Ellise Shafer “Twilight” catapulted Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart to fame when it first premiered in 2008, leading the two to fruitful careers on screen. But who would play Edward Cullen and Bella Swan if the saga was rebooted today? According to Catherine Hardwicke, who directed the first “Twilight” film, Jacob Elordi and Jenna Ortega “would be perfect” as the star-crossed lovers.

Amazon/MGM’s Saltburn, the dark-comedy sendoff of British upper class, expanded nicely in a big jump from seven screens to 1,566, nabbing a spot in the top ten.

The multi-hyphenate Fennell also pops up as the pregnant Midge doll in Barbie and is co-penning the upcoming John Wick spinoff Ballerina.

In fact, after speaking with her late last week it’s clear those sorts of passionate reactions (throw this writer into the growing “love it” camp) are exactly what she’s going for.

Jacob Elordi and Barry Keoghan‘s new movie Saltburn is out now in select theaters and there are some scenes that are definitely not safe for work.

Will Tizard Contributor Cinematographer Linus Sandgren says he and director Emerald Fennell relied on their emotions and instincts to conjure the “gothic” look of “Saltburn,” the hybrid psychological horror and dark comedy just screened at the Camerimage cinematography festival in Torun, Poland.
