Robert Pattinson, who played the Spencer actress' love interest in the Twilight films and also dated the actress in real life, plays the main hero Bruce Wayne in the upcoming film The Batman. Some fans just floated the idea of casting Stewart as the Joker in a future film. Variety recently straight-up asked her if she would ever consider playing the famous villain. "I love the energy behind that," Stewart told the outlet. "It's really been done so well. I feel like, maybe, we don't traipse over, but I love that gusto. Let's figure something else out. I'm totally down to play a freaky, scary person." When asked if that meant a definitive "no" from her, the actress said, "Not 'no,' but not the most stoked I've ever been. Let's do something new." Stewart dated Pattinson for about three years until they split in 2013 following a cheating scandal, for which she apologised. The two have since pursued other romances and the actor has been in a relationship with model Suki Waterhouse since 2018. Stewart has previously endorsed the casting of her ex as Batman in the new movie.
