The Australian star of Lost plays the enviable role of Robert Pattinson's lover in Remember Me .
Emilie De Ravin has achieved a kind of fame of late and it has nothing to do with her successful run on Lost. It’s all about a certain steamy scene in Remember Me; a romantic drama in which she showers, er, stars with Robert Pattinson. Yes, that Robert Pattinson: Kristen Stewart’s squeeze, Reese Witherspoon’s flirty boy, and for a time, De Ravin’s rumoured lover.
De Ravin readily admits they go to know each other “inside and out” preparing for the film. “We really got to know each other as people,” she says. “We spoke about relationships, love, everything and I think that helped us in developing our characters.”
Remember Me is set in Manhattan in the summer of 2001. De Ravin’s Ally meets the sombre and sensitive Tyler (Pattinson). Both have had their share of recent tragedies and their journey to love is difficult. Pierce Brosnan and Chris Cooper star as their fathers. The subject matter was tough but De Ravin says working with that cast on that film was a career highlight. “It was so beautiful. I'd get back home and be emotionally drained; you do feel like these things actually happened to you.”
