New Projects For The Twilight Trio
Kristen Stewart
The lovely and talented Ms. Stewart has an extremely busy year ahead of her. She’ll appear in “The Yellow Handkerchief,” an indie drama that features plenty of emoting, alongside William Hurt and Maria Bello. Also on the horizon for the pale beauty: “Welcome to the Rileys,” in which she’ll work with James Gandolfini. And let us not forget the much-discussed rock pic “The Runaways.” In it, Stewart plays rocker Joan Jett and bravely sports a non-ironic mullet. Look for “Handkerchief” to hit theaters in February, and “Rileys” and “Runaways” sometime in 2010. And, of course, there will also be another “Twilight” flick, “Eclipse,” next summer.
Robert Pattinson
The sparkly star of “Twilight” had a smaller role in “New Moon,” but that hasn’t dimmed his Hollywood prospects. His next big turn will be as a romantic and moody young man in “Remember Me.” In the film, the rebellious Pattinson pursues the daughter of a police officer who doesn’t like him very much. Throw into the mix a strained relationship with his father (Pierce Brosnan), and audiences can expect a lot of family drama mixed with forbidden romance. Will Pattinson’s sizable female fan club buy him in a non-bloodsucking role? His turn as the mustachioed Salvador Dali went over like a lead balloon — hopefully “Remember Me” will hit the mark.
Taylor Lautner
Lautner’s performance as Jacob Black earned him and his abs a legion of female fans. Up next for the up-and-comer: a turn in “Valentine’s Day,” an ensemble romantic comedy costarring Bradley Cooper, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Biel, and the grand dame of the genre, Julia Roberts. With so many A-listers, Lautner’s fans shouldn’t count on their favorite boy-hunk to get too much screen time. Fortunately, they’ll get a chance to ogle when Max Steel, a movie based on a popular line of toys, hits theaters in 2011. And, of course, there will be “Eclipse” in 2010. In other words, don’t panic, ladies. The ab-fab actor will be back soon enough.
