Pattinson has been gravitating toward stability, with 12 years as the ambassador for Dior Homme and a cozy family life with Suki Waterhouse and their baby daughter. To toast the launch of the new fragrance, Dior Homme Parfum, a warm and sensual re-interpretation of the classic, 20-year-old Dior Homme, Pattinson shares his highly organized and carefully structured nighttime routine.
When do you start getting ready for bed?
I’m becoming more and more of a lame ass—it’s getting earlier and earlier. Like 9 or 10 P.M.? I used to be fine with five or six hours of sleep, and now I’m … not … at all.
