Earlier this week, we learned that casting for Summit Entertainment's newest Robert Pattinson picture (Remember Me) had taken place - pinning Chris Cooper, Pierce Brosnan, and Emilie de Raven alongside Pattinson for the picture. Now we know, it seems, that Pierce Brosnan will appear in the film as Pattinson's father.
Like father like son? Let's take a look.
Well, firstly, they do have the look - tall, handsome, cunning. Secondly, they're both from the U.K., so they have that charming British accent. Though, it must be said, Brosnan was born in Ireland whilst Pattinson was born in London. Both are Tauruses (Brosnan's birthday is May 16th while Pattinson's is May 13th), and both have taken on leading roles in major book-to-film franchises (what with Brosnan's portrayal of James Bond in GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies, and The World Is Not Enough and Pattinson's work in Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire, Twilight, The Twilight Saga: New Moon, and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse).
Finally, they have both been rightfully selected on People's Most Beautiful List(s), with Brosnan being put on both the 1991 and 1996 lists and Pattinson being selected this year.
So, I ask you, is this a perfect father/son match-up? Comment below and let us know!
