[from an article in The Times]

Young, gifted and soon at a cinema near you. In The Times today, a list of the British stars of tomorrow includes a young actor Harry Potter fans are about to get to know a lot better.

ROBERT PATTINSON

With no big-screen experience, Robert Pattinson beat a host of other actors to the part of Hogwarts head boy and all-round good guy Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, due out this year. His only other screen work was in the TV film Sword of Xanten, broadcast in America last year.

Robert Pattinson as Cedric Diggory

This fresh-faced, photogenic 18-year-old so oozes charm and likeability that casting directors are predicting a big future. Despite his initiation via Harry Potter, Pattinson cites Tim Burton and Todd Solondz as directors he admires for "breaking boundaries".
