Catherine Hardwicke Talks About "Red Riding Hood!" See Why She Chose to Infuse New Blood to a Beloved Classic!

I enjoyed meeting Catherine Hardwicke, the female director who could open a blockbuster! That title, of course, came from her $69.6 million opening for "Twilight."

Now, she's back with a brand new film, "Red Riding Hood!" And I think you will enjoy it!

In this interview, we talked about:

  • Why she decided to infuse new blood to the fairy tale?
  • How did she pick her stars? Shiloh Fernandez was one of the contenders for the Edward Cullen role which eventually went to Rob Pattinson.
  • The sexual awakening and teenage alienation themes in her films, from "Thirteen" to "Twilight."

HAVE FUN!
