Biography

Personal life

Stewart was born in Colorado to John Stewart, a TV producer who works for FOX television; she has an older brother, Cameron. She is an avid surfer and lives with her family in Los Angeles.

Career

Stewart had a minor role in the 1999 made-for-television film, The Thirteenth Year
, and subsequently appeared in the independent film, The Safety of Objects. Her first major role was in the 2002 thriller, Panic Room
. Stewart was cast in the role partly because producers throught that she bore a striking resemblance to Jodie Foster, who played her mother in the film.

After Panic Room's success, Stewart was cast in another thriller, Cold Creek Manor
, playing the daughter of Dennis Quaid and Sharon Stone's characters, although this film generally failed at the box office. Her first starring role followed, in the children's action-comedy, Catch That Kid
, opposite Max Thieriot and Corbin Bleu. To date, Stewart’s most critically acclaimed role may be in the television film, Speak
(2004). Stewart, only 13 at the time of filming, plays a high school freshman who is raped and has to deal with emotional turmoil. The role was particularly difficult because the main character has very few speaking lines. Stewart has received great praise for her portrayal of teenage emotions.

Most recently, Stewart appeared in the science fiction-adventure film, Zathura
, which was released in November 2005 to positive reviews. Her upcoming film roles include In the Land of Women, a romantic comedy starring Meg Ryan, and The Messengers, a suspense-thriller about a haunted house.
