Although an official statement has said that no offers have been made to potential cast members, reports have said if Stewart was to feature she would star as ‘tragic beauty’ Peyton, the unlucky victim of her father’s lust for young ladies. Based on the 1951 William Styron novel, the story tells the tale of Milton Loftis, a drunk trying to raise his family, consisting of his stubborn wife and two daughters.
As some already know, I’m not a fan of Stewart. I can’t really put my finger on why, but maybe it’s because she’s really, really boring.

Too bad you can’t just do your job without importing your own personal biases into the story. You could’ve just reported that she may be up for the role and stopped there. Your extra 50 cents wasn’t necessary as it added absolutely nothing to the story. You want to bitch on Kristen there are other less professional avenues for you to do so.

India, one of the ways in which we try and add a little something extra to The Hollywood News is by encouraging writers to add their own unique voice and opinions to articles in the hopes it will inspire discussion. If you disagree with Jazmine you can make a comment discussing why.Perhaps you could state why you are a fan of Kristen.
If we followed your suggestion “You could’ve just reported that she may be up for the role and stopped there” then what would set us apart from the rest of the Internet? It isn’t as though she attacked her on a personal level for being a glory hunting, deceptive little slutbag.

That is just my opinion of her. As Luke said, as a website we like to ‘jazz things up’ and if a personal opinion is what’s going to set us apart, then that’s what’s needed. And as you can see, Luke’s posted his opinion too. It’s just what happens – we are, after all, on the Internet.

I reckons her personal life, ie. who she sleeps with, is none of our business and doesn’t affect her on screen work. But as Jazmine accurately says, she is really REALLY boring.

I’d just like to clarify that I didn’t post my opinion on Kristen Stewart.I think she’s perfectly acceptable in the roles she chooses and can be genuinely funny in real life as seen in the Jimmy Kimmel video of celebs reading mean tweets about themselves.

I thought she was all right in Panic Room.
