Ever since the end of The Twilight Saga, the duo of Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart haven’t come across each other in any other projects. Although it might have to deal with the two’s unfortunate breakup, however, the Cosmopolis director once expressed his desire of bringing the two together for one of his movies.
But even though the director commended both the actors on how they have developed into wonderful actors since parting ways. He eventually brushed off his idea as he went on to explain that making a movie with the two in the center might not work out well for the Twilight fandom.
David Cronenberg believes that a movie involving Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart can be problematic
While speaking with Variety, David Cronenberg explained that even though he wanted to bring Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart together for one of his movies. He doesn’t think fans of the Twilight movies will be open to his vision for their characters. Considering that their fans are already accustomed to seeing them in a certain kind of relationship in the Twilight movies, Cronenberg believes that it will eventually tarnish his vision for the characters. He said,
“It might be problematic since fans might expect a certain kind of relationship and that would get in the way of creating new characters for them. So, I have a strange feeling that might be problematic, so it’s only theoretical for now,”
However, the Twilight fandom might not be the only problem on Cronenberg’s list. The duo themselves haven’t been on the nicest terms since the end of their Twilight days and suffered an ugly breakup that took a toll on both the stars.
The unfortunate breakup wasn’t easy on the Twilight stars
Despite being one of the most high-profile couples in the industry at the time, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart would eventually part ways. Even though the duo did manage to make their relationship work even after Stewart cheated on Pattinson with director Rupert Sanders, it would eventually come to an end. And it wasn’t easy on both the Twilight stars, especially Kristen Stewart, who went on to state that the break up was, “incredibly painful”.
Robert Pattinson would also open up about the difficulties he had to endure after their split up and expressed that Stewart cheating on him wasn’t the hardest part. He said,
“The hardest part was talking about it afterward. Because when you talk about other people, it affects them in ways you can’t predict,”
Despite not being on the brightest terms after Twilight, it hasn’t stopped both of them from finding success, especially Pattinson. As the actor has proved himself as one of the top guys in the industry through his performances in The Lighthouse, Good Time, and The Batman.
The Twilight Saga is available to stream on Apple TV.
