Kristen Stewart became a global star with the “Twilight” saga. Now she’s making another vampire film, the thriller “Flesh of the Gods.”
As a mortal high school student Bella Swan, who falls in love with the over 100-year-old vampire Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson, 37). Kristen Stewart (34) is world famous in the “Twilight” saga (2008-2012). Twelve years after the five blockbusters, the US actress will now star in a vampire film again.
As “The Hollywood Reporter” further reports, Stewart and Guatemalan actor Oscar Isaac (45) will play the main roles in the vampire thriller “Flesh of the Gods” by Canadian director Panos Cosmatos (50). The filmmaker became known for his hallucinatory horror film “Mandy” (2018). Screenwriter Andrew Kevin Walker (59), who, among other things, wrote the thriller “Seven” (1995), sets the new vampire story in Los Angeles in the 1980s.
Wild partying at night in Los Angeles
The focus of the film is the couple Raoul (Isaac) and Alex (Stewart), who go every evening from their luxurious apartment in a skyscraper to LA at night. When their paths cross with a mysterious and hard-partying woman, Raoul and Alex are led into a glamorous, surrealistic world full of hedonism, thrills and violence.
“Like Los Angeles itself, ‘Flesh of the Gods’ moves on the borderline between fantasy and nightmare,” director Cosmatos is quoted as saying. “At once propulsive and mesmerizing, Flesh takes you on a whirlwind ride deep into the glittering heart of hell,” he explains.
Producers hope to begin filming this year. “Our goal is to make a film that cuts across pop culture, fashion, music and film,” they said in a statement.
Kristen Stewart most recently played the lead role in the crime thriller “Love Lies Bleeding” directed by Rose Glass (34), which was released at the beginning of the year.
