Kristen Stewart

Kristen Stewart has paid tribute to her former co-star James Gandolfini.

The actress teams up with the late star in drama Welcome To The Rileys back in 2011 - it would be the only project that they would work on together.

Stewart played a stripper in the movie while Gandolfini played a grieving father who tries to take her away from this world.

Speaking to Entertainment Weekly Stewart said: "When I heard of James' passing I was in New Orleans, where we met shooting, and every memory flooded back and gutted me.

"I'll hold that time near to me forever. He was immeasurably great. My heart goes out to his beloved family."

Welcome To The Rileys was directed by Jake Scott and was a movie that saw both Stewart and Gandolfini at their dramatic best.

Gandolfini died of a heart attack last week at the age of fifty one. His funeral will be held tomorrow in New York.
