Robert Pattinson is set to join forces with Robert De Niro for new film Idol's Eye.
Idol's Eye will mark the first time that Pattinson has worked with the Oscar winner, while Olivier Assayas is in the director's chair.
Assayas' current film Cloud of Sils Maria has just played at the Cannes Film Festival, but this will be his next project.
While the plot is currently being kept a close guarded secret, it has been described as a sophisticated, heist action/thriller.
Benaroya Picture are on board to produce and finance the film, and shooting is expected to get underway in October.
We haven't seen Pattinson on the big screen since The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2, but he will be starring in The Rover and Maps to the Stars later this year.
The actor has also completed work on Queen of the Desert and Life: in which he will play photographer Dennis Stock.
As for De Niro, he has already starred in Grudge Match and American Hustle this year.
