The day before, Kristen donned a striped pantsuit while attending the Variety Creative Impact Awards and 10 Directors to Watch brunch held at Parker Palm Springs during the Palm Springs International Film Festival in California.
There, she was asked about the possibility of her ever wanting to direct a remake of her hit, fan-favorite movie Twilight.
“I would love — look. I love what Catherine [Hardwicke] did, I love what Chris [Weitz] did, I love what all of the directors did with the movies,” she told ET‘s Denny Directo at the brunch. ”
“They were so themselves and weird and kind of like, squirrelly, and just so present in that time when they didn’t really know what they were yet, like before they blew up,” she continued about the movies. “Imagine if we had a huge budget and a bunch of love and support. I don’t know — I would love to readapt. Yeah, sure, I’ll do the remake. I’m doing it! I’m committed!”
Stewart, of course, rose to superstardom while she portrayed Twilight’s lead character Bella Swan in the five movies that comprise the Twilight saga, released between 2008 and 2012. She costarred with Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner, Anna Kendrick, Peter Facinelli, Kellan Lutz, Elizabeth Reaser, Ashley Greene and more across the movies, which were adapted from author Stephanie Meyer’s novels of the same name.
Three of the five movies had different directors: Catherine Hardwicke directed the original, while Chris Weitz and David Slade directed New Moon and Eclipse, respectively. Bill Condon directed the two-part finale adaptation of Meyer’s novel Breaking Dawn.
