Kristen Stewart warns fans of her directorial debut: 'It'll be a hard watch'

Kristen Stewart is all set to sit in the director’s seat.

In her cover interview with PORTER, the 34-year-old actress revealed that she will soon be making her directorial debut with a feature film based on Lidia Yuknavitch's 2011 memoir The Chronology of Water.

However, Kristen warned that the movie "is about incest and periods and a woman violently repossessing her voice and body, and it is, at times, hard to watch ... but it’s gonna be a f---ing thrill ride."

"I think people would want to see that, but then ... I think maybe people wanna watch movies about, like, Jesus and dogs," the Oscar-nominated actress said.

When asked how she feels about stepping into a director’s shoes, Kristen replied, “It’s kind of a self-conscious thing to talk about because it’s hard to get anything made."

“As an actor, I’m called upon to serve other people’s visions," she also said, of the difference between being in front of the camera and behind. You get greedy; it feels good to be called upon … even if you don’t love the thing,” she added.

As per the synopsis of the book, The Chronology of Water explores "issues of gender, sexuality, violence and the family from the point of view of a lifelong swimmer turned artist."
