‘Twilight' star Kristen Stewart has joined actresses Michelle
Williams and Laura Dern in the indie drama known as the 'Untitled Kelly
Reichardt Project'. Written and directed by Reichardt, the film is a
series of vignettes that revolve around the lives of people in
small-town Montana, reported Deadline. Stewart, 24, will play a young
lawyer from Boise, who takes a teaching job several hours from her
house. Despite her nerves about teaching, she is determined to prove to
herself that she can do it. Soon after taking the job, Beth develops a
close friendship with Jamie, a local woman, who is auditing her class.
James Le Gros and Jared Harris (Mad Men), and relative newcomer Sara
Rodier also have been cast in the ensemble project, which is being
produced by Neil Kopp and Anish Savjani. Dern, 48, is set as Laura
Wells, a lawyer in Helena who keeps going back into a bad relationship
with Ryan Lewis (Le Gros), a married man who could not care less for his
wife and daughter. Williams, 34, portrays Ryan's wife, Gina Lewis, who
works in advertising with her philandering husband.
