MOVIEFONE: 25 UNDER 25 - HOLLYWOOD’S HOTTEST YOUNG STARS
Moviefone has their third annual list of the 25 hottest actors under the age of 25. Rob Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and Dakota Fanning all made the cut this year:
Robert PattinsonAge: 23
Years on List: 2007, 2008, 2009
What He’s Done: You don’t have to be a ‘Twi’-hard to appreciate R-Pattz’s smoldering gaze in the first film adaptation of the teen-vampire love story ‘Twilight.’
What’s Next: The ‘Twilight’ saga continues; ‘New Moon’ will hit theaters later this year, and ‘Eclipse’ — already filming — is set for summer 2010. If that’s not enough Pattinson for you, also look for him in the 2010 indie romantic drama ‘Remember Me.’
Industry Buzz: “Pattinson could have a tidy career for the next few years as a hunky British heartthrob … Don’t hold the ‘Twilight Saga’ against him; he’s willing to play against type with roles like Salvador Dali in ‘Little Ashes,’ and the willingness to take roles like that means he could be working for a long time to come.” — Matt Atchity, Rotten Tomatoes
Kristen StewartAge: 19
Years on List: 2007, 2008
What She’s Done: She’d already garnered acclaim as a child actor (’Panic Room’) and an extraordinarily mature teen actor (’Into the Wild’) before being cast in the career-changing role of the headstrong, lovestruck Bella Swan in ‘Twilight’ and its future sequels.
What’s Next: She’ll play Joan Jett in the biopic ‘The Runaways’ and hopes to be able to do her own singing in the movie. And then, of course, there are enough ‘Twilight’ sequels to keep her going until she’s almost too old for this list.
Industry Buzz: “I have no fear that Stewart’s career will outlive ‘Twilight.’ Her resume is already packed with talented directors (David Fincher, Sean Penn) and character-rich indies (’Undertow’). Stewart has haunting features that make her perfect for vampire films, but so much more. ‘Twilight’ has given her fame and fortune; what the 19-year-old does with it will be the real challenge.” — Dave McCoy, MSN Movies

Rob, Kristen, Taylor and Dakota all very much belong on this list. I’m glad to see them recognized.

I noticed Taylor is on the list to, but they were not as positive about his future as they were about the others. I did find it amusing that they thought he should do some Indi since his costars Rob and Kristen are so into them. I think he will do fine and the indi thing may be a good idea I’m sure that Rob and Kristen could help lol.
don’t you hate it how they don’t even MENTION people like Jackson Rathbone or Kellan Lutz??!! i mean they’re doing other movies as well and stuff!!!!! and it’s not like they aren’t good actors! oh wait. just remembered that they might be over 25… :# woops…
I noticed that too Kelly about Taylor. I don’t understand why not because most of the actors and actresses have been in the Twilight movie’s have a bright future to me. If they don’t have one already. Taylor to me has the dedication to become bigger and do greater things throughout his career. I am sure as time goes on, we will see more and more the Twilight stars ability. Congrats to them makin the list though!
What about Kellan and Jackson.Taylor is going to do fine.Rob will retire soon I know it.
That’s cool. All of them are very talented actors.
