Robert Pattinson has talked about the “addictive” nature of working on several films simultaneously, having starred in several of this year’s most highly anticipated productions, despite recently becoming a father for the first time.

“Once you get the momentum going, it’s strangely not that hard,” said Pattinson at the Venice film festival. “Once you start spinning plates, it gets quite addictive.”
