Robert Pattinson has spoken about his struggles with mental health on film sets, revealing that he nearly had a breakdown over a dance scene in Lynne Ramsay’s upcoming psychological drama “Die, My Love”. The actor, who stars alongside Jennifer Lawrence in the movie, was overcome by anxiety when faced with the challenge of dancing to music without any prior choreography.
In an interview with GQ, Pattinson shared that he had previously experienced similar mental health issues while filming A24’s “The Drama”, opposite Zendaya. He said that Zendaya helped him to calm his nerves by telling him to simply say a line and stop overthinking the hidden meaning behind their scene. Pattinson described how this conversation with Zendaya helped him to regain his composure and focus on the task at hand.
Pattinson’s struggles with mental health have been well-documented in recent years, with the actor having spoken publicly about his anxiety and depression. His openness about his experiences is a testament to his commitment to using his platform to raise awareness and reduce stigma around mental health issues.
Both “The Drama” and “Die, My Love” are currently without release dates, but fans of Pattinson’s work can look forward to seeing him on screen again in the near future.
