Kristen Stewart's 'Twilight' Co-star Kellan Lutz Talks About Her and 'Still Alice'

ELLE.com: I actually just wrote a piece for ELLE.com about how people are afraid to love Kristen Stewart because of her public persona, but if you look at her work in Still Alice…

I wanted that role of the brother so bad...

Did you?

Brilliant script. Everyone killed it. I mean, what a great movie. I read the script and I was like, 'I want this.' I even hit Kristen up and was like, 'Put in a good word!' But, regarding Kristen, you know, I'm proud of her for being herself. Times have changed now—there's a lot of invasion of privacy and a lot of ruined moments. What [the paparazzi] take, capture, and release is often taken as a reflection of who that person is.

For smiles...Bella and Emmet arm wrestle!! Miss this

Julianne Moore mentioned Kristen in a new interview

By Jaqui Bronson

• Vanity Fair: The French have really proven their good taste in American actresses this past year by fêting Moore for her performance in Maps to the Stars and also Kristen Stewart for her impressive work in last year’s Cannes debut film Clouds of Sils Maria. Stewart, who played Moore’s daughter in Still Alice, won the César—making her the first American actress ever to receive the honor. The unexpected win may have surprised many, but not Moore, who has known Stewart since she was 12 years old. And movie mother and daughter still keep in touch.

“The minute I won Cannes last year, I got a text from [Stewart] going, ‘Oh my god!” Not long after, Moore got the chance to reciprocate the cell-phone sentiment. “And then I was in L.A. when she won the César and I texted her back.”

“American Ultra” First Look - UHQ Posters, UHQ Still + Interview

By Jaqui Bronson | Published Thursday, May 14, 2015

“American Ultra” has thus far been shrouded in mystery, with fans only knowing the barest of details beyond the title. Now, MTV News can bring you the first picture from the film, as well as the first two teaser posters, featuring stars Kristen Stewart and Jesse Eisenberg.

Director Nima Nourizadeh broke down the plot of the dark comedy for us, and told us a little bit about what to expect from Eisenberg and Stewart in the movie. (Hint: action! Romance! Adventure!) But to start things off, let’s meet our stars.

This is Mike. “He’s got this life that seems pretty kind of lame to most people if they would see it from the outside, but he seems super content,” Nourizadeh said. “He doesn’t have a lot of responsibilities in life, he’s just been going out with this girl Phoebe.”

Eisenberg wore a wig for this role, an accessory that Nourizadeh said helped him slip into the part. “You look at Jesse and he’s got like long hair and he’s just like a stoner, slacker guy…As soon as that wig’s on his head you just had a much more slower, low-key vibe about him.”

“His main motivation in the movie really right now at the beginning anyways is to propose to her. He’s in love with her, that’s his life, he wants to propose to her.”

Stewart’s hair, too, was a big part of bringing her character to life. “We dyed her hair like orangey-red, and that made her look so different. So there’s a kind of slightly scruffy look to her but she still looks so amazing,” Nourizadeh said. “When you watch the movie, you know, you’ll see like Kristen playing the character that you wouldn’t expect her to necessarily. I think she’s funny. There’s stuff that when you watch the movie, you go, ’Ah, that’s a good one. I’ve never seen her like that!'”

Nourizadeh also offered some clarity on the plot of the movie. Eisenberg’s character, Mike, is planning to propose to Phoebe (Stewart). But when he goes to take her out of town, he starts having severe panic attacks. Soon, it’s revealed that Mike is a sort of sleeper agent, and the government is trying to eliminate him. Uh-oh. How will these two stoners in love, who Nourizadeh says are “not, like, super in touch with what’s going on necessarily,” outsmart the forces that are trying to take them down?

The director stressed that “American Ultra” is a genre buster, crossing conventions left and right. There’s action, adventure, comedy and love. (Yes, prepare to see Stewart and Eisenberg kick some ass.)

“You start with this kind of like sweet love story,” Nourizadeh said. “I don’t want to turn people off with that, but what’s really unique about this movie is the fact that it’s like this kind of crazy action-comedy, but really at the core there is this like romance and there’s this love story where all he wants to do is to propose to her. Really if you look at it, the action that comes into play is basically the stuff that’s softening it. It’s like the hurdles that you have to like overcome.

“His world just gets turned upside down and he starts to realize who he actually is. For a lot of the movie, he’s just like unaware of what’s going on, why these people are trying to kill him, and he soon finds out. It’s just this weird sort of entertaining, well-rounded, totally unique movie, I think where you know you’ll be laughing one minute, you’ll be hopefully quite shocked at some of the action that we did. It’s violent, it’s graphic, it’s funny, it’s silly at times, you know it’s just got so many things going on that its hard to actually define really.”

“American Ultra” hits theaters August 21.

Queen of the Desert' picked by Atlas Distribution. Planned for release in late September

By Jaqui Bronson | Published Tuesday, May 12, 2015

Director Werner Herzog's Queen of the Desert starring Nicole Kidman and James Franco has been picked up by Atlas Distribution Co., marking the first time the entity will distribute a movie without Atlas Shrugged in the title.

Queen of the Desert tells the true story of Gertrude Bell, played by Kidman, who was a British spy, an archaeologist and more at the turn of last century and ended up playing a major role in establishing the modern state of Iraq. She wielded an enormous amount of power for a woman of her era.

Atlas Distribution was founded by John Aglialoro and Harmon Kaslow to distribute their trio of Atlas Shrugged movies, and they said a year ago they'd keep the company intact, infuse it with $25 million and release more films.

Queen of the Desert is the first in that effort, and it is planned for release in late September on a 1,000 screens.

The Atlas Shrugged movies, of course, were based on Ayn Rand's novel of the same name that is infused with individualistic themes that Kaslow says are present in Queen of the Desert as well.

"Gertrude Bell was a real-life Randian hero," Kaslow said. "This is exactly the type of film we hope to bring to the masses with Atlas Distribution -- an incredible heroine who thought for herself, took orders from no one and had a lasting impact on the world."

The film also stars Robert Pattinson as T.E. Lawrence, a contemporary of Bell's who was immortalized in the 1962 epic film, Lawrence of Arabia. The movie is produced by Nick Raslan and Sierra/Affinity is handling international sales.
