'Still Alice' Movie Releases Jan 2015, Julianne Moore Praises Co-Star Kristen Stewart, Read More Here

The upcoming movie Still Alice starring Julianne Moore premiered at the 2014 Toronto International Film Festival in September and is set to open in the U.S. on January 15, 2015. 

Moore had high praise for her 24-year-old co-star, Kristen Stewart, in a recent interview with IndieWire.

"You know, I'm not surprised by Kristen at all," Julianne shared about the questions if Kristen surprised her with her acting chops. "And people keep asking me that question, but they don't know that I've known Kristen since she was 12 years old. So she made a movie with my husband when she was 12, and I can remember when he was casting it, and he's like: "This is the girl I want to work with. This girl is extraordinary. She is going to be a huge star, she's a major talent." So there was never any question in my mind that Kristen wouldn't - I always knew how special she was."

Julianne added, "What was a pleasure for me, working with her, is to witness somebody that's got that enormous reserve of emotion at their fingertips. It's just right there. She has a tremendous amount of feeling. It was a joy to sit there and watch her access it. There were times when I was working with her - when I could see her, her face would flush. I'd see the feeling in her eyes. I also - you know she's only 24 years old, and she's a young person. But she has a remarkable degree of maturity and compassion."

Still Alice was written and directed by Richard Glatzer and Wash Westmoreland is and based on Lisa Genova's 2007 bestselling novel of the same name. The film stars Julianne Moore in the role of Alice, a Columbia cognitive psychologist diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's disease. Alec Baldwin plays her husband John. Kristen Stewart, Kate Bosworth, and Hunter Parrish play her children Lydia, Anna, and Tom.
