From our Affiliate Bel Ami Uk:

Here’s the most recent update regarding Bel Ami’s UK promotion direct from our official source:

“Regarding officially released movie stills: there will be more but not for a few months as the film is way off being finished. The same is true of the promotional poster. Once these items become available they will certainly send them to us. There is currently no fixed time scale for the release of this info.

Our official sources are very hopeful there will be a UK premiere, however a date has yet to be set for this. Once more info is clarified they will pass it on to us.

There is still no distributor for the 3 remaining areas.

Moviegoers are used to seeing Robert Pattinson onscreen as the most-stand up vampire around. But Christina Ricci warns that’s going to end very soon.



Pattinson and Ricci both completed “Bel Ami” which Pattinson plays a young man rising to power in Paris using the city’s most influential and wealthy women.



“The world is used to seeing him one way, and he’s very, very different in this movie,” Ricci tells PopcornBiz from the Blackberry Torch from AT&T launch party, “But he’s an actor, that’s what it’s about. And he’s really great in this.”



Pattinson, who somehow has managed to stay a faithful and sexless through three “Twilight” films, works his way through Parisian society in “Bel Ami.” At the press conference during the “Eclipse” release, Pattinson gleefully talked about his “Bel Ami” character Georges Duroy who he called “a completely amoral, evil character.”

“He seduces his wife and seduces absolutely every single one of his wife’s friends. Any influential woman he can get he has an affair with,” said Pattison. “And then ends up screwing over the entire society and ends up making millions and millions of francs.”

Pattinson taps into some serious actresses in Ricci and Uma Thurman. His Duroy is such a cad that he not only dumps Ricci once, but several times as he rises to the top.

“We have an on-off relationship through the whole movie and I get my heart broken a few times,” says Ricci.



And does she handle her onscreen heartbreaks with less drama than Pattinson’s co-star Kristen Stewart who famously went through vampire withdrawal during “New Moon” in a big way?



“Yes, I do,” she admits. “But there’s a little screaming, but that’s par for the course for a relationship.”

While filming is complete, no official release date has not been set for “Bel Ami,” — though it looks to hit US screens in the spring of next year.

Folks who prefer the nice Rob won’t have to wait long. Pattinson will be back to his filming his faithful vampire character, Edward Cullen, in the fall for the final two “Twilight” installments.

Christina Ricci stars alongside Robert Pattinson in the upcoming film Bel Ami, and recently gushed about her co-star calling him, “a great guy.”

“He’s such a dedicated actor,” she told OnTheRedCarpet.com about working with the Twilight Saga star. “It’s fun to work with someone who is genuinely not jaded and who loves films.”

The two apparently had a lot of fun on set as well. “He’s so sweet and funny and we make fun of each other and laugh. We’re silly together. We just really had a good time,” Ricci said.

In Bel Ami, a film based off a novel of the same name. Pattinson plays Georges Duroy, a womanizing Parisian. The British actor is a bit of a movie buff according to Ricci. “He’s surprisingly a huge cinephile,” she said.

At last night’s Blackberry Torch launch in L.A., Christina Ricci couldn’t contain her feelings for her Bel Ami co-star Robert Pattinson. “We would just goof off and laugh while we were working—he’s a sweet guy and super funny…and a really good kisser!” she told us. And what was her favorite part of filming? “The costumes, the makeup and… Rob!” But Ricci admitted she hasn’t even seen the films that are responsible for his fame. “I was waiting for [The Twilight Saga films] to be on TV because the theaters were so crowded, but there’s no excuse!” Ricci also said it’s easy to understand why Kristen Stewart, who stopped by the set several times, is so smitten with her Twilight and real-life co-star Pattinson: “He’s so charming and such a smart guy. He’s so super organized and in charge of his career. He was actually giving me advice!” the veteran actress said.

From eonline:

We had a chance to catch up with one of our fave actresses since forevah, Christina Ricci—who dished to us about her upcoming  flick Bel Ami with Robert Pattinson. Like how steamy their loves scenes got and how R.Pattz had a special lady we all know and love come and visit him on set. Let the dishing begin!

“It was really fun, I mean just aesthetically we wore amazing costumes and hair and make up was great,” Ricci told us at the fab party about her new flick. “And working with Rob was amazing. He’s such a great guy, so talented.”

You romance Robert Pattinson in ‘Bel Ami’ – how was that?
“I’m glad i had worked with him before [on 'The Bad Mothers Handbook'] because he was just Robert, he hasn’t changed, had i not, I’d have felt a bit intimidated. There were hundreds of screaming girls everywhere. Even at 5 o’clock in the morning.

Our amazing Elite Affiliates at RobertPattinsonAustralia did some searching and got the following news regarding ‘Bel Ami’:

There has been some rumours floating around that Bel-Ami may have limited release in some countries in November 2010.  Well don’t get too excited because I’m about to tell you that it’s not happening in Australia.  I had confirmation from Hopscotch Films today that they haven’t heard about this and in any case, they are the Australian distributors and they have no plans to release this film in 2010 – even in limited form.  Sorry, I know it’s not what you want to hear, but at least you know not to get your hopes up.  Please don’t bombard Hopscotch with pleas, petitions or whatever it is that you might think will work.  This film  is slated to be released in 2011 - end of story – you just have to all be patient.  It’s not like Georges isn’t going to be worth the wait.  Of course, as soon as we receive confirmation of the 2011 release date, we will be letting you know.
