'I love the effect she has on people,' KStew tells MTV News.By Kara Warner, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Charlize Theron in "Snow White and the Huntsman" Photo: Universal Despite their obvious differences both onscreen and off, Kristen Stewart and Charlize Theron have formed a bond during the filming of "Snow White and the Huntsman" and even more so during the current press tour in support of the film. When MTV News caught up with Stewart recently, we asked her to compare the familiar scenario of doing interviews with her longtime "Twilight" co-stars Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner versus her new castmate, the lovely Ms. Theron. "When Rob, Taylor and I do interviews together, they usually don't actually ask us anything. We just get to hang out and people like to watch that," Stewart said with a laugh. "It's fine, because I like hanging out with those guys, but it is weird. With Charlize, it's been great, because we're so proud of the movie and we actually only worked together for three days, so we got to know each other probably more or at least on a certain level during press, and it's been nice. It's been fun." Stewart said she especially admires Theron's ability to light up a room with her energy and humor. "Some people intimidate you. Some people's energy is so big you feel like you don't fit in the room, but with her, I really appreciate how different we are. I love the effect she has on people," Stewart said. "I find it hilarious. I love watching it happen. I do not have that. Maybe I have something else, but it's definitely not as visceral. Also, she's really hilarious," she added, noting that the Oscar winner uses the more colorful swear words with particular aplomb. "[She] puts me to shame, to be honest," Stewart said.

'I've got a lot of insight into who he was as a human being and as a man and, dare I say it, scholar,' actor tells MTV News.Kara Warner By Kara Warner ODB and Michael K. Williams Photo: Getty Images Crafting the perfect Hollywood biopic is often very tricky business. More often than not, you are dealing with the legacy of a star who passed away too soon, the emotional impact a big-screen adaptation might have on the subject's family, as well as casting the perfect actor to bring an iconic individual to life. The filmmakers behind the Ol' Dirty Bastard biopic "Dirty White Boy" are off to a very positive start with their film in that they have enlisted celebrated and very capable actor Michael K. Williams to tackle the title role. MTV News recently caught up with Williams, most well-known for his roles as Chalky White on "Boardwalk Empire" and the haunting, shotgun-toting Omar Little on "The Wire," and Williams had a lot to say about the research and groundwork he's putting into his preparation for the role of the Wu Tang Clan lyricist (born Russell Tyrone Jones). "I am doing a lot of research on Russell," Williams said recently on the set of the upcoming short film "They Die by Dawn." "I had the pleasure of meeting his beautiful mother, Ms. Cherry. We sat down for, like, three hours, and she told me the most amazing stuff about her son and a lot of things that the public didn't know. I've been talking to people who know him well ... people who knew him when the cameras weren't rolling," Williams said. "I've got a lot of insight into who he was as a human being and as a man and, dare I say it, scholar. The dude was quite smart. You have to be able to recite mathematics and be 5 percent of god body — you can't play with that. You have to know what you're talking about. It's a lot of studying, a lot of knowledge." Williams went on to say that the film will be mostly a straight drama, but will also include plenty of ODB's more colorful personality quirks. "It's drama, but if you know ODB, there's going to be some comedy, but we're not playing to that. It's going to be shot as a straight piece, no buffoonery, for lack of a better word," Williams said. "It's only going to cover the last two years of his life when he was released from prison to the day he died. It's just an insight into what he struggled with in the public eye." "Dirty White Boy" is being produced by Lars Knudsen and Jay Van Hoy ("Beginners") and the screenplay is by Brent Hoff, who worked at VH1, where he first met ODB and later became his manager.
