Kristen Stewart has landed roles in both ‘Camp X-Ray’ and
‘Sils Maria’.
The 23-year-old actress has a busy summer ahead after
committing to shoot Peter Sattler’s politically charged flick and Olivier
Assayas’ new drama back-to-back, according to Deadline.
‘Camp X-Ray’ will be a big departure for the ‘Twilight’
actress, who is set to star as a young woman who joins the army in a bid to
escape her small-town life, only to find herself sent to work at Guantanamo Bay
detention camp. Suffering from abuse from the men in her charge, she forms an
unlikely bond with a man who has been incarcerated for eight years.
Gina Kwon and Sophia are on board as producers, while
Sattler will bring his own script to life.
Stewart will then join an A-list cast including Juliette
Binoche and Chloe Grace Moretz in ‘Sils Maria’.
French filmmaker Assayas wrote the film about an actress
suffering from a midlife crisis specifically for Binoche, who he worked with on
‘Summer Hours’.
Binoche’s character becomes obsessed with a young actress
(Moretz) who is playing the part which originally made her famous, while
Stewart has been cast as Binoche’s assistant.
The brunette recently pulled out of Warner Bros.’
forthcoming heist thriller ‘Focus’, and is also due to film a sequel to ‘Snow
White and the Huntsman’. (Source)
