Wiki
Kristen Jaymes Stewart (born April 9, 1990) is an American
actress. She is best known for playing Bella
Swan in The Twilight Saga. She
has also starred in films such as Panic Room, Zathura, In the Land of Women, Adventureland, The Messengers and The Runaways.Early life
Kristen Stewart was born and raised in Los Angeles.[1][2][3]
Her father, John Stewart, is a stage manager and television producer
who has worked for Fox.[4]
Her mother, Jules Mann-Stewart, is a script supervisor originally from Maroochydore, Queensland, Australia.[3][5][6][7]
She has an older brother, Cameron Stewart.[8]
Stewart attended school until the seventh grade, and then continued her
education by correspondence.[3]
She has since completed high school.[9]
Career
Stewart's acting career began at the age of eight, after an agent saw
her perform in her elementary school's Christmas play.[10]
Stewart's first role was a nonspeaking part in the film The Thirteenth Year.[4]
Then, she had another part in the film The Flintstones in Viva Rock
Vegas as the "ring toss girl".[4]
She subsequently appeared in the independent film The Safety of Objects, in which she played
the tomboy
daughter of a troubled single mother (Patricia Clarkson). Stewart had a major role in the
Hollywood film Panic Room, playing the diabetic daughter of a divorced mother (Jodie
Foster). The film received generally positive reviews, and Stewart
garnered positive notices for her performance.
After Panic Room's success, Stewart was cast in another
thriller, Cold Creek Manor, playing the daughter
of Dennis Quaid's and Sharon
Stone's characters; the film generally failed at the box office.
Her first starring role followed, in the children's action-comedy Catch That Kid, opposite Max
Thieriot and Corbin Bleu. Stewart also played the role of
Lila in the thriller Undertow. To date, Stewart's most critically acclaimed
role may be in the television film Speak (2004), based on the novel by Laurie Halse Anderson. Stewart, 13 at the time of
filming, played high school freshman Melinda Sordino, who stops almost
all verbal contact after being raped and who
deals with enormous amounts of emotional turmoil. Stewart received great
praise for playing the character, who had only a few speaking lines,
but kept up a dark-witted commentary inside her head throughout the
film.
Kristen Stewart in Hollywood, 2007
In 2005, Stewart appeared in the fantasy-adventure film Zathura, playing the role of Lisa, the irresponsible
older sister of two little boys, who turn their house into a spacecraft
hurtling uncontrollably in outer space by playing a board game. The film
received praise by critics, but Stewart's performance did not garner
much media attention, as it was noted that her character is immobilized
during most of the film.[11]
The following year, she played the character Maya in Fierce People, directed by Griffin
Dunne. After that film, she received the lead role of Jess Solomon
in the supernatural thriller film The Messengers.
In 2007, Stewart appeared as teenager Lucy Hardwicke in In the Land of Women, a romantic drama starring Meg Ryan
and The
O.C. star Adam Brody. The film, as well as Stewart's
performance, received mixed reviews. That same year, Stewart appeared in
Sean
Penn's critically acclaimed adaptation film Into the Wild. For her portrayal of Tracy—a
teenage singer who has a crush on young adventurer Christopher McCandless—Stewart
received generally positive reviews. Salon.com
considered her work a "sturdy, sensitive performance",[12]
and the Chicago Tribune noted that she did
"vividly well with a sketch of a role."[13]
Her performance was not without detractors, however; Variety's critic Dennis Harvey
wrote, "It's unclear whether Stewart means to be playing hippie-chick
Tracy as vapid, or whether it just comes off that way."[14]
After Into the Wild, Stewart had a cameo appearance in Jumper and also appeared in What Just Happened, which was released in October
2008.[15]
She also co-stars in The Cake Eaters an independent film that has only been
screened at film festivals.
On November 16, 2007, Summit Entertainment announced that Stewart would
play Isabella "Bella" Swan in the film Twilight, based on Stephenie Meyer's bestselling vampire
romance novel of the same name.[16]
Stewart was on the set of Adventureland when director Catherine Hardwicke visited her for an informal screen
test which "captivated" the director.[17]
She stars alongside Robert Pattinson, who plays Edward
Cullen, her character's vampire boyfriend. The film began
production in February 2008 and finished filming in May 2008. Twilight
was released domestically on November 21, 2008.[18]
After the release of Twilight, Kristen Stewart was awarded the
MTV Movie Award for Best Female Performance for her portrayal as Bella
Swan. Stewart reappeared as Bella in the sequel, The Twilight Saga: New Moon,
and will reprise this role in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.
Stewart has been nominated and presented with the BAFTA Rising Star award.[19]
At the 2010 82nd Annual Academy Awards, Stewart and Twilight co-star Taylor Lautner presented a tribute in honour of the horror
movie genre.[20]
In 2009, Stewart starred in The Yellow Handkerchief,
which debuted at the Sundance Film Festival and was released into
theaters in 2010 by Samuel Goldwyn Films. She also starred alongside James Gandolfini in Welcome to the Rileys, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in January
2010. Stewart most recently portrayed legendary rock star Joan
Jett in The Runaways, a biopic of the
titular band from writer-director Floria Sigismondi.[21]
Stewart met with Jett over the 2008–2009 New Year to prepare for the
role, and ended up prerecording songs in a studio for the film.[22]
She received nearly unanimously praise for her performance. Josh Tyler
of Cinema Blend pronounced her to be "a modern day James
Dean. She gives the kind of performance in The Runaways that
hasn’t been seen on screen since his death. The Runaways is her Rebel
Without a Cause ... she’s absolutely brilliant as Joan Jett." [23]
The Metro Times wrote, "It
turns out that Stewart is actually really good at capturing Jett's icy,
tough-but-cool girl swagger, adding the needed touches of vulnerability
that transform it into a pretty terrific performance... Stewart is a
genuine rock star here." [24]
Also, A.O. Scott of The New York Times
noted "Ms. Stewart, watchful and unassuming, gives the movie its spine
and soul." [25]
Stewart will star in a film called K-11
with Jason Mewes.[5]
The film, which is being directed by Stewart's mother, takes place in a
dorm of the Los Angeles County
Jail, and will feature Stewart as a male character.[5][26]
She has also been cast in the role of Mary Lou in an upcoming film
adaptation of Jack Kerouac's cult classic novel On
the Road. Shooting is scheduled to begin in August 2010. [27]
Personal life
Stewart currently lives in Woodland
Hills, Los Angeles. Stewart has expressed a desire to live and work
in Australia, saying, "I want to go to Sydney University in Australia. My
mom's from there."[28]
Apart from acting, she is also interested in attending college in the
near future, saying, "I want to go to college for literature. I want to
be a writer. I mean, I love what I do, but it's not all I want to do—be a
professional liar for the rest of my life."[29]
In Vanity Fair, Stewart admitted that
she dated Michael Angarano, her co-star from Speak.[30]
