Robert Pattinson Makes The Crowd Go Wild At The Cannes Film Festival

There's no denying it -- the press love Robert Pattinson! He may not be promoting Twilight this time around -- but the media still can't get enough of RPatz! Clearly, the photogs are Team Edward!

Accompanied by Aussie star Guy Pearce, the hunky Brit made the shutterbugs go wild at the photocall for his new film, The Rover, during the 67th Cannes Film Festival on Sunday. The film had its premiere out of competition at the Midnight screening later that day.

The Rover is set in the dystopian Australian Outback and follows a violent and angry former soldier, played by Pearce, who had lost his farm and his family and goes after a gang who stole his car. Pattinson plays a naive southern American man who has been been left behind in an attack.

Pattinson is having a busy trip to Cannes -- he's promoting not one but two films during the French film fest. Earlier today, Kristen Stewart's former flame posed for photogs at the photocall for his other movie, Maps to the Stars, along with castmates John Cusack, Julianne Moore, David Cronenberg, Mia Wasikowska and Sarah Gadon.
