IESB: Kristen Stewart on the Yellow Hankerchief

kristen-stewart-VF-outtakeIESB has a terrific interview with Kristen Stewart that covers the work she did on The Yellow Hankerchief, the Runaways, and her hopes for Breaking dawn and other future projects.

“Q: What was it like to play this character, when you hadn’t done too many major roles, at the time you did this film?

Kristen: Anytime you have to play a person who is not yourself, you’re stepping out of a comfort zone, but that’s what we do. If the role is bigger, that’s just more to chew on, and that’s always good.

Q: What about Martine resonated for you?

Kristen: I can relate to her, in that she’s such the typical girl that really wants to be out there and smiling and totally in the middle of whatever is going on, but has been embarrassed one too many times and has just gone, “I can’t do that anymore.” I feel like she’s also isolated herself. She’s put herself above everyone else. She can’t talk to people because they’ve let her down too many times and, in reacting to that, she made herself better than them. And, through this journey, which is such a cool thing to see such a young person go through, she realizes, “Oh, God, I never looked at you and now I’m opening my eyes and I can see you, and I was wrong.” I liked that.”

Rachelle LeFevre in Unnamed Medical Drama Pilot

It’s pilot season in Los Angles. What that means in its simplest terms is everyone with an idea and money grabs together a cast from the myriad of actors that descend on the town knowing it’s that time of year and a pilot gets made. This pilot, which is probably pretty short, not full TV show length, is taped and then pitched to every network in town hoping someone will pick it up. It’s a flurry of networking and PR where creative people are essentially “selling the suits” on their baby. There are some great Seinfeld episodes where Jerry does a whole routine about selling his idea to the networks, and though it’s comedy, it’s not that far from real life. Anyway, according to The Hollywood Reporter:

“Twilight” alumna Rachelle Lefevre has been tapped as a lead in John Wells’ untitled ensemble medical drama for CBS.

The medical drama, from Warner Bros. TV and John Wells Prods., centers on a mobile medical team that travels the U.S. helping those in need get through life-or-death medical crises.

Lefevre will play a confident young doctor more comfortable in the field than in the office.”

Here’s to hoping the show gets picked up and survives!

Hit Fix: Kristen Stewart and The Yellow Hankerchief

Greg from Hit Fix covered The Yellow Hankerchief press junket talking to Kristen Stewart and Eddie Ramayne.

“It’s hard to believe, but it’s taken over two years for the drama “The Yellow Handkerchief” to theaters. Debuting at the Sundance Film Festival in 2008, the film features great performances by William Hurt, Maria Bello, Kristen Stewart and Eddie Radmayne. Unfortunately, even after “Twilight” and Stewart’s starpower exploded a year ago it took small distributor Samuel Goldwyn to come on board and bring legendary producer Arthur Cohn’s passion project to the screen.

Directed by Udayan Prasad, “Handkerchief” finds Hurt playing an ex-conflict fresh out of prison who is at a crossroads at his life. As he decides whether to pick up with his old girlfriend (Bello), he meets two teenage drifters (Stewart, Redmayne). Are they three four souls who are a new family or wanderers drifting in the night?

Talking to Stewart and Redmayne, I made the point that neither actor had to publicize “Handkerchief.” Both were probably paid close to scale and the film will hardly be a global blockbuster. However, both actors displayed their passion for the film — even if it’s been years since they’ve seen it. ”

Kellan Lutz: Girls Just Wanna Have Socks

If there is one thing we have gained and appreciation of over the past two years is Kellan Lutz’s sense of humor. He  just has this deadpan meets the ridiculous thing down. The spontaneous answers he gives are hilarious. In fact he’s taken messing with the paparazzi and the tabloids to a whole new level.

So during NYC’s Fashion Week Glamour magazine caught up with Kellan who has been taking in the show, and here’s what happened:

“I ran into Twilight‘s Kellan Lutz last night at the William Rast after party (okay, the truth is I stared him down from across the room until I had enough champagne in me to finally make my approach!), and asked him, “What should a girl wear on a first date that would just totally wow you?” His answer was adorable, funny, and shockingly on-trend for fall 2010. “Socks.” He didn’t even blink. “Socks?” I asked.”What do you mean, like, um, just socks?”

Kellan then gives and explanation of the socks which you have to click here to read.

So after you read the full explanation, was Kellan serious, or just messing with the reporter?
