Alicia Vikander pays tribute to Kristen Stewart’s veil
Speaking to EW, show star Alicia Vikander discussed Stewart’s short cameo at the end.
In addition to describing Stewart’s post as “cool”, Vikander also spoke of Stewart’s “happy energy”:
“I remember we talked about the furniture! I adore her, she’s so cool. I admire the work she did, especially the work she did with Olivier. It was great that she came and wanted to be a part of this little movie. She brought a happy energy, and that goes along with it.” With the sense that Olivier in general creates, where he is in his career. He brings very talented and inspiring people to whom he is closest friends. It is a common and friendly atmosphere every day.”
