The Twilight Saga is coming to an end, but that doesn’t mean Robert Pattinson is slowing down anytime soon.

The Twilight hunk has just signed on to star in Mission:Blacklist, a screen adaptation of the Eric Maddox book that tells the story of the man that played a key role in the capture of Saddam Hussein.

According to The Baltimore Sun, producer Ross M. Dinerstein said in a statement, "This movie is a gripping, edge-of-your-seat thriller.  I have been inspired by Robert and Jean-Stephane's dedication to tell this story in the most authentic way possible."

Mission: Blacklist isn’t the only post-Twilight project Pattinson has on the way, he is also starring in a Cronenberg film called Cosmopolis along with the drama, Bel Ami.

Currently he is in Vancouver shooting re-takes for Breaking Dawn – Part 2, which is set to release in November.
