"Bedenkt man Kristen Stewarts Rollen neben der Twilight Sage, wird klar, dass sie eine tolle Schauspielerin ist und die Fähigkeit besitzt, das Mädchen von nebenan genauso wie vergessene Helden und zeitgemäße Ikonen zum Leben zu erwecken."
Es ist zur Abwechslung mal echt schön etwas rein Positives über Kristen als Mensch und Schauspielerin zu lesen*Daumen hoch*
KRISTEN STEWART GOES ON THE ROAD IN 2010
Kristen Stewart In On The Road
Kristen Stewart, now a household name because of the popular Twilight franchise, will be heading in a completely different direction with her next film project. Stewart will soon begin filming the movie version of Jack Kerouac's On The Road, the first film adaptation of the iconic 50's 'beat' novel and travelogue. This marks yet another departure from The Twilight Saga series in terms of Stewart's film roles. Aside from Twilight, she continues to choose more independent roles and projects such as Adventureland (2009) and The Runaways (2010). This year, she will be stepping outside of her Bella Swan character once again to play the role of Marylou in On The Road.
Kristen Stewart To Play Marylou
It is no small feat that Stewart has secured the role of Marylou in On The Road. This movie has been highly anticipated for years now, and finally it will be making its way to the big screen in 2011 by way of director Walter Salles. Stewart's co-stars in On The Road include Garrett Hedlund who is set to play her lover Dean Moriarty, Sam Riley who will play Sal Paradise, and Kirsten Dunst who will portray Dean's wife Camille. For Stewart, the connection to the novel is personal, as she has cited it as her first favourite book growing up. Not only is Stewart tied to the book personally, but for the universal reader it is also easy to picture her playing the character of Marylou. She is described as a stunning woman with a thin frame, blonde ringlets, and a passionate personality. Throughout the novel Marylou is unpredictable, loving, fierce, and a constant presence with connections to multiple characters. She is a young woman just trying to feel life and live that feeling.
The Role Of Marylou
In On The Road, Marylou is centrally tied to the two main characters - Dean Moriarty and Sal Paradise. It is her relationships and travels with these characters that shape the nature of the novel, and will certainly make a visually rich and dynamic storyline onscreen. As they travel around America on the road in search of adventure and thrills, it becomes clear that On The Road is about living life, and truly feeling that experience. The novel was formative in characterizing the term 'beat' and embodied that way of life. It's a term that defined a generation of breaking taboos, expanding beyond limitations, and a rejection of the material norms in society. As the characters of the novel literally go on the road in search of the elusive "it" feeling that Dean Moriarty describes, Marylou finds herself wrapped up in the jazz, the drinks, the bars, the people, and the all-encompassing beatnik revolution.
On The Road created cultural heroes in the form of its lead characters. This suggests that the film adaptation will be taken very seriously as many people will be comparing the book to the movie once it comes out. Once again, Kristen Stewart will be portraying an important role that defined a generation. Based on her performance as Joan Jett in The Runaways, it's clear she has the acting chops and personal sensibilities that are critical when stepping into the shoes of a musical or literary persona of defining proportions. Stewart, who has been known to choose film roles off the beaten path, will undoubtedly shine as Marylou in yet another iconic movie role to add to her resume.
Kristen Stewart's Independent Film Roles
With this year's release of The Runaways at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival, and more recently the release of Welcome To The Rileys at the 2010 LA Film Festival (LAFF), Stewart has many current projects to be proud of. In The Runaways, she plays the female rock icon Joan Jett alongside her Twilight co-star Dakota Fanning who plays fellow band member Cherie Currie. The film saw moderate box office success but garnered Stewart a great deal of respect for her honest and heartfelt portrayal of Jett in a time of 70's sex, drugs, and rock'n'roll. Welcome To The Rileys once again sees Stewart tackling a difficult leading role as she plays Mallory, a young stripper whose life becomes entangled with a struggling couple who are dealing with the recent loss of their own daughter. Welcome To The Rileys is set for release in the fall of 2010.
Considering her film roles beyond Twilight, it has become clear that Stewart is a fine actress with the ability to bring to life the girl next door, forgotten heroes and cultural icons.
