Kristen Jaymes Stewart (born April 9, 1990) is an American film and television actress.
Nickname Kris, KStew
Height 5′ 7″ (1.70 m)
She is perhaps best known for her roles in the films Panic Room, Catch That Kid, Speak, Zathura, The Messengers, In the Land of Women, and the critically acclaimed Into the Wild. She recently finished filming Twilight, based on the best selling novel by Stephenie Meyer.
Personal life
Stewart was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. Her father, John Stewart (not to be confused with The Daily Show’s Jon Stewart), is a stage manager and television producer who worked for Fox. Her mother is a scriptwriter who comes from Australia.
She attended school until the seventh grade, and continued her education by correspondence.She has an older brother, Cameron.
Stewart is an avid surfer and currently lives with her family in Los Angeles. Kristen confirmed to Vanity Fair that she is currently dating actor Michael Angarano.
Career
Stewart’s acting career began at the age of eight, after an agent saw her perform in her elementary school’s Christmas show. Stewart’s first role was a short, nonspeaking part in the Disney Channel TV production The Thirteenth Year.
She subsequently appeared in the independent film The Safety of Objects, where she played the tomboy daughter of a troubled single mother (Patricia Clarkson). Stewart had a role in the major Hollywood film Panic Room, playing the sullen, diabetic daughter of a divorced mother (Jodie Foster). While the film received mixed reviews, Stewart garnered positive notices for the role.
After Panic Room’s success, Stewart was cast in another thriller, Cold Creek Manor, playing the daughter of Dennis Quaid and Sharon Stone’s characters; the film generally failed at the box office. Her first starring role followed, in the children’s action-comedy Catch That Kid, opposite Max Thieriot and Corbin Bleu. Stewart also played the role of Lila in the thriller Undertow.
To date, Stewart’s most critically acclaimed role may be in the television film Speak (2004), based on the novel by Laurie Halse Anderson.
Stewart, thirteen at the time of filming, played high school freshman Melinda Sordino, who stops almost all verbal contact after being raped and who deals with enormous amounts of emotional turmoil. Stewart received great praise for playing the character, who had only a few speaking lines, but kept up a dark-witted commentary inside her head throughout the film.
In 2005, Stewart appeared in the fantasy-adventure film Zathura, playing the role of Lisa – an irresponsible older sister of two little boys, who turn their house into a spacecraft hurtling uncontrollably in outer space by playing a board game. The movie received praise by critics, but Stewart’s performance didn’t garner much media attention as it was noted that her character is immobilized during most of the movie. The following year, she played the character Maya in Fierce People, directed by Griffin Dunne. After that, she received the lead role of Jess Solomon in the supernatural thriller movie The Messengers. The movie was successful commercially, however, it received highly negative reviews by critics
In 2007, Stewart appeared as beautiful teenager Lucy Hardwicke in In the Land of Women, a romantic drama starring Meg Ryan and O.C. star Adam Brody.
The movie, as well as Stewart’s performance, received mixed reviews. That same year, Stewart starred in Sean Penn’s critically acclaimed adaptation film Into the Wild. For her portrayal of Tracy – a teenage singer who has a crush on young adventurer Christopher McCandless – Stewart received generally positive reviews. Salon.com considered her work a “sturdy, sensitive performance”, and the Chicago Tribune noted that she did “vividly well with a sketch of a role.” Meanwhile, Variety magazine’s critic Dennis Harvey commented skeptically,
“It’s unclear whether Stewart means to be playing hippie-chick Tracy as vapid, or whether it just comes off that way.”
After Into the Wild, Stewart had a cameo appearance in Jumper and also appeared in What Just Happened, which was released in October 2008.
She also co-stars in The Cake Eaters and The Yellow Handkerchief, both independent films that have only been screened at film festivals.
On November 16, 2007, Summit Entertainment announced that Stewart would play Isabella “Bella” Swan in the upcoming movie Twilight, based on Stephenie Meyer’s bestselling vampire/human romance novel of the same name.
Stewart was on the set of Adventureland when director Catherine Hardwicke visited her for an informal screen test which “captivated” the director.[16] She will star alongside Robert Pattinson, who will play Edward Cullen, her character’s vampire boyfriend. The film began production in February 2008 and finished filming in May 2008. Twilight will be released domestically on November 21, 2008.
During a radio interview with Big O and Dukes of WJFK 1067, Jason Mewes stated that he is doing a movie called K 11 with Stewart and Nikki Reed, also of Twilight.

