'Twilight' Stars Aim for the Stage?

According to WhatsOnStage.com 'Twilight' star Kristin Stewart is hoping to soon test her acting chops onstage, preferrably in the West End. Inspired by friend Eddie Redmayne, whom she saw perform in RED at the Donmar Warehouse (Redmayne is now performing in RED on Broadway), Stewart tells 'Vogue' magazine of the challenge: "Unlike movie acting, you have to deliver the whole performance there and then. You live it every night."

Stewart's 'Twilight' co-star, Robert Pattinson, also has the stage on the brain, telling the U.K.'s Daily Star recently that he was interested in doing Broadway after seeing Daniell Radcliff in EQUUS.

Stewart is most well known for playing Bella in the wildly popular 'Twilight Saga' films. Her other film credits include, 'Panic Room,' 'Cold Creek Manor,' 'Undertow' for which she was nominated for a Young Artist Award for Best Performace In a Feature Film- Supporting Young Actress, 'Zathura,' 'The Cake Eaters,' 'Into The Wild,' 'Jumer,' 'Adventureland,' 'The Runaways,' and the upcoming 'On The Road.'

Robert Pattinson rose to fame playing Edward Cullen in the film adaptations of the Twilight novels by Stephenie Meyer, and for the role of Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. In 2010, Pattinson was named one of Time magazine's 100 Most Influential People in The World. His upcoming films include The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, Bel Ami, Water For Elephants and Unbound Captives.
