Robert Pattinson Lands New Role In Upcoming Film From Bong Joon Ho

Robert Pattinson has landed a new role! The actor is set to star in director Bong Joon Ho’s upcoming untitled film project based on Edward Ashton’s upcoming novel Mickey7.

According to Deadline, “the novel’s story follows, Mickey7, is an Expendable: a disposable employee on a human expedition sent to colonize the ice world Niflheim. Whenever there’s a mission that’s too dangerous—even suicidal—the crew turns to Mickey. After one iteration dies, a new body is regenerated with most of his memories intact. After six deaths, Mickey7 understands the terms of his deal…and why it was the only colonial position unfilled when he took it.”

Whether or not Bong Joon Ho’s adaptation will remain faithful to the book is now question.
