Cast News: The Runaways

Collider has been given The Runaways: Featurette and also 7 clips from the movie!

MTV has a new interview with Kristen and Dakota whether they would want to live as rock stars rather than a movie star. Kristen Stewart, Dakota Fanning Leave ‘Runaways’ Rocking On the Screen

As Kristen’s fans are well aware, the girl knows her music. Remember that Minor Threat T-shirt she wore to Comic-Con ’09? Or when she was spotted with the rest of the “Twilight” cast at the Kings of Leon show? Keeping all that in mind, we had to ask the big question: If she could trade places with any rock star for a single day, who would it be?

“Joan!” Stewart shot back, without hesitation. “It depends on what period of life, I suppose. But on Joan and Cherie’s best day? Oh my God, I would definitely go with that!”

MTV has The Runaways: Cherry Bomb Music Video!

IESB.net and HitFix managed to snag interviews from these 2 starlets!

Q: What was it like for you guys to get into playing Joan Jett and Cherie Currie? Kristen, you and Joan seem to have a similar energy, but Dakota, you seem so different from Cherie Currie. How was it to portray these women?

Dakota: I think it’s a huge departure from other roles that I’ve played, and me, in real life. It’s obviously very different from things that I’ve done before, and it will be different for people to see, but I like that. I like surprising people with different things that I can do. That’s what I love to do. And, I hope to do more roles like this, in the future.

Kristen: Me and Joan really do understand each other, and that’s a rare thing. Connection is not something that’s common, or easy to describe. But, I really actually think that we both have a lot of idiosyncracies and ticks that are really different. I don’t have her little things that she does. And, I also think that, especially based on when I did this movie and how much time I had to think about doing the movie before I went to go make it, I’ve done a lot of press within that time and I was sort of wearing her. People projected that onto me, a little bit. I really do feel like it was an easy thing to step into, and it wasn’t a huge departure, but I do feel a little bit like I was just in that head space and projected that a little bit.

Q: Is it wonderful to have two people still alive who you can refer to for your characters or is it easier to play original characters?

Fanning: I think it’s amazing when you have the actual people there.  It’s like the ultimate. I think with all characters if they were a real person you could talk to it would be amazing. When you are actually living someone’s life over for them again, it has to be so surreal and you want them to be involved as they want to be and, luckily, they wanted to be involved as we wanted them to be.

Stewart: Yeah, yeah.

Kristen Stewart has just recently appeared on the Jay Leno Show to promote ‘The Runaways’!

Way to go, KStew! :D

    WOW! I love Kristen’s dress on Leno!

    I hope she stays the way she is. Being genuine and not fake even with all her awkwardness. She’s charming that way.

    Haha@ ‘cool slouch’!

    I can’t wait for The Runaways -I love watching biopics – hopefully it’ll be the nasty & dirty truth. Cos real people are suppose to be that way and it’s great to see how they live and learn.
