Kristen Stewart would be perfect for Wanted 2
The first Wanted movie sucked. Why have a sequel?

Kristen Stewart, best known as Bella Swan from the The Twilight Saga, confirmed rumors that she was being considered to replace Angelina Jolie in "Wanted 2," but said she has "nothing nailed down" yet. Her schedule is still full, she said, because she's preparing to film "Breaking Dawn" -- possibly the first of two movies depicting the last book in the Twilight series -- and "On the Road," a movie based on Jack Kerouac's book by the same title.

If Stewart ends up acting in "Wanted 2" she will replace Angelina Jolie, who was interested in other pursuing movies -- specifically, Alfonso Cuaron's "Gravity." Initially, Universal planned to cancel the Wanted sequel completely, but news of Stewart's possible casting revived it.

It looks like "Wanted" fans will have to wait while the project is either put on hiatus or recasted. In the meantime, director Timur Bekmambetov will have his hands full with his own list of projects, including a film adaptation of "Moby Dick" and a "mystery 3-D thriller" called "Red Asphault."

    Stewart's action acting is the same expression I make when rummaging through the refrigerator.

    What?! Hahahahaha!

    Kristen Stewart cannot act. Over dramatic and fake. Plain and simple.

    It was the character of Bella Swan that has given her such a high status.

    I think Kristen Stewart should stick to the twilight movies that way we dont have to see her or Pattinson after the last two release.

    why would they be replacing Angelina Jolie for Kristen Stewart anyway for the second movie? she killed herself at the end of the first one.

    Is about as talented as Keanu Reeves, and just as expressive.

    Wait ...Isn't she supposed to be pregnant, or was that just a rumor?

    I really like the movie Wanted. Kristen Stewart cannot act at all so what makes ppl think that she can take a role that Angelina Jolie can barely muster. I just think that Kristen doesn't have what it takes to play a character that..... umm..... id difficult to portray. No offense Kristen....

    would never replace the character of fox. a a matter of fact the only way to have a sequel would be to make a prequel.

    Is actually a great actress, but I don't think she's good for this particular role.
    She really is a good actress though. People should check out the movies she was in BEFORE Twilght/New Moon(which are the only movies including her that I actually despise.)

    I liked the Wanted movie but Kristen Stewart would be a terrible replacement. She is not the type for action roles.

    Look up the source material for Wanted sometime. The film so completed trashed the original comic. I've never seen such a bad film by that comparison. I didn't know they thought about making a sequel. They shouldn't. Not unless the sequel is a reboot where they actually have the supervillain storyline from the comics.

    Mr. Rictus, Doll Master, Solomon Seltzer, Adam One, Brainbox, Sucker . . . . where in the f**k are they? comics rictus doll master solomon seltzer adam brainbox sucker fk comics rictus doll master solomon seltzer adam brainbox sucker fk comics rictus doll master solomon seltzer adam brainbox sucker fk

    Oh Please! It was just another Hollywood "buckfest"for the not so talented Ms. Jolie! Are you really surprised?
  • Superman urban girl 2010/06/03 18:34:11

    I am not surprised that they stripped out some of the harsher material - the ever present rape and abundant murder. I'm also not surprised that they gave enough material to the lead character to make him "heroic". A Hollywood film isn't going to sell if your main protagonists spend half their time shooting up police departments and raping actresses for fun. I get that.

    What I don't get is changing practically everything else to remove the Super Villain aspect of the comic. I mean thats the driving force. Wanted is a funny title because all the characters are super villains. It would be like filming Jurassic Park and taking out the dinosaurs.

    They could have very easily left in the villains and had Wesley decide that he doesn't want to be a villain in the end . . . only to become like a modern dark hero like the Punisher or Wolverine. His characters Super Villain name is simply the Killer, close enough to Punisher for me. They could have left in most of the great Villains - Rictus and Seltzer and so on. Just have him experience regret halfway through the movie, get him to turn the Fox and then they fight back. Done.

    What they did was just stupid.

    looks like a crack whore and is a terrible actress. So Wanted 2 isn't going to fail because she isn't in it. It's going to fail because it's a sequel without it's original actress.

    Okay... this may sound like a stupid question but... didn't Angelina's character die at the end of the first movie?
    So... how can Kristen be replacing her in the sequel?
    What, is she gonna spend the whole movie just lying there?

    If so, then it's gonna be the easiest paycheck she's ever gotten.

    HORRIBLE. Angelina is definitely the best, and if you try to deny it you will fail epically. I wish Kristen would be happy with her high pitched 10 year old fan girls and sixty year old fan'boys', and leave the rest of us alone!

    should not be in Wanted 2. I mean, I have nothing against the girl and I think she's a wonderful actress but no one would see her as a "action-type of girl."
