A sequel of the film, called Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle, was released in 2003, with Diaz, Barrymore and Liu taking back their roles.

Stewart recently turned queer heads when she was photographed staring lovingly into the eyes of Cate Blanchett.

The actors were snapped together when they sitting on the Cannes Film Festival jury, along with other stars like LĆ©a Seydoux and director Ava DuVernay.

Stewart was photographedĀ when she repeatedly gazed ā€“ or ā€œgayzed,ā€ according to fans ā€“ at Blanchett, sending them into a tailspin of ecstasy.

The former Twilight starĀ came out in 2015, when she confirmedĀ she was ā€œnot hidingā€ her relationship with then-girlfriendĀ Alicia Cargile.

Stewart, who is currently dating Stella Maxwell,Ā said on Saturday Night Live last yearthat she was ā€œlike, so gayā€.
