Robert Pattinson's 'Water for Elephants' wraps filming

'Water for Elephants' by Sara Gruen

Robert Pattinson's Water For Elephants has just wrapped filming, according to director Francis Lawrence's Twitter page. Until yesterday, production was ongoing in Chattanooga, Tennessee, but Robert Pattinson's portion of filming ended on August 3rd.
While he was in town for the film, there were a few stories about fan encounters with the actor around town, including this one in which a young lady was able to get a few minutes one-on-one with the actor.
Two young boys from the area got the chance to be a part of the picture itself, cast as character "Jacob Jankowski's" sons for the film (see the video below).
All accounts of Pattinson's time in Chattanooga say that he was gracious to the town for their patronage and "very sweet" to people who got to speak with him.
Water For Elephants also stars Reese Witherspoon, Christoph Waltz, and Hal Holbrook, and a release date for the picture has been set for April 15, 2011.
The film is based on Sarah Gruen's best-selling novel of the same name, and Pattinson portrays the main character of the story and the eyes through which the events of Water For Elephants are seen.
This film should serve as a wonderful platform for Pattinson, much like his work in the Twilight series.
