Robert
Pattinson's
role
of
a
corrupt
journalist
in
the
upcoming
film
Bel
Ami
has
become
a
reason
to
worry
for
the
makers
of
the
film.
They
feel
that
his
portrayal
in
the
film
may
not
go
well
with
a
section
of
people.
Robert
Pattinson
plays
a
unethical
journalist
in
Bel
Ami.
His
character
in
the
film
manipulates
his
way
by
seducing
a
rich
women
to
reach
the
top
position.
The
makers
of
the
film
are
sceptic
about
the
market,
as
they
are
not
sure
about
how
fans
would
accept
him
in
this
role.
Especially
female
fans,
who
love
to
see
him
in
good
characters,
may
not
like
the
actor
doing
baddie's
role.
The
actor
has
also
expressed
the
same
on
his
role
in
Bel
Ami.
He
has
said
that
they
have
done
complete
justice
to
the
novel.
He
said:
“We
were
really
true
to
the
book
and
because
the
guy
is
basically
a
s**t
who
wins
everything
at
the
end
it"s
really
difficult
to
market
it
–
especially
with
me
in
it",
reports
the
Contactmusic.
However,
the
movie
features
Uma
Thurman,
Christina
Ricci
and
Kristen
Scott
Thomas
in
the
key
roles.
The
movie
is
directed
by
Declan
Donnellan
and
Nick
Ormerod.
It
is
produced
by
Simon
Fuller
and
distributed
by
Optimum
Releasing.
