5 Best Performances By Kristen Stewart: Seberg, The Runways, Speak And More
Coming from a talented family, who has worked in the film industry, Kristen Stewart always knew she would work in the industry but didn't think she would be acting in movies.
Kristen Stewart turns 30 today best known for her role in Twilight series, but even before she shot to fame as Isabella Swan, Kristen has been a part of the industry as an unconventional actress. Coming from a talented family, who has worked in the film industry, Kristen always knew she would work in the industry but didn't think she would be acting in movies.
Her father John Stewart, has worked with Fox and Comedy Central as a stage manager and television producer while her mother, Jules Mann-Stewart, is a script supervisor and also directed the 2012 film K-11. Once, quoting her memory as a child, Kristen revealed, "I had to act in a school play when I was about ten years old. I really didn't want to do it. But everyone had to do it so I didn't have a choice. A talent agent came and watched it and later gave me some work. It's funny because I'd always known that I wanted a movie career. I just didn't think that I would be in the movies."
Here are some of the best performances by Kristen Stewart in the 2 decades of her acting career.
