Robert Pattinson is now a household name. Through the Twilight franchise Pattinson has amassed millions of fans and worldwide uber-fame. Before Twilight he was just a blip on the pop-culture radar who would have been lucky to score a guest starring role on hit television series. Since Twilight, Pattinson has acquired enough industry mojo to allow him free reign over the indie world. His first venture was a film ironically titled Remember Me. I doubt anyone will recall this movie or his presence in it in years to come. Pattinson also produced this film, which is an eloquent way of saying he to contributed to its financing. Now he has another indie project on his radar, reports NY Times (via The Playlist).
Unbound Captives is a project spearheaded by actress turned screenwriter Madeleine Stowe. The western has attracted the likes of Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz. However, their attachment to the project seems to be shaky at best. Robert Pattinson is reportedly after a role where he will be required to predominately speak Comanche. Hypothetically, if Pattinson was able to land the role it would provide him an opportunity to showcase both his range and acting talent. Of course, Pattinson speaking Comanche could miss the mark critically and also produce the potential for a laughably horrendous piece of acting.
