25 Under 25: Hollywood's Hottest Young Stars

Kristen Stewart
Age: 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

Robert Pattinson
Age: 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
