It seems that Kristen Stewart will be playing Joan Jett in the rock and roll biopic, “The Runaways.”  I think this is the role that Kristen was so excited about but wouldn’t mention.  To read more, click here!

“The film will revolve around Jett and Currie and follow them from the band’s meteoric rise as teenagers to their dissolution and disillusionment.

The movie is eyeing a 2009 start and will work around Stewart’s commitments to the two “Twilight” sequels. The first one, “New Moon,” is expected to shoot sometime in first-quarter 2009, with Stewart reprising her role as Bella, the human who falls for a vampire.”
