Q: You were a fan before you came to work into this. Who were you most excited to work with?
A: I was really excited to work with the whole cast because I’ve seen the movies before. Also, I was really excited to work with Kristen [Stewart], Bella. Because when you read the books, they’re from Bella’s perspective. I almost felt like I let Bella drive myself and I kinda been on that whole journey. It was so nice to meet Kristen and do scenes with Bella. I felt like a had with the part of Zafrina that I also had a real close connection with the Bella character. I think Kristen herself is wonderful. She’s like a little doll. She seems extremely generous and very intelligent. I think the characters of Bella and Zafrina have a interesting relationship because she’s [Bella] Renesmee’s mother. When another woman comes in and has a relationship with your own daughter, it always creates something strange between the mother and the other woman. I felt like my character had a special relationship with Bella as well.

Kristen Lands Lead in "Lie Down in Darkness"
Vulture: Kristen Stewart may have become tabloid fodder in recent days, but the 22-year-old seems decidedly committed to being taken seriously as an actress: Vulture hears exclusively that Stewart has landed the lead role in an indie adaptation of William Styron’s 1951 novel, Lie Down In Darkness. Directed by Crazy Heart helmer Scott Cooper and set in genteel fifties Virginia, Lie Down will have Stewart play Peyton Loftis. As part of a dysfunctional and disintegrating family, Peyton is constantly compared to her crippled sister, Maudie, and her intense physical beauty makes her the object of her frigid mother’s jealous hatred and the target of her father’s incestuous, alcoholic lust. (Stewart will also appear in another fifties-era film, Walter Salles's On the Road, when it's released in the U.S. sometime this fall/winter.)
The part of Peyton had been coveted by Jennifer Lawrence, but Lawrence will spend the better part of the next year shooting sequels. (Catching Fire ignites this fall, while a new X-Men film at Fox commences shooting in January.) Set up at Open Road Films, Darkness has been in development for years by producer Jeff Sharp (You Can Count on Me, Proof) and while it’s unclear how soon it might start production, this is a major casting hurdle cleared.
The Hollywood Reporter: UPDATED: Scott Cooper ("Crazy Heart") wrote the script and is attached to direct what is described as a Dickensian and Dostoyevsky-like heavy drama.
Kristen Stewart is attached to Lie Down in Darkness, Open Road Media’s planned adaptation of a 1951 William Styronnovel, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.
Scott Cooper (Crazy Heart) wrote the script and is attached to direct what is described as a Dickensian and Dostoyevsky-like heavy drama that charts the rise of a Southern family. The family includes Milton Loftis, a drunken patriarch who lusts after one of his two daughters, a frigid mother and the aforementioned daughters -- one beautiful, the other a cripple.
Stewart would play Peyton, the tragic beauty.
The Twilight star's involvement is only an attachment at this point because the project is not financed and has no start date. Sources say financing likely will hinge on the casting of the male lead. Oscar winner Colin Firth was attached to the part at one point, but that is no longer the case, according to sources.
Stewart is coming off of Snow White & the Huntsman, which was a modest hit for Universal this summer. While the studio has hired David Koepp to write a sequel, it's unclear if that movie would happen before or after Lie Down, should it get financing. Stewart next will be seen in November's The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part II, the final installment of the mega-grossing vampire franchise. She also has On the Road, based on the Jack Kerouac novel, which premiered at Cannes in May but does not have a set release date in the U.S.
UPDATE: A source close to the project cautions that the development is at an early stage. "While its exciting to see all the interest the project is generating, the film is still in the pre-production process and no offers to cast have been made as of yet," says the source

Scans: Kristen in One Magazine (France)
The success of Snow White & the Huntsman confirmed that Kristen Stewart could draw the audience into a different role than Bella. Her level of popularity is still on top, but she still refuses to be locked in the codes of the classic star.
You are often described as a rebel, is it a word that defines you well?
I like the idea of being a rebel. But rebel against what? I think I stand in my way to the way we tried to model myself. I'm not trying to sound like anyone and I do not make efforts to smile at every turn. I'm natural but I must admit that it regularly puts me in trouble. I'm honnest in interviews i'm not just rehashing an already prepared speech and then I pass for a girl who complains all the time. we misinterpreted some of my statements on such twilight. And some concluded that I didn't like my role nor the Saga. But it is totally false.
Can you then tell us what is the truth once and for all?
Yes, thank you. Once and for all, I love Twilight and Bella. Nobody will defend the saga more than me. I've complained about wearing contacts for the role and said i was cold, but it doesn't mean that the shooting was a nightmare. There is also the fact that I don't spend my time smiling, but this is how i am , i'm not going to change in irder to please the critics.
You're only ten years older than the actress who plays Renesmee. Was it difficult to play a mother figure at your age?
I had a very motherly relationship with the young actress MacKenzie Foy. And, she really looks like me ! Even our hands are alike. That was strange, but it helped me picture her as my daughter. Bella and Renesmee are able to communicate trough telepathy and it really is interesting to play. Mackenzie also brought Rob's father instincts.
Why did you decide to play a porn actress in your next film?
Because the script was totally crazy ! I've always been attracted to strange things. Nick Cassavetes asked me to play in Cali and to play the role of a girl not so pure that will nonetheless try eerything in order to save her kid sister kidnapped by criminals. I'm training with a coach right now getting myself ready for the shooting. I'm going to dye my hair blonde and physically shape myself as a sexy porn star. The script is really extreme but i love to read something where identify myself as a character so different than me.
You were just chosen to be the face of Baleniaga and its new fragrance. Doyou consider yourself as a fashion icon?
Dear god no !! (laughs) I've been criticized so many times by photographers and journalists because I wasn't perfect on the red carpet. Most of the time, i don't even know the brand's name of the dress i'm wearing. The only exception is Balenciaga which i've alwas loved, because Nicolas Ghesquière's outfits are provocative and bold. But i'm more of a Tom boy lookwise. I wore my brother's clothes for a very long time. In High school I remember being harrassed because of my clothes. I didn't care about my appearence and some of the girls made me ashamed at the gym because I wasn't shaving my legs at the age of 12!
Are the Press critics affect you?
Not the one that are about my look. I'm not perfect and I don't want the public to think so. If I were on top of my game all the time, people would say : what an actress, what a liar ! I don't give a fuck about people that judge me. The other day on the SWATH red carpet I removed my heels to put sneakers on before signing autographs. That was not in order to be more confortable but to be the same size as the young girls who were there to see me. I don't want to seem to be superior to anyone. The heels look better on pictures but nevermind.
So it is false to think that you are scared of your fans?
The fans are not frightening. Each and every one of them are different and interesting. But a group of fans, it's different. In that case, it become scary, because it's like being caught by a wave that is stronger than you. The noise is deafening just like a tsunami and you know it can destroy everything on its path. You ought to be a sociopath for not being frightened and not fearing the energy directed towards you.
