Now that Kristen Stewart has briefly switched trails from actor to director through her directorial debut film The Chronology of Water starring Imogen Poots, Stewart knows better: what’s challenging and how one role differs from the other.
In a conversation with The Times of London, Stewart opened up about the struggles of being an actress. “Actresses get treated like shit, I’ve got to tell you, people think anyone could be an actress,” she said.

She continued, explaining how the directors are viewed from a different lens: “But the first time I sat down to talk about my movie as a director, I thought, wow, this is a different experience, they are talking to me like I’m somebody with a brain.”
“There’s this idea that directors have otherworldly abilities, which is not true. It’s an idea perpetuated by men,” she told the outlet. “Not to sound like I’m complaining all the time, but it’s worse for female actors than male ones — they get treated like puppets, but they are not. Imogen [Poots] put her whole body and soul into this movie.”
Stewart made her acting debut in a non-speaking part in Disney’s film The Thirteenth Year (1999). She went on to work in projects like The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas (2000), The Safety of Objects (2001), Panic Room (2002), and more, finally landing global success in the teen drama film The Twilight Saga.
