Personal Life
Stewart's love life has grown of increasing interest to fans since her role in the Twilight films. Many speculate that she has started a relationship with co-star Robert Pattinson, a rumor she neither confirms nor denies. However, in a 2008 interview with Vanity Fair, she revealed that she was dating actor Michael Angarano, whom she met during her time on the set of Speak. In addition to acting, Stewart plays guitar, and has expressed an interest in attending college to become a writer. She currently resides in Los Angeles, California.
Career Highlights
Stewart next signed on to play the daughter of Dennis Quaid and Sharon Stone in another suspense drama, Cold Creek Manor (2003). Although Stewart and her co-stars turned out solid performances in the film, the plot was lambasted by reviewers and fans and performed poorly at the box office. Stewart followed up with two more low-performing films in the next year: the light-hearted teen film, Catch That Kid (2004), and the adventure film Undertow (2004) which, despite decent reviews, went almost straight to video.
Stewart showed her versatility as a performer in the Showtime special feature, Speak (2005), about a teen who stops speaking after a sexual assault. That same year, she appeared in the sci-fi film Zathura, followed by the drama Fierce People (2006). After appearing in several more mild box-office successes, Stewart landed a the role of a teenage commune dweller in the critically acclaimed biopic Into the Wild (2007). The role brought Stewart back to the spotlight, and that same year she landed in Mary Stuart Masterson's The Cake Eaters.
Riding the Wave
Vanity Fair names Stewart among "Hollywood's New Wave." The actress shares the cover with rising starlets Blake Lively, Amanda Seyfried and Emma Roberts. Stewart, however, is in no rush to join the A-list. "The 'it' girl does all the little fun-loving movies. They're not the kind of movies that I'm into," she tells the Hartford Courant.
The Saga Continues
Stewart lands her third EW cover – this time with her New Moon leading man Taylor Lautner. The sequel, which pulls in a record $258 million worldwide to become the third-largest debut on record, proves to be a challenge for Stewart. "Before the [pivotal breakup scene], I was sitting in my car, like f---ing crying," she says. "Crying so hard you can't breath." Off-screen, reports swirl that Stewart and Pattinson are involved in a real-life romance.
Taking it Offscreen
Although they've been coy about their relationship, Stewart and Pattinson privately step out to welcome 2010 together on an island off the south coast of England. "I'm just trying to keep something," Stewart says of staying mum on her romance. But Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke spills the beans to Time: "I think it took a long time for Kristen to realize, 'OK, I've got to give this a go and really try to be with this person.'"
Since the start of her Hollywood career, Kristen has entertained moviegoers with her impassioned character portrayals, specifically that of Bella Swan (in Twilight). With multiple projects currently filming or in the production phases, Kristen continues to move forward in her career and look ahead for new opportunities.
