“Twilight” actress Kristen Stewart claimed the film was a “gay movie” despite only featuring heterosexual couples.

In an interview with Variety published Thursday, Stewart, 33, who came out as gay in 2017 while hosting “Saturday Night Live,” reflected on the vampire fantasy romance film 15 years later. The film was based on author Stephanie Meyer’s books.

“It’s such a gay movie,” she claimed. “I mean, Jesus Christ, Taylor [Lautner] and Rob[ert Pattinson] and me, and it’s so hidden and not okay.”

The “Love Lies Bleeding” actress continued, “I mean, a Mormon woman wrote this book. It’s all about oppression, about wanting what’s going to destroy you.”

Furthermore, Stewart, who played the character of Bella Swan in the film series, said the movie has “a very Gothic, gay inclination” that she loves.

According to Forbes, the franchise, which became a cultural phenomenon, grossed more than $3 billion at the worldwide box office. The franchise consisted of five films.

During her interview, Stewart also spoke about hiding her sexuality to protect her career.

“Because I’m an actor, I want people to like me, and I want certain parts,” she explained. “I have lots of different experiences that shape who I am that are very, very far from binary.”

Additionally, she said she got “good at the heteronormative quality.”

“I play that role well. It comes from a somewhat real place — it’s not fake. But it’s f**ked up that if I was gayer, it wouldn’t be the case,” she said.

Stewart, who once dated her “Twilight” co-star Robert Pattinson, spoke about others questioning her sexual identity while being in the public eye.

“For so long, I was like, ‘Why are you trying to skewer me? Why are you trying to ruin my life? I’m a kid, and I don’t really know myself well enough yet,’” she revealed.

Stewart added, “The idea of people going, ‘I knew that you were a little queer kid forever.’ I’m like, ‘Oh, yeah? Well, you should honestly have seen me f**k my first boyfriend.’”
