'Twilight' hunk Robert Pattinson is reportedly teaming up with 'Wolverine' hunk Hugh Jackman for a period drama with a well-known leading lady.

Rachel Weisz will join the actors in the film 'Unbound Captives,' Variety reports.

The story is about a woman (Weisz) whose husband is killed and her children are kidnapped by a Comanche war party in 1859. Pattinson will play one of her children, while Jackman will take the role of a frontiersman who rescues the woman, according to Variety.

'Unbound Captives' will be the directorial debut for Madeleine Stowe, who also wrote the movie.
