Kristen Stewart is ready for a break.
The 35-year-old actress and director opened up about her hectic 2025 while speaking with PEOPLE at the Variety Creative Impact Awards and 10 Directors to Watch event at the Palm Springs International Film Festival on Sunday, Jan. 4.
“I've had the craziest year of my entire life,” Stewart shares. “I got married. My wife made her a movie. I starred in it. I made my movie. We went to Cannes. It's now actually coming out in theaters, which blows my mind.”
Stewart, who tied the knot with wife Dylan Meyer in 2025, jokingly quips, “I was so carbonated over the last year. I need to get flat… I need to go fizz out.”
What exactly does that mean for the Twilight alum?
“I need to go back, fill the well, figure out what my next movie is,” she explains. “There are a couple of things I want to do, but you need to, I need to chill before I can actually come back with the gusto that it's going to take to make those movies.”
In April, Stewart and Meyer tied the knot in Los Angeles’ Casita Del Campo Mexican restaurant with 170 guests in attendance.
Despite being ready for a professional reprieve, Stewart shares that directing has been something she’s had in the cards since she was a child actor.
“I think every impulse towards wanting to help other people tell their stories has been leading me here,” she says. “I think one of the first questions that I had for Jennifer Beals and Jodie Foster, like, the younger me asked everyone who played my mom, like, ‘Who's the youngest director you've ever worked with? Like how old?’ ”
Noting that she was 12 and 15 at the time while asking these questions, Stewart adds that even at that young age she felt she was trying, “to facilitate the kind of catharsis that I went through when I was put on the proper path.”
Stewart's 1980s-set Chronology of Water is now in theaters.
