Pattinson made a surprise appearance at CinemaCon in Las Vegas in April to preview the movie, sharing what attracted him to the project.

"I've been the biggest fan of Bong for many, many years; he's my hero," Pattinson said at the event, according to Entertainment Weekly. "I got sent the script; I was told, 'You're gonna love the script, but the part is impossible.' That was very, very exciting to me. I thought it was the most unusual, bizarre, funny script."

The Batman actor also expressed his excitement for playing "two very fun characters."

"Mickey 17 is someone who has the lowest expectations of his life, and yet the world keeps pushing those expectations, to the point where he has a job that tortures him every day. And then 18 comes along, and he's got frontal lobe damage and no self-control, libido out of control," he said of the titular character. "It's like playing an evil brother or twin."

Mickey 17 is in theaters on Jan. 31.
