Robert Pattinson is known for his dedication to acting, having chosen challenging and controversial roles to distance himself from his breakout role in the Twilight movies.

His latest film, The Lighthouse, directed by Robert Eggers, is a black-and-white story of two men’s descent into madness.

Stories emerging from the set of the film indicate Pattinson’s dedication to acting knows no limits, even involving bodily fluids.

On the very first day of shooting, Pattinson had a masturbation scene in the shed, which set the tone for the rest of the film.

Pattinson has had a streak of masturbation scenes in his recent movies, which he acknowledges.

He has had scenes in High Life, Damsel, The Devil All the Time, and now The Lighthouse.

He even went method for some sequences in The Lighthouse; his character drinks heavily, and so he would get blackout drunk to the point of passing out and even urinating on himself.

To make himself throw up convincingly, Pattinson reportedly ate mud off the ground, and his co-star, Willem Dafoe, confirmed that Pattinson sticks his own fingers down his throat to make himself cry on demand.

Dafoe said, “He wants to throw himself into deep water and he feels like it will only be true if he’s drowning.

“For me, that seemed wacky. But I’m not trying to judge.

“He has a good sense of the visual, of what’s needed in a close-up.

“Sometimes he’d beat himself up so bad.

“He’d stick his fingers down his throat, things like that.”

Pattinson has made quite an impression on the set of The Lighthouse, with his dedication to his craft.

Director Robert Eggers was impressed by Pattinson’s masturbation scene, saying, “It’s the very first thing we shot, and Rob really, really went for it…And you know, it was inspiring.” Pattinson himself acknowledged his streak of masturbation scenes, saying, “I keep masturbating.”

“I did it in High Life. I did it in Damsel. And The Devil All the Time.

“I only realized when I did it the fourth time.”
