What else do we know about the new heist movie with Denzel Washington and Robert Pattinson?

Daisy Edgar-Jones will also star in the movie alongside Washington and Pattinson, per The Hollywood Reporter.

The movie is “being described as an unconventional heist movie about a bank guard, a teller, and a master thief in a deadly game of cons and double crosses. The story is said to unfold in a non-linear fashion.”

Further plot details beyond that remain under wraps at this time. Samson Mucke serves as an executive producer on the project.
