Jay Baruchel has joined Cosmopolis, his rep confirms to Gossip Cop.

The movie stars Robert Pattinson as a wealthy but embattled financial whiz over the course of a hectic 24 hours, during which he bets a fortune against the yen.

Baruchel will reportedly play the Pattinson character’s shy counterpart and “conscience.”

The project will be directed by David Cronenberg.

Sarah Gadon has reportedly been cast as Pattinson’s wife.

Paul Giamatti, Juliette Binoche and Samantha Morton also star.

    lol such disappointing casting for a Cronenberg movie. They pick the dude from She’s out of my League. No wonder Marion Cotillard wouldn’t do this movie. At this rate they should just cast Justin Bieber and Paris Hilton and be done with it. Fail.

    i like Jay

    Hi Kate the Krisbian! We always LOVE to hear your thoughts on all things Rob. (Can you detect the heavy sarcasm?) The only reason Cotillard didn’t do the movie is because she’s pregnant. Do you actually read articles about things or only pick out the little bits that will help you spread your hate? Please stop posting things to try and make yourself and your Kristen obsession feel better. This movie is going to be epic and Rob is going to be amazing in it. I can’t wait to hear what you have to say when this movie comes out.

    Hey Kate, I wonder what Rob and Kristen are doing tonight? Think they are out at a fancy restaurant eating or maybe they decided to just stay in their hotel room and snuggle the night away. hahaha I know that just drives you insane, doesn’t it?

    the hate of the African(dark peoples) is so strong that Africans are denied every credit due them in history…people make statements that africans are not responsible for any major buildings (structures) in the world
    Ultra Berry Blast

  • Rascal

    Don’t know Jay but hope he does well.

    al1102…why does everything have to be about Rob and Kristen. Kate did not say anything about Kristen and Kristen has nothing to do with this article. Why all the drama? Why the need to incite drama?

    lavonegj…wha…huh?

  • MissZee

    @Rascal, don’t you know…every article is about them despite that certain articles are never both them together

  • Rosebud

    @Rascal: I was gonna write exactly the same thing! The article AND kate’s comment don’t mention KS. kate only states her disappointment of the choices that are making make regarding the casting of the movie – which she is entitled to. Why bring the relationship issue here? Why direct a mean shot at kate?

    by me ROB, PAUL AND JULIETTE are big enough to make me thrilled about the up-coming movie, i don’t mind anyone else though all the cast looks GREAT so far. besides Cronenberg will make masterpiece from potato sack if it decides to join the cast, so no worry , this movie is going to be blast:)

  • al1102

    The reason I mentioned Kristen is because Kate is notorious for her hate of all thing Rob and her love of Kristen. She does whatever she can to under mind and belittle him and his relationship with Kristen at every turn. If you have not had the pleasure of reading some of her other posts, then I’m very happy you’ve been spared the hate that spews from her. MissZee I always love how you throw in your two cents when you of all people know what Kate is like. You post on here more than she does. Maybe you two just like to stick together since you have the same agenda.

  • Rosebud

    I have read kate’s other comments. But why pick on her precisely in the thread when she does NOT talk about KS. Hell, she doesn’t even mention Rob!

    Anyway, this seems pointless… just got me perplexed.

  • MissZee

    Did Kate make any mentions of Rob or Kristen in this though? NO, she didn’t. so for once, she wasn’t starting

  • MissZee

    Also, maybe I do post more on here than she does. i don’t keep count…why are you keeping count?

  • al1102

    Just like all the other Nonstens do you actually have to have things spelled out for you?!?! Do you honestly think she was on here just talking arbitrarily about Cosmopolis? The only reason she posted her obviously skewed opinion of this cast is because she is trying to make this big movie for Rob sound like it’s in trouble before it has even started filming. Neither of you are that naive are you?

    MissZee – I have no idea how many times you have posted. I was just saying that since you seem to post on every Rob and/or Kristen story you should know what kind of person Kate is. You can post a million times a day for all care.

  • MissZee

    i post on everything that i think should be commented on…rob/kristen aren’t the only celebs i comment on

  • al1102

    Did I say you post on Rob and Kristen stories only? WTF? I have no idea what other topics you post on and are interested in. Defensive much?

  • Rascal

    I don’t post often but do read the comments. The only one spewing hate is al1102. I am bored out of my mind with the whole Robsten thing. It is childish. I kind of feel sorry for Jay Baruchel. This article was about him getting a good role with a good director and it all ends up being about two people who are not siamese twins and not joined at the hip and will most likely never be in another movie together. Let poor Jay have his day.
    Congratulations Jay.
