The actor\u2019s filmography spans his breakout roles in the \u201cTwilight\u201d and \u201cHarry Potter\u201d franchises to more eclectic fare like Robert Eggers\u2019 \u201cThe Lighthouse\u201d; \u201cGood Time,\u201d from Josh and Benny Safdie; Bong Joon Ho\u2019s \u201cMickey 17\u201d; \u201cDie, My Love\u201d with Jennifer Lawrence; and Nolan\u2019s \u201cTenet.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cRob is the perfect choice to receive this award and join our esteemed list of artists who not only love cinema but continue to have a deep impact on our industry,\u201d Nicita continued. \u201cWe are thrilled that his filming schedule has allowed us the opportunity to recognize his exceptional contributions to film and we look forward to celebrating his continued achievements.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tPattinson joins a distinguished group of honorees including Michael B.