I really love the way kristen was presented in the movie TWILIGHT . Any ways , she is gorgeous to look at and she was the actual TWILIGHT to the movie !!
I was pretty much impressed with this young star and the only one I love besides my girl friend !!!
She was perfect !!!

she is just amazing..by watching her in the movies..i seem to understand her, how she moves her eyes..how her eyes look when she is actually plushing! n the way her lips is ..i just like her so much..love her..her personality, the quietness..evrything..keep it up!!kris..wish you more sucess.
Maybe it’s just me, but she seems a little stilted and awkward, and not in an endearing way. Not to mention the fact that she looks completely cracked out at every public appearance she makes. Hasn’t anyone ever told her that you can put off the “I don’t care” vibe without looking like a drug addict? She’s a pretty girl, she should dress like one.
kristien stewart beautiful,sympathetic,natural and good actress.I LOVE YOU BELLA

I just love reading all the mistaken little people’s out there’s comments. Without Rob and Kristen. Well, Twilight would be a better Twilight. That’s all I have to say. I hope she grows her hair out, because her new hair, even if it is for a movie, looks like a mullet and it’s gross. I personally like her better with blonde hair, and that’s the only positive thing I will ever say about her, and even then it’s criticism.
mmmmmmm she is the hottest actor eva i love her so much:P:P she was amazin in twilight cant wait for new moon:P:P i love Kristen!!!!
Salut Kristen..
U rock..i love the Twilight.Can’t wait to see the New Moon and Eclipse.
take care always.
wish you all the best…
omg!!! she looks SO much like Lisa Maries daughter Riley Keough in da first blonde pic. feel free to disagree its jus my opinion. but i think she rlly does the blonde pic. google riley and u’ll c wat i meen :]]
I agree with rebecca, but… rebecca lay off her she has done alot in her life and if her make-artist is being lazy then blame her!!!! And if she did her own make-up then she should be given a break… she is a star people rush her. Love kristen stewart!
Kristen take certains face and those faces are wheird. Don’t you know that? But what-ever…u.u

I liked her in the Panic room, I thought she was cute as a button in that movie, but I really don’t like her or kinda care for her now. Why did she dye her hair and grow up a big model? I wish she was just like herself in the panic room!
SHE JUST DESERVE…

kirsten you are beautiful and so cute!
Wow, some people are nice and some are really mean. I feel bad for you Kristin Stewert. And by the way everyone, you need to check your spelling. It gets on my nerves. Kristin, you are very pretty, you are a great actress but I feel bad for you to have all these people freaking out. I would hate that. You’re a normal person. Just a little above average.:) I honestly do not understand why you all are expecting a response from her. I mean, really? Sure, Kristin, your life is more interesting than ours, but we’ll get there. The only difference between me and you is that more people know you. And you’re a lot prettier. And the talent is a bit of a stretch. So everyone, I can’t say that it’s stupid to leave notes for her, because I’m doing the same. But stop with all the crap about her. Seriously. Go out and do something. Make your life as interesting as hers.
i love u u rthe great actress in twilight new moon so did u say yes when robert pattinson asked u r u going to marry me
Although your roles in both Twilight and New Moon were extremely captivating and I know that there could not be a better person to play the role, I wanted to gush about Adventureland. It’s become one of my favorite movies and you pretty much made it that way. Your a very talented actress who proves that you can do way more than just be a single character. Can’t wait to see what you have in store for the future! You’ve got a great technique that sets you apart from all other actresses, it’s really refreshing…
u rock and my brother and friend loveu
when i saw a movie Twilight from then i was fan of your hair and of you ,look so quite and charm that so i become a fan of you but i request you that work only in nice film’s and be a great superstar and i also pray for god for coming year be a oscar winner films ……….
hi very very good
hello kristen, even though im one of your older fans i cant say enough about your acting and what ive seen your kindness too others
soy mexica no espero y respondas
hello,kisten you’re such a very good actres,hope you’re always feeling ok.
Extemely captivating actress and her eyes are unreal…
Bella is pretty and looks the part she looks amazing with Edward they’re truly a pair but Kristen has no personality.She just reads the lines with no expresion. Bella in the book has a lot of energy and a lot of personality kristen needs to act MORE.
i love kristen stewart shes the best
i love kristen she is so beautiful and i am a big fan
