The world has seen Robert Pattinson grow from wizard to vampire to superhero — but audiences still don't quite know what to make of him. Is he a brilliant actor, or just a good-looking guy who lucked into his career? While he's gotten a lot of hate for some performances, notably being nominated for multiple Razzies for worst actor, he's also received many positive reviews and accolades. CBR has noted that it's only a matter of time before he is nominated for an Oscar.

Ask Pattinson, though, and he'll say he's been walking on thin ice for much of his career. "I mean, I was still in school and I really was just sort of stumbling into things," he told W Magazine of his early career. "I couldn't believe I was getting any of the stuff I was getting. I didn't understand how it was happening ... it took me a long time to really feel like I was a part of it or knew how I could add to anything in any way. I thought I was scamming everybody for years."

Pattinson has revealed anxiety over his career before, telling The Guardian in 2019 that he's not very confident in his acting skills. "I only know how to play scenes, like, three ways," he said. "I'm nervous on, like, every single movie." He insisted he's making things up as he goes along, saying, "I don't really know how to act."
