Kristen Stewart Turning Heads Without Robert Pattinson Amid New Ben Affleck 'Focus' Movie and 'On the Road' Promotions

Kristen Stewart is still making headlines as she appears in new interviews and a new movie "Focus" next year after success from "The Twilight Saga" franchise.

The 22-year-old actress recently admitted to the Huffington Post that she would star opposite Ben Affleck in a sexy comedy titled "Focus."

"I can confirm that rumor," she said, referring to Internet reports that began surfacing last month. "It's a comedy. I'm really excited about it. We start shooting in April."

MTV News explains the story revolves around a seasoned con man (Affleck) who takes on an up-and-comer (Stewart) to teach her the ways of a good grift. The duo behind "Crazy, Stupid, Love," Glenn Ficarra and John Requa, will writer the script and direct the film.

Before Stewart confirmed the news, Affleck praised the Bella actress saying, "She's terrific and hopefully it will work out."

Stewart is currently doing promotions for her newest movie "On the Road," which also stars Garrett Hedlund. Reports say that she could get a shot at an Academy Award nomination for best supporting actress.

Recently, Stewart walked the red carpet without her on-again boyfriend Robert Pattinson while attending the Vanity Fair screening for "On the Road" on Dec. 7.

During a recent sit-down interview with PBS' Tavis Smiley, Stewart admitted that because she's famous everybody is constantly staring at her but she would rather stare at people.

"I really love what I do," Stewart said. But she admits staying in the public eye has its challenges.

"As an actor and just as a strange person, I want to be able to stare at people. I don't want them staring at me. You want to be able to take people in. First impressions are a very different thing now, they don't exist for me. That is odd," Stewart said.

"It's your attitude, it's your perspective but sometimes I have to kick myself and go, they're not laughing at you. They're just smiling, but naturally, you look around and it's like you're back in school or something. People look over and it's strange for them, I don't know what it is. It's a lot of laughter. I'm like, everyone is laughing at me. Literally, everyone is laughing. I feel like I'm in third grade or something."

She also apologized for the chaos that is always surrounding her on a daily basis, from fans to paparazzi.

"Don't step outside your life and look at it as .. I'm sorry," she said. "Ya they're [photographers, fans] annoying, I'm sorry, if they're here."

We don't think it will go away from Stewart anytime soon.
