Uma Thurman is set to become the envy of teenage girls across the world - she is to romance Robert Pattinson in a new movie.

The 39 year old has been cast alongside the Twilight hunk, 23, in an adaptation of Guy de Maupassant's short story Bel Ami, about a young male journalist who sleeps his way into high society by seducing a string of glamorous and influential women.

Kristin Scott Thomas will also play one of Pattinson's conquests in the new film, which is scheduled to begin filming Paris, France next year.
