The GQ June 2020 issue not only features Robert Pattinson but a cover and photoshoot images that were captured by the actor himself. There's usually a great team that comes together to create the magazine covers people are used to seeing but the pandemic has put limitations on the way publications are able to safely capture images of their cover star. For the issue, Pattinson was interviewed by FaceTime and took his own photos using a self-timer.
The issue provides a look into Pattinson's current life in isolation now that filming has stopped for The Batman. In the interview conducted by writer Zach Baron, Pattinson shared some of his latest ideas, like microwavable pasta that could be held like a burger.
