THE RUNAWAYS - More Movie Details Revealed







Paul Cashmere from Undercover.com.au is reporting:

Twilight star Kristen Stewart will play Joan Jett in an upcoming movie about the 70’s all-girl rock band THE RUNAWAYS.

Florida Sigismondi is directing the movie. Florida’s credits include video clips from MARILYN MANSON ('The Beautiful People'), DAVID BOWIE ('Little Wonder') and SHERYL CROW ('Anything But Down').

The Runaways were one of the early manufactured groups. Kim Fowley who recruited Jett, Sandy West, Cherrie Currie and Lita Ford put them together.

The movie has an all-star cast with Dakota Fanning (I Am Sam, War of the Worlds) as Currie, Alessandra Torresani (ER, Malcolm In The Middle) as Ford and Stella Maeve (Law & Order) as West.

The Runways formed in 1975 and broke up in 1979. They were best known for their 1976 hit ‘Cherry Bomb’.
