Saoirse Ronan Talks “The Host”, Fashion, and Guys with Xpose

Xpose had the chance to catch up with Saoirse Ronan (aka Melanie Stryder and Wanderer) while she was at the red carpet opening event for The Adventures of Tintin in Ireland. Xpose interviewed her, asking about her love life (which she had no intention talking about), her fashion sense, as well as her role in The Host.
When asked about her upcoming films, Saoirse mentioned that she will start filming The Host next year. She confirmed that she will indeed be playing the part of both Melanie and Wanderer. With the success of Stephenie Meyer’s first films from The Twilight Saga, Saoirse is a little nervous about following in Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner’s footsteps. Unlike the filming of the Saga, Stephenie Meyer will be more hands on with filming The Host.

Oh, no worries Saoirse! She is an extremely talented actress and should have no worries in filming The Host. What a lot of Stephenie Meyer fans need to understand is that The Twilight Saga and The Host are two completely different stories and should, in no way , be compared to the other. It shouldn’t have to come down to “Is she going to be as good as Kristen Stewart as Bella?” No. Melanie Stryder and Bella Swan are two completely different characters in two completely different world. The only thing they have in common is the author who created them.
I don’t mean to rant on about that, but she should not have to think she needs to live up to the success of the other films. This is a whole new world that The Host fans get to enjoy seeing come to life. I am both a Twilight and Host fan, but I know where to cross the line when it comes to each film.
What are your thoughts?

Yay! I love her!
I totally agree with not comparing the two stories and I’m particularly glad that Stephenie is going to be more hands on with The Host…take Rowling’s example there and “keep your power”
