Queen of the teen vampire craze, Oscar-nominated actress, indie starlet, and an absolute queer icon, Kristen Stewart has had quite the acting career. Check out our guide below to discover her 10 best movies and where to stream them.
Though Stewart’s fame really took off in 2008 with the premiere of Panic Room - takes the #3 spot on our list. In the film, Stewart co-starred alongside Jodie Foster as a mother and daughter whose Manhattan brownstone gets broken into, forcing them to take shelter in their panic room. With fantastic performances and tons of tension, the movie is an excellent invasion thriller.
But the #1 movie on the list is Spencer, where Stewart portrayed Princess Diana in the months leading up to her separation from Prince Charles. The movie focused on Diana’s struggles with mental health and her rejection from the royal family. While many movies and shows unfairly sensationalize the life of Diana, Spencer took a more emotional and human approach to her story, giving audiences the most raw and real look at her yet. Stewart received both an Oscar and Golden Globe nomination for her role.
And of course, Twilight made the list, ranking #5. Not only did the franchise turn Stewart into an A-List Hollywood star, but it’s also one of the highest-grossing film franchises of all time, grossing more than $3.5 billion worldwide. While Twilight can be seen as somewhat cheesy and pulpy these days, it’s also totally campy and a lot of fun, making it still a great watch. Plus, it was a total phenomenon for many coming-of-age kids and teens in that time period.
Stewart has also starred in a wide range of other fantastic movies, like the LGBTQ holiday film Love Lies Bleeding premiered at the Sundance Film Festival to rave reviews and follows two lovers whose romance leads to crime and violence.
With such a wide range of roles in a large variety of genres, her filmography is much more varied than many fans might expect. Discover more of Kristen Stewart’s best movies and find out where to watch them with our guide below.
