Twilight star Robert Pattinson is way more attractive to girls thanHarry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe. At least that’s what Radcliffe, 19, says about his former Harry Potter co-star Rob, 22.

In 2005, Daniel worked with Pattinson when Rob played Cedric Diggory inHarry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. At the time, the self-deprecating Rob stated in several interviews that Radcliffe was cooler and more attractive to the opposite sex than he was.

“[Daniel Radcliffe is] just so far superior to me in terms of desirability,” Pattinson said in 2005. “If I was Katie [Leung, who played Harry Potter's love interest Cho Chang in Goblet of Fire], I would definitely go out with [Daniel] because he’s rich and famous, and I’m not really…I think Dan could steal anyone from me. If I were a girl, I’d pick Dan.”

Recently, Radcliffe had the chance to respond to Rob’s comments in this exchange fromTheDailyBeast:

  

Question: “Have you contacted your co-star Robert Pattinson to give him any advice about his own sudden fame because of the Twilight films? He was once quoted as saying that if given a choice between himself and you, that girls would choose you every time.”

Daniel Radcliffe: “I don’t have his number, so haven’t spoken to him. But I can safely say that his insisting that girls would choose me over him that they would not. That they do not. He is much prettier and can be much more charming…And he can do that thing of being sultry and sexy…Rob can just sort of stand there and look at something and start to smolder. And I just can’t do that.”

Rob also recently commended his former Harry Potter co-stars Daniel, Rupert Grint, 20, and Emma Watson, 18, for having turned out so well-adjusted despite the pressures of fame and overnight stardom.

“The Harry Potter people…are still very, very normal and sane,” says Pattinson. “I think it’s because they just ignored the surrealness of their lives from an outside perspective and live their lives normally. They didn’t treat anyone any differently and didn’t treat themselves differently. And they’ve ended up being completely fine.”

Meanwhile, Rob—who has been relaxing in London since Dec. 22—will begin filming New Moon (the sequel to Twilight) in March. The movie will be shot back-to-back with Eclipse (2010), the third installment in the best-selling Twi book series.

New Moon comes out in November 2009.
