Olivier Assayas released his rather impressive “Irma Vep” series a few months ago. It’s well worth checking out. Before that, his last two films (“Non-Fiction” and “Wasp Network”) were critical disappointments. So, why not go back to the source of your recent success?
Forbes let it slip that Assayas is teaming up with Kristen Stewart for their third feature film. They had previously, and successfully collaborated on “Clouds of Sils Maria” and “Personal Shopper.” K-Stew also recently appeared in an episode of “Irma Vep.”
Assayas is going back to his muse, Stewart, it was inevitable, they are a great actress/director combo. There is no word yet on the plot of this new movie nor when it is actually going to be shooting, but we clearly know they have the ball rolling.
Stewart admitted last year in an interview that she’s probably only made five really good films. I just scrolled through her filmography, much as she probably did, and found seven very good to excellent films she’s starred in (“Personal Shopper,” “Crimes of the Future,” “Certain Woman,” “Adventureland” “Panic Room,” “Into the Wild,” and “Clouds of Sils Maria.”)
