Robert Pattinson is to be immortalised in wax.

The ‘Twilight’ actor is the latest star to be honoured with his own waxwork by famous museum Madame Tussauds and his figure will be unveiled in both the New York and London branches.

Artist Luke Fisher is keen to give the statues a true resemblance and has received a lot of help from other members of staff.

Madame Tussauds said: “They have been studying hundreds of photos and pouring through hours of video to ensure that they capture R-Pattz’s trademark sultry expression and inimitable style.”

Robert follows in the footsteps of a host of stars to have been immortalised in wax including Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, Marilyn Monroe and David and Victoria Beckham.

The waxworks will give fans on both sides of the Atlantic a rare chance to get close to the heartthrob as he recently revealed he hides from his followers because he finds the attention hard to deal with.

He said: “You are trying to limit the amount of time you have to deal with it. I do a bit of hiding.”
