Steadily heading toward Hollywood’s A-List, Zoe Saldana will co-star with Tinsel Town’s current “It” Bradley Cooper in the thriller The Words.

The film follows a writer (played by Cooper) who discovers the price he must pay for stealing another man’s work. The project was listed amongst the titles on the Blacklist (the yearly list of Hollywood’s hottest un-produced screenplays) and was work-shopped at the Sundance Screenwriters’ Lab.

No word yet on what role Saldana will play. But if pictures of the current filming—published on Shadow and Act—are any indication, she maybe playing Cooper’s significant other.

The Avatar star will play lead in the upcoming action thriller Colombiana.
