From a vampire in the ‘Twilight’ films to the Dark Knight in ‘The Batman,’ for Robert Pattinson, it’s been quite a ride. The charm that this actor adds to his roles is unprecedented, be it as a fantasy character with supernatural powers, an intellectual person with knowledge of entropy, or a dark, brooding figure hanging from the ceiling. His recent filmography proves that he is one of the most underrated top-tier actors in Hollywood.
The recipient of various awards and nominations, notably two People’s Choice Awards, ten MTV Movie Awards, an Australian Academy Award nomination, and a Canadian Screen Award nomination, among others, he is just waiting in the wings for the Oscars. And with an asteroid named after him (246789 Pattinson by Russian astronomer Timur Kryachko), it is only a matter of time before he owns up to it by becoming one of the most popular stars in Hollywood. So, if you want to know what the actor has in store, here are his upcoming projects!
1. Die My Love (November 7, 2025)
Currently undergoing post-production, ‘Die My Love’ is a horror comedy helmed by Lynne Ramsay. Adapted from Ariana Harwicz’s eponymous book, the story centers on a woman whose struggle with motherhood at her countryside home has resulted in psychosis. The dilemmas of wanting to be alone but wanting to be embraced, wanting a family but burning the house down, have resulted in an ever-increasing erratic behavior. Will she be saved? Pattinson will star in the film alongside Jennifer Lawrence, Nick Nolte, Sissy Spacek, and LaKeith Stanfield. Ramsay has co-written the adapted screenplay with Enda Walsh. The film had its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in May 2025 and will be released on November 7, 2025.

Pattinson will star in Christopher Nolan’s upcoming epic fantasy-action drama ‘The Odyssey.’ Production is underway in Greece. The film has been adapted by Nolan from Greek poet Homer’s eponymous epic poem. The story follows Odysseus on his perilous journey home after the Trojan War, showcasing his encounters with Polyphemus, the Sirens, and Circe, and finishing with his reunion with his wife, Penelope. The stellar cast also includes Matt Damon (Odysseus, Greek king of Ithaca), Anne Hathaway, Zendaya, Tom Holland, Charlize Theron, Lupita Nyong’o, Jon Bernthal, Mia Goth, Cosmo Jarvis, Elliot Page, Ryan Hurst, and John Leguizamo.

A sequel to Matt Reeves’ live-action superhero movie ‘The Batman’, ‘The Batman Part II’ is also directed by Reeves.
