A24 Releases Robert Pattinson Character Nesting Dolls

A24 has released a collectible six-piece set of nesting dolls, each featuring a character portrayed by actor Robert Pattinson in films produced by the studio. This unique merchandise traces Pattinson's career trajectory with A24, beginning with his role in the 2014 film 'The Rover' and extending to characters from upcoming 2026 productions.

The nesting dolls are meticulously crafted from 100% linden wood, a material traditionally used for Russian matryoshka dolls due to its fine grain and carvability. The complete set measures 5.75 inches in height, with each of the six dolls representing a distinct character. The act of opening the dolls sequentially offers a journey through Pattinson's diverse filmography since his association with A24.

According to the product listing, the outermost doll represents Chris Hansen from the 2026 film 'Primetime.' In this role, Pattinson portrays the real-life television journalist Chris Hansen, famously known for his 'To Catch a Predator' segments on Dateline. The next doll inward depicts Charlie Thompson from 'The Drama,' a romantic dramedy also slated for release in 2026, which features Zendaya as his co-star.

Further layers of the nesting doll set showcase characters from films that significantly reshaped Pattinson's public image, moving him away from mainstream blockbuster fame towards more auteur-driven projects. These include Ephraim Winslow, who also uses the alias Thomas Howard, from Robert Eggers' 2019 black-and-white psychological thriller 'The Lighthouse,' where Pattinson starred opposite Willem Dafoe. Another character featured is Monte from Claire Denis' 2018 science fiction drama 'High Life,' a film set in deep space aboard a prison transport vessel.

The set also includes Constantine "Connie" Nikas from the Safdie brothers' acclaimed 2017 crime thriller 'Good Time.' This film is widely recognized for its intense pacing and Pattinson's gritty performance. At the innermost core of the nesting doll set is Reynolds "Rey" from David Michôd's 2014 neo-western film 'The Rover.' This collection of characters, spanning from 2014 to 2026, encapsulates a pivotal period in Robert Pattinson's career, marked by his deliberate choice of challenging and artistically driven roles.
