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.
