“And then when we were talking about it, as we prepped for it, I think I just went home, and then how that kind of went into my head was to do Steve Buscemi as 17, but I kind of did it by accident, but I don’t think I realised that until today.

Pattinson is best known for playing vampire Edward Cullen in the Twilight film series, Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire, Connie Nikas in Good Times, and Bruce Wayne in The Batman.

One of his clones, Mickey 17, is incorrectly assumed dead, and the previous and current version, Mickey 18, have to grapple with the idea of being expendable.

Robert Pattinson has said he based his Mickey 17 accent on the voice of Steve Buscemi “by accident”.

In the sci-fi film, directed by Bong Joon-ho, the Twilight actor, 38, plays Mickey Barnes, whose body is continually regenerated after he dies while undertaking dangerous work assignments.
