Carrey: 'I'm here for Robert Pattinson'

WENN

Jim Carrey has joked that he is in the UK to "drive a stake through Robert Pattinson's heart".

Discussing whether he has any darker tendencies akin to Ebenezer Scrooge, who he portrays in the forthcoming adaptation of Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol, Carrey suggested that he is angry about the danger Twilight star Pattinson poses to the public.

Carrey said: "I'm generally a live and let live sort of person, but I have to tell you I'm not only here to help present this film, but to drive a stake through Robert Pattinson's heart. He is the undead, people. Nosferatu!"

Carrey's A Christmas Carol opens in cinemas this Friday, while latest Twilight instalment New Moon arrives on November 20.
