Jamie Dornan was never sure Robert Pattinson โfit inโ with him and his friends.
The โBatmanโ actor recently claimed he was always the last to be invited out with the โBelfastโ star and his now-famous housemates โ who included Andrew Garfield, Eddie Redmayne and Charlie Cox โ when they were all trying to make it in America.
However, Jamie insisted they never just offered Robert a โpity inviteโ but rather they were unsure heโd want to hang out with them because he was always busy with acting jobs while the rest of the group were trying to get a big break.
Jamie told โEntertainment Tonightโ: โNo! The pity invite? No I think with Rob itโs always been like, he sort of had success earlier, so we were a bit like, โDoes he really fit in with us?โ
โBecause we were not working and heโs working all the time. He did โTwilightโ and was suddenly in a different stratosphere than us and weโve sort of, not caught up, but we all started working more consistently, but yeah, Jesus, weโve known each other a long time.โ
The 39-year-old actor is still particularly close to โTick,Tickโฆ Boom!โ star Andrew and he was delighted his friend was a fan of his 2021 comedy โBarb and Star Go to Vista Del Marโ.
He said: โHe particularly loves it. He came to it late. Andrewโs one of my best mates. He came to it late. He only saw it for the first time a couple weeks ago, and I know how much he loves it.โ
Jamieโs clarification about Robert comes after the โLighthouseโ actor claimed last month the group used to ask him to hang out with them as an โafterthoughtโ.
He said: โI wasnโt actually roommates. They were all roommates, and I was kind of the last one invited.
โI was invited as an afterthought. Thereโd be like one slice of pizza left and Iโd be like, โIs there any for me?'โ
