Kristen Stewart In Talks To Star With Ben Affleck in ‘Focus’

 

According to Variety, Kristen Stewart is in talks to star in the lead female role in Focus with Academy Award winner Ben Affleck.

Warner Bros. has brought its female lead into “Focus,” as Kristen Stewart is in talks to co-star with Ben Affleck in the con artist movie that “Crazy Stupid Love” helmers Glenn Ficarra and John Requa will direct from their own script.
Denise DiNovi will produce the story of a veteran grifter who partners with a girl who’s new to the life.
Warners has been looking to launch this project for some time, eyeballing Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone to reteam with their “Crazy Stupid Love” helmers. When those plans fell through, the studio moved quickly, grabbing Affleck as he was deciding on his follow up to “Argo.”

About the film (via Collider)

“veteran con man who gets involved with a newcomer to the grifter business. They get involved romantically but that becomes perilous in a business where they lie and cheat for a living. The complications of the encounter haunt them when they meet up again in the future.”
