Kristen Stewart shot to fame with the cult Twilight film series and is now considered one of the most popular and desirable stars of her generation. Along with her commercial appeal, the celebrity proved her worth as an actor of repute when she impressed audiences and critics across the world as Princess Diana in Spencer.
With a massive fan base and an eclectic filmography, Stewart is well on her way to becoming one of the most successful actors. As far as her inspirations are concerned, the Underwater star is a die-hard fangirl of Greta Gerwig. When asked about the possibility of doing a Marvel film, she addressed the Barbie phenomenon and confessed that she would accept an offer only if Gerwig stepped in as director.
Kristen Stewart’s Clause To Do A Marvel Film Involves Greta Gerwig
While Greta Gerwig and Barbie missed out on the awards season this year, there is no denying the fact that the film made a powerful impact on audiences all across the world. In addition, the director has also succeeded in inspiring many celebrities in Hollywood like Kristen Stewart. The Twilight star who saw the Oscars 2024 from her home, confessed that she is a huge fan of Gerwig and her film.
Speaking to the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast, Stewart revealed that Ryan Gosling’s iconic I’m Just Ken performance on the Oscar stage made her feel emotional, happy, and teary-eyed all at once. She also spoke about how Barbie pioneered a whole revolution thanks to Gerwig whom she was ecstatic for.
“It’s emotional, dude, watching Greta watch it. When they did the one cutaway of her and she was just, like, front-row belting and looking at the thing she helped kickstart….”
The Love Lies Bleeding star provided further proof of her admiration for the filmmaker when she was asked if she would ever be on board to do a Marvel superhero movie. Stewart gave an emphatic reply and said,
“It sounds like a f***ing nightmare, actually. But maybe the world changes. If Greta Gerwig asked me to do a Marvel movie, then I would do it.”
With the Spencer star’s fan base and Gerwig’s impact on cinema at the moment, fans will be hoping that Stewart can actually manifest her desire and make this Marvel dream come true.
Kristen Stewart Was Bullied In School For Her Profession
As difficult as it is to imagine, Kristen Stewart was not the most popular person during her childhood days. Owing to an early start to her acting career as a teenager, the star quit school at the age of 14 to pursue her love for films. This decision had a negative impact on her when it came to school and friends.
The actor stated that she was never one to publicize the fact that she was in the entertainment business, and welcomed the opportunity to study on set as opposed to going to school. Her decision was also brought on by the reaction of her peers who resorted to trolling the star when they found out about her profession. Speaking of the challenging times, Stewart told the Mirror,
“I was never the type of girl to walk around talking about being an actress, so I didn’t get a whole lot of s*** until someone found out. I was playing it down, but I definitely got, ‘Oh, she’s such a b****’ I was like, ‘You’ve never spoken to me, but you think I’m a b****? Great.”
Despite these tough times, the Snow White and the Hunstman actor stated that she did not regret the decision to quit high school or felt that she missed out on college as she believed that her dream of becoming an actor was her main focus. As it turned out, her instincts were absolutely spot on.
