Rivera and Herrold first connected on Instagram in 2020 after Herrold’s show premiered. Feeling isolated during the pandemic, Herrold was responding to congratulatory messages and decided to reply to Rivera, hoping to avoid unwanted attention. She told W Magazine that his message seemed safe, so she simply said, “Thank you.” To her surprise, she woke up to a series of video messages.

Michael Corleone experienced the biggest change of anyone in the family throughout the movie, ultimately becoming the ruthless head of the Corleone Mafia. The contrast between the sacred setting of his godson’s baptism and the violent acts he orchestrated outside the church was brilliantly portrayed. This masterful editing and direction created one of the most iconic and powerful climaxes in film history.

Despite wanting to reimagine the films, Kristen Stewart emphasized her appreciation for the original directors – Catherine Hardwicke, Chris Weitz, and others. She praised their unique and authentic style, noting they brought a raw, present energy to the movies because they were still early in their careers. While a straight remake isn’t her goal, she jokingly suggested someone give her the funding and rights to tell the story from Edward’s perspective.

The news isn’t surprising, considering Congress recently approved President Trump’s budget cuts, which took $1.1 billion away from public media.
