Netflix, Obsessed With Casting Hotties As Serial Killers, Has Struck Again W/ Robert Pattinson

Robert Pattinson is the latest hot white man in Hollywood to be cast as a serial killer in a Netflix project and is it just me or is there a pattern here? Our beloved Batman has taken on a new role in a dark comedy/thriller scripted and directed by Adam McKay

The post Netflix, Obsessed With Casting Hotties As Serial Killers, Has Struck Again W/ Robert Pattinson appeared first on PEDESTRIAN.TV .

, AKA the mind behind Netflix’s . The film, titled (lol), follows a serial killer who hires a political lobbyist to change laws that would make it easier for him to get away with his murders, reports. It’s meant to be funny and sardonic but also a genuine thriller since, you know, it’s about murder. Much like , the cast for is fkn stacked: Pattinson as the lead, of course, but then we’ve also got as the lobbyist and as a retired cop intent on solving Pattinson’s murders. Also like , the film will be a commentary on real-life issues — in this case, corruption in politics rather than denialism about climate change. Now look, I personally hated It felt like a pretentious, condescending circle-jerk that was created to make us feel like we’re on a moral high ground, unlike (fictional) people who are in denial about global warming. as “one man’s wake-up-sheeple howl into the abyss”, which is pretty apt. Given what a cringe film it was, I was initially weary about — even if McKay’s other works like and were good — but the addition of Robert Pattinson gives me hope. I mean, pretty much every film he’s been a part of recently has been a slay, and I find it hard to imagine him involving himself in a self-gratuitous project that is actually cringe. And hey, at least he isn’t playing . Lord knows we don’t need any more horny edits of known murderers on TikTok.
