Robert Pattinson has landed a new gig as the new face of Dior Homme, which the fashion house has finally confirmed after many rounds of rumors. He joins Charlize Theron, Jude Law, Alain Delon and Natalie Portman as faces of Dior’s fragrances.
The rumors first circulated last year, but Dior would not confirm hiring him until now.
Vogue UK reports photographer Nan Goldin shot the campaign and Romain Gavras filmed it.
Dior said in a statement, "The House of Dior is delighted to announce that actor Robert Pattinson is to be the new face of Dior Homme fragrance. He has since proven the scope of his acting talents by choosing films as varied as Remember Me ..., Water for Elephants ... in which he starred alongside Reese Witherspoon, or with his role as Bel-Ami, the famous Maupassant character,” USA Today reports.
They added, "Today we are excited to announce that he will join the privileged circle of Dior faces. ... This new Dior Homme communication campaign is currently broadcast exclusively in Europe (except U.K.) and Asia (except China and Japan)."
Photos from the campaign have been leaked to one of his fansites, but they’re blurry and definitely not official.
Pattinson, who split with his Twilight co-star Kristen Stewart in April, reportedly signed a $12 million, three-year deal with Dior.
