It looks like Kristen Stewart will be getting cozy with Jennifer Lawrence's boyfriend Nicholas Hoult. The 23-year-old "On the Road" star is set to star opposite the 24-year-old British hunk in the upcoming futuristic love story "Equals."

In a recent interview with The Associated Press, the brunette explained why she is so nervous to take on the part.

On Monday, January 14th she admitted, "I can't believe I agreed to do it," adding, "I'm terrified of it. Though it's a movie with a really basic concept, it's overtly ambitious."

Kristen Stewart went on to say, "It's a love story of epic, epic, epic proportion," adding, "I'm scared."

According to the publication, "Equals" is an adaptation of the 1956 film "1984," which was based on George Orwell's classic novel about rebellion in a futuristic society.

The project is set to begin filming later this year with director Drake Doremus, attached to the movie.

The "Twilight" star explained, "I trust Drake's process and I know we will do something really natural and real," adding, "But I told Drake, 'Don't expect that I am going to be able to do this. It's too hard.' But he wouldn't take 'no' for an answer.

"I've given directors disclaimers before, but never this much."

Despite her hesitations Doremus has complete confidence in Kristen Stewart. He told The Associated Press, "It became evident in my head that Nick and Kristen would have great chemistry."

However, Academy Award winning actress Jennifer Lawrence was first to read the script and was brought to tears but the 23-year-old just couldn't see herself in the role.

Lawrence and Hoult rekindled their romance back in July on "The X-Men: Days of Future Past" set, the costars had previously split in January following two years of dating.

Meanwhile, Kristen Stewart and costar Robert Pattinson went through a brutal break up back in May.

The starlets who are both the faces of big franchise movies were rumored to be feuding back in March 2012, but the leading ladies denied the reports and in turn spent some time together while at the Toronto Film Festival in September.

Stewart spoke to MTV News about her and "The Hunger Games" star's fun night. She said, "She's so cool," adding, "I was a lot younger than her when I first sort of entered this world of franchise land, and I don't know, I guess we sort of both went, 'Wow, this is so weird.' We were actually sitting in a corner with [Harry Potter star] Emma Watson as well, the three of us.

"We were like, 'Wow, this is strange. This is really cool.'"

She went on to say, "I think people assume that actresses don't want to [be friends]," adding, "It was kind of a great feeling, to be honest. I was like, 'This is kind of just awesome.'"
