Robert Pattinson Joins Carey Mulligan in HOLD ON TO ME Thriller

Twilight star Robert Pattinson has been cast along side Carey Mulligan (Drive) in a new kidnapping thriller called Hold On To Me. The movie is being directed by Man on Wire documentary director James Marsh. 

The film is based on a true story "about a femme fatale who with her boyfriend kidnaps and ransoms the town’s richest man. They bury him in a box and things go horribly awry. Pattinson plays the flashy supporting role of the woman’s life love, Jimmy, who isn’t involved in the crime."

Outside of Twilight Pattinson has been taking some really good movie roles, and this sounds like another solid film project for him to work on. Some of the other projects he's involved with are The Rover, starring alongside Guy Pearce; andMission Blacklist, which tells the true story of the U.S. military interrogator responsible for discovering the location of Saddam Hussein.
