Twilight heartthrob Robert Pattinson gets very cozy with his co-star blonde bombshell Reese Witherspoon on the set of Water for Elephants as the pair shot scenes in Los Angeles, CA on July 2, 2010. In between takes the two flirtatiously laughed and joked with each other before leaning in for a dramatic kiss scene that is sure to make any rumored girlfriends/boyfriends of the actors at least a little nervous! Fame Pictures, IncRobert Pattinson has revealed what it’s like to work with all the animals on the set of Water For Elephants.

‘Almost everyday I am working with an exotic animal,’ Rob explained to Celebs Sunday, ‘there are scenes where I am leading buffalo and elephants into cages.’

Rob even spoke about being bitten by a lion – however, it had no teeth.

‘It’s insane, like I got bitten on the arm by a lion with no teeth. They were like, “It’s fine, he does it all the time.” And I was like, “Erm, OK…”‘

‘But they had to get him to do it harder, because he was being so gentle and just licking my arm.’
