From vampire, to elephant tamer to ruthless military hard*ss, Robert Pattinson is proving that he really can do it all.

According to sources, the 25-year-old actor has signed on to the military thriller Mission: Blacklist, about the capture and subsequent interrogation of former Iraqi president, Sadam Hussein.

Aw man, haven’t we seen enough lighthearted romantic comedies already this year?

The film’s producer Ross M. Dinerstein assures audiences that this film will be a far cry from Pattinson’s days portraying the often sappily romantic, Edward Cullen.

This movie is a gripping, edge-of-you-seat thriller… I have been inspired by Robert and Jean-Stéphane’s [the film's director] dedication to tell this story in the most authentic way possible.

We can’t wait to see Robert in this new light – or any light for that matter.  Get it?  Because vampires can only come out at night?

Oh come on!  That was a good one!
