BEYOND THE ECLIPSE

She was twelve years old when David Fincher locked her in a steel room with Jodie Foster - and the world first noticed her stillness.

Six years later, Kristen Stewart became the most photographed young woman on Earth: the reluctant face of a billion-dollar vampire saga she never auditioned to carry.

Beyond the Eclipse traces the full, unvarnished arc of her life - the child actor who backed into fame almost by accident, the tabloid scandal that turned one twenty-two-year-old's mistake into a global referendum on her character, and the decade of fierce, deliberate reinvention that followed.

Inside this book:

• The Hollywood childhood that shaped a serious young craftsperson, years before Twilight


• The five-film phenomenon that made her one of the highest-paid actresses in the world - and cost her almost everything else


• The 2012 scandal that turned a private mistake into an international referendum


• Her César Award-winning reinvention alongside directors like Olivier Assayas, Pablo Larraín, and David Cronenberg


• Coming out on Saturday Night Live, her Oscar-nominated turn as Princess Diana in Spencer, and her 2025 leap into directing

Drawing on two decades of interviews, criticism, and public record, this is a story about what it costs to grow up in public - and what it takes to write your own next chapter anyway.

For anyone who has ever had to build a self in public, and find a way to keep it honest.
