Games of Thrones and X-Men: First Class fans will be excited to hear about an exciting match up between Emilia Clarke and Jennifer Lawrence's boyfriend, Nicholas Hoult, with the pair set to star as Bonnie and Clyde for the movie adaptation of the novel Go Down Together. 

The film is based on Jeff Guinn's novel titled Go Down Together: The True, Untold Story of Bonnie and Clyde - a tale of two outlaw lovers rebelling against authority during the Great Depression.

Clarke is known as Daenerys Targaryen in Games of Thrones while Hoult plays Henry McCoy (aka Beast) in X-Men: First Class. 

Apart from the two British actors being named in the cast, no further news about the movie's cast lineup has been released yet since the project is still in its development stages.  Despite the film's brief introduction, the production is confident that the film will earn enough interest from the public.

The Go Down Together novel is about the "real tale of two kids from a filthy Dallas slum who fell in love and then willingly traded their lives for a brief interlude of excitement and, more important, fame.  Go Down Together has it all-true romance, rebellion against authority, bullets flying, cars crashing, and, in the end, a dramatic death at the hands of a celebrity lawman," according to its description.

Hoult, who is Jennifer Lawrence's boyfriend, won the Teen Choice Award for Choice Movie: Breakout and has appeared in other films like About a Boy, A Single Man, Warm Bodies, Jack: The Giant Slayer, and popular TV series Skin.

Prior to her lead female role in HBO's original Games of Thrones, Clarke made her Broadway debut on Breakfast at Tiffany's in 2013.
