Hollywood star Robert Pattinson is teaming up with `Parasite` director Bong Joon Ho for an upcoming sci-fi film with Warner Bros. The filmmaker will write and direct a yet untitled film, with Pattinson in talks to star, reports hollywoodreporter.com. The project will be based on `Mickey7`, a forthcoming novel from author Edward Ashton.
`Mickey7` is described as Andy Wier`s The Martian meets Blake Crouch`s Dark Matter. It centers on Mickey7, a man on an expedition to colonize the ice world Niflheim. This expendable employee takes jobs too risky for anyone else, and when he dies, he regenerates as a clone with most of his memories intact.
