The screenplay comes from longtime "X-Men" writer and producer Simon Kinberg. The cast also includes Sean Harris, Danai Gurira, Moisés Arias, Daisy Edgar-Jones and Denzel Washington. "The Take" premieres on Netflix on January 15, 2027.

Pattinson stars as Noah, a former Army captain struggling to adjust to civilian life after leaving the military. He is recruited by Christian, a charismatic thief played by Washington, to help rob Manhattan’s wealthiest bank. There is just one complication: Noah’s girlfriend Rose, played by Edgar-Jones, works there as a teller. With time running out and his relationship on the line, Noah must decide who he can really trust.
