One of the films we are most looking forward to next year is Twilight, even though some of the young actors we'd wished to see in the cast are now out of the running. Gaspard Ulliel, one of contenders to play the male lead, is no longer available and French male model Jeremy Dufour is also no longer being considered. But one great piece of news that we recently heard is good enough for a celebration on its own. It's about an actress reported to be part of Twilight, Kristen Stewart!

Says cinematical:

"She has comforted herself in The Safety of Objects, she has struggled for life in the Panic Room while Jared Leto terrorized her with really, really terrible cornrows, she visited Cold Creek Manor,* and that was only her first three features. Now Variety reports that Kristen Stewart, fresh from Sean Penn's Into the Wild, has been tapped for another starring role. She'll take the lead in Thirteen writer/director Catherine Hardwicke's next movie, the young adult thriller/romance called Twilight, which I first told you about in October. Sorry Emily Browning, who was once rumored to star.

Based on the YA series by Stephenie Meyer, Twilight focuses on a 17-year-old named Bella who moves to a small town to live with her dad. Unfortunately, she falls for a pale and mysterious classmate, which can only mean one thing -- he's a bloodsucking vampire." [ read more ]

Kristen Stewart was first introduced to worldwide audiences in her outstanding performance alongside Jodie Foster in Panic Room. She will follow Into the Wild with a starring role in the independent film The Cake Eaters for director Mary Stuart Masterson, the independent film Yellow Handkerchief alongside William Hurt and Maria Bello, and a supporting role in What Just Happened alongside Robert De Niro and Sean Penn for director Barry Levinson.

For movie bloggers: this is a place for your blog to be spotlighted, in its own feature post, for all to see. Additionally, the LAMB is a community of film bloggers, some like you and proably some totally unlike you. We regularly have events and blog-a-thons, from our LAMB Devours the Oscars series to Plot Farms to our annual awards, The LAMMYS.

FOCUS ON EMERGING TALENTS

tMF (The Movie Fanatic) is focused in providing the latest news about cinema's emerging talents. We feature interviews and profiles of mainly up-and-coming young actors in our Spotlight, Emerging Talents and On the Verge sections.
