Ben Affleck wants 'terrific' K-Stew to star with him in romance

Remember earlier this week, when we reported Kristen Stewart was "desperate" for a job, now that the "Twilight" saga has wrapped up? Well, no more nights of tossing and turning, worrying about K-Stew for you and I, because Kristen's apparently lining up her next role acting across Ben Affleck, star and director of "Argo." Said Affleck, "I’m hesitant to get into casting stuff because I don't know what's finished … but she's terrific and hopefully it will work out." High praise indeed! Stewart’s role would be that of a young woman who Affleck, a grafter, meets in his travels in a romantic comedy called "Focus." (Sounds like "Paper Moon" meets "New Moon" with a touch of Doug Hutchinson age difference thrown in.)  [Source]
