Kristen Stewart ‘Won’t Make Another Movie’ Until She Directs Passion Project ‘The Chronology of Water’
Kristen Stewart says that she won't work as an actor until she finds financial backing to make her feature directing debut, "The Chronology of Water."
Stewart knows that one of the hurdles is that she wants to recreate Yuknavitch’s non-linear, stream-of-consciousness prose — meant to evoke the elusive tumult of memory — as a cinematic experience, while portraying how the author’s personal and sexual traumas fueled her alcohol abuse even as she was striving to be a competitive swimmer. In an industry in which Greta Gerwig can gross $1.4 billion turning a plastic doll into a treatise on feminism, one may expect that someone would see the potential value in helping one of the most famous and acclaimed actors of her generation forge her own psalm to womanhood. She’s fairly certain she’ll end up making the film in Europe, and she’s hopeful that her impending trip to Sundance — where she plans to stay for the full festival — will allow her to connect with filmmaking peers facing the same issues.
