He is known for his perfectly coiffed hair and polished set of straight pearly whites. But Robert Pattinson is totally transformed for his new movie The Rover. The 26-year-old has been given a severe make under for the film in which he plays a common criminal. The Hollywood heartthrob revealed a pair of rather nasty rotting teeth as he filmed scenes alongside co-star Guy Pearce in the Australian outback on Tuesday. Robert appears to have been fitted with a pair of false teeth which are discoloured, crooked and cracked. The prosthetic totally transforms the Twilight hunk's look as soon as he opens his mouth in the scenes. The British actor has also shaved his head for the film - his longer auburn tresses completely gone. During his day of filming, Robert was also joined by his body double. The pair were seen wandering around the Adelaide set in the same pair of dirty denim trousers and black printed T-shirt. ===My reaction:Rob's body double(below with hand to head) is a dead ringer from this angle. WOW!! Rob 2.0 indeed.== While Rob's doppelganger is a little more on the muscular side, with his facial hair and shaved head, he is a dead ringer for the star. Throughout the day, Robert was also seen filming some dangerous car ride scenes with Pearce, whom he is said to have formed a close bond with. The plot of the movie tells the story of Eric (Pearce), a lone traveler in the Australian desert who is forced to pursue a ruthless gang of criminals after they steal his car. Along the way, Eric enlists the help of Reynolds ( Pattinson), described as 'the naïve and injured junior member of the gang' who was left behind after a robbery. Dirty: Rob was covered head to toe in dirt for his day of filming. The film is directed by David Michod, who had a big win at Sundance in 2011 with his acclaimed movie Animal Kingdom. Michod wrote the film based on an idea conceived with Joel Edgerton, who stars in Zero Dark Thirty and the upcoming Great Gatsby alongside Leonardo DiCaprio. Pattinson has already filmed several fight scenes for the movie, which is said to feature 'gruelling action'. Bushy: Guy also has been given a make under and was sporting a bushy beard. Shooting, which is taking place in several areas of the Australian outback, is said to be going for seven weeks and is expected to finish in mid-March, according to Variety. Balancing act: Stunt doubles drive a car on it's side in scenes for the action-packed movie Creepy: An extra is tied to a cross with a hessian bag over their head in other scenes Rest stop: The co-stars also film inside an outback cafe Run down town: A deteriorating building is also part of the set. Meanwhile, while Robert is filming in Australia, his on and off girlfriend Kristen Stewart has been filling up her time without her boyfriend by hanging with her Hollywood pals. Recently the perennially glum star struggled once again to crack a smile as she went out to dinner with her friends. With her beau out of town filming, Kristen joined a group of friends for a birthday celebration. While Kristen was largely surrounded by male friends, this time around Rob has nothing to worry about - as one was his best friend Marcus Foster. The group included the Twilight star, the English singer and his bandmate Jack Standon as well as Kristen's best friend - and reported birthday girl - Scout Compton. Staying low key, the friends celebrated at En Sushi in Los Feliz, which is just near Kristen and Rob's home. A source told Hollywoodlife.com: 'They were celebrating a friend’s birthday and sang Happy Birthday to her. 'They all shared the hot chocolate cake. 'Kristen was very nice and sweet. Her friends were also very nice.' According to the source the unassuming sushi restaurant has been a date night spot for Kristen and Rob before. 'Kristen has been here before with Robert Pattinson but he has not been here for quite some time,' the source said. ==== Source: Dailymail UK
