And your daughter Kristen also plays a micro-cameo in the movie…

Yes, she is the secretary on the telephone. She loves the film and wanted to be a part of it. She was going to be Butterfly at first. Kristen attached herself to that role years ago but the schedule didn’t work. There was Snow White and the Huntsman and I have to push her up to do this big movie.

Let’s talk about Cannes. How is the festival going for you?

We are having a wonderful time here, it couldn’t be better. We already got offers for K-11, the movie has been very well received there.

How long are you staying? 

Until May 26th. I’m here for the whole festival. My daughter Kristen is coming on the 22nd for her movie ON THE ROAD so I’ll be here to support her. I’m really proud of her.

Red carpet time then?

I don’t know yet, but I will definitely be on the background, applauding her.

So who will she play?

Karen, the secretary of Goran Visnjic’s dissipated record producer, who finds himself locked up in L.A.

County’s notorious K-11 unit, which specializes in special protection for LGBT inmates.

“Kristen has always been supportive of K-11,” Jules told us exclusively, “but you’ll have to look very hard to find her. It’s a micro-cameo.”

Actually, we should say you’ll have to listen very hard.

Because Kristen’s role is actually a voice-over: “We’d already finished shooting the movie, but Kristen still wanted to be a part of it in some way,” Jules said.

“As K-11 took longer and longer to get funded, [Kristen] got bigger and bigger,” Jules says. “We decided it was better for her to go and do Snow White. But I asked her opinion on things. She’s partly responsible for making this a successful film.”

We have found out that although Kristen will not be appearing in her mother’s ‘directorial debut’, Kristen’s brother, Cameron, will be! It’s going to be neat to see ‘C-Stew’ on screen!

Kristen Stewart won’t appear in “K-11,” her mom’s directorial debut, but big brother Cameron Stewart will, Variety’s Josh L. Dickey exclusively reports. It’ll be the first film credit for K-Stew’s older sibling, but not for his co-stars Goran Visnjic, D.B. Sweeney and Portia Doubleday. The film stars Visnjic as a successful young record producer who wakes up after a three-day binge in a special unit of L.A. County’s Men’s Central Jail that’s dedicated to vulnerable prisoners, a place ruled by a viper transsexual. (Cameron Stewart will play an inmate named “Sledgehammer.”) Though there was mass speculation that his kid sister of “Twilight” fame would also play a transgendered character, she is not involved in the project, alas. Shooting started July 18 at locations in Woodland Hills and Hollywood, and has moved on to the now-closed Sybil Brand correctional facility for women in Los Angeles County.

Rumor Alert! Apparently Hollywood Life is reporting that Kristen is helping her mom with K-11 as a producer or scriptwriter for the film. I normally don’t trust HL, but this seems plausible. I was thinking that she’d help her mom out with the film since she’s expressed interest in it.

An insider tells HollywoodLife.com Kristen Stewart is currently in Los Angeles working on her next project!
Since wrapping The Twilight Saga more than two months ago, Kristen Stewart has been busy attending award shows, visiting her boyfriend Robert Pattinson in Toronto (where he’s filming Cosmopolis), traveling to London — and now the 21-year-old actress is in Los Angeles, where she’s busy at work on a project close to her heart!

“Kristen is at home right now in LA working with her mom, Jules, on their movie, K-11,” an insider tells HollywoodLife.com. “I think she’s going to be a producer and a scriptwriter on the film.”

As we previously reported, Kristen has been working on K-11 — a movie about an autistic transgender named Butterfly, who meets a meth head transgender named Mousey in jail — for more than two years.

Originally Kristen’s Twilight co-star, Nikki Reed, was slated to star in the drama, but told us April 12, 2010 she backed out of the project.

K-11 will be directed by Kristen’s mom, Jules Mann-Stewart, and is scheduled to begin shooting next month.
