Pattinson joins Naomi Watts in the new film from Werner Herzog, about English author Gertrude Bell. The biopic tells the story of Bell's travels through the Middle East as an ambassador and cartographer, as well as her life as a writer. Pattinson will play famed British Officer T.E. Lawrence (aka "Lawrence of Arabia).
Watts will take on another biopic, starring as the beloved Princess of Wales in Dianna. Queen of the Desert is set to begin production this fall.
