Jennifer Lawrence is finally getting her revenge after her audition tape for Twilight was rejected, as she pairs up with Robert Pattinson for Die My Love. The actress and the Twilight star are starring in Lynne Ramsay's Die My Love, a black comedy that is adapting the Spanish novel of the same name by Ariana Harwicz.

Speaking to Variety on the red carpet for the New York premiere of Die My Love, Lawrence spoke about what it's like to work with Pattinson, as she said, “Yeah, it’s the total revenge that I’ve wanted" joking about her rejected Twilight audition tape. Further she added,

“My favorite part of working with him was probably that we could be in the same room, but not talk for a really long time. I really appreciate that in a coworker.”

Pattinson also quipped in, as he talked about the first time he ever saw Lawrence in a film being Winter’s Bone and said,

“I just remember she was like the thing on the scene. When that movie came out, it was like everyone went to see like, ‘Okay, who is this girl?’ It kind of had like an elemental power, and you could just see that from the second her career started, she was the biggest star in the world.”

Die My Love stars Jennifer Lawrence as Grace, a mother whose descent into postpartum depression fractures her marriage to her husband Jackson, played by Robert Pattinson. With LaKeith Stanfield, Nick Nolte, and Sissy Spacek rounding out the cast, the film unfolds as both a haunting psychological portrait and a darkly funny meditation on love gone feral. It marks Lynne Ramsay's long awaited return to the big screen and has been met with good reviews.

On Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds a positive score of 80%, while critics have poured in praises for Lawrence's performance in the film. It was also nominated for the Palme d'Or at this year's Cannes Film Festival.

The story follows Grace and Jackson as they flee New York City for Jackson’s childhood home in rural Montana, chasing peace and finding chaos instead. Parenthood isolates them, and Grace’s unraveling mind blurs tenderness and terror until reality feels unstable. Ramsay shifts Harwicz’s French setting to the American frontier, trading vineyards for wide skies and silence that hums with menace.

Co-written by Ramsay, Enda Walsh, and Alice Birch, the script leans on visual storytelling. Pattinson described the filming as “alive and terrifying,” recalling days when Ramsay would toss entire pages of dialogue to chase raw emotion. Seamus McGarvey’s 35mm cinematography, framed in 1.33:1, recalls Repulsion and Rosemary’s Baby, saturating claustrophobia with beauty.


Die My Love will be in theaters on November 7, 2025.
