Kristen Stewart determined to make feature directorial debut this year

The Twilight actress has been attached to write and direct the movie adaptation of Lidia Yuknavitch's memoir The Chronology of Water since 2018. Sharing a progress update with IndieWire, Kristen revealed the project still isn't ready to go into production but she hopes filming can begin later this year. "If I don't make this movie before the end of the year, I'll die.” Kristen explained that she hasn't yet secured full financing for her project. She believes this is because she wants to work with a small five-person crew and have a loose shooting schedule along the Oregon coast.
