Depending on how your feel about Robert Pattinson, you'll either be bummed  or relieved at this news. 

The star of the Twilight films and the upcoming, brutal, post-apocalypse road movie The Rover, says there's no truth behind talk that he'll pick up both a bullwhip and a blaster for roles as a young IndianaJones and a young Han Solo in future prequels. 

At the U.S. premiere for The Rover, Pattinson told People "I don't know why. Why is that coming out?" he said about the Indiana Jones role. "I honestly don't understand what it's all about. Man, I wish!" 

As for Han Solo, he was equally taken aback, saying "I didn't even know there was a Han Solo spinoff coming out. Sounds like a cool spinoff. I'll watch it." 

The Rover, which is set a decade after a current economic collapse and sees Pattinson doing a 180-degree turn from his days as a vampire, is currently in limited release.
