Robert Pattinson in Talks to Join Jennifer Lawrence in Psychological Thriller ‘Die, My Love’

In a major development for film enthusiasts, Robert Pattinson is reportedly in discussions to star alongside Jennifer Lawrence in the upcoming psychological thriller, ‘Die, My Love,’ directed by Lynne Ramsay. This collaboration will mark the first on-screen pairing of the two acclaimed actors.

Sources from Deadline reveal that ‘Die, My Love’ is set in a remote rural area and follows the harrowing journey of a mother struggling with psychosis and trying to maintain her grip on reality. The exact character Pattinson will portray remains undisclosed as negotiations are still ongoing.

The film’s screenplay is penned by Lynne Ramsay in collaboration with Enda Walsh. It will be produced under the banners of Justine Ciarrocchi and Jennifer Lawrence’s Excellent Cadaver, along with Martin Scorsese and Andrea Calderwood. Black Label Media is providing financial backing for the project.

Robert Pattinson, who received critical acclaim for his lead role in Matt Reeves’ ‘The Batman’, is also set to star in Bong Joon Ho’s highly anticipated ‘Mickey 17,’ scheduled for release next year. Meanwhile, Jennifer Lawrence continues to expand her creative footprint with A24, as the acclaimed studio announced her involvement in the upcoming adaptation of Paul B Rainey’s graphic novel ‘Why Don’t You Love Me?’

Lawrence will not only star in the film but also serve as a producer. This announcement marks A24’s latest collaboration with Lawrence following their joint venture on ‘The Wives,’ a Real Housewives-inspired murder mystery co-produced with Apple Studios.

‘Why Don’t You Love Me?’ is based on Rainey’s 2023 graphic novel, which explores the comedic complexities of a couple navigating relationship challenges while grappling with surreal elements in their reality. The adaptation will be penned by Robert Funke, known for his work on the dark comedy series ‘On Becoming a God in Central Florida.’

Producers for ‘Why Don’t You Love Me?’ include Lawrence and Justine Ciarrocchi for Excellent Cadaver, alongside Ari Aster, Lars Knudsen, and Emily Hildner for Square Peg, in collaboration with A24. Rainey himself will serve as an executive producer.

Lawrence’s recent career highlights include a Golden Globe nomination for her role in Sony’s ‘No Hard Feelings.’ Her recent projects with Apple Studios also include the documentary ‘Bread & Roses,’ where she served as a producer, shedding light on the experiences of Afghan women under Taliban rule.
