Casting Rumor: Robert Pattinson to Star in CHILD 44

November 2, 2011

Summit is out to directors for an adaptation of Tom Rob Smith’s crime drama CHILD 44.  The project was originally set up at Fox 2000, with Ridley Scott directing.  But while they may not have a director yet, they do have a star, according to what we’re hearing.  And that star is none other than Robert Pattinson, the beloved Edward in Summit’s TWILIGHT franchise.  RPat would play Leo, a strong-willed former member of the Soviet state police who investigates a series of child killins that are being covered up by the very group he used to lead.  It’s pretty different fare for the teen heartthrob, but it’ll give him a good excuse to stretch his acting chops.
