Richard Gere Talks About Meeting Robert Pattinson: “He Was a Perfectly Nice Guy.”

Richard Gere talked about recently meeting Robert Pattinson! Read on below . . .

From E!Online:

Robert Pattinson met Richard Gere on Friday when he attended a luncheon in honor of the silver-haired actor’s awards buzzy film, Arbitrage, at Osteria Mozza in Los Angeles. (If you missed it, you can see pics of them HERE!)

But what you may not know is that Gere didn’t exactly realize how major the Twilight star was.

“He was a perfectly nice guy, but I had no idea,” Gere told me at the Governors Awards. “But I was getting calls from my wife going, ‘What are you doing with him? He’s so cute, but what are you doing with him?’”

So Gere’s better half, model-actress Carey Lowell, is a Twi-hard?!

“My wife is aware of these things,” Gere laughed. “I don’t know that she’s a fan.”
